I have a feeling I saw an advert years ago of Stanley Matthews advertising a cigarette (Craven A ?) and I'm sure he didn't smoke!
The main talking points from today in court... * HSBC are putting up £350m to cover any potential shortfalls in funding * There's a fifty page document from Haringey council detailing the benefits of the new stadium, which Arseway apparently didn't read * The CPO is not tied to the size of the stadium, as Arseway claimed * Justice Dove is a Villa fan, so there goes any attempts to cry bias So what was Arseway's response to having their appeal obliterated by lawyers for Spurs and Haringey Council? I hope none of you are carrying hot liquids when you read this... They whinged about their human rights.
All this nonsense must be costing Arsewipe Steel a fortune in legal fees!. I wonder who's footing the bill?...
The judge has ruled in our favour, declaring that there's "no legal flaw" in the decision making process. That should be it now, unless they successfully appeal the decision, which seems unlikely. Hopefully they'll piss off now.
England's cricketers plumb new depths with Brendon McCullum needing about three quarters of an hour to knock off their paltry total http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/cricket/31550574
Obliterated by a country With about 100 people living there ( the rest all seem to work at a pub in London somewhere) and a couple of million sheep! Absolutely pa-****ing- thetic!...
BT Sport have dropped Stan Collymore as a commentator, because he criticised Rangers singing sectarian songs. I don't like the guy, but that seems a bit off. Michael Owen's absolute **** and they haven't dropped him. Could somebody try to get him to make a few controversial comments, please?
It's a Chinese saying/curse (though may also be Irish for all I know)..... "May you live in interesting times". Just as the people of the Crimea are now living in an "interesting" time or those residents of London in 1666 had an "interesting" time. It's a bit 'be careful what you wish for'. Dull is nice and predictable!
The club has released a statement that is subtly sticking the boot in: http://www.tottenhamhotspur.com/news/northumberland-development-project-update-200215/
Surely Archway would have got themselves a better deal by co-operating more. I just don't understand their motives.
From the THFC site (thanks to Croydon's link elsewhere) they have been refused leave to appeal, but they can go to a higher court. But it seems there is little point and they are just racking up more and more legal fees. Hopefully they know they are beaten. Not to say they won't handcuff themselves to the building, but it's nearly over I think. http://www.tottenhamhotspur.com/news/northumberland-development-project-update-200215/
I would not be surprised if Arseway wait until day 21 before lodging another appeal, they have been intent on delaying the NDP for as long as possible. I would love to know their motives (apart from ££££££ of course), they must have known their case is weak, seems they have been badly advised or are just wanting to delay things as long as possible.
