a forest green and braintree final would of struggled to attract 8k , the gumps will take about 4k max to wembley . it will be like a home game for the 30k mariners fans going.

I'm slightly confused how the ownership of the stadium will work if funding is mainly/entirely through outside investors. Could we even claim to own our own ground? I suppose the money from the sale of the Mem will be our stake in the new stadium so we'll be part owners of it at least. we will still own the ground. investors will put money in to fund the build but will just get money back in return and not a stake in the property. so a investor could put say 5 mill in the pot and wael will give him back 6 over the next 10 years provided were making money e.c.t. its much easier to do though when you have a billionare owner as it is seen as less of a risk to investors.

so glad this sainsburys thing is over. had higgs still been in charge we would still be ploughing money into this unwinnable venture . i thought the sainsburys deal was just to raise the cash had no idea any agreement with the uwe would be null and void if we didnt push the sale through. no wonder its taking them so long to get the stadium moving , it was alot more of a clusterfuck than we were led on to believe

Make sure your tray tables are in the upright and locked position because its going to be one hell of a ride. in the event of a emergency the emergency exit can be found off the end of matty taylors big toe. UTG !

at the end of the day we managed to find goal scorers before matty taylor and we will continue to find them after hes gone. cant understand this comment? We've lost out time & time again, with every one of them! With your thinking, we'll have to be happy to just stick around League Two for the vast majority of our future then, just as we have since the earliest of those players I listed, left us? UTG i just dont think our promotion credentials heavily rely on whether Matty T is with us or not . i have complete faith in dc to get in a replacement.

can't see taylor staying if we don't go up. you cant blame him for wanting to play at the highest level but at the end of the day we managed to find goal scorers before matty taylor and we will continue to find them after hes gone. the only disappointment will be us receiving £0 in return for his services if he leaves.

at the end of the day he sold the club to the highest bidder. not many chairmen can say they have left a club and made a healthy profit on all the money they put in down the years. I've not heard NH say that either? Although what other Chairman has sold a club with full pp for a stadium like the UWE?Pretty irrelevant given the deal was completely dead. it probably saved wael about 6 months in planning.

But Wigan is a sports town with its Rugby League and the north west is a football hit spot. They started moving up the leagues and with the new stadium they gave their fans a good football experience. Do that and mix it with success you start to develop a fan base. Never going to happen in Crawley IMO. Just because you have new owners isn't an automatic good thing, it's more about the quality of them and what kind of people they are. Crawley had new owners that got them into the league and according to some they were perhaps not the best with questionable motives! Our new owners are true gems from what I have seen to date and we are fortunate. Never thought I would say that with Rovers! And ....most will disagree with me here, I think that we have to thank the last board and NH for keeping their nerve and selling to the right people. I say that because didn't the rumours say there were others interested in buying us but that NH continually said, in response to questions about being sold, it has to be the right people. And in that he was correct and he saw it through! (It's ok I've got my hard hat on.) at the end of the day he sold the club to the highest bidder. not many chairmen can say they have left a club and made a healthy profit on all the money they put in down the years.

I remember at twerton it was kids only at the front but at the mem you seem to to have fully grown men stood at the advertising boards. another reason a all seated UWE will be a bit more user friendly.

I have to agree with Philistine, and somewhat with T Bone. IF we go up the standard will be that bit higher again. Can we afford the luxury of having a bit of a donkey in the side? His goal return this season is pretty good and 9 goals in 10 games or whatever is good but we could equally have lost those games and Taylor's goals would have meant nothing. TBH i think at the end of the season we should say " Thanks Matty, you did a decent job, all the best for the future" it could be worse , we could still have that old cart horse lambert playing for us . he only got 29 in a season .
