I am not quite sure why having a mid table budget is deemed so fantastic. We are the 9th best supported team in the division, so I would expect no less. There is no denying Higgs dug is into a hole with his pursuit of a stadium, but Sainsbury’s were not blameless for the predicament we found ourselves in. Chasing them through the courts was a case we would never win. But there is no denying the current owners bailed us out. As for improved football club, I guess you never saw us under the Dunforda then. From the brink of extinction at Eastville to a ground of our own back in Bristol. Don’t think we have moved on much from that time to be honest. If you expect no less than the present budget what were you saying going into the mansfield relegation game with the 2nd poorest team in league 2 and no subs worth bringing onto the pitch? I was saying the players massively under achieved. Players like JJOT who must have been on a good wage. And on our return to league 2 we had a mid table budget, which makes the claims by some fans that DC got a lucky promotion as garbage. Can’t see you can give special praise to our owners on an average budget.

We had a decent pitch for a good couple of years prior to the debacle 18 months ago when the ALQs got involved with it. Dev Squad - fair one. Renovations were mainly paid for via an insurance claim for a water leak and then contributions from members of the 1883 who were tradesmen. Temp stands - actually a good idea from Tom, but they cost £10k to erect and the clubs rate card on the sponsorship is £10k per stand. It’s cost neutral. Source - Tom himself. Club shop - paid for by Macron - Source - TG. All the other increase in staff, management and coaches not forgetting the office in London are not being paid for by the ALQs. All they are doing is adding it to the loss on the balance sheet which Hani has to guarantee and is guaranteed via the charge against the Mem plus interest. Why can’t people actually see and register that? Under this ownership we are being put under more financial pressure than in any other previous board. At the current run rate it’s perilous. So regarding the charge against the mem. Is it illegal? Does anyone else use this debt strategy? Can i do it with my house and when it reaches its value walk away without paying anything? Or better still charge myself interest and actually make money on my own debt. Is a high interest loan a much better idea than the charge? MCP also had a charge against the Mem, it's simply a way of securing their loan, I assume if you've got a mortgage they will have a charge against your property in order to secure their loan.

You need to take a copy of this Tommy to the next meeting with Hamer and co - and ask them to comment/ give an update 13 months. Must be some planning application! Edit: I can exclusively confirm via leak that Wael has done the planning application himself, hence the delay. Scans attached:

I though Wael said that they had project managers looking at the training ground two years ago, but these things take time?
Time to get some new project managers on board Wael. How long does it take to get a lawnmower out ffs?!!!!

Can’t see you can give special praise to our owners on an average budget. The budget nearly doubled the first year after they took over. It went up 40% and has gone up every season, since then. So it probally has more than doubled, since they have been in charge. DC said we over achieved in league 2, with our budget. Who says it was mid league 2??

I think we can safely take anything DC said with a pinch of salt.

I know that, that's why I quoted the published accounts, the only accurate evidence we have! Where you can see how much it went up.

DC said this in the interview he did recently. Is that playing budget that has gone up or general wages?
