So they need £45,000,000 to secure their future. Surely that's only £125 each for the big club.Quote:

However, that does not mean that they will settle for FOH's (or any other person chancing it) potential offer "in the low millions". They will be trying to maximise the recovery on behalf of Lithuanian taxpayers. This is why I think that there is a very good chance of the club and their ground being separated: anyone with the desire to save the club is not going to have the resources to satisfy the liquidator - only an open market sale of the land will achieve that.
Afraid not, think there might be a delay on that new stand as well.Quote:

Yeah and that was all down to an Administrator who was crooked and in Bed with Green & CoQuote:

We just need to hope that Housebuilders/Supermarkets/Developers have an interest in the site which is far from certain. There are no meaningful offers on the table for the club so there shouldn't be much competition from consortia.Quote:

Things continue to move in the right direction anyway.
As someone has already said, one of the key differences is that the liquidator of UBIG/Ukio will not settle for a pishy deal the way Dumb & Dumber did. The Lithuanian authorities will be looking to maximise the recovery and will not be concerned about saving face in Edinburgh.Quote:

Blinkered Yam at work is very confident there are no financial issues at the PBS and if so David Murray will come to their rescue with a share if a new stadium in the west of city to share with Edinburgh rugby.
Would only say their debt is nowhere near the 25 mill mark and that they have plenty if dish out aside for wages already this and next season from share issue etc.
He's not wrong. I can't see them having any problems. It'll all be plain sailing.Quote:

They will if they're in the bottom 6, Shirley?Quote:

If we do finish bottom six I won't be going to the game at the peadodome for the first time in years. Haven't missed a derby there for at least 5 years, but there is no way I want to play any part in helping them struggle on until the end of the season.Quote:
