I think young leddy will be along shortly to confirm Como, owned by billionaire indonesian Hartuno brothers, are the richest club in Serie A. Looking at their accounts is staggering, €191m cum losses since being bought as a struggling Serie D club in 2019 and €390 invested

Cue Leipzig getting back into it!

I'm surprised how easily Como are tearing RB Leipzig a new one.

Doesnt appear to be many people at Luton Stevenage

Good stuff Meadow, he's been on a bit of a journey hasn't he.

Good luck to Alan and congratulations to Richard

Stevensge Luton game warming up nicely Luton manager sent off already

Things are finally looking up for my son Richard. After he had his motorbike accident, he was living on SSP then UC. He was offered a temporary role in May. Today he was told that his application for promotion was successful and that means a permanent contract. Significant wage rise too. Interesting company. [Link]

All the best Alan.

Thanks peeps

Don't think I've ever seen that picture before pete but I do remeber a discussion about the railway line / power station triggered by something else. Playing is of course optional

OI - Every year, that OTD pic comes up, you mention the chimneys, I post an old pic taken of 2 chimneys, Papers gives us his knowledge, we all go home and forget it for another year.

Best wishes, Alan.

Oxford bone infection unit, at the Nuffield Orthopaedic Centre just along the road from JR.

The guys in that video posted, teach their craft to international surgeons, amongst the best in the world, I'm so fortunate to be in their care.

I had a high tibial osteotomy get infected and the surgeon badly handled my case Should have been washed out in 4-6 weeks max, took 51/2 months. That began in 2022, so its been a long road.

[Link] WARNING CONTAIN SURGERY PICTURES. If you are fascinated by that sort of thing. I've become fascinated by surgeries of all type since this has blown up

Best Wishes Alan, how did you get infected? Maybe you had an open fracture at some point

Good luck, Alan.

Sorry to hear AIoW, hope all goes to plan mate

I'm in the bricking it stage of my knee infection at the moment. I'm 19 days away from surgery and can't take a course of antibiotics now until then. This is to positively identify the bacteria thats at the root of osteomyelitis. Last night I was feeling nauseous have had a second sinus breakthrough 2 days earlier. So proper cacking myself as I so need this surgery done ASAP. If I get ill I will have operation cancelled. If surgery is your thing the surgeons doing my op at Oxford bone infection unit have a teaching video on YouTube explaining it all. Gonna wear some of my dons gear, the plastics guy is an oxford fan.

It is a fascinating OTD, I was trying to work out what the chimneys were. The tallest could be the railway power station? The other I presume is in Weir Road. And then the goalkeeper(?) appears to be wearing a baseball cap featuring the French tricolour whilst one of the other Hillingdon players seems to have the gloves.

Couldn't help but notice that OTD two coaches of fans went up to Blackpool to see the lights

Per the link to the PLB below posting: Late 2026/Spring 2027 repayments due = £3.1m. Redeemed (exchanged for shares or donated) amount expected to be £1.2m. Total amount required as a cash injection = £1.9m. So, it appears that the £1.7m "cautiously" budgeted is the £1.9m with a little flex. one way or the other, a cash injection is required. the Plough Lane Bond Update on the Club site could have been worded differently, it uses "supporters" just the once and "members" is used three times on separate sentences/paragraphs. From memory, the Club have previously received a loan from a Club director, for a 6% return, which was repaid within 6 months. If no current director (or even supporter or member) is able to provide us a material amount loan at a very favourable/competitive rate to help us during the period through to the end of our season (Spring 2027), then that could of been included.
