Bit of truth to this is and it was always obvious that the main excuse for the move to LW of off the field income was BS.

Clearly would have been better for the Club to go bust at Manor Park given the restrictive covenant etc

But Neale separated ground from Club and alienated the stadium’s neighbours who owned a sea of land around the LW island.

Thorn built up the debt and alienated supporters.

JG didn’t pay the rent and built up the debt further.

So the outcome was inevitable.

And VoR won’t face the reality of the new Club’s financial position. And I say that as someone who really does understand the planning process!
