Listen, It's not like I want us to fail ok. I just have no faith, NONE whatsoever, in Higgs and our board. It's not like he does not have form on this. I will just wait & see but please do tell, how long are UWE prepared to wait and why are they arguing over this with us themselves ? Obviously there's a lot more to it but I am sorry, I can't believe another word from Higgs. If you look at developments already partially started then you'll see Sainsbury's can and do stall things regularly ) Wadebridge) then there is the situation at Southend. In my view, based on the information out there, I feel the best we can hope for is compensation but that probably will take years to pay. When a business " partner" sues you, I guess that would cause I'll feeling even though we are in the right. I applaud your positivity just don't don't think we can all believe what you do. Forgive me but all I see is a username suggesting insider knowledge but no facts to back that up. Maybe you forget just how many times we have been lied to before. As the other poster says, I'll believe it when I am sat in the bugger Why did Higgs deny his story, in entirety, when it surfaced last time ? It only served to make him look evn worse, if that's possible. Us Rovers fans are very forgiving but if this does not happen then I think he would have no credibility or confidence. He took us out of the FL chasing this. We get it, you don't like Nick Higgs. Like ? What's to bloody like, really ? You know, I can't be arsed with this. I am not preaching but I am allowed to form my own opinions and not within a mob mentality. I have never been a pack man nor will I start to do so now. It's everyones prerogative to believe what they want. Do you think that if NH was in any other sphere of business, that he would still be in the position he is ? Anyeay, I am done with this. It's up to you what you choose to think.

Bloody hell. Compared to most on here NH is a genius. Thank god you lot don't run the club. We'd be on the downs. Graham Russell isn't even close. If he thinks our legal costs are about £10k per month he must be living in Panama. If he thinks we're buying the land why have we got a 120 year lease? Having got those wildly wrong, you can bet he has guessed the rest. Trouble is, Sainsburys wouldn't tell him what they intend to announce any more than a legal team telling him what the odds of someone winning a case are. The guy is like an astrologer, and people on here are daft enough to believe him. He is an old hack that should have been put out to pasture a long time ago. KP, how was he right last time? I knew about the Writ. He probably did what I did. Check the lists at the High Court and they tell you who is setting up an action. Let me have a guess. Sainsburys will get the delivery times they don't really want and I hope they still try to delay it. Then we can go for punitive damages which could be more than the original contract. In reality they will concede as they don't want to go to court, and we will see the build start about March when the weather warms up. Listen, It's not like I want us to fail ok. I just have no faith, NONE whatsoever, in Higgs and our board. It's not like he does not have form on this. I will just wait & see but please do tell, how long are UWE prepared to wait and why are they arguing over this with us themselves ?

Feeling the Blues … thanks for posting the summary. There are lazy aspects to the journalism. The picture will change once the issues around delivery/access times have been cleared up (was this mentioned by Graham Russell?) Sainsbury started all of this and they know they cannot simply walk away. If they could walk away and if they wanted to walk away they would have done so by now. They can’t walk away at the moment and the decision on the delivery/access times is crucial. Let’s see what the planning inspectorate have to say. That's not strictly right though is it. They were going to walk away after he delivery hours were chucked out first time, however Rovers are suing them for not making a reasonable effort and it is BRFC that have spent money to help get the hours through. It is Rovers currently stopping them walking away.
Even if it goes our way. Sainsburys are not going to just hand over the money. Something else will spring up from it to delay even further at the very least
You are quite right; I am not denying that they might want out but atm they cannot easily walk away. Sainsbury started this; their bid prevented other major supermarkets from acquiring the Mem. I truly hope we can get them to hold to the contract or failing that we are able to extract maximum value from Sainsbury.

Come on Mr Baggins, with respect - attack the post not the poster. Can't we just have some decent debate without getting personal. It's starting to let this forum down some of the pettiness in threads. IMO of course.

Report says Baggins often seeks the opportunity to irritate but is unsuccessful in his efforts. Must try harder

So its O.K for an anonymous poster to personally attack somebody by name on a public forum. but it is not O.k. for another forum member to attack the poster who is protected by an alias. Surely if you dish it you should be able to take it.

He isn't allowed to say anything due to the confidentiality agreements, GT pushing him forced him to bend the truth, yes, but what more were you expecting him to do? Quite honestly so bored of hearing people accuse Higgs of being some kind of corrupt assh*le. If the stadium goes tits up it isn't because he's corrupt. Fans constantly beg for the truth, which is fine with footballing matters, but with the stadium it's time to accept that we just have to let them get on with it and hope for the best. We can push for change on the footballing side but we cannot help with this - aside from possibly petitions and such.

All was going to plan and then a few days later we heard about the writ.
NH simply had to carry on his, I can't say anything, confidentiality line. We may not have liked to have heard it, but would be better then the fib that was told
