http://www.millwallfc.co.uk/news/article/chairman-statement-17-feb-1364408.aspx? That's not my style. I don't want a fight with anybody, but I shall stand up and be counted for Millwall Football Club." John Berylson Chairman
The last paragraph nutshells it for me. 'As things stand, we have been excluded from the benefits of the Surrey Canal Triangle development. Our stadium is shown at the core of the plans and we are expected to carry on staging football matches and investing more money in The Den. Meanwhile, the Council does deals with a private property developer and expects us to stand on the touchline and cheer.' One JB
This whole thing smacks of corruption to me. If what Beryl says is true, and I don't doubt him, then surely this whole business has been contrived between Renewall and Lewsham Council is crook. Didn't Beryl say that there was only one tenderer to the project and that Millwall were denied? You can't legally have a tendering process where only one tenderer is allowed. All sounds a bit shonkey to me.
When this all came out first of all there was direct links between Lewisham council and Renewal which suggests conflicts of interest, either that or some large drinks on the table at the next 'lodge' meeting. Everything suggests that Millwall FC have been frozen out by corrupt councellors feathering their own nests.
When in div 3 you will be ground sharing with Palarse. Listen to the words of those most experienced ( 10 years and counting ) in sorting through the weasel words of dubious shyster owners.
Anyway Ringo are plains at an advanced stage for the not606 bun fight on 22/3. As the local lion it seems right that you do the arranging of times/locations.
Nothing planned as yet Glory, but i was thinking about plotting up in Bettys in Harrogate, once we've eaten our sandwiches with the crust cut off and downed our cups of tea, have a vanilla slice or two and then get the train into Leeds totally outwitting the Police Intelligence officers run amok through Leeds station helping ourselves to some flapjacks from Marks & Spencer. By this stage the Police will have rounded us up and put us on a bus straight to Elland Road, this is where we up our game by breathing on the windows so that it mists and then draw pictures of cocks as we drive past the Peacock. If it all goes to plan it'll be proper naughty.
