| Please see the thread Entitled Big Mistake, 16 pages on there with regards to the sale of the shay, Tony abbott still going about his business and trying to buy it.
Football fans crying constantly that "its not fair" etc and throwing their teddies out of the pram. It will be a long drawn out affair and ultimatly is only a matter of time before a new owner takes over, in whatever guise that turns out to be as the council cannot afford to have this assett bleeding them dry with upkeep costs for a stadium that very few of the community visit ( if any even have ).

As long as the puffball fans keep thinking it's a huge joke, it'll do for me.

As said on the "Big Mistake", the Shay is losing a small amount of money. Not enough to warrant being titled as "bleeding them dry"

| On the contrary. Why has the deal taken over a month longer than the 2-3 weeks we were promised by Mr Abbott?

| Ah so now we see why you're backing this man. You'll follow anything that someone will make you believe is true. Thanks for clarifying.

| I listen to professionals. Sometimes they're wrong. Mostly they're right.
Tony Abbott is right.

And you're basing this on hypothetical scenarios?
If he wants a place for his new jobs why does he needs the Shay? What about the old Laura Mitchell Clinic?
Are we also trusting a man who claimed he has had no involvement in pay day loan companies?
Remember, Abbott was wrong about the whole 2-3 weeks.

£250K per annum you call that small??
I don't as a Calderdale Council taxpayer and the Majority of residents don't either.

Vaz is the type of "politician" I would expect people like KnobboffNigel and Stupidgeoff (Blubba) to align themselves to.
Only trouble is, you two, Vaz wants to increase the capacity, you don't see the need, and he wants to improve the ground, which you two don't see the need.
Apart from that all he says is great,
Strange thing is, Mr Abbott will buy the ground, get used to it.
Question? When Mr Abbott owns the ground and delivers all his promises will you ever admit you were wrong?
editors note,
Keith Vaz is a Member of Parliament for Leicester East, a corrupt politician, www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article ... court.html
No wonder he has aligned himself to Knoboffnigel and co.
Yes I know the letter is a spoof, but do Town fans know?

It's only the same as you pinning your hopes on a bunch of part time politicians and a stadium that apparently doesn't erode or weather with time. Abbott's magic beans are no worse than the council's.
Commercial sense should win through at the end of this process with Abbott taking over our stadium and sweating the assets therein. The clubs (with Abbots help) must step up to the plate and come up with a plan to get more Calderdale people watching the respective sporting events.

Our stadium? The Shay is no more the rugby clubs as it is the Footballs. It is owned by the council.

| I said "ours" as joint attendees. See, take off your rugby-hating specs and come back to the table. It's clouding your judgement. It's clouding most of the FC Town fan's judgement. That's the crux of your protest isn't it? Tony Abbott's an egg chaser.
Pathetic.

Hypothetical question which I have asked FCHT fans on Facebook without reply: If and when CMBC announce that they are officially putting the Shay on the market would you rather it was bought by TA/Reactiv (or indeed anyone else who wishes to continue to run it as a stadium) or would you rather it went to a Property Developer who would bulldoze it?

Because the council need the money and personally I'm not all that bothered whether the council retain ownership or it goes to Reactiv (although I slightly favour the latter option). What worries me is that with their hatred for all things Fax FCHT fans would rather see the Shay razed to the ground than fall into the hands of TA/Reactiv. They are constantly stating that he is trying to get it on the cheap but that is with the stipulation that it remains a sports stadium which limits it's value to a potential purchaser. To realise it's full value that stipulation would need to be removed.
