Quote: TrinitarianWF2 "We need progress, not a meeting next month, tangible progress. The situation at BV is untenable & is become yet another factor which is driving even the hardiest of fan away.
There is supposed to be a clear way of financing the base of the stadium complex, build that if nothing else & start selling investment once there is something tangible to see.'"
I have to agree with vasty on this one; you've clearly never worked in business! I can tell you with absolute certainty that YC and the various banks involved won't give two hoots how tenable or otherwise BV is, or what a few fans of a small time RL club think.
We are talking about *vast* sums of money here and huge risks for the individuals and companies involved; if it happens at all, it will happen based on the finances being 100% secured in advance and cast iron contracts and guarantees being in place to protect all parties.
There is absolutely no way on god's green earth that YC, or any other developer, would complete earthworks and pour millions of tonnes of concrete into the ground, just to get the attention of potential investors.
I'm all for enthusiasm, but it's important to be realistic.
