Re: Truth ?.. or merely Telegraph Hype ?.
as far as I know - using some truths and then fleshing it out.<br />
<br />
the funding wouldn't have been 100% of the total cost - we don't have any money to add to the 90% or whatever so that's a cross in box 1<br />
<br />
as part of the application process we would have had to undergo thorough financial investigations to ensure that we are a business worth 'investing' in. I am not for one minute saying we are crooked, but we still haven't filed last years accounts so we would be putting a cross in box 2<br />
<br />
the club do not want to build something that is based on other public bodies perceptions of what a football club should build, ie a seated stand is no use to us, we'd much rather have a terrace. Grants are dependant on seated stadia so that's a cross in box 3<br />
<br />
<br />
any application would have been a waste of time, effort and money so none was made.<br />
<br />
In my honest opinion.
