As for will Brent actually build anything luckily it will have less impact on Argyle now with it being moved farther away from Argyle land. Meh.
As for silent Si it's all conjecture, I am glad he's moved Brent on from his reluctant grip on the testicles of the club but the burning question is what are his plans for the rescued car park? Maybe he just wants to protect us from unscrupulous owners like Brent or maybe he has plans for a thirty storey hotel and multiplex? Persoanlly I'm not getting my knickers in a twist yet as before he does anything he will have to show his hand and go through planning. If and when he does I will act accordingly for now he deserves the benefit of the doubt.
It's getting to the stage now though where it would be useful to have a group of fans who could maybe question the owner on behalf of fans and put our minds at rest, sort of like a fans trust.

that’s all you can do Earweg is see how this situation evolves im quite skepticle about hallett anyway But you just gotta see how it pans out I will be keeping a eye on him and any untoward business im afraid he will be getting wrath Brent got

Have to feel slightly sorry for all the homeowners in Milehouse and Peverall who were rightly unamused with the likely parking nightmares that would have ensued had the Shyster broken his duck and built hotels vets office blocks international space stations or whatever else filled his empty head. Biggest Walter Mitty in my lifetime
All for nothing. Newell if you have any self respect left drive the fella out of town soonest and hand in your AAA passes

Doubt he will, he's working overtime shagging hallett's leg in the hope he keeps that and more.

Proof of Simons intentions for the club will start to be seen come january i feel with the transfer window and how much del bhey will get to strengthen our hand going into the final period of the season where ever we are in the league.

Ice Sheds....no chance now
Brent will leave with his fabulous record completely intact as the most incompentant developer in the UK

Before you go Jimmy fancy telling the fanbase more about the staged "contract" signing......

All a political stunt for a fan base full of sheep, even knocking down the Chisholm Lounge and placing machine looking like a dinosaur for every one to see. Resurface the outside of new ticket office/shop to show everything is going to plan but just look behind nothing be done for weeks.

Even the stepping down was staged, release to the fans at midnight on the official site but was in the morning Herald. He went around to every local media doing interviews.

Including the one in Plymouth Reg, apparently Brent said he was looking for someone else to "take the brand forward", ha ha heard that before somewhere.
Another administration to add to his very impressive CV of business failure and non achievement, come on Jimmy do the right thing flog off yer 30% on 1st Nov and get out of Plymouth altogether.

Which station reg? cannot find it on any news site on the web

How the feck did we honestly get landed with this cretin originally surely Webb and Newell didnt look him up in Yellow pages under Adminstration and Bankruptcy specialists

Has there ever been a bigger business failure than this Walter Mitty Clown ?
Just feck back under the stone you crawled from you posh parasite.
It was on the Radio Devon news TG.

Despite Mr Brent's non-delivery on many fronts, he seems remarkably lucky in his dealings. Apart from PCC's love affair, there was also the mysterious foreign debt buying company on hand to help when the hotel chains collapsed. He also seems to have got off with the Oldway debacle quite painlessly. What's the odds he'd already ring fenced his investment in Saltrock as well.

As someone  on here pointed me to this on company house

Saltrock  has change it's name to:

SRS Realization 2017 Ltd

FFS! TGWU Resize!

Harve All they were worried about really was what they could get out of it Brent sussed that bought em off once they were bought and in Brent’s pocket he knew that he qwelled any future dissent from the fan base and using that great term I don’t know who originally quoted from here but a Pair of useful idiots that’s what they were to brent

1st of Aug

Devon-based surf chain Saltrock has closed another one of their Devon branches - and has revealed that it is shutting all of its 'non-profitable' stores.

The store on Chapel Street in Exmouth closed it's doors for the final time on Tuesday, making it the third branch to close this year.

The store in Barnstaple shut earlier this year, while the Taunton branch closed without warning at the end of June.

With Hallett taking majority shareholding it may well have saved another admin at Argyle. Despite what his fans claim Brent's portfolio of businesses are toxic and carry way to much debt. We are well rid (almost) of the reluctant builder.

The one here in Dorchester closed about 4 months ago - seemed to be a permanent 70% sale on as the norm. High street in general in shite.

I won''t be entirely happy until the 30% becomes 0%.
