However, Sainsburys almost certainly won't be getting every single penny spent on their defence back. What will happen now is the parties will to and fro about the costs incurred and agree a proportion for which Rovers are liable, or go to a costs hearing. Rovers may have taken (very expensive) insurance out againsts costs too . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isn't there a Plan A where the multi-gazillionaire just dips his hand in his pocket and builds the ground then? You mean like Stephen Lansdown did for Bristol City FC?

pongo88 Posted March 17, 2016 Report Share Posted March 17, 2016 1 hour ago, 29AR said: Just in the interests of "dotting the i's and crossing the t's" it might not be. Whilst the Court of Appeal may have rejected permission to appeal to the Surpreme Court, you can appeal against that decision by asking the Supreme Court directly to consider the case. Why not go the whole hog and appeal to the European Court of Human Rights? If that fails, they could try the European Court of Justice.

Abingdon Red Posted March 17, 2016 Report Share Posted March 17, 2016 As funny as this is, I can't help think we probably dodged a bullet by not having to deal with Sainsbury, or similar, with our ground. If Ashton Vale had gone ahead they would've probably tried to pull the same stunt as supermarkets stopped building big stores around that time - though I'm sure our contract would've been watertight!

Sniper Posted March 17, 2016 Report Share Posted March 17, 2016 Another gem from asschat. Did anyone expect us to win? As for the other lot, **** em? Wael has said how important a stadium is regardless of today's result. They've been backed by billions and achieved **** all except for bouncing between League 1 and the Championship, and are just making the most of the little time that they have left above us. They've mocked DC and he's turned out to be excellent and a breath of fresh air, they've mocked the way we've been ran, and now we're being ran well, they've mocked the way we have no money, and now we do.They're scared and they don't want to admit it.

Then the likes of Hull City, Derby County, Sheffield Wednesday, Blackburn, QPR - you know, clubs that were in the Premier League, clubs trying to get back to the Premier League. You can only worry about so much at any one time. If it's any consolation to them, I'll worry about Rovers over the summer when we haven't got trying to beat clubs like Derby and Wednesday to worry about. Then we can worry about little old L2 clubs up the road Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think it would have mattered as SL would have funded it and got AV built where the gas were reliant on Sainsburys buying the land. Let's see if there new owners will stump up the cash although if they apply to develop the Mem for housing although will get nowhere near what they were getting from Sainsburys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
