Been told by several people that talks with the UWE are complete and for some weeks now it has been left to us to decide whether we wish to proceed. If this is the case, and the final terms are acceptable, why have we not gone ahead? Are the funds in place? Surely we have now reached the time when this whole saga needs to be brought to an end. NB work has finally started on the Mem pitch today. Why should they tell us ?? , The Board / Owners are the ones who will be / already have, stumped up the cash and will announce things when they are ready and everything can be signed off, or written off. Would you really want an announcement to say we are nearly there, or things are on going, or we've hit a few snags, that would only lead to more pointless speculation. Be patient. They will let us know when they are ready.

Isn't it all part of the PR process Wael/Hamer have used from day 1 to talk up the UWE project, nobody has forced them to make any of previous announcements, it just seems odd now we're reaching the end game there's no news whats so ever.

Listen do you want to know a secret, Billy J Kramer. We'll probably end up with 'No Particular Place To Go' (Chuck Berry).

Yes quite right, owners has no responsibility to keep the fans informed, it's their money and their club and anyway it would only get us talking if they did give us an update. We can't be trusted with information it will only panic us.

Two things that need reiterating. First, SH has twice at recent meetings confirmed that the land at UWE will be held as leasehold not freehold. So forget about land values etc. We won't be buying it. Second, Some need reminding that whilst NH gave most things away to UWE, the major difference was that the monies didn't need to be repaid under NH, but do in our current circumstances. You mean NH didn't expect to get his money back? pray tell me the difference oh deluded one

I assume they meant the UWE was being paid for by the money we got from Sainsburys for the Mem, under the new owners the UWE has to paid for itself although Wasps RFC don't seem to have a problem doing that at the Ricoh Arena.

My rant is over - but in some respects I agree with what you are saying. There was no site to be found, no designs to me made, no planning applications to be made all the tedious stuff that can take years to overcome was complete- basically it was down to a re- negotiation of a new contract between an existing party and a new owner. The attraction of BRFC to the AQ's initially was effectively just that - a stadium with a planning application approved and a solid fan base with potential for significant growth. They wouldn't have touched us with a barge pole if that wasn't the case. I cannot believe if they carried out due diligence they didn't understand that there were potentially big issues with the existing contract. Unfortunately due diligence cannot always mitigate bare faced lies - and there may have been issues which the new owners felt could be overcome - it is worth remembering - negotiations only effectively commenced 12 months ago - what went before is irrelevant A risky strategy to tell " bare faced lies" when you're still 'owed' money by the new owners and with the possibility of some form of legal recourse if found out. Genuine question - do you know and can you expand on what the "bare faced lies" were - without leaving yourself open to possible libel?
