And this would benefit us how, exactly? Those ***** tried to steal Ashton Gate in ‘82. As far as I am concerned they can **** off & play on The Downs.

Pedants

What they could do is, form a new company with the rugby club where they both have ownership of 50% of the new company and rugby ground. They could then have a clause where, if either of the partners go into administration the other partner could buy out the other for a figure of what? shall we say £10.000, that would seem a fair price. Then the other partner could own the ground and charge the cuckoos a rent for it's use. The rugby club would then be seen as the heroes, saving BRFC from going out of business completely and into oblivion. And everyone is happy, as it's a fair thing to do, Hahahahahahahahaha.

Coming for us mind!

A million times this.

Unfortunately not, especially since the red and white shorts at Bramall Lane. It's a shame though because anyone who follows Kell knows he doesn't actually care about football, he only did it in honour of his uncle. Personally I like to keep boxing and football entirely separate, I'll support any British boxer, and if they're from Sheffield then even better.

Warning you 15ers not to travel or drive is doing the rest of us a public service. You shouldn’t breed either - especially with your sister.

Yeah, I remember Rovers beating Plymouth at home in February 2014 (maybe even March) and listening to all the divs bang on how "a new era is coming" and how we were about to swap divisions with them as they were chasing a Play Off place. Another grand prediction they got spectacularly wrong Idiots. Apparently our away support is shit, whilst they think they're the Leeds Utd of the lower divisions...keeping grateful clubs in business with their massive away followings. Just saying....

Pedantic much

There is the small matter of the ground being used by the egg chasers. A ground share between 3 clubs ain’t going to work so no idea why it keeps cropping up?

Some of them are predicting they will take 200 to MK today. Flashback to this....

Surely with the level of debt accruing, and counteract that against the assets of the business (which is possibly becoming negligible). Without a significant level of fresh investment, I really can't see this business as a 'Going Concern'. One question, does the proposed Accounts include provision for interest? As this would obviously not impinge on cashflow. Talking of cashflow, like any Football Club their Accountant must be eating/drinking and sleeping cashflow analysis (no real difference to any SME)

The Boy With The Thorn In His Side....The Smiths

The AJIB share price is down 10% in the last two months after a 25% fall in profits during 2017. One investment analyst described the bank's capital investment strategy as "milking the business". They usually distribute most of their profit as dividend so the Al Qadi family income from this source will be down 25% this year. Just the right time to spend half your income propping up a third tier football club and the other half building a club house and some football pitches on a piece of scrubland at Almondsbury.

So they welched on the debt?

Oi I’m from kingswood and it’s easily 50/50 round here. You’re right mind they’re thick as **** when chatting to them. The levels of delusion is unbelievable

Hi Newbie. We haven’t had a year where we have spent most of the season mid table League 1 for ages. In 2013/14 we’d been relegated back to League 1 after one of the most depressing seasons in my memory. We sold approx 8.5k STs that year iirc (unlike the Gas who only managed to shift 5k after promotion). We spent the first 6 months of that season in the bottom 4, even finding ourselves bottom at Christmas and we averaged 12k. Yes, we had a reduced capacity that season of around 12.5k/13k including whatever allocation away fans were given. Basically the home sections of AG were pretty much full for most of the season. I’m surprised you don’t remember this? Neither us or Rovers have a big fan base considering the size of a City like Bristol. Looking at the historical attendances of the two clubs however you have to conclude that either more Bristolians are City fans or City fans in general are more loyal and more willing to put money into our club than Rovers fans do. I don’t buy the facilities argument. The old Ashton Gate was hardly an example of modern day luxury. Rovers fans bang on about how they’re ‘real’ fans whilst we are ‘plastic’....it’s bollocks. When push comes to shove the whole facilities thing is just excuses not to go and watch the team they say they love on a Saturday afternoon. Lets not forget all the ‘if they play on the road we’ll watch from the pavements’ nonsense they were spouting when the UWE went down the bog. If ‘loyal’ Gasheads won’t show up unless they’ve got a nice comfy seat to sit in Ive got to say that sounds pretty ‘plastic’ to me.
