If Sainsburys win, I will empty "the flask" in my nearest Sainsburys Deli Counter

I'm getting negative vibes from most Gasheads on here and other platforms. It would appear that not many people believe we are going to win this case. We shall see in 16 hours or so.

To be honestly I don't have the foggiest. It's a shame there isn't actually a market with the bookies on this as it would give me a better idea of our chances.

5,000,000/1 us. 1/5,000,000 them. Can't see any way of us winning. Ever the optimist me

We're a pretty pessimistic bunch though, I'm sure the same sort of negativity appeared before the TRASH verdict. Very little public info on the contract etc. makes it near impossible for anyone to 'call it' as such. I too am negative about the whole thing, but what gives me hope is that Sainsbury's are paying out £££££££ in similar cases, so its not impossible for the big multinational to 'lose the case'. Would have a look at whether they appealed in these cases, but I think that can wait till tomorrow.

Hopefully 30m will be going to us but I reckon £2-3m will be more like it.

Excited for the verdict, win or lose no one can call it, but at least we finally get an answer.
Sure the board will be quick to tell us the plan forward on either eventuality?

Well its like alot of things in life ...... I go carp fishing with the attitude of if I catch something then its a bonus but dont expect it, thats negative I suppose, but its the same with this people not expecting to win the case but if we do then its a huge bonus ..... head over heart but really want it the other way round

Based on nothing I'm becoming increasingly confident.

Spoke to a Sainsbury new build project manager this afternoon. He had no heads up but that the feeling from Sainsbury angle is confident. Says they pay top dollar to represent on these cases. He doesn't think they will buy the ground as they have halted most large new builds over the last few years.

1/2 Sainsburys 2/1 BRFC Based on the "the law is an ass" However the road to ruin is by backing favourites

Confidence is not a typical characteristic of Rovers fans due to repeated kicks in the nether regions so as usual I am preparing for the worst. I'd go four to one Shamesbury's
