I wonder where they've got that from?

OK I'll bite.

I can give you some good news, some really good news and some absolutely brilliant news.

1: We are against all the odds still in SL despite having been coached by a coach who didn't put the team together.

2: We actually over achieved, 8th spot and at least a bash at the play offs though winning it was never remotely likely to happen. Also a day out at a CCup semi final, it wasn't great game wise but as none of us ever expected to be there then that one has to be chalked down to experience.

3: Best for last, Jowitt, Johnstone, Crowther, Moules and Batchelor all played SL this season with Jowitt and Johnstone already regulars and the others not far behind. Mazive, Morriss and Senior also chipping away. When did we have that many youngsters coming through who have real potential and real chances? Of course a lot can go wrong but it's still good news.

A half decent performance on the pitch would be a bit of good news.

Thats exeactly my point charlie63.

The way he worded it was that they had already negotiated deals which were agreed, but nothing would be announced until we knew that we would definatlely be in the super 8's which we were, and once that was confirmed, we would start to make announcements.

Apart from Keegan Hirst, no others have been announced as yet

I'm guessing once season tickets go on sale signings will be drip fed to us in the hope they will stimulate sales.

The thing is our season maybe over but other teams still have important games so will not want to let us announce players signed from them yet

Said it before and I'll say it again, we will be at BV next season.

Sounds like the people who have bought the site are keen for us to remain - and you can understand why; if they're plonking a convenience store and some fast food outlets on it, the regular influx of supporters will be a steady income for them. The players and staff alone would sustain a small Costa franchise, let alone speccies and passing trade.

Also without giving to much away the site has issues that mean it's hard to develop. Any development on the whole site (retail/commercial) probably wouldn't yield much more that the ground rent from us which would be achieved with no further investment from the developer.

Housing development is a possibility but would require a huge investment to make some of the land "safe" and in the area it's in would not earn the premiums to justify it IMHO.

A mix of retailed/commercial and a a sports facility for rent is probably a sound return for the buyer.

Lets hope so anyway.
