Bristol Fruit Market, just saying .............Ok who's on the wind up.
This crops up every year or two and has been doing so for what seems like 20 years or so.

To be fair they were still using paper filing for the accounts last year and companies house are currently processing accounts received last Friday so I guess they should appear in a day or two.
The slightly odder thing is that the three dormant company accounts were filed electronically last year and haven't appeared yet.
The quote regarding why they are late does appear to confirm that it took a while for Hani to agree to fund for a further 12 months
Bang on imo.
Surprised he did agree tbh.

Local press getting their wires crossed again. Hyatt will take on the running of the Ashton Gate hotel when the development is complete.
I seem to remember Hyatt being mentioned before in relation to the new AG development but can't find the article so may be wrong.
But it makes sense with SL looking for a high end hotel plus a budget one (if there is such a thing in Bristol).
It would be another stick to beat SL with

Just saying.
And at least two years worth of their income.

Still no accounts published.
I did just notice that there is a company called Dwane Developments UK https://beta.companieshouse.gov.uk/company/11253528/ owned by Dwane Sports and with just Hani Al-Qadi as a director. I wonder if Hani is hoping that Dwane may take possession of some real estate they could develop?
What ! You mean they intend to asset strip the club ?
No ! Not such a nice man as Wally.

Because as a club its like we are sitting on tonnes of oil reserves under our feet but have no ******* digger to get to it! ( our fanbase being the oil)
Found this gem in the Lockyer thread
What fan base would that be ?
The one that hasn't seen a 10k average attendance for 40 odd years ?

The gift! They just can't help themselves can they.
Perhaps this moron was either the author of "prowed" or the simpleton who headbutts buses.
And they wonder why we have this thread for them.
Don't be too hard on them, they may not have a club to support next season if the rumours are true

Attendances at the time were not what they are today. I have no idea what City's average was back then, but I would guess less than 14000.
Usually, when a team is promoted (especially to the 2nd tier) the attendances go up...

Thing is, they went up, and we went up. Promotion was what we desired in August 1989, not being "Third Division Champions." A big deal for them, no doubt, but third tier "honours" don't exactly float our boat. I would prefer to forget every season we have played at that level (no-one outside of Bristol takes any notice of us at that level). Rightly or wrongly, deluded maybe, we see ourselves as a bit above that piss-poor division (having more often than them, literally, been above that)
It didn't do them any long term good, going up that year, anyway.
It didn't do them much good short term either.
They averaged 6,209 in the promotion year
Then in each of the 3 seasons they were in the 2nd tier they averaged under 6k.

The Sags are in for a very exciting summer if Cockman’s latest comments are anything to go by. The rest of the division will be shaking with fear no doubt.
‘Graham Coughlan reveals Bristol Rovers summer recruitment plans’............
'I've got a nose for a League One player'
You keep aiming for the top, ya Cock.
He'll need more than that as a signing on fee.
Still, not to be sniffed at I suppose.

one of the most funniest days in my life ,mind the gap you bunch of fcu.king weirdos
Yep, wonderful day and the following season was quite funny as well.
I wasn't planning on going out that night but thought I'd go to a couple of pubs to do a bit of Gas baiting but the buggers were nowhere to be seen
They don't like it up 'em.

You are not wrong! On more than one occasion, the ones I know have waxed lyrical about Watney Cup 1972, ‘Smash & Grab’ and Div 3 title 1990 after a few Doombars in the pub on a Friday night - is that really all they’ve got?! Well, yeah, it is.....
A bloke I know who is a gashead got a free ticket in the away end for the Man.City game last season.
His words "it was like being back in the 70s in the Atyeo stand"
I'll just leave it there as my response was pretty obvious.

Apologies if already mentioned but apparently Derby made an offer to Boro to inspect their accounts but Gibson declined.
Also, a statement from the EFL following the meeting of the clubs (saying nothing obviously);

Seems like you are correct.
Gibson was trying to get agreement for clubs to inspect other clubs accounts which doesn't sound like a good proposition to me. He's approached it from the wrong angle imo and gone a step further than transparency.

Cue the break up of the EFL, the formation of a breakaway league, who misguidedly think they are Prem 2...only to realise the Prem are quite happy sharing between 20 clubs and don’t want to further spread their wealth!!!!
It isn't a great leap of imagination to think that a Prem 2 division is a possibility - but not necessarily made up of just calling the Championship Prem 2 and carrying on as normal.
The Premier League won't want any old rag bag outfit spoiling the party and I can see fast tracking by invitation of bigger city clubs into Prem 2 regardless of their position in the EFL. And conditions such as clubs must have a fit for purpose stadium or plans for a minimum 30k seats, from a city that can sustain 30k+ crowds, etc etc. with no relegation from Prem2 unless there happens to be a club that fits the profile to come up.
Lovely jubbly...
