I didn’t state that. I stated follow their line of communication in regular updates. They are a non league club with volunteers but they’ve consistently released information on their situation. I say that in particular as this summer their ground at Sawston is very nearly complete and they did a great update two weeks ago detailing why they couldn’t move in yet.

Hilarious if there was any truth - being played at your own games

That great hope of football the US being poor again.

These pair have had a good go at outdoing England. That goal was very Southgate

Well it obviously does. Three individual points 1. The inability to increase our revenues after the most successful period the club has ever had has led to a direct impact on our ability to perform on the field ie. failure to adhere to FFP and the subsequent point deductions. 2. Ticket demand is higher than a 32,500 stadium - without even going into the ticket price/membership argument, it's stopped people from watching top flight football and maximising not only your ticket sales but also merchandise on the day sales - back to point 1. 3. Finally, ambition. This is less defined but a supporter wants to feel that his club is forever striding to improve. In process you become more attractive to potential signings - you look like a club heading towards a sustainable level that the club is worthy of.

Nothing out of the ordinary for projects of this nature. I'd fully expect the consultancy that LCFC are using to project manage this to have the relevant contacts. The majority of the conditions as well at this stage don't stop construction either - it's common practice to work on these conditions whilst construction occurs and 'tick them off' throughout. If anything is overhanging, it stops occupation of the construction as opposed to the actual construction.

I read it as 'racial or social....injustice' rather injustice in a wider sense.

See I simply don't want to spend time people who aren't alert to racial or social discrimination and injustice. That's a basic moral to live your life from. It's not interesting or challenging rather ignorant imo.

Nice and easy then to release a statement saying the club want to establish themselves in the Premier League then before pushing forward - realistically the club won't able to start anything until next summer now - tendering process (or re-tender) plus site set-up makes it incredibly difficult now (construction industry member here ). Looking at fixtures, November there's a four week gap where they might be able to get something started. As I have said I see more consultation from such matters from non-league clubs than a multi-million pound turnover professional

I'd rather have a load of friends who are 'woke' than not quite simply

Dates are never fixed with construction, anyone with a balanced head can understand that - things always get delayed or altered or changed, it just happens. An explanation around how and why this has occurred is fine and doesn't need to be warts n all. I see more updates from someone like Cambridge City and their new stadium than a football club like our own.

Makes you think Col Le Tiss

The plan has been to follow Liverpool's recent development of Anfield Road Stand and the main stand - ie. no capacity reductions. Throw in the recent prices increases as well - I don't foresee the incoming revenue any worse off. There's no need for a 'concrete' announcement. A polite update as to targeted dates etc, if tendering has progressed, the next stages in planning the project. As it stands, permission is given and everything is just sitting there. Clubs clubs such as Villa and Wolves have gone on record to say their plans are currently paused. At LCFC, no information either way. It's frustrating given it's an obstacle in other stadium related pieces such as the terrible service to food/drink outlets, safe standing and cynically the use of higher demand with a smaller capacity.

No bigger indicator of where LCFC and the ownership are at the moment than this. This is one of their biggest ways of increasing revenue. August 2021 - the initial plans were revealed. There has been zero official word on what's happening with it after permission given in December 2023.

Every train I've seen between Calais to Lens is a 1hr 30 plus involving a change.

Drive - Calais to Lens is 62 miles. You can get a ferry for £133 which should be do-able. Eurotunnel far more expensive.

Tbf KDH was injured at the end of the season, so very likely he was in for rehab stuff

Doesn’t really tally with our most recent internationals tbh. Justin for example. Or how Chilwell and Maddison have been excluded as Chelsea or Spurs players

Disagree on that point personally - think he has a bigger window at Leicester for England selection as proven by the likes of Wharton and Eze for Palace

We will now see a load of folk buy tickets and not use them. Happened before with pre-season games where the tickets are cheap.

I suspect 90% of footballers would given they want to play on the biggest stage possible.even if lcfc paid him the same or they was no need for FFP Particularly in light that LCFC’s prospects for achieving success aren’t great. At 26, this is probably his last chance to make the leap towards a bigger club and grab a decent contract (he will be 30 to 32 when it expires).

I shouldn’t be surprised as much by how people have taken losing KDH. Maybe the penny might finally be dropping on how irresponsible the top level of the hierarchy have been financially. This KDH deal has been in the offering as early as December

Absolutely certain Cooper would have been aware that KDH would be sold

Great to see them go up San Luca in Bologna. I was there in February. Hard enough walking up it in the porticos

Makes you think Col, really does
