CW that's a point, didn't they still owe us money from compensation for not playing a friendly either from that or possibly from the Castledine sale?

Think we got 2 friendlies with Chelsea too only one of which was played, presumably got some compo from their loose change for the other

Henry VIII drove all the local folk out to build Nonsuch Palace and hunting grounds. Perhaps this was an act of resistance. Like that Bristol statue, it's upside down in the Pyl Brook.

Trigger (I know you were being partly facetious) but actually the royal family didn't steal anything. Most stuff came as gifts and bribes for royal patronage (from explorers and exploiters). However other bits, including the most famous/expensive sparkly, were given to them by people who legally owned them (at the time). But obviously we're sort of on social media so this can be freely ignored.

Spit is wrong and RK is right. From All Together Now page 381. "In November 2014 shortly before we submitted the Plough Lane planning application to Merton, we received an offer from Chelsea. After some negotiation we got the bid up to £7.5m"

Wasn’t it just recently that FGR was being held up to us as an example of a club that could be successful while focusing/ diverting its attention onto green initiatives and other off-field priorities- which is not looking quite so persuasive as a strategy now.

Forest Green & Diamonds look destined to appear in a ‘Whatever happened to…?’ column about football follies.

Didn’t realise FGR were relegated last night. From L1 to non-league in 2 seasons and 5 different managers (incl Big Dunc and Troy Deeney 😁)

It's a life size statue but obviously not as heavy😂

Well what goes around comes around the royal family nicked loads of shit for generations just to use them as stair ornaments and stuff.

The statue of Henry the V111 has just dissappear out of the pub. Fuckers will nick anything .

I was thinking the same mackiemill. We are still looking up at the play-offs. Amazingly we still might find ourselves on the final day with it being possible (if highly unlikely). But without a change in form we are looking at a bottom half, albeit just, but would still be bottom half finish.

We’ve basically paraglided the second half of the season. Partly due to selling our fluke of a goalscorer signing and partly because JJ doesn’t know how to set up a team to win a game or change a team when we’re not winning a game.

One win in our last six matches. Not exactly play off form

Even 12th seems a bit optimistic now!

Play

Luck of the draw they don’t get to plus us.

Looks like Sutton must win their last 2 games to have any hope of staying up.

We are no more responsible for Ks than they are, us. They agreed to the deal, so forget them. FTR, I seem to recall a figure of £3.5M being bandied about (unofficially) at the time too, Spit.

Now 4 points off the playoff spot and not a chance in hell of getting that many points in 2 games. On current run rate it would take us 6 games.

Fun watching this PSG game in a Paris bar.

So 3.5 million more realistic then like I thought

Well whichever version is right and I expect all accept it’s neither and none, to blame us for Ks’ continued nomadic existence is not fair. They were pretty much done. We stopped them from being done for a while while we satisfied our own needs after being done ourselves and when it was time to part we did so with some pretty spiffing terms after a pretty spiffing spell of massively reduce costs.

Sale amount
