Quoted from pizzzza
Always amazes me how many people on here are in the know or "been told...". They also always seem to post after the news has broke funnily enough  


Sometimes, folk get told stuff in confidence and don't break that confidence. I hear stuff from time to time, and only ever pass on what i think is credible, unless told specifically to keep it to myself. I was told for instance that Hooper was on his way out, and was going to Chesterfield. I posted that info and indeed he was out on loan within days, but not to Chesterfield, so the info was partly right. My brother was told on the Friday night before the Blackpool game that Bignot was out and Slade was coming back. He texted me the info, and we both thought it was bollox, so thought no more about it. Both those pieces of info came from the same source, so you tend to give those sorts of people more credence.

Sometimes you hear stuff quite monumental and think it has no legs, but turns our to be correct. I'm sure there are people who claim to be "in the know" and actually know nothing, but there are always some who seem to have relevant gossip.

As regards takeovers and a Freemo stadium, I've not heard anything concrete personally, but have heard plenty that sounds feasible, just not feasible enough to comment on. One thing we know almost for sure, is that Peaks Parkway and Extreme is dead in the water, so unless the idea of a new stadium has been totally ditched altogether, there must be discussions going on at some level as to where and when a new stadium can be realised.

By the way Ipswin, JF was alive and well at the game on New Years day.

“Freemo stadium, I've not heard anything concrete”

Is it going to be wooden like Village green then Ginny? 😉

Regarding the Freeman street stadium in the Telegraph today Councillor Oxby said there is still no definite plan for GTFC to move there  


When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

'Once flattened, and with renewed business interest in the area thanks to the burgeoning offshore wind industry, the vision is to replace the old buildings with a mixture of state-of-the-art offices, modern eco-friendly housing, some retail units and a landscaped public space and a spanking new stadium for GTFC'

I would imagine he's so busy planning where to cause more traffic chaos, than thinking about Stadiums.

Is John Fenty actually still alive? I've never known him keep his gob shut for so long



I've heard that he has a home in Belarus  and spends a lot of time there.

Good for them if that's the case! If I find myself in my bedroom with too much time on my hands I just end up wanking myself silly.




Have you achieved your goal yet then ?

I didn't think Slade would be such a disaster so probably!

Heard a major announcement to be issued in Feb .... with ABP & Dong Energy involved...not Freemo either.  Dont particularly hold out much credibility to it apart from i think the last word from the club when questioned about Freemo was that PP was off and they were looking at an alternative site that wasnt Freemo....which ties in with what i heard yesterday.
