    You’d be surprised. The UK government hands out tenders to companies that barely exist and with no prior record of delivering what is ordered all the flipping time.

    I read there was potential for that to happen, but hadn't seen it confirmed. Given they're a Chinese company (that may or may not actually exist/have funding), i assumed there was a risk that it could just be pouring good money after bad - with no likely chance to recoup the money from China? Have you actually seen it confirmed that we are suing? Good news if so!

    Semmens also confirmed that LD Sports aren't associated with Gao.

    His statement is accurate....but I don't think the laws he is protesting about can or should be compared to those of Nazi Germany. :emoticon-0181-fubar

    And of all people, you might be cruel enough to suggest he'd benefit more than most from wearing a mask...

    He didn't say it was anything to do with masks - I assumed he was alluding to the other massive controls being put on our lives at the minute. So not quite as trivial as comparing masks to holocaust - but still a stupid comparison.

    Not that I am agreeing with his strange conspiracy views of course - but I have seen a fair few people say that tweet expresses sympathy for Nazi's; which is just not his point at all.

    No, it's not, but it clearly is largely to do with his views on mask wearing. He's becoming a poor man's Katie Hopkins, which is never where someone should pitch themselves. Unless it's out of a cannon.

    Yeah it is a real shame as to us Saints fans it is hard not to love the man - but with some of his views and the way he expresses them it is hard to tolerate him.

    Isn't Gao really (Lander) LD Sports? Is this all part of the ruse that they exist as a independent entity/exist at all?

    The thought of someone lecturing a Channel Islander that the Nazis were bad, is ironic!

    Has anyone not renewed and still awaiting a refund for last season? My pal has yet to receive anything from the club despite requesting it as soon as announced. Pretty poor that imo.
