You could always comment on the subject of the thread, of course
You mean who paid what for the Ricoh stadium isn't the subject??

tend to go for salt and vinegar to be fair - more old school

Apparently it has become vital to establish exactly what Arena 2001 Ltd spent money on for some reason.
But who paid for them and where do they show on the accountstend to go for salt and vinegar to be fair - more old school

But who paid for them and where do they show on the accounts
well they were sourced via agents with contacts in the far east who had them couriered the raw ingredients to the UK in a diplomatic bag, where the salt & vinegar crisps were created in a secret location not far from here, payment was arranged through a complicated off shore arrangement after the local banks refused to provide a variable low interest line of credit. Once the funds had been exchanged from dollars to euros to GB £ the loan was drawn down on the basis of crisps consumed and the loan itself secured by a hedge of funds based in the Cayman Isles due to the high risk of the assets disappearing.

That clears up my question of what happened to the £6.8m anyway. Thanks OSB.

Nah, he won't everyone is saying we need at least 25k.
We would have a 25k stadium rocking in the Prem.
It's the 10-15k stadium that "most" bar the "odd" few are concerned about

Agree with this. Far more important on a thread about BPA. That we discuss capacity.
That if it is 10-15k that planning permission is also agreed at that time for the 25k extension.
Not that "it can be done some time in the future"
Why are the club not applying for this planning permission. Sobthst they can get the fans in their side for once.
If there is a political embargo it will all come out at the planning permission stage.

I swear this board is full of train spotters.
Let's speak numbers, while ignoring the narratives being spun by the various protagonists, and the positions being taken.

Id say most are concerned we haven't a stadium at all after next season.
They are not applying for planning permission as they will not build a new ground at the BPA.

That's the question that should be asked. At the the SCG or even better the trust take up Mr Fishers offer to meet. Ask why planning permission for up to 25k cannot be requested as a show of faith to the fans that the club is genuine that it wants to build at the BPA.

Or let's discuss accounts from over 10 years ago that are nothing to do with BPA. On a BPA thread.

As an aside, big fan of the Tesco finest Creamy Brie and Cranberry they're selling for £1 a packet atm.

Ooh, never tried them, or indeed heard of them. They sound nice.
Might take a punt. Take my pound out of the Save Coventry City fund and take the plunge on a bag of these.

Does the Millennium have a built in hotel, casino and exhibition hall?

No its favourite crisp flavours. :woot:You mean who paid what for the Ricoh stadium isn't the subject??

It has several bars conference suites and also the very small matter of a huge retractable roof
When did you last go to a game?
Also, don't forget the River Taft and the 1,350 foundation piles that were needed in Cardiff.

It also has the shitest, uneven playing surface too. Top quality turf but pallettised takes weeks for it to knit back together after it's been taken up for any big event..ie- motocross, Concert, etc.

That's River Taff.

So it doesn't have a hotel, exhibition hall or casino?
When did you last travel to an away game? And Northampton doesn't count :bucktooth:
Serous question. Why do you have to keep bringing up games people go to? Not as though you are an ever present yourself is it.

No, but it does have a sliding roof and a capacity of over twice that of the Ricoh Arena. The construction costs presumably also include the cost of demolishing Cardiff Arms Park and other neighbouring buildings.
The costs attributed to the building of the Ricoh do seem high, but I suspect the subterranean element cost a fortune (to no benefit of the club or the council really).

Well just as grey is the new black, the Butts is the new Ricoh don't you know.
It's the latest fashion. Climb aboard before it disappears in a cloud of smoke up its own arsehole.

I don't I ask one person who constantly says I avoid answering questions but oddly I've asked 17 times now with no response.

I don't know who you are asking. But I do know that you are not answering questions back as normal
