Ah, cheers. Good luck to him. Last time I was in there, mind, Colin Lee was temporarily ‘front of house’. Decent fayre, though.

Nice to see another sane person on this site!  Others might be somewhat less friendly and tell you the exits on the left!  Unsure whether it’s irony or sarcasm you have missed this time, Reg. You choose which best fits. Btw stagedoor, who is Bernie 2 sofas? I wasn’t sure who you meant. I didn't miss either...I got both! |

There's nothing ironic about a statement taking the piss out of a person, so that makes it sarcasm. No no no no no, that's not taking the piss! It is nice to go see someone who comes here and states it like it is, instead of all the doom and gloom that's continually spouted on this subject! Neither is it taking the piss by saying 'exit stagedoor left'...surely, even on this site people must of heard of that! It's humour...although I'm quite sure some of the people on this site have never heard of that word! |

Well, I think I can safely rest my case about some people not having a sense of humour! None of us are Billy Connelly, and there is no shame in that! Billy Connelly is a Scottish comedian Rob...I really think you can look-up the word comedian yourself!  The late Mother-in-Law was a totally humourless person...that didn't make her a bad person...just a totally humourless person! I notice that old 'Stagedoor' himself has not come out with any humourless quips as of yet! Could this mean that 'Stagedoor' himself, actually shares a sense of humour with the small, but select few members of this site! |

The amount owed by Torquay United Association Football Club Limited to Riviera Stadium Limited as at 31 March 2018 was £1,200,000. RSL y/e 31/03/18This is an increase of £840,000 from 31 March 2017. The accounts do not say who had lent £1,230,000 to Riviera Stadium Limited, but the liability is shown as due within one year from balance sheet date. At that rate, it will likely be around £2m owed by 31/3/2019. |

My word, a simple may i say humourous, post, about the “size of the debt”
Is wrongly interpreted by some, who seemed to take offence,
May i take the opportunity to sincerely apologise to those i have offended,
With my crass & sarcastic comments, please, please forgive me i beg you!!
Now that is sarcasm & if you dont like it, may I quote the great line, by
Billy Connelly in the “ Last Samurai” when confronted by a merry bunch
Dastardly Samurai’s & told by his Captain Tom Cruse, to remain out of
The up coming fisty cuffs, STICK IT UP YOUR ARSE, SIR!!!

I cannot see too much panic over the size of the debt on here.
The crucial factor is that the debt is NOT secured against the freehold of the ground - for that we should be thankful.
If it were, I think we could safely assume it would be curtains for professional football in Torquay.
Fortunately, the freehold is not owned by the club so ownership cannot be transferred by the club's owner and, if the limited company is liquidated, the ground cannot be sold by the liquidator.
Funnily enough I was far more concerned at the size of the debt when it may have been repayable. It's a bit like being out in heavy rain. You run for cover when you can, but once you are soaked through you give up and cop it sweet as you can't get any wetter than you already are.
