Do they do Ukrainian cider?

Sounds familiar.

Tha no use to me mate, like a said!,,, av heard that allotment folk seek such stuff, so shift the lot if you can. Am sure the rest of the guys won't complain. BTW,,, a do have another pair of wellies (almost brand new, been round the heap once),,, size 9, £93.01 paid, £60 to you?,,, al chuck in a new pair of socks for nowt.

Dunno what your on about?

Is/was Paul ever a Diamonds asset?

Ambiguous at best.

Awkward injury, best wishes on a good recovery.

A sore knee?

Tha not for sale mate (yet), as John says they'll probably end up in the bin,,, so fill ya boots. Ye could've had me wellies but they've already gone.

That shale is priceless,,, blended with a little bit of sand will give you a nice loam.

Dunno, could depend on the soil type and N P and K levels?

He's proper on one today!,,, maybe it just comes natural?,,, woe betide anyone that criticises anything he's involved with, whether in jest or not.

Chuck them covers in the bin, am well shot of them,,, me wellies have gone too!!!,,, as for me tape, well,,, we go back a long way (about 5 metres). A thought Grant was doing the best for the clubs future, dunno about a sound footing? Wasn't Dickens the guy that had the shop at Shiremoor?

Too many funny words there John, a didn't do Shakespeare,,, what does it mean in lamens terms?

Ok John, that little comment on the Sunderland dogs thing, was more of a 'beware' thing. I would/will make a personal apology to anyone that could run speedway at Brough Park (under current restrictions) and make a success of it.

and am sure you know it was?

Sunderland Greyhound Stadium + Arc =

Arr aye, thanks John. You normally have a lot to say. 'Better the devil you know' eh?

From what am led to believe, the 60k will cover your bonds and stuff and, leave you with a little bit of change to purchase a good percentage of anything useful that's left to help with running a meeting. Best get in quick for the shale, before the local vultures get it. Ad think that any prospective owners would need to contact the BSPL and arrange a meeting with the landlords to discuss they're plans.

Yeah but John, at least the Edinburgh project looks like it will be a proper stadium. Not just some old field with some mud hills on it and a couple of makeshift scaffold seating areas? So maybe a 150k budget might get something started, like what has happened at Northside?,,, 'Dream of less and you could end up with more'. BTW, a wonder if the Edinburgh project, when finished, will look like the picture?

Start over again, build from scratch?

Well am sure there is someone out there with what it takes to take it on.

Well is it?

Does the 60k include any BSPL bonds needed, or is that just to take the club over and acquire its assets?

Does he really need to do anything to put perspective owners off? Surely any genuine offers would be considered.
