Oh well there Is no hope then ,the other parties will never broker a resolution .This initiative carried by the trust ,SCG ,sponsors such as the Chamber of commerce raising funds through the business community would have been the best bet at a temporary resolution .

Leaving us all In a position to get behind the team,the club would have no landlord and ACL would have no deal with a party they appear to despise .

Naive certainly ,but not worthy of total cynisism.

I'm sick to the back teeth of all these 'I want to buy the club,' 'I want to put a bid together,' 'I may have backers' tales.

The first I want to hear of any such 'buying the club' statements is when the ink is dry on an agreement.


Talk is cheap and it seems there is a bit of a queue in terms of fantasy, wish list would be 'interested' parties these past 12 months or so.


Zzzzzzzzzzzz

Bit like a batsman, out for yet another duck, saying: "Glad I scored nought, I didn't want to ruin my average."!

Well I am shocked by this - truly shocked in the same way I am when my lottery numbers don't come up each week.

It will be in my house tonight! My wife will 'rollover' when I try it on after coming home from the pub! LOL!!! I'll be sleeping with the dog again*!!!

(*Not 5exually. I mean the wife will kick me out of bed again - I'm not into bestiality! Although I admit that I probably watched 'Animal Farm' for a little longer than I should, even after I realised it wasn't the screen version of the George Orwell classic.)

Ducks do count though don't they? If a batsman hits 100 on their first innings and 0 in their second, isn't their average 50??

I think Lamtara's inferring the cricket player continually achieves a 0 score WM. The guy scored a Duck at the outset and If anything scored a negative In his final analysis.
