I actually spoke to someone last week to see if Ellis would be interested in going into the community on different nights and building from within. A Q and A in normy, sharlston, Horbury for example. The reply was positive and that he also wanted to get audience nights at the club up and running. He was working his way through about 50 things and then he'd be sorting it out.

I am not bothered about a q and e night from Matt Ellis. I believe in the old saying that actions are louder than words. From what we have seen so far is plenty of action and i am extremely happy in the direction he is taking the club. Just sit back, relax and enjoy the ride.

Yes, i believe it is. I’m not sure if any annual repayment to the council loan has actually been made yet, but just before M Ellis took control of the club, John Minards released a statement saying they were due to start negotiations with the Council over the repayment due to relegation (loss of Sky funding ). Nothing has been said from the new management regarding repayments to them council.

I don't understand your reference to an "annual payment".

The payments are surely monthly and Carter has previously been on record as saying we were fully up to date with payments.

We've owned the ground for a few years now, so more than one payment would have been made, even if it was annual.

My understanding was the ground loan had a payment holiday to a maximum of 5 yeras OR from the date the stand came into use. Carter would thetefore have not have had to repay anything during his tenure. If anyone knows different, i will stand to be corrected
