    It is actually possible for just one side to be lying. Just saying.

    Neither of the parties seem to be willing to state what the remedial actions are that have been advised? Wonder why?

    If they'd decided to try and buy the ground, I'll wager BFC revenue would've paid for it rather than their own money.

    The statement you made yesterday made clear your opinion of Dan Jarvis. Not pretty. At all.

    The council possibly feel like it’s not really their place to comment on what the tenants have or haven’t been advised to do by a separate advisory group. It’s different when they are being blamed through misleading statements for shutting a stand for structural reasons which they haven’t done and I don’t blame them for clearing their name of that.

    In fairness, the club statement doesn't blame the council. What I meant by either parties was the ground owners and the football club owners.

    What a thoroughly depressing thread.

    After 4 years of this ownership I’ve come to expect mismanagement and deceit from the Board. Fair enough, they have evidenced they have little commitment to the Club or the area. But to see some fans supporting the Board’s scurrilous actions and seemingly accepting other fans being thrown under the bus. Dear me. Sad to see.

    Just ******* grow up and fix it you complete set of self-serving bellsniffs. "Oooh the other party did this and this isn't our responsibility". Get round a table and agree on a way to ******* FIX IT!!!

    Agreed, I'm amazed at the attitudes of a small minority in this thread. You'd have thought at a time like this people would be supportive of fans who've been thrown out of their seats part way through a season for no good reason but clearly that's too much for some.

    We've had numerous instances over the past few years where our owners have got into spats with other parties and it has been aired in public. Maybe it is just bad luck, eh? :rolleyes: A bit like when someone has been married five times and all the exes are bad apples o_O. I mean, it's possible...?

    Some mental gymnastics being used too. Why would a club seek a second opinion for something when it has already been passed (as some are speculating with zero evidence)? Why would the landlords pass something if it is unsafe when they aren't the ones responsible for its upkeep - surely it makes more sense to do the opposite?!

    I know who I believe anyway. Stop trying to defend the indefensible.

    it’s obviously this, with massive fecking bells on, first priority is maximise profits, all other considerations secondary.

    It doesn't seem long since the club was going to take vigorous action over Daniel Stendel et al. Now he's working for them again.

    I think you get the point though!

    Alternatively, stop trying to lay blame before all the facts are laid out.

    I do, but thought it was worth clearing up, seeing as we're all about dealing in facts, yeah?

    Don't.

    What's.
    Going.
    On.

    Unless you've got access to documents, phone calls, emails and conversations between all parties involved, that aren't public?
