Disappointing not hear any questions about the stadium toilets ?
Wonder what positions these players are, it's not rb as robbo said there looking at 4 options for that position
That was my interpretation too. KR was talking about options to replace Cadden.Reading it on Oxford Mail it sounded like they were all right backs, or have I read that wrong?
Both are cheaper in Poland, right?Would love a pre season in Poland. Great booze and loads of lovely ladies, instead it came across that Holland was likely.
Yes really good to know the city council and county council are supportive, bodes well long term for the club IMO.No rent on the training ground was a surprise to me ( had I missed this before?)
That sounds like a really good deal.

There are some lovely ladies in Holland but you’ve got to pay......so I’m toldWould love a pre season in Poland. Great booze and loads of lovely ladies, instead it came across that Holland was likely.
The stadium position was less positive from the OM feeds? Bigalan/ Sarge?
It appears that Zaki and Niall were suggesting that the key thing is to have income from the stadium ( even if the Kasdam). Zaki before has said that a key thing is for the club to have their assets when discussing the Stadium.
I am not sure that Mr Kassam will want the club to have a better lease
That wouldn't happen. Ground share and lose a lot of the support and ruineverything that the club us trying to do? See Coventry City.There keeping tight lipped on the stadium issue so I wouldn't read too much in to that. What did go through my head earlier though was once the lease runs out. What would happen if we decided to do a Coventry and ground share. Wouldn't kassam be stuck with a stadium he could not knock down as doesnt it have a condition imposed that it is a community asset for leisure (not sure on exact wording) maybe just maybe this is why he has started to be Mr nice guy in the last few weeks.
Good point but I dont think the club would be allowed to do that? I think the agreement as it stands works both ways and, as such, the club are obliged to play at the stadium under the existing terms of the lease. Zaki reiterated again this evening about being very aware of the timescale, as the terms of the existing lease automatically renews under the same conditions as things stand.There keeping tight lipped on the stadium issue so I wouldn't read too much in to that.

I dont think that it automatically renews.Didn't realise the lease automatically renews for another 25 years. ? New stadium it is then unless kassam going to gift it us of course ?
I dont think that it automatically renews.
The club have an option to renew for a further 25 years at the current rate if it chooses I believe.
Yes but why would Kassam agree to that?That sounds better. Atleast if it comes to it we can try for a better lease that won't limit what time we're allowed in to the stadium on match days, hosting events and in charge of the catering.
Yes but why would Kassam agree to that?
He can say that we have to renew for 25 years on the current terms or leave?
I cant see why he would agree to us having better terms?
