Just got this from The Times Online for any who missed it.

''Growing concerns over future of Slough

By Andy Fitzsimons

 

 

 

SLOUGH Town know that to find their way back into the elite of non-league teams will come at a hefty price. Unconfirmed reports that the club has yet to sign a new 11-year lease with Mayfair Communications, its landlords, is one area still causing concern among Slough’s supporters, many of whom are insinuating that Martyn Deaner, the chairman, is simply trying to buy time having hoodwinked them into believing that the shenanigans surrounding the future of the club had been resolved.

 

Lavish proposals put forward by Deaner’s business consortium to relocate the troubled Ryman League first division north club from their Wexham Road ground to an adjacent site would have set new standards for clubs outside the Football League. But with construction costs alone for the sport and leisure complex estimated to be in excess of £15 million, it was proving to be a costly affair.

 

Designed by Arup Associates, the architects for the Commonwealth Games Stadium in Manchester, the Slough project was seen by many to be a lot more than the average non-league football ground, encompassing an array of additional accommodation and on-site office facilities. Yet, with many local residents disillusioned by the scale for development, Deaner promptly squashed his proposals in November after negative feedback from a number of open consultation meetings.

 

With South Bucks district council having already permitted the redevelopment of Wexham Road with the previous club owners for a 6,000-capacity stadium, Deaner, whose company Frus Ltd finances the club, could choose to utilise the additional acreage on the south side of the ground for his third-party revenue streams, despite it being designated as land for education purposes.

 

Time is running out for Slough, with the Ryman League requiring a minimum seven-year lease to comply with its code for membership''

 

So tell us some thing we did not know

Well I'm sooooo glad that you knew, ......now the whole world knows about it? Meaning players will think twice about signing, many people will not want to do business with him, or only on a pro-forma basis, do u not see the implications? Hats off to the man who grassed him to the Times

I'm sure Mr Deaner is livid that there have been insinuations about his businees methods plastered all over the paper

Hope he will do the honourable thing now?

Without trying to get involved in the ongoing Superslough vs. Urchin battle, I must say SS you don't do yourself too many favours making an argument about who is more likely to read The Times when in your last post you fail miserably to spell the word 'actually'. Did you get to see the Deaner article as lining for your saveloy and chips dinner?
