I am getting really frustrated at the lack of any news coming from the Rovers. Dont forget Hamer said 3 months ago that the under carriage was down and the landing lights are on - that's how close we are. They said they were looking at three sites for the academy- nothing. Where are the two new blokes they took on to oversee the UWE build? they have disappeared off the face of the earth.
Fair enough if things have changed since Brexit and the plans have changed please tell us,hearing nothing like the Higgs era is so frustrating.
i know they paid off our debt and thanks for that or we would have been in administration- but the lack of information is deafening.
Board tell us what's happening even if it's bad news - that would be better than hearing nothing-

The last update was that us and UWE were getting to an agreement.
As the last board didnt have anything in place with UWE (and in some ways with the change thst has proved lucky) Rovers arr obviously trying to renegotiate our position.
No news isnt bad news, but it would be nice to hear something I agree.
I beleive the car park will be needed to be built soon and that might be an.indication of how things are moving or not as the case may be.
Lets not forget the new ownership have spent more on the Mem in 6 months than the last lot managed in nearly 20 years

Hopefully the plane he is talking about is one of these so no fuel worries, but still a long way up in the sky. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Qinetiq_Zephyr

Oh dear with those rocks on the runway it could be a bumpy landing Ah f**k it I'm with spiderman obviously they've told us nothing because everything is going fantastically well, no kit, not selling pies that's the way to run a modern progressive football club.

Could be a case of the current airfield is fog bound and we are being diverted to another airfield close by... Not Filton Airfield? Already sold off for development, as is the old Rolls Royce site. Whether the board is able to discuss with the developers of these is another matter but I guess the UWE is still the preferred option. If the issue is over the cost of buying the land as freehold rather than leasehold, would the premium being asked for really be worth walking away from and starting again with the costs and uncertainties of that?
