I watched the 5-1 under dougie in a box there. That was hard work!

Not very happy memories of Elland Road after travelling there for a cup match after work on a foggy night, having to park on a disused stretch of motorway, walking a fair jag and then being locked out when we finally got there. Had to listen to the match on the car radio on the way home.

replay -v- Newcastle. I had the same experience for that game and never got in the ground. The traffic queue started at the end of St Peters Way!

Now what?
Have we got another 48 hour wait?
Has the car park sold?
Has anybody bought us?
Are we still selling off Clough & Vela?

D'you know, I spent a week in South Korea (in Busan) waiting until I could get back into Japan to renew my visa. I reckon with that background I should be a shoe-in for a Supporter's Trust place on the board...

No. Not without his say in the footure...
It always sounded bollox to me this £1 sale and the money upfront for a season's running costs. Bullshit.
There's debt beyond the wipedout debt, and there's assets to realise. Nobody's playing a straight bat, none of the fxckers.

Questions should be asked. I fear we won't like the answer.

Anyone who is under the misapprehension that Eddie is doing what is right for the club need to be asking different questions. IMHO.

I'd like to put what I think but I am wary of what happened to the Blackpool fella!

^^ Interesting that the additional £8m that Iles mentions isn't unadjacent to the £8m that Nixon reported @10:00 this morning. If that demand is genuinely "new" then it'd be a pi$$ poor show. Effectively, the £15m number doesn't seem to be decreasing much with the passage of time to the end of the season and sale of assets.

6 + 8 = 14 - which isn't far off the figure that has been mentioned for ages...

Is ED just making sure the club goes to the right people?

The roller coaster poker games continue with the owner and his rep taking all of us for a ride to milk as much as they can for the owner from the sale. He will not walk away with only one pound. Will it be a bluff too far? Stay tuned. I am tired of it.
