There is a cost of around 25K each time the case goes to court, regardless of whether it is heard, which racks up over time.

The comments under the article however, are mind boggling, it's as though Stockholm syndrome is contagious, & reaching epidemic levels

 

Listen to Reg, spot on, as always:

One of the best stadiums in the EFL. Which is incidentally kept in pristine condition in all areas. Ewood Park stadium is a credit to our owners, no financial cut backs to our iconic ground, well kept and maintained.

This really does sound like a scam, they list about 100 cases a day don't they and only see about 20?

lol

Per court room - I think Delhi has about 60 of these.

Edited to add…

Elliott says one of the issues is there’s only 4 judges in India who can hear such a case.

I haven’t double checked but I reckon more than 4 judges have already been involved.

Find that hard to believe it's not exactly a complicated case.

The 25k every time the case goes to court even if it isn't seen thing can't be real. That's an insane amount of money in India, the figure must be in rupees.

If it is real, in pounds, and not just a reflection of the lawyer fees, no wonder the courts put way more cases on their docket than they can possibly see.

I’d be amazed if Elliot hasn’t completely misunderstood something yet again (or been fed a line and not thought to check for himself).

edited to add…

He states the court case against the Venkys has been pushed back.

The court case was brought by the Venkys it isn’t against them.

This isn’t his only error in this article.

He seems so far out of his depth I almost feel sorry for him.

Rover End seems THE most obvious one. The Real John Smith feels a bit dubious as well.

Maybe there's a few of them employed to agree with each other and slap each other on the back  going "Great post".

Rover end is a complete tool. He'd defend the club if we were playing non league on pleasington and season tickets to attend were £1000 a pop. 

Definitely a plant along with a few others.

Venkys have today filed another Civil Miscellaneous Application with the court.

They’ve previously used these to try and get interim relief whilst their main case is still pending.

For example, they used one to seek permission to send the £11 million in October ‘23 and they used another in Sept ‘24 to try and have the  guarantee condition removed.

The last one (May this year) was heard roughly a month after the papers were lodged - I’ll keep my eyes peeled…

Work you do to keep track of developments is god-tier, and it's not something that is reported anywhere else. None of us would have a clue if you weren't posting on the topic.

God knows its not something the LT or BBC Lancs would ever report on

I'll be be honest I've lost track of this court case (don't fully know how it all works etc. What's the outcome we're hoping for and what can the courts do to them that edge then closer to leaving?
