Re: Truth ?.. or merely Telegraph Hype ?.

[quote=maccawozzagod;821593]as far as I know - using some truths and then fleshing it out.<br />
<br />
the funding wouldn't have been 100% of the total cost - we don't have any money to add to the 90% or whatever so that's a cross in box 1<br />
<br />
as part of the application process we would have had to undergo thorough financial investigations to ensure that we are a business worth 'investing' in. I am not for one minute saying we are crooked, but we still haven't filed last years accounts so we would be putting a cross in box 2<br />
<br />
the club do not want to build something that is based on other public bodies perceptions of what a football club should build, ie a seated stand is no use to us, we'd much rather have a terrace. Grants are dependant on seated stadia so that's a cross in box 3<br />
<br />
<br />
any application would have been a waste of time, effort and money so none was made.<br />
<br />

This is exactly what I understood to be the case Macca. However to continue to keep on finding reports in the press which seem to outline glaring inadequacies in the administration of THE Club's development, does little to improve the ill-will which appears to be ever-more apparent in the opinions expressed by so many of it's Fans who really DO have a real concern for it's well-being.
Perhaps more accurate and comprehensive press releases (If that is what the Telegraph et al base their reports upon ?) might be what is missing !...
I continue to worry !.
