thats true ,if the terms of the contract have not been kept up by either side then its stalemate ,just hope it gets sorted as cortese is not looking good and will struggle to get contractors to carry out anything if he gets labled as a bad payer.

the building company are called leadbitter and according to someone close to the action i know i can tell you they havent been paid ,over a million is owed .cortese has a habbit of not paying and is well known through the southampton buissness comunity for it.they also owe another contractor...
