My first question is, what's Rodney doing on the panel? He's a legend, of course but is he also now part of the current executive?
Well for anyone who has 78min spare then here it is! [video=youtube;yNNoKyP5TQU]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yNNoKyP5TQU[/video]
Well I watched 47mins but need some kip now. I posted in another thread earlier that Rome was not built in a day and laughed when Tony also mentioned it. Despite some of our concerns I feel like we are in capable hands and it looks like Tony and co are here for a long stay. Right I'm off now to go and clap my hands!
I understand fernandes said that the debt is going to be written off, that will put a dent in flyers idea of the club going to pot.
He said they were talking about it. One wont necessarily lead to the other, but it would allay any FFP worries should it be the case.
I think that may be why they're considering it. If FFP does come into force (there are hints at legal challenges etc), writing off the debt may be the only way to avoid being deep in the brown stuff!
Indeed, but it is a ****load of money to write off, and it probably won't be the only time. Without wishing to sound too cynical, they must be expecting a huge opportunity to earn from the surrounding area to the new stadium and maybe from the sale of Loftus Road. Just to add to this that I have no beef with this, everyone should be winner.
I think you're right. The sale of the ground and profit from the new ground and complex are what they must be looking at.
So in short there will be decent disabled facilities at the new stadium and maybe a disabled coach for the away leg. They sound right about ffp also, unenforcable. Clive&Steve won some prizes.
