When asked about funding, I thought SH actually said it has to be feasible - I took that as being we have conditional funding. ISTM that to get the funding UWE either have to sell us the land or naming rights to the stadium. This seems different to what SH said in Feb, when he basically said there needs to be a bit of give & take between the two parties.UWE are obviously dealing with a different beast now compared with the last board, but do they really care about a stadium & are they rich enough to play hardball. Hopefully we will know in the next few weeks.He also said something I found strange - re building the stadium he said it was inevitable, whether it's us or someone else, could it be Wael could walk if we can't build UWE? As I think it would be another 10 years finding & approving another site if UWE falls over. It's probably me feeling very pessimistic, after the euphoria of the 7 May & DC agreeing to 3 years. Still, next few weeks might see some progress

He asked about it and reply was on going talks but funding hard to get as any one who invest will want a big return on money invested and will take years and years to make a good return as most clubs lose money

Was talking to a rovers player yesterday I ask him about uwe and he don't think it will happen

Uwe are not allowed to sale the free hold as it in the deeds when h p let uwe have the land

You mean tin pot

Al Qadi & Hamer's business is going perfectly so far. 1. Absolve BRFC of Wongadministraion. Tick. 2. Exctracate the club from embarrasing and expensive litigation. Tick. 3. Leave DC alone to try to get another promotion. Tick. 4. Offer DC all he's worth and convince him to sign. Tick. 5. Sign the existing and new players DC needs for the 3rd Division. 6. Youth development, training ground, stadium, etc. But, but, but they don't have as much money as some have said they have, they only own one an investment bank various hotels and run HSBC in Jordan, it's all a cover up they are skint, and why isn't the stadium being built yet? There is little more as irritating at some so called Rovers fans who have sat back and allowed the previous chairman to run the club into the ground without challenge, and then nit pick at every opportunity to discredit the best thing that has happened to the club in its history.

Yes when i hear talk of work being done to the mem it does make me nervous about the uwe going forward. Apart from Hamer media speak we have heard nothing concrete since the takeover. I do hope we can break ground by xmas as the momentum the club currently has needs to be maintained. Have the penny just dropped

Thank you

Well, nothing changes. Pre season optimism has already been quashed by more unrest at the club. Evans hanging around like a poor mans van gaal waiting for the axe to fall, Karl Robinson giving us a wide berth....yes, Karl Robinson!!! WTF? Now we are looking around the upper echelons of Europe for the next coach, oh wait, it's Bristol Rovers, FFS did MC learn nothing from the Hockaday experiment? To top it all we are sponsored by 32red....does the Italian prat not understand our hatred of anything red? It makes his views on purple seem pre school. Then there's the so called buy out from the far east, if rumours are to believed it fell through over MC wanting £50m. Serious issues with our once great club in a downward spiral.

What ever Darrell decides, I think he is losing a bit of affection from real gas fans. He has led us to believe he is 100% gas then the first time a club came asking he at this moment anyway is thinking about it even though the club as offered him a new well improved 3 year deal. Remember the club stuck with him when we were relegated otherwise he would be back with Salisbury. He has done a fantastic job since then and I hope he stays but every day that passes without comment I feel he is losing a bit of love with the fans. If he is not 100% with us then maybe it's best he moves on and get someone in who is. He has got by so far with his affinity with the club and supporters and has expected the players to be the same as him which has been great, if he has lost some of this I think it will reflect on his ability to manage . He has also not helped the club by offering contracts to all players, who if we were honest wouldn't get contracts with othe league one clubs, if he decides to jump ship. In my opinion to go to Leeds would be crazy even Neil war nock is warning not too. On a bright note if he moves on Iam sure there will be a lot of good applicants, maybe an older, wiser clone like Ian Holloway would be a good move Maybe it is best for all concerned now that he moves on. We are three days into this saga now and still no comment from dc, his stag doesn't start till monday and unless he is in a cave somewhere he knows exactly what the situation is, more so than even the media reports. Just a pity he offered contracts to many players who clearly aren't good enough for league one thus using up a big chunk of what will now almost certainly be someone else's wage budget. Cheers darrell.

John terry next gas player manger ?

So tell me who did Irene have it off with .?

They have said that the club needs a new stadium, which we all know and have for some time. Hearing Watola prattle on makes my doubts increase.Do you think waqqa has bought the club to remain at ramshackle Mem? Do you think NH would have bailed if there was a chance UWE was nailed on? Would you buy a boat with a hole in the bottom without the ambition to fix it and sail it? Problem is we've no idea what Wael's bought so far, for all we know he's just rearranged the debts and once he's looked closely at the UWE plans could decide it's a none starter and put the club up for sale/into admin. I appreciate that's pretty unlikely but then again I thought we'd never see TW still around now let alone still in front of the camera's!!

Yes

Plan b to re -vamp the mem as the new owner do not have the funds to build the uwe this will be anounce soon

Still got to pay Sainsbury and that over priced house

To me the most important things that has come out of the Sainsbury affair is the planning permissions for the phantom supermarket and the UWE which is the jewel in the crown. Higgs said the ground would get built, of that he seemed confident. He also said long ago that he would sell the Club to whoever had the best interests of BRFC at heart and he appears to have delivered just that, so I would declare that Higgs has played a Blinder. Defeat in the courts (pending) will pale into comparative insignificance when History is recorded. also said its water something or another ?

Odemwingie signs on loan until end of season for Bristol City. I have a funny feeling that he could punish us as he is very tricky and fast. Will Mat Smith get a game tomorrow.

Anyway it is a dead cert that we will win 2moro! 4-1 away at their ground and we have improved since then (:laugh:) so it will be at least 4-1, but to which team? If we can't win tomorrow then we really do deserve to be relegated!! Logged

I going to say 4/0 come on you reds

9 hours ago Topper Gas said: Hasn't you already raised this recently? Given that 92% of the shares are owned by the new owners then does it really matter what we think, as surely it's down to them to decide if it should be approved, and they have the full facts not just limited info? Whether it's actually ever bought off EW and, if so, the bonus paid is surely another matter, even if it is voted though? Going by what Wael Al Qadi said to me, they were obviously not aware of all the facts. I dont know, but would suggest, that a provisional contract has now been drafted, and that would include all the details relevant to the site. That would obviously contain all the irritating detail that may not have been passed on by our previous owners. Ho dear
