Getting a replacement for Monty on a free is hardly spending £100K's on a winger, meanwhile, we expected to just accept that the ALQ's are going to spend £50m on the club. Sorry but I'll remain a pessimist until there's some evidence to be optimistic! I never mentioned a free transfer...a free transfer could be someone from mangotsfield united who isn't very good for all we know. You know full well the point was if large fees were spent on some players on deadline day the fans wouldn't be holding an enquiry as to how rovers could finance it or the wages for the next three years. The Al Qadis are not spending £50million pay attention young man ? they have sought finance from investors. Its not their money. Like when most people buy a house its not their money. All the talk of them spending money is absolute rubbish , they will be facilitating Rovers getting the money to build this project. The Al Qadis are wealthy people but most importantly they know how to raise and invest money.
If BRFC have to pay £1million for 100 years (for example) then its just about ensuring BRFC can pay the £1m each year. Which if this example was correct would be a sum the Al Qadis might feel they can cover themselves if the club struggle to find it all each year.
OK, carry on believing the nonsense Wael comes out with.

good job nobody believes some of the nonsense you come out with Sad thing is most of it's come true! If I may be so bold, what lies or nonsense has Wael come out with? Hard to talk nonsense when you don't actually communicate with the fans!! Hamer, I'll give you. He's done nothing but talk sh**e since he arrived.

Im happy talking sh**e since I do not know all.

I will be very surprised if The Colony project goes ahead as originally intended. It was initially intended to be the home of the whole playing staff and support staff during the week. Any infrastructure to support those number of people would need to be huge - there are around 30 players and staff in the Acadamy alone - add to that around 20 development players plus support staff and probably another 30 players and staff for the first team squad. Eighty odd people plus the day to day staff to run The Colony - how's this going to be financed - not just the build of but the day to day running costs. There must have been a linkage when perceived to a successful outcome of UWE where the infrastructure would have been in place (within maybe 3 years) to at least have given The Colony and the rest of the club financial sustainability - at the moment I just can't see it. One of the earlier more believable 'Hamerisms' was that the club needed average match day attendances of 15k to break even - that will not happen if/when the Mem is being regenerated piecemeal over say the next 5 years. In the meantime the debt will continue to rise - hence, perhaps one of the reasons why DC was persuaded to take a five year contract to at least try and keep this club in the 1st division - anything less would spell disaster. Your comments might hold water if you thought the whole thing through. How is this going to be financed? you ask - do you know how much the current situation costs? - no, I thought not! At the moment costs are increased by the logistical spread of the whole organization - if you ever ran a business you would know there is much to be gained by bringing fractured activity under one roof. Including costs through rents and transport not to mention time factors. I understand why you say you can't see it - but better brains can. Plans are well advanced for the relocation in due course and are not and never have been anything to do with UWE. Sorry to rebut your usual negativity - but it would help if I suggest, you think before you write. Care to elaborate ?

Hamer's Wael's spokesman, if he's talking nonsense why doesn't Wael either publicly correct him, or just tell him to speak the truth in future or he'll be fired as Chairman. You sense Wael supports Hamer telling the odd lie.

Is it bad that I didn't even bother to click the link once I read the "usual SH talk" comment?

“Tom Gorringe [commercial director] who has just joined us tells me that Brighton’s ground is only 10 acres and we’ve got 30 acres, which is absolutely outstanding,” enthused Hamer. That's a bit wrong. Istm the BHA training ground is slightly bigger than the Colony site.

Pre planning back from the council, overall favourable. Will complete plans and make a formal application. Once agreed they will get on with it.
Interesting that we have had some approaches to form a ladies team

That's a bit wrong. Istm the BHA training ground is slightly bigger than the Colony site. Don't know why Hamer insists on comparing us to projects way beyond the scope we will be building. Brighton's new training ground cost 32m and houses a Cat 1 academy, Brentford's stadium is reported to cost 70m. Unless we are planning to spend 100m on infrastructure, it would probably be best for Hamer not make such comparisons.

That's a bit wrong. Istm the BHA training ground is slightly bigger than the Colony site. Brighton's Training Ground has 11 pitches at around 1.5 acres per pitch + infrastructure + parking etc - umm? And it cost the best part of £30m. Not a good start to give your new boss duff info to tell the world - if true and not a good idea to start drawing comparisons.
