Measured how Mike? Genuine question BTW.

“Chaps…they’re onto us…” 😆

The build up to the Dingle Derby starts here…

We Are The Ravers

@Miller11 Duncan - how many paid up members does WATR have, what is the trend ? If your mandate is dictated only by extant members (understandably in fairness), but membership isn’t growing significantly/quickly - (especially in current circumstances) perhaps the only way to grow your membership *is* to change your stance? This is akin to a political party - do you exist to serve only your current members or do you endorse/adopt policies that are more popular - albeit not with your current membership? 🤷‍♂️

I agree…😆

I know that now 😉

The situation has developed …not necessarily in our favour…

Who would bet on >33 points at the moment for next season?

1. It’s decent, but it’s up against a lot of competition for talent 2. Unsubstantiated opinion 3. Unsubstantiated opinion 4. We’d finished the previous season in 2nd…in the PL…🤔 5. If they don’t want to contribute to the running costs…give the club away then, you aren’t invested 6. This is happening 7. He’s carrying out the wishes of the owners to the letter, therefore it’s more important to change the owners than the CEO 8. Fans are entitled to individual opinions…you’ve inflicted yours on us 9. Yes 10. Unsubstantiated belief…that’s religion isn’t it? 😆

32…

He’d get in the team now the way things are unfolding…

The car example is spot on but I don’t believe it's treated the same as in investment in a subsidiary*. Venky’s convert their debt to shares at the end of each season so the capital invested in VLL is growing each season. The worth of that investment & how it’s shown in the ultimate parent accounts is then between them & their auditors in reality. The accounts are supposed to show a true & fair value of course… The only time they definitely have to face facts is when VLL is actually sold. At that point, if the actual sale proceeds are less than the written-down value in their books, then the difference is their loss. *if a practising accountant with knowledge of global accounting wants to chime in, please add to the discussion…👍

No, nobody in the real world does but the accountants in India might want to avoid a massive write off through their P&L until the last possible moment.

We have 5 spaces for pinned threads on the home page - currently the Fantasy Football thread has replaced this. I’ll re-pin this once that launch is over 👍

There’s plenty of statutory info at Companies House but VLL only need keep internal records for 6 years.

Who knows what mischief I’m planning for the future…😆

I agree. It’s like me saying “my imprisonment for tax fraud will not affect my ability to continue to fund my children’s education…they aren’t linked..”. For absolute clarity…I am not in prison currently…neither do I have children but hopefully you get the point 😆

That’s as maybe but if you are asking folks to risk getting a criminal record by pitch invading it’s only fair to point it out beforehand.

Ridiculous? 🤔 And the next time you apply for a job and get to the section of the form where you have to disclose your criminal record… https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/article/2024/jun/02/three-charged-with-invading-pitch-during-champions-league-final https://www.chesterstandard.co.uk/news/23842650.13-men-appear-court-chester-fc-pitch-invasion/ https://www.chelseafc.com/en/news/article/strict-match-measures-lead-to-pitch-invader-conviction

Pitch invading also gets you a criminal record which has significant side effects for those individuals arrested.
