James Brent says a majority of the balloon payment has been accounted for..

It would be nice to keep this as a Brent/balloon payment/take the piss out of the chauffeur thread

Comical Nooly at his very best there, someone asks a question he doesn't like he then turns it into an attack on other people that ask questions and uses Tring (the obssesive one lol) as an example of what the Paul Roberts clique is like?  Anyway the bottom line is that we don't need openess and transparency because Nool trusts his mate Jim. Wasn't it Nool that coined the phrase "never again we will we take our eyes off the owners of Argyle?"
And lest we forget he did actually fight in the war.

I've got no idea if Paul Roberts is an ATDer or not(although  clearly seems to think so) but for   to turn a perfectly valid and politely asked question about the clubs debt situation into an opportunity to lash out at his perceived enemies, totally dismiss the question as irrelevant and deflect any form of scrutiny from his master/mate, well it's pathetic. Never again will we bury our heads in the sand eh?

Well said Asti..

How sad and pathetic has Newell become?  His inferiority complex is hitting new heights.

PS.  If anybody hasn't done so...  They should read Paul Robert's Argyle book, "Peter Shilton's nearly men".

Nool thinks of himself as Mr Argyle, but in reality is better known as Mr Arsehole.

Very good Greeny.

It's funny whenever there are divisions in the fanbase, Nooly is at the centre of it. Roberts is a moderate probably doesn't post on here but he is an educated wanker, so treated with suspicion, contempt and aggression.

All the bullying, scheming, deceit and personal positioning has given Porkie the AAA pass he so desires. Like a kid let loose in a sweet shop.

He'll do anything to keep it that way, even at the cost of disharmony and the alienation of a portion of the fanbase. If his main man departs, he'll jump ship to the new incumbent........ but he does charidee, goes games, loves the channel city and won't hear a bad word against those fine gentlemen and their lovely families.

Keeping Argyle village

Paying off the Balloon Payment for a start

It's like saying you've paid off your debts by taking out a loan.

Brent's also quoted as saying that "on a cash basis" the club is breaking even-I presume he means on a trading basis, excluding interest and loan repayments.

Well on that basis, I'm a bloody millionaire

With logic like this, it's no wonder that wa sorry, BAnkers like Brent & his cronies managed to feck up the world economy





The truth is that, due to Brent's wheeler dealing, a football club that came out of Administration owning a football stadium and other land, but with large debts, now has no assets whatsoever and has made very little progress in clearing the debts.

And we can all remember what happens to a football club with more debts than assets- cue Ridsdale going on another "walking holiday" and the Chairman booking a flight to Dubai.

does anyone really believe brents drivel ?
the balloon payment could be £2m and we have paid off £1.1m that would be the majority of the debt how dumb is the argyle fan these days ?

by definition you have to be dumb to be an Argyle fan.

So the debts have been 'accounted for' not paid for

This in a nutshell, we used to have a three million football creditor debt we now have a £3,4,5m million debt to Brent, PCC and other sources. The only progress is that the loans are on easier repayment terms but the allusions to a debt free club are just that. More smoke and mirrors from the chosen one.

I haven't actually seen anybody assert that we are debt free - only that we are no longer trading at a loss.
