Sheffield council will end up buying them a brand new super stadium and rent it to them for about 39p a season. Think West Ham. It's the Wednesday way. They have already done that, without the 39p a season. They didn't pay a penny for Bramall Lane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skyline Posted March 26, 2020 Share Posted March 26, 2020 The Prince and his advisers obviously didn't read the agreement thoroughly did they. Not that it will come to it, as McCabe will eventually agree a price that is lower than what he wants, but higher than the Prince thought. But if it did... Where in Sheffield can they realistically build a new stadium? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrickyTrev Posted March 26, 2020 Share Posted March 26, 2020 A quick look on the scrubbers forum and they are suggesting that there are areas of land in the Sty's “footprint” that are proving the sticking point, most notably areas of land behind the kop where McCabe intends to build flats which would greatly hinder fan numbers entering and leaving the stadium. I’ve always thought that area was rather unsightly and over crowded, it’d be such a shame to see a load of flats crammed in there too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I saw that and posted the amounts of last seasons payments in another thread. Trouble is I can't remember where I saw it or which thread I posted it in.

TrickyTrev Posted March 27, 2020 Share Posted March 27, 2020 There’s something about this “Prince” that would sit uneasy with me if I were a pig. Trying to get a third party to buy the stadium rather than himself then going to the fans ranting about McCabe when he’s not allowed. Wreaks of him not having any money and if he does have to buy it himself, here’s hoping he uses Wilders transfer fund. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-8157587/Kevin-McCabe-considering-legal-action-against-Prince-Abdullah-amid-power-struggle-Bramall-Lane.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But yeah..........it stinks of him being skint.........that was always what McCabe maintained though. McCabe will still get his money, just depends on how long it rumbles on and the Prince has the perfect excuse for not investing in the team whilst it does.

Vas Borbokis? Steve Kabba? Never mind, I’ll take another look at our Waddle thread elsewhere onOT.
