    Very true. Its just difficult to ascertain the value for money of the rent without knowing what it does or doesn't include.

    As I said I think you could be right but I seem to remember PC wrote off his loan. Not sure though time befuddles the memory.

    Wait until you are retired. Then you will know what a befuddled memory really feels like.

    Last full accounts to March 2015 showed outstanding loans etc to the parties.

    It also stipulated that BFC were responsible for maintenance and upkeep of the land and buildings (to satisfy a query from elsewhere).

    I don't like that we have to pay rent at all for a stadium and land that was ours for which the club received no money. I understand that a loan was taken out on the property with the Sterling Consortium, the money raised from which Mr Doyle used to buy the club. That loan screwed us, but no one at BFC sold the club to Mr Doyle, the administrators did. We lose all the land because the administrator sold the club to someone who financed the purchase with a high interest loan. How was that allowed to happen?
