Whilst out on saturday night (no drinking as I was designated driver), I met the bloke who designed some of the build on the East Stand (known him years, hes only young, 24, and he showed me the schematics on his phone of what he designed). He told me that WE the club are not funding most of the build but the Construction Company are paying for virtually everything. Whilst I may think why would that be the case, I have known this lad for years, see him at Elland Road sometimes and I have no reason to not believe him. I know hes in building and design trade and if I hadnt seen the schematics of the build on his phone I would have been less inclined to believe him. So the question is where is the ****ING money going?
tbf, even LIW has texted saying why would the construction company pay for it...i did ask that and he said it was good advertising for them. but it just seemed weird, but as far as he was concerned, he designed it and the construction company are paying a big bulk of it. just thought id mention it as i was told it. whether its right or not I dont know. but something to think about
A lot of big construction is done like that, they will then charge a rent, and or a percentage of the earnings that come from that particular building. There is usually a clause or 'option to buy' at some point too. It sounds similar to government schemes used on schools and hospitals.. until the torys stopped it all. Plus a way of the building company keeping staff
its easy to get big construction companies to rebuild stadiums, they will have contracts in place claiming their shares and their stakes, they foot the bill, do the work, get paid commissions and earn a vast profit when eventually sold
i have heard this somewhere else as well but didnt believe it. It was obviously a completely different source however i dismissed it, so maybe it is true then...
Of course, you may find Bates is one of the owners of the building company, not saying he is, just MIGHT be worth looking into.....
Well £3m+ went on court costs for one case alone. Add on all the others........ Private jets to and from Monaco. = Not much left. BATES OUT!
So the question is where is the ****ING money going? ............ One the biggest wage bills in the league. Brown and o brien 2 the biggest earner and they look poor signings. All so Grayson wasted good money on o'Brien and paid for the keeper. Some money will have gone on the stand and to say this this was free is talking bull for me. They do not build stuff for free! Money is still there to spend as bates and Grayson keep saying over and over Grayson just left it to late and it will now go on loan players.
Sounds like he was trying to get into your knickers Pags. He didn't tell you he is also an airline pilot did he?
