His comment that "we'll be paying more annually to the Council then they get from the KC" made me chuckle as well, was meant to be a dig at us, but it will backfire as the SMC are responsible for generating a return, which they were doing right up until a certain someone took over the SMC.

what a set of filthy beggars they are.

Never was that phrase more apt.

Hudgell can't help himself can he? But when you devorce yourself from the petty one up man ship and look at the bigger picture as Pearson always says a strong Rovers is good income wise for us although it pains me to say it.
(Thats just me talking economics and nothing else

)

However if they were expecting a £500,000 advance from the caterers in this years income projections, Mr Allam (sorry the good Doctor Allam) stated last Friday that the £1m was only a loan and they were now paying it back, coupled with falling gates, falling secondary spend, a regular loss of around £500,000, the loss now apparently likely on projected income from seats in the new stand etc. you can see why the Rovers Directors reviewed their positions before carrying on this year can't you? It looks like Timeshare Tony at any cost to me.

As Hutchie says Don't you walk out one morning and say "Doh!!! that first panels blue and hey guys where's the turnsiles" Strange!

Where did you get that info Wilf?

I heard grudge paid two xmas trees,three squidgy rabbits and a blue tortoise

If anyone actually wants to discuss the August Derby, the World Cup game, or the larger implications for Council involvement in sports projects then go right ahead. If not then the thread gets locked. Pointing and laughing at Rovers can be done on their board or the VT.

Dont worry, theyve gone done the temp golf stand style route to sort

He said in an interview with Simon Clarke of Look North when asked , "But you can understand the Hull fans feeling aggeived particularly after you gave £1m to Rovers"

" Hull Kr needed some cash and I felt after all I was doing to help Hull Fc I would help them. That was a loan and they are now paying it back"

Thats not transcript but roughly what was said.

Thanks for that,so it wasn't a gift after all,lol

Don't see any reason why the WC games would be moved, and I hope they're not.

Why?

If thier bid to host was based on the ground being re built, it aint

I dont know why Hudge is so bothered about this, thought his priority was banning the Cockerill

To be fair on the turnstyles, I am well informed that Hall, Welham, Eden and Caro were all pictured on the initial plans.

Thats classy mate.

Class

the main design floor the fans are up in arms about is that the stand faces the pitch

Because I want to go watch them, that's why.

This is why there are confidentiality clauses...



It seems the Allams can say what they like, the more trouble it causes the better.

Kin'ell, it was only last week you were moaning he does not come out and speak on issues. Then yesterday moaning you had to pay to hear what he had to say..... make your mind up.

It would appear that someone has been too busy fellating Tony Larvin rather than checking what they’ve been signing off!!

I just think its funny as f00k that theyve got an office block built in their ground right next to the pitch



To make it the wrong colour is even funnier!!!!





Oh and love the porthole windows theyve put in. The corporate folks get to use the windows in five minute turns then they have to stand back and let someone else have a go.









Is there another ground in SL or indeed sport that has an office block next to the pitch?

Must admit, it is rather amusing that they turn up for work every day and nobody noticed until now, and that they've even had a home game with 7,000 plus fans who didn't notice.

Since this has turned into a discussion about Rovers' stand with no relevance to us whatsoever...
