Rich Posted August 13, 2018 Report Share Posted August 13, 2018 When he answered (if that's the correct terminology) the question about whether it was finances holding back the training ground, he replied that it was a combination of things, budget (set by himself), what the club wanted, what the club needed. Basically, the budget is too low to produce a training ground, but the family money is safe, as it could always go for housing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swede Posted August 13, 2018 Report Share Posted August 13, 2018 I thought the training ground pitch was looking good by sag standards. Just need a few more nettles and weeds to stop the ball rolling freely. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unan Posted August 13, 2018 Report Share Posted August 13, 2018 (edited) In response to them qualifying for later rounds of the league cup.. there's no point in not taking this one seriously. I recall a couple of great runs to the quarter finals back in the day that had Eastville rocking. Anyway, we have to go one better then the sh**e, don't we?

The Gasbuster Posted August 14, 2018 Report Share Posted August 14, 2018 (edited) Henbury Sag being called out, AGAIN ! "Just look at the stadium Henbury, you think thats before the game? No knowledge? Let's talk abour lack on knowledge shall we? HenburyGas - known on the forum to talk out of his arse 24/7. I even came to your shop once fella (where you did a poor job in replacing my hard drive but luckily for you I moved abroad shortly after) and you told me that "I'm in the know of what's going on with the stadium and I can't name names but now Sainsbury's have pulled out, we're still building the stadium with a certain shop that is similar to Lidl - also of German origin, is going to buy our land and we'll build our stadium." So how about you cut the crap & perhaps, why don't you give me some proof where I'm having a moan about something I have no knowledge about? Where have I done that? I'd love to see your evidence. In fact, I'd love to see any evidence of the constant nonsense you spout. Or wait, did your made up contact in your made up world tell you again?"

It's just like the times when Landsdown said it wasn't legally correct to let us know that we are looking to build a ground at Ashton Vale or when he did it again about the redevelopment of Ashton Gate or even the new training ground. Uncanny. I honestly have no idea how anyone, if they follow Rovers, football or not could listen to that or his interview on Sat and not instantly think "bullshitter". 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B block Posted August 14, 2018 Report Share Posted August 14, 2018 Come on own up, he has to be one of us Not content with a World Cup stadium it’s a shopping mall attached to it,, why stop there, space port perhaps They are also building a hotel and restaurants as well as the other stuff. Expect the money they will make from the facilities, will cover a lot of costs and bring money into the club in the long-term. I think that's what we are doing. Why appoint the CEO to do nothing?? Fans need to be more patient. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
