I thought Cowan said no further negotiations and now he is negotiating.

Then hopefully he will be told no chance, as otherwise it would make Cowans statement & ultimatum pointless?.
Cheers Smiffy.
For some other folk on here, I didn't want to mention it before, but Cllr Cowan never said there will be no more negotiations. He said there would be no more negotiations if COSU walk away, and that in any event there needed to be a deal agreed by Friday 21st June. He didn't say it must be identical to the one sent to Ron at the weekend. The clear implication, confirmed by his tweet just now, is that negotiations on the Council's offer can continue up to Friday but no further.
Hence, Anna Firth's offer wasn't 'badly timed', a 'cheap stunt' or anything of the sort - it was a perfectly reasonable offer to chair a meeting from someone who has very clearly been a party to this process.
Anyone can chair a meeting of this kind - any one of us could do it if we were invited and we wanted to. So let's cut out the silliness, and at times plain nastiness, and park party politics on this subject please.
Cllr Cowan AND Anna Firth both want to do whatever they can to help.
Anna clearly could help, and I would personally plead with Cllr Cowan to not snub any idea which, in the end, may well be needed or might make a difference - wherever it comes from.

By that comment i assume the statement will be from the Rat's rodents, if not then by who?.

Speaking for myself, this long drawn out 'war & peace' scenario hasn't affected mine. Yes, it's been so frustrating nigh on weekly, but in all honestly did anyone expect an easy deal knowing the Rat's complex web of dealings over the last 2 decades?.

Yes but I looked back over all the statements/conversations and this wasn’t the case. SCC have made clear what it needs to look like and the red lines but it’s for the developers to make it work- and by the sounds of it they are negotiating on the basis that Friday is the deadline by which it needs to be agreed…

I know Linda, it's a horrible feeling when you know you've been had. I'm sorry for your pain.

It's possible that a statement won't be released until after 6pm which may affect the numbers present?.
I asked the question on Saturday about why Friday's protest is at Leigh Station.? I've yet to have a reply??.

I think rather than publicising his address they are just announcing a meeting point nearby.

I believe it's something to do with one of Ron's sons

Amazingly just about everyone on here has bought into the concept that this coming Friday is a final deadline. Frankly I don’t believe that for a moment. I do believe COSU will walk if talks are not going in the right direction.
Fully expecting another statement confirming positive developments, talks continuing blah blah blah.

If it is a statement from Ron, I'd be curious to see what channels this is done through.
Surely won't be on the club website as he's not running the club- yes still owns it.
Is that a prepared statement to either the Echo or more likely BBC Essex, or potentially a phone in.
I would imagine his kink with Talksport has concluded
