Father Christmas only comes on December 25th bearing gifts!!!!.......................................(and sorry to spoil the surprise he does not exist!).

KT and DB are shrewd business people who are outflanking NBC!!!

I don't think so. They are stuck in a catch 22. They can have planning if they complete the stand. They won't complete the stand before they get planning.

And here is the problem, people putting KT & DB on some sort of pedestal, they haven’t “outflanked” anyone but themselves because without a section 106 the land is worthless.

I know i've posted this article before, but this was the original BBC interview with Kelvin Thomas the day after the takeover was completed.

For anyone who hasn't seen it , it outlines exactly what was said.

Kelvin confirms that he "wasn't the only bid in the room"....there were other interested parties...so this myth that he saved us and there was nobody else is just that...a myth. (2:00 minutes onwards)

3:25 onwards, the much talked about £4m investment which was to finish the stand and provide working capital. At no point does he say he'll spend £4m on the stand, but he does say that money was there to "finish the stand".

He also says that £4m is "about right for the size of the club"...so considering he/DB have now put in over £5m you have to wonder where we go.

Also notable he says that you only try and sell a football cub when things are going badly.....and then there aren't many takers. So if he's trying to sell now should we assume that despite his recent statement that all is well, perhaps things are not as they seem.

Anyway, draw your own conclusions from this article, its the one where he actually says things rather than a written media interpretation of what was said. Make your own minds up and ask yourselves nearly 4 years on whether Kelvin has been true to his word.

And this is why they've received there last penny from me.
 For me, these land grabbers dont represent the football club of Northampton, 4 years now and they still treat our town, club , its supporters and council with contempt and belittlement in desperation to get what they crave, lots of land so they can cash in and get gone, no matter how long that takes.
Despite being offered a free ticket for tomorrow,  its the hill for me, after 50 years continuous support I've had enough. How long must we stand back as the prime objective of our club is not competing at an acceptable level but just to facilitate wealth from the land our club stands on? 20 years now and counting!
I really hope the council dont roll over to this lot.
 This is why Im not stepping foot inside Sixfields until these lot are gone.
I can only hope for lots of 1st half goals, as you get a good view of the North stand goal from the hill😂😂

Who has the new leases; NBC, NTFC or KT/DB?

Has he paid cash out to complete the East Stand?

My patience has runout with KT and DB but I know whose hand of cards is strongest!!!

So currently, YES 'outflanked NBC'!!!

But they cant profit without the cooperation of the council whose members are transitory, able to put the project on the back burner and in time be replaced by other officers/councils.
KT/DB are stuck where they are, five million down with no hope of selling the club for anything like that and at the mercy of an organisation they've previously crossed.

Maybe KTs definition of "finish the stand", was just to stick some seats back in it.
Voila, its finished, as promised.

Oh I see.
I didnt realize when he arrived in town he was acting as a loan shark. I thought he said his consortium had 4million quid operating money, part or all of which would be used to finish the east stand.
If he'd have said there and then, that money was only ever a temporary loan how do you think his proposals and business plan would have been met. Favourably?
Yes, agree with above completely! It was quite clear what KT brought to the table when becoming Chairman.

Funnily enough, when he claimed that 1800 plastic seats, probably fitted in 4 days by 3 men had a whooping cost of £250,000, I thought we were in for a long haul!
£65k max it should cost.

Are you making figures up again? For a self employed plasterer, you have a comprehensive knowledge of stadium construction.

At some point there is going to be a legal battle over the planning permission. If NBC say that the only thing stopping the planning permission is the completion of the East Stand then that is extortion and very very illegal.
