    We know what their turnover is Sub, we know how much they make selling pies, how much they take in the club shop, we know how much they pay out in wages every year, and how much profit they make, they can't hide that, it's in the 'Annual Report and Consolidated Financial Statement' published every year. We know they've made £85 million profit over the four seasons previous to last season. It's surprising how much we do know.

    I know that sinkov, however, it would probably surprise you just how much we don't know ---and never will!

    Aye, there's been some good stories come out about Bob Lord since he shuffled off this mortal coil Sub. We knew nowt at the time though did we, and I'll bet we still don't know the half of it, and like you say we never will.

    It's the way that they all work and was definitely the way with Bob Lord, although I think a lot was kept under wraps because of fear of reprisals -----we will never know!

    Reminds me of the demise of Colne Dynamos that Sub, a lot more to that than we'll ever know, which is probably as well.

    Aye, that was certainly a strange one!
    There have been some strange things happening at Gateshead FC over the last year or so and nobody seems to be able to work out what has happened, however, they have managed to carry on ---for how long nobody knows

    Doesn't look like it, according to the Belgian media, he's so far from match fitness, he isn't even training with the first team squad yet.

    He's still picking up another cool £2 million a year though!
