    They didn’t own the ground previously but we’re buying it as part of the new ground deal. Was complex from memory so if it has all fallen through they will be back paying rent

    Neither was Rupp under Grayson, Adams, Bowyer, McCall. All very competent managers at this level but all failed ultimately.

    Sorry Rod I'm obviously missing something. All you say is true but what has all that got to do with me quoting Jamie Scowcroft?

    Face it they have been very fortunate that Hughes applied had he not then I feel thousands of season ticket sales would have been lost .......... they have been giving a lifeline and the powers that be should be all out to give Hughes the best of everything ......., the best staff the best budget everything is that so difficult to do ?????
    I also hear that Huw Jenkins is possibly in the running to take us over and maybe more to this than the normal bull he took over Swansea in the same posistion .......he was sniffing around Charlton maybe we are an ideal project for him

    We can only go on what we've been told (unless someone knows otherwise) and what we've been told is this...

    Although from what I heard he has agreed to join but is completing his contractual obligations at his current club.

    He didn't say, just that the figures quoted were wrong for Fry and that his CEO figures were correct but we're the lowest in the championship. To be fair that part of the story seems more of a personal attack than anything else.

    That doesn't surprise me at all. DMac always had a reputation as a tight sod! ;)

    I just can't see how it won't or can't be more regulated from tax, money laundering, corruption purposes, which is one of the reasons for it i.e. outside of government intervention, but you are opening up a massive black market. Who's to say government officials dont have hidden bitcoin accounts right now?

    That's taking it up a few levels.

    Billionaires only for that one.

    NFTs sound about as safe an investment as Football Index…..we know how that ended.

    The reason that went to the wall (quote from a Guardian article with a former FI employee):

    “The early users all make money because the price is rising, later users pay more and more for the bets. Eventually, that last group of users have massively overpaid for those bets, there’s nobody else to buy those bets and that’s when the platform goes bust. There is literally no other source for that money and it’s built in as a structural problem.“

    The same structural flaws are the problem with NFTs IMO.

    Bitcoin certainly hasn't imploded so i'm sure sure what you base that assertion on.
