I think that's what I'd vote for, personally. I can't understand how a couple of years on from the £9bn Olympics there isn't any desire or capability to keep that kind of facility. Where's the "legacy"?

Don't get me wrong, I'm not a swimmer myself, but we're as far from the sea as you can get, and we've had a well-established club here for a long time that has given a lot of local kids a good grounding in the sport. Not everyone likes football.

And I like the Elephant too. I thought it was listed, in truth.

Anyway, sorry, OT - I know.

They were shown to one of the conference rooms with a group of other guests, then were seen walking them round the pitch, probably telling them we used to play here, the plot thickens ?

I'll believe it when it happens, was told by someone who works at the Ricoh, they took drinks into the room, and they were all sat round the table,

They went out onto the pitch because the conference room was too dark and dingy. Fisher, "why can't we play here, that would shaft ACL!"

Was in the casino tonight and the waitress was talking to someone at the table about it, I'm the same about these rumours, won't believe it until it happens, just passing on what I heard,

Appreciate it mate and I hope you won. Taken enough off me over the years.

On a positive spin I don't see why a waitress on the casino would make it up or chat about something that didn't happen.

There's only ever one winner in there , should know when to walk away by now, I did ask her if it was true and she seemed pretty convinced, even if they are talking they'll be a long way to go yet I'd of thought

That's the thing. There isn't time. Season starts Saturday and Cardiff and Sheffield united are fast approaching. Luckily there is just enough time. I really want it done when the season starts and done 4 games in yes I want to still come home but it would just be a nonsense.

Like I've said before what would it be sixfields on the Tuesday and Ricoh on the Saturday. Just crazy.

Casino always wins. Take my advice as I have a sure fire certain way to beat the bookie/casino...... Don't bet a single penny.

If everyone in the uk didn't bet a single penny these evil bookmakers and casinos wouldn't exist. A bit like a football club without it's fans ironically.

Unfortunately we live in a world of greed and money. Just ask sisu.

Anyway gambling anonymous meeting over.

Nothing evil about a bit of gambling. Everything in moderation.

Don't care if we come back with one game of the season left as long as we come back.

I think you may be reading too much into my comments!

I mean, with one potential hurdle out of the way, there could be some movement. But I don't know for sure either way I'm afraid.

Well I think we all are going with Thursday 7th as we all know the monies will be decided and paid then.

We can then move on hopefully.

Sure you are interested to note TF and SW at Ricoh today? And ACL solictors are trying something sorted?

Keep saying I'm never going in there again, I'll win next time , makes you realise going in there what a great club we could be if we did actually own the whole thing, somebody needs to come in and buy the lot, it deserves a premiership team playing in it...... One day

If both sides are serious about us returning then hopefully they already have some sort preliminary deal agreed and ready to be signed after Thursday.
