Animal is a Ram Posted June 30, 2022 Share Posted June 30, 2022 (edited) 23 minutes ago, Curtains said: What does this actually mean mate I assume he paid MM not MSD Cheap bargain from Mel then ! The long explanation: Previously, Pride Park Stadium was owned by Gellaw Newco 202, which in turn was controlled by Gellaw Newco 204 (Mel). Neither of which were in administration. Now, Gellaw Newco 202 is owned by Totem Newco (Clowes). Pride Park still belongs to 202. While Mel (Newco 204) got the money, he will essentially send that money to MSD - as the MSD loan is charged against 204. In non-business terms, it's almost as if the house (£80m) hasn't been bought, he's bought the mortgage for what's already been paid off (c£23m). NB: not an accountant, and it's a bit of a scuffed analogy. Edited June 30, 2022 by Animal is a Ram Phuket Ram, Curtains and LazloW 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Animal is a Ram Posted June 30, 2022 Share Posted June 30, 2022 My educated guess would be the Locko family for the lease of Moor Farm. Otherwise, we're gifting Wycombe Wanderers a car park extension. TuffLuff, Caerphilly Ram, PistoldPete and 6 others 1 2 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't wish what we've gone through on any fan, but after the vitriol we've had from a surprisingly large section of fans from these clubs, and are still getting in some quarters on Twitter, I'd love to see them suffer.....just a bit. And yes, I know it's not their whole fan base. I genuinely wouldn't want any club to fold, regardless, but a taste of what we've suffered would sit fine with me.

Mostyn6 Posted June 30, 2022 Share Posted June 30, 2022 16 minutes ago, StrawHillRam said: And Boro and WW ? - Boro fans have to support Boro, live in Middlesbrough and are possibly all from the same Gene-pool as Steve Bamford Gibson - Wycombe fans have to endure an owner and a manager who think they should be Woodstock roadies in 1969. They also will never experience being a decent football club with notoriety or fame. I think they have and will suffer enough sub-mediocre obscurity for all 72 EFL clubs combined. That said, I've never met a fan, so have no positive, nor negative feelings towards the fanbase. Stoke on the other hand, almost all their fans can sit on Cacti as far as I am concerned. i-Ram, Ramslad1992, Jackal and 1 other 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My view on this, rather than “I wouldn’t want other fans to go through this”, is that perhaps “All other fans should go through this”. It’s the only way everyone will understand, and stop throwing around ridiculous statements about loving other clubs to go bust. I wouldn’t want any other club to go bust, not really, not even those listed above, but a lot of fans from each of those could do with a cold hard dose of reality and humility.

No. Every club has its d******** (we've more than most!) but the vast majority of fans are just like us, no choice but to follow their team through thick and thin. I might laugh at certain clubs losing but I would never wish any club to go out of business.

I'd add Birmingham for their fans' behaviour at PPS last season. Massive problems of their own, protesting about their owner etc yet still (en-masse) sing the song about us dying, then at the end of the game start throwing things (including a metal e-cig which could have caused serious damage) at us.
