    Kassam Stadium - Asset of Community Value

    Hi. That's useful. Thanks. I am not a lawyer but I have wondered whether the covenant could be wriggled out of in that instance....cheers

    Kassam Stadium - Asset of Community Value

    Hi. Serious question. Can Kassam overturn the covenant if he gifts to OUFC a ground that is of L1 standard? For example, if he bought Court Place Farm, expanded it to 6k capacity etc., could he then apply to have the covenant declared null and void on the basis he had provided an adequate...

    Why would it be true? Oldest trick in the book Looking at 'exciting' signings none of whom come off. Remember the Venky's? When they came in they were 'looking at' signing Beckham and Ronaldo......

    There has been a huge whiff of bs about our transfer dealings all summer. We have sold two players for c£1.0m, have released c. 10 more, have released one of our best players as we didn't want to activate the second year of his contract. And in return? We have signed one player for a fee (btw...

    Nope- but it's a pretty reasonable assumption given the difficulties we appear to be having in converting 'targets'.....

    Correct. We have seen no evidence of a credible plan. And at the risk of repeating myself, renting a new training ground from the council, creating a 'new' u23 team (basically re badging what we already had) is not evidence of appropriate funding. We are obviously struggling to get good...

    Forward line

    Bang on. This underlines exactly what quite a few of us have been saying since the takeover. It's all very well having big plans, but it's generally a good idea to back them up with cash. The difficulties we have been having with recruitment indicate (and this is putting it politely) there is a...

    What are peoples expectations for this season?

    Eh? The players have nice cars. Therefore this proves Tiger is investing at the level he promised. Not sure I follow the logic of that one. ..

    Ex Player Alfie Potter

    He'll do well at Swindon. Small club. Low expectations. Mid table L2 and their fanbase will be happy......

    What are peoples expectations for this season?

    Great. But it’s a facility rented from the council. It is nothing to do with Tiger and his investment.....

    What are peoples expectations for this season?

    Maybe I am just a cynic, but given Tiger’s apparent reluctance (thus far) to make significant investments in players, I find it literally unbelievable that he would spend £400k on two players before he bought the club. And don’t forget it would be in Eales interests to ‘big up’ his prospective...

    What are peoples expectations for this season?

    No, I am not doing it for reaction. I am genuinely concerned about where Tiger’s ownership will take us. I thought his statements in the first few weeks were ridiculous, and they reminded me (in a very bad way) of early Kassam and his ‘journey’. Quite a lot of people seem to be confusing...

    Transfer targets?

    Please do. And also try and learn some manners in the next few months.
