Nick: if we lose the appeal would you consider your position untenable and will you sell the club?

Darrell: Thatchers or Ashton Press?
Football zines. They still exist. Buy this one: http://lastsaturdaynight.bigcartel.com

IF (and its a big if) they won the court case against Sainsburys to force them to pay the contractually agreed price, would Bishopston Society need to pay this level, or  the Lower present market value?

I don't think it would make much difference as even the lower value (for housing?) would still be a big sum for a local volunteer society with less than 200 members, and no history of raising big money. They might be able to convince a few extra people / organisations to commit, but would only have 6 weeks to put their bid together. A lot of organisations are good at talk, but when it comes to hard cash, the interests vanes.

Apparently 12 investors have approached him in the last 2 years...

"With our fan base and planning permission for a 22,000 seat stadium on the outskirts of the city, the club is potentially an attractive proposition for investors."

Clutching at straws there.

The club that hasn't had a five figure average home attendance for over 40 years. Massive potential.

That capacity keeps going up! 20000, 20700, 21000, 21700 now 22000. Not that it will ever be built anyway.

Interesting comments on here https://www.mindomo.com/mindmap/sainsburys1-5cd9199f40eb4787879b49700079bb17

Imagine after all the turmoil, Rovers ran out with Sainsburys on their shirts into the Sainsburys stadium Ha Ha Ha

Seems strange that Sainsburys would make a document like that publicly accessible?

I expect you can hear the roar of the crowd from your place can`t you? It must be terrifying and the house must shake to it`s very foundations. I`m surprised you can get insurance.

Horace has very keen hearing and he claims to have heard a groan about 28 minutes ago. At least ten people, he reckons...
