That’s 10 in a row for Donny. They are highly likely to make play offs now. Barrow still have it in their own hands.

Hopefully Crawley beat Grimsby and Barrow fail to beat Mansfield.
In this scenario Bradford and Barrow both miss out on playoffs.

Well as i said a get outable lease would have suited both sides All you do is have a very unlikely to happen clause included in it It therefore meets the EFL.s requirements but if they want to get out of it a few years down the line the club and the council conspire to make the unlikely event happen. Its very unlikely the council would want them to leave its money for nothing for them If the club wanted to leave in a measured way you cant see the council thwarting their plans by insisting they serve their full term and if they were leaving to move to a new ground that meets the EFL requirements they wouldnt have a problem with that you wouldnt think. Be interesting to know what the EFL.s issue was with the lease the council eventually offered was. I would have thought one which guaranteed the club a ten year lease but which could be broken by the club by giving say two years notice would have been something they could accept if the club suddenly found themselves with the opportunity of a brand spanking new ground nearby. The length of a lease is measured until the first cancellable date. You think the fa were born yesterday?! A 10 year rental on a football ground is a short term lease, operating lease, so it doesn't go in the balance sheet. Blame Burnley for all this, they lost their case No i dont think they are but then again this wasnt anything to do with them If both parties in a lease insert a breakable clause in a lease there is nothing a 3rd party can do about it [ other than try suing if it caused them financial losses ] and that doesnt make a 10 year lease not a ten year lease

Believe the council are looking to offload the ground to a Management company and let them take it on, having a 10 year lease would have scuppered the deal. That would explain quite a lot Moose But it doesnt explain why if they thought they were being shafted they didnt go public and let their fans go to town on the council its officers and most importantly in the run up to an election the local councillors.

Tim, do you know what's happening with Peterborough? The Canadian owners took 17m from an investment fund and gave it to a company which loaned it to Peterborough, secured over half the ground? Is that correct? The fund investors have won their case to liquidate the middle company, so now they will come to England to recover assets from Peterborough fc? Northampton never repaid the 10m that disappeared from the loans for their half built wreck. But Gateshead are out MacAnthony has always been very adamant that however the court cases go it cannot affect the football club or its tenure at the stadium.

Oh for the days, when a town and its council would care about the club, and its best interests. Now it`s all about contracts, and who`s owed money, rather than them all banding together, to do what would benefit the club first.

It's not even a law, it's an accounting principle. The Peterborough thing was really interesting. I know what the chairman is saying, but the fund investors are saying they want the ground. I have no idea what their chances of winning are, but their next step is to come here. Let's see how it goes, or if the two guys who took the money can replace it. It just peaked my interest because my impression was that the player sales meant they were debt free. They made a million profit last year. Here's a question for a conspiracy theory. Why have they revalued the ground? There is supposedly no debt, so what's the point of that? The revalued amount is exactly 5x the amount of the debt they took from Day. What's the significance of that ratio?

Solihull Moors game nearly over and they are 4-2 up which is a shame as it would have been nice if Halifax got back into the league.
Bad luck for Gateshead being kicked out so I hope that Altringham win it now, then Solihull Moors, Bromley and then Barnet.

F***ing Solihull Moors.
Change it to 1 up 1 down between EFL and NL.

Good that Boreham Wood went down.
Their behaviour up here a decade ago in the FA Cup showed that have no class.

Aye the good options are falling one by one 20 minutes on the train and 3.5k away terrace whats not to like ? Bet we end up with bloody Bromley at least Barnet has decent facilities and a smart new 2.5k away end.

Delighted to hear boreham wood went down, horrible little club, and hope they never see higher than the Conf South again.
And no to barnet, and hope they soon join them.

Looking like the Lancashire lot might miss out of the playoffs by a point.
