    [Albion] Who is the Albion's greatest ever cult hero...

    Not many, around a dozen. Bill Cassidy is my nominee, a complete joker.

    Amex hotel proposal will be decided at BHCC Planning Committee 17th February

    Not necessarily but in this case very much yes.

    [Albion] Help the club's hotel and cancer unit planning application

    Fair enough, full details of the exchanges between the Council and applicant are not available, and having been at a planning committee meeting all evening perhaps I was a bit terse. However, it is clear from the officers' report that at the pre-application discussion stage the Councillors...

    [Albion] Help the club's hotel and cancer unit planning application

    In its current form no thanks Paul/Darren. Having read the planning officer's report they have reasonable points both aesthetically and in law which could and should have been resolved by the applicant before now. Personally, I think the external design is uninspiring and not in keeping with...

    Amex hotel proposal will be decided at BHCC Planning Committee 17th February

    And anyone reading the planning officer's report will see that they don't think it does and why. Seemingly not taking on board Councillors' pre-application comments/requests/suggestions on the design and then, more or less, showing two fingers to a couple of fairly standard S106 commitments...

    Buying advance rail tickets

    All fourteen emails I received on this offer in the space of a minute a few days back stated: "............Tickets are available 12 weeks in advance of departure right up until 6pm the night before you travel so you can even make those last minute celebrations........" Essentially, you can...

    Superbowl 50 Carolina Panthers v Denver Broncos ***Official Match Thread***

    I found the Ireland vs Wales game bad enough; however, the SB was really grim watching imo so went to bed at HT and carried on reading a biography of Cicero.

    Amex hotel proposal will be decided at BHCC Planning Committee 17th February

    But whether a development is sustainable is. If deemed economically unviable then it could be argued that a development is not sustainable.

    Amex hotel proposal will be decided at BHCC Planning Committee 17th February

    If the hotel is designed to generate income for the business I would think, and hope, that the Crosthwaites report can be readily refuted. However, if the application doesn't demonstrate commercial viability and the Community Stadium Ltd doesn't get the development costs back over 50 years then...

    Season Ticket Holders.... How many games will you miss this season because of Sky?

    I haven't, and won't, miss any home game because of Sky. However, I will probably only make 12-14 in total due largely to holidays and other personal commitments. Our son, who lives in London, will be at a few less; others in our 'group' have a home in Scotland and also spend extensive time...

    Good piece on Bolton's plight

    BWFAC's financial year ends on 30 June so, like all other limited companies, their annual accounts have to be lodged at Companies House within nine months of the end of the financial period, ie by 31 March of the following year. Thus, their accounts for 2014/15 have to be submitted by 31 March...

    Good piece on Bolton's plight

    Bolton Wanderers FC (or more accurately The Bolton Wanderers Football and Athletic Club Limited) is a member of the FL and was incorporated in 1895; it owns the Macron Stadium and the on-site Bolton Whites Hotel is a wholly owned subsidiary since De Vere pulled out of a joint holding (ie sold...

    Realistic Loanee Strikers

    Where would the money to cover expenditure on loan player(s) come from then?

    Sky Sports reporting that 2 championship clubs have bid for Jordan Rhodes....

    The FFP 'spreading' of annual losses over three seasons (ie to a maximum of £39 million in total) doesn't start until July 2016/17; for this season the maximum loss allowed is £13 million. Having said that, I too expect 'Boro to comply this season.

    Sky Sports reporting that 2 championship clubs have bid for Jordan Rhodes....

    But £30 million spent on player purchase this season will, assuming the average contract length is 4 years, only 'cost' the business/club £7.5 million in amortisation/depreciation in the current year's accounts (but the same amount for the next 3 years too). If player signs mid-way through the...

    Bamford

    Using your football and business backgrounds/knowledge why don't you have a stab at costing this? Purchase price, length of contract, agent's fee, annual costs (salary/NI/pension etc), source(s) of initial and ongoing funding (eg more debt, existing resources, ANO)

    Anyone on nsc had cosmetic surgery?

    Three times, all for trauma injury repair - left shoulder, head, lower front abdomen.

    Nice to see the Environment Agency boss is finally back from his Carribean holiday

    Agree in spades but it is his business to do what he wants with, thereby setting an example to all.

    Night games - what was your first?

    It may have been a season or two later G; Hugh Curran, Derek Dougan and Kenny Hibbitt (I think) were playing for Wolves. Anyone in the 5th or 6th forms at Hove CGS at the time including (@NotAndyNaylor) should remember this one as the school Speech Day had been moved to that evening. From...
