Well my thoughts are it went really well with a number of the current main issues brought up to date as far as could be with not long to wait for the decisions on HMRC and the ground. Loads of work going on behind the scenes with some success on the commercial side, still lots to do with ideas and initiatives active and on the agenda and looking for more suggestions and in that area it seemed like there was a link between having to cut the cloth accordingly-staff levels-workload-progress and only being able to do so much at a time. Absolutely no question about commitment levels from the club and anyone who can constantly knock them mouthing off whilst sat on their ars*e are a disgrace and should be ashamed, shut up and stay away.

Well if there's one thing about the forum, Clayton has wound the shaymen up . Funny how even when answering questions directly it still gets twisted to their narrative. Like he said why should he make the footballs perspective public thats bosomworth job.

Like he said why should he make the footballs perspective public thats bosomworth job.[/quote:imh8gyoh] Yeah this was a strange one as early on he kind of insinuated that it was pretty much a done deal and mentioned the discussions around the main fears of Town fans that they won't be allowed promotion to the EFL, later on he back tracked slightly and he talked about it not been a done deal and that there are maybe 3 offers on the table. I don't know if it was a slip of the tongue but there appears to be an offer on the table that is directly linked to Fax although he was very coy about it and again seemed to be pushing the Davy bid.

Unlikely he planned it this way but often when teaching, giving instructions or information the most important things are left until last. For clarity on the KD option so there was no confusion in what had been said he concluded by stressing multiple times that at this stage that’s all it was an option. If the KD option is chosen Clayton mentioned that whilst it would be good for everyone it would be the Giants and FC Town who actually needed the upgrades rather than Fax. The Giants need them for IMG points and Super League and FC Town need them for promotion. The Giants side is pretty much cut and dry but from a Town perspective it looks like there is still some confusion and possibly a conflict of information / interests over the number of teams that are allowed to share the ground under the EFL rules that have been posted here on the Shay thread and elsewhere. For Town, on the one hand to gain promotion for example the pitch would need upgrading but without Davy neither Town and or Fax could afford the extra £300 grand shortfall from the grants. So you have a situation where Fax are okay either way and if Davy buys it and does the upgrades, Giants are okay and Town are okay on the type of pitch etc but could fall fowl over the number of teams using it! Quite rightly the prerogative to sort this particular problem out rests with Bosomworth and FC Town, it’s a football issue not a rugby one which is what Clayton said. I’m sure the Town fans wouldn’t be happy if Fax were to interfere with things that fell outside there jurisdiction. Connecting the dots what I did find interesting was when asked about the loans from Davy to the clubs should he be successful Clayton seemed to infer that since Fax don’t actually need the improvements when the Giants and Town do, Fax could stress that reason to avoid having a loan with Davy just absorbing the 100k mentioned. Interesting and meaningful few weeks ahead.

It was always my understanding that a bid was coming from fax but then davy came in from a leftfield position ( it is my guess that a conversation may have happened between one of the orox brothers who davy knows through the forget me not charity ) Last year when I was repeatedly kicked off the shaymen forum by nobbie it was because I knew we were interested in the stadium has I was getting first and second hand information from 2 out of 3 guys up on the stage at the forum. The reason why the davy option is more appealing is time and finances related, if our people did it it would take longer maybe a few years whereas davy will have it up n running in a season. Ultimately nobody knows what will happen in the future but I can understand the appeal but also the caution.
