So if we were a sporting franchise and were looking for a stadium, what cost would you have calculated for the Ricoh, ie if you wanted the owners to give you the cash would you have said £6.5m gets you a stadium on a 240 year lease

The commercial value of the transaction is what it cost WASPS ie £19million,I think you are missing the point as SISU quote this isn't that the true price as surely if they thought that the real transaction price of getting a stadium on a 240 yer lease was as low as £5.5m they would have quoted...

ACL on the new lease term had later been independently valued at nearly £50million. The £19million deal included just £1mIllion for the lease extension, £2.77million each for the council and Higgs’ charity’s shares in ACL, and paying off the council’s loan. Told you that its not the accounting...

31 goals in the last 7 seasons, Marcus has managed 35 in the same period

Any chance of a brief update as been very busy the last few days, it seems like SISU have a stronger legal case than expected

a few opening speeches, then drinks, followed by a game of "how big a Cov fan are you", more drinks, reminiscing over the old days, "never got involved in trouble but do you remember Villa away in 93", a few shots before finishing off with a group elephant dance - can't wait

Its quite refreshing to have a proper squad building process without the panic loan signings. I expect Robins to go for 1 or 2 loan signings but no more

Kwame Thomas is getting high ratings here based on 2 goals scored in his professional career, recognise that he is a young lad but not as optimistic as others

Thanks for that, is the team known yet as George will pick who he wants to go with the club has no involvement with that negotiation unlike a transfer

Who are "they"

He presented the prizes at our football presentation night, that's where that comes from, surprised he's staying, looking forward to Grendel having a meltdown

Won't be Haynes, he had offers from championship clubs presume that they are paying more

I know OSB58 and others would challenge this but the £5m is not the true purchase price of the Ricoh, it might be the legal purchase price but the Ricoh did come with a large loan £14m amongst other assets / liabilities. It was still a bargain at £19m bujt isn't that the true commercial cost to...

What cloour kit did Morris Rangers wear ? My nephew was in his class at junior school and I watched my nephew play a few times where were Morris rangers based.

I recognise Beavon is not an out and out striker and won player of the year but it would still be a concern that even in 2 promotion winning sides where he was an ever present he scored less than 10 in both seasons.

Remember Best getting a last minute equaliser v M'boro we had been thoroughly outplayed but sneaked a point, just not a natural goal scorer, in the 7anda half seasons since he left us he's managed just 21 goals, about 3 a season
