Pre-Match Thread HMRC v SUFC - FINAL hearing on 1st March. DISMISSED

[TJC]

Seems they are a little more than just a local hire a micro digger outfit. Sent a fleet of new 9 ton swivel dumpers to work on hs2

 

[Mr Browns Ghost]

At least the new training pitches have been built and we still have a thread on what people want in the new stadium. I’m hoping for a tour of the grass field this Saturday whilst the match against York is called off

 

[Holy Joe]

I believe the game will be P-P if there is no medical staff on site, same goes for stewarding too as I've just mentioned above. Basic H&S that is

Could it just be played behind closed doors if no stewards?

 

[GBJ]

This is ****ing mental.

Why has the shirt sponsor got so much to say about this!

The worry I have is that Ron has given this mob the spiel, and they’ve fallen for it.

There are only 2 real possibilities in play here, no?

1) They’ve fallen for the silver-tongued serpent’s charm, just as so many others have in the past.

2) They’re planning on lending money to the club (incidentally, do we have any building work lined up in the near future, which would require any of PG Site Services, services? )

Hypothetically? But again in the face of potential protests, security would be needed regardless I reckon.

Yeah. Less likely to be point one though with Tom having a foot in both camps no?

Imagine TL as a non-exec Director of PG Site Services has been asked by RM to ask them to put something out to pacify.

That, and/or he's been on the beers again.

Ask Tom lawrence. He’s a company director

 

[hlane17]

Possibly because our CEO is a non-exec Director of PG Site Services and has been asked by RM to ask them to put something out to pacify.

That, and/or he's been on the beers again.

The PG Site Services twitter page is talking in a suspiciously RM manner

 

[GBJ]

You’d like to think so.

 

[GBJ]

Could it just be played behind closed doors if no stewards?

Without stewards, probably. But medical staff and emergency transport would be mandatory, I’d have thought. I’m trying to recall the games that took place behind closed doors, during the peak Covid days and who was/wasn’t on site.

Yeah let’s see if the tweets are still there in the morning.

 

[GBJ]

Yeah let’s see if the tweets are still there in the morning.

They’ve shot their bolt now though. Delete the messages & it’ll just fuel the fire.

 

[Kat_r]

Yeah let’s see if the tweets are still there in the morning.

This is getting all very strange!!!

 

[hlane17]

Am I the only one who thinks a sponsor should not be privy to such detailed information (if they actually are privy to anything that is, and not just deflecting) about the football club and its internal running?

Maybe people who have sponsored the club can help me out on this point. Not alleging anything, just thinking out loud.

It seems PG Site are confident that Ron will ‘deliver’

 

[sufcfed]

just a rumour I heard, but the training ground will be ready to use this week or next. Would this then release funds with boots and laces being vacant?

I would be surprised as grass can't yet be fully established. On tour of training they were hopeful for march with some mild weather.
We've had a couple of cold snaps so would think march is the best hope?

Think it was supposed to be March but was pushed back to the offseason

No. But it‘s easier to get access to the people in the know if you wanted to.
