I'm not at all sure the colour of the day makes that much (if any) difference whatsoever mein freund.

I have turned the "opportunity" down more times than I can shake a stick at and totally glad I did.

I think it's disgraceful what Gateshead Council have done.
Well said BT. It would not surprise me at all to see the Stadium sold off for housing or other development just to get more cash in the kitty.
To be honest, the club must also shoulder some blame for not doing more to sort things out when they knew that they could be struggling to get the necessary agreement from the council. As always, it is the fans who I feel sorry for because they have really supported the club since it nearly went out of existence a few years ago.
