Nixon saying no decision from league today. Issue is around debt ED wants to leave in. He has to change that or league won't approve. Has weekend to decide. Though God knows what happens on Monday in court!

And a view from everybody's fave in response to asset ownership of stadium and hotel...."Sports Shield would own it - although more and more seems to be stacked up against assets."

He wouldn't even put the money down to get through this season. Let alone next season.

He also didn't want to play ball at all with ED's demands.

Did you sit in front of me at the Millenium in 2004?! Guy in front as SKD lines one up from 30 yards "FOR FECK'S SAKE DAVIES YOU USELESS BAST..YEEEEEEEAAAAAHHHHH".

My second favourite bit of crowd abuse at our own players.

#1 being a game where Jaaskelainen, decked out in luminous green, had let in what the viewer felt to be a particularly soft goal. "OH FECK OFF JAASKELAINEN YOU PISSING....[searches for appropriate insult]...LIME!"

Tbf, given he was slagging off Jussi, that could've been you too :D!

I get the sense that Iles doesn't believe sports shield are close at all, but didn't want to rock the boat and presumably his relationship with them, just in case......
