The Fruit Bowl. Like it 

Funded by the begging bowl

I actually think new owners might put them in administration to clear the debt then rebuild separately

cant see any other way of reducing the enormous cost of the redevelopment

As I say I’m not an expert but wasn’t the original arena scheme binned because the Council effectively decided they didn’t want to pay for it? (That may not have been the official line of course but that’s what was suggested)

This stadium, ‘the Fruit Bowl’ or whatever cringy name they’ll call it, will be funded by outside investment. The Council would love that surely?

Im not sure what third party objectors there could be around there? Like I say I think the whole area is up for regeneration.

In terms of a commercial redevelopment then no problem but when you factor in large cash draining construction that doesn’t generate the returns that other industry’s would it seems odd. 

That said theyre still staring at about 100 million to get in a fully built stadium with infrastructure.

That’s  whilst their loosing 3 million a year

Even if they sale the mem and don’t have to  give the owners the cash back

even if a consortium has bought the land and given them to them

even if the council have said crack on start tomorrow that’s exactly what we need

even if no one, not one person objects

even if an enormous engineering project built on an old industrial site next to a river will go swimmingly

they still need to find 40-50 million to build whilst loosing 5 million a year, and having to play at Weston 

bear in mind a recent transfer fell through as 20k was too steep

Rovers 1-0 penalty

Good that the ref gave them their customary compulsory pen early doors, gives posh enough time to get 3 back

Let him get 10, Plymouth are winning, knocking one out over a side show whilst their place in league 1 slips slowly away, ha ha ha

I've heard that Sercombe is one of their better players (must be if any type of fee is being quoted). If that's the case surely by buying a striker they might solve one problem but will almost definitely create another?

Great stuff, carry on losers...

Their best outfield player by far, they will get peanuts for him and probably replace him with some dog turd non league player, their spiralling down fast

Antonio Fargas Moderator 1 minute ago Quote Not sure if anyone will agree with this, but istm if we were in the Prem we would have more money to spend on players, and there would be a chance that more potential fans would turn up to games, coz of the (supposed) higher profile of the Premier league. Just an idea, anyway.

Actually he's not the only manager to get them relegated out of the football league. They finished bottom of the third division south in 1939 which meant they were effectively out of the league and had to be re-elected. Gasheads should be reminded that they have now joined the league three times!

The CEO said he can't imagine appointing anyone before Christmas, doesn't sound nailed on SC then, or like they had a plan...

Perhaps he’s holding out to ask Father Christmas if he’d like the job

Shame, he was doing a tremendous job there.

Big Sam, yeah alright. What about 'Arry? Fresh out of the jungle, I'm sure he's already driving up the M5 in his Range Rover, ready to swap one swamp for another!!!

 

 

They'll go for the cheapest option available to them - either one of Wallys family (maybe even fancies himself), or Marcus Stewart.

Please please please santa let Wael take the job on himself,

Did it get extended from 10 to 12 or was it 12 to 15?  Either way its not getting any better.. 

Either way how many packets of out of date crisps or glasses of fake Fanta will it take to clear 12 million

Tonight could be the last straw if what I heard was true.they really are on the brink of administration unless the fake sheke walks and takes a hit on his investment

Or sales his watch ?

Doesn’t their keeper have to go back in January, to be replaced by Tom Nichols, the dog botherer the turnstiles lady, or lord knows who?

If he goes they are right in it up to their neck
