Going further if 30 June is an absolute deadline the club internally and its legal advisors should now know the position as I understand it. If they haven't had the draft judgment yet - just to add no action can be taken on the basis of a draft judgment - then the 30 June deadline will be missed.

BS4 on Tour... Posted June 26, 2015 Share Posted June 26, 2015 They love a book about themselves self congratulating each other don't they. They keep telling anyone who listen ( which in fact is no one) how there are unique fans in British football. Only days ago Higgs was boasting about how everyone in league one is envious of the size of the club. I'm sure all gasheads are afflicted by some sort of mass hysteria about their club. I completely serious their notion about their club is beyond parody . Didn't they once release a DVD entitled something like 'The Great FA Cup Run' when they beat some lowly club and then lost the next game after a replay, ie three games in two rounds?! Can't remember who or when so I apologise for a ridiculously vague post, but I do remember it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whether that is tomorrow, next week, next month or November it's a case of wait and see. There is no ITK re the Court's next step, and if there is disclose it at your peril, so anything you read or hear it's a safe bet that it's probably guess work unless official.

Rich Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 How a rugby supporter viewed the deal.Re: Mem redevelopement delayedGray_Lensman (IP Logged)12 September, 2013 08:03Yes, you are right BD, Rovers had ended up playing another season at the Memorial Ground (and come on people it is the Memorial Ground, not 'Stadium' and certainly not the 'Mem').BristolWelsh, I'm sorry but the acquisition of the ground by Rovers was questionable. I've gone over it a few (!) times but the Chairman (and a couple of others who made loans to the club) refused to let the shareholders of the club see the accounts at the first AGM (and only AGM I think), we were never informed of the deal that essentially gave one party the right to take control of the one physical asset for a nominal sum, he inserted that clause into the deal, and he was a shareholder in Rovers. Then, before you could say 'undeclared conflict of interest' he calls in his loans, puts us into receivership thus activating the clause that allowed Rovers to gain control of our Ground. Plus he recovered all his money from the sale of the Combination ground.And as for WB's Deed of Trust, that has long been a hopeful rumour but has never been shown to actually exist. I think it is entirely mythical or it would have been produced long before now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
