[EZ99] Yep, I'm afraid so !-)
cufconline> ez99?? Was that your choice??
[EZ99] Yes, East Stand, seat Z99 ;-)
cufconline> Ah ha ! I'm in J151...
[EZ99] Hmm, that almost reads (phonetically) like Jessie ;-)
[blacktwo] as anyone mailed the list in the last couple of days  seem to be
- having trouble rejoining
cufconline> i've been getting plenty of stuff, blacktwo
[EZ99] Same, here - no problems with articles.
cufconline> make sure if you rejoin you post in plaintext, BTW

[blacktwo] thats it been posting in html

- plaintext!
>> dcumbrian has joined channel #XC.1228116
cufconline> Hurrah! That's four of us now!
[EZ99] Ah, now I know who you you are.
[dcumbrian] What been said so far then
[EZ99] It was a shame about yesterday's match - I was looking forward to
- chanting at fellow sheepshaggers :-)
cufconline> Not much - game was off - Mr Black helped the groundsman replace
- divots...
[dcumbrian] Could haver been worse I'd been driving for two hours when I
- found out
[blacktwo] no not yesterday only when games are played
cufconline> Oh sorry - misunderstood :-)
[EZ99] 2 hours? Bummer :-(  One of the advantages of living in carlisle is
- that it only takes me 20 minutes to walk to the Ground.
cufconline> It takes me *5* mins from my parents house...
[blacktwo] anyone no the actuall cost of the east stand
[dcumbrian] Any indication when its gonna be played (need to book time off
- work)
[EZ99] 5 minutes? Any advance on 5 minutes ?-)
[blacktwo] 20
cufconline> East Stand - Eleven quid.
[EZ99] I would have thought the rescheduling will be announced in a week or
- so
[blacktwo] sorry to build
cufconline> Make that 2 million notes!
[blacktwo] did we recive a grant
cufconline> Sorry 'bout the adverts BTW...
[EZ99] Yes, was it 1 million from the Football thing?
cufconline> I think it was 700k - odd
[dcumbrian] are those the falshing things at the bottom of my screen
[EZ99] Ah, adverts aren't a problem - I just ignopre them :-)
cufconline> Yes - I'm seeing Charlie Chaplin at the moment...
[blacktwo] so how come we owe Knighton £2.5 million
cufconline> We owe him £900k according to his own report last season
[EZ99] I think it is that Knighton Holdings is owed 2.5m by the Club. In
- effect it is Knighton owns Knighton Holdings, which owns the club.
[dcumbrian] It that the money after all the transfers?
>> vhomee has joined channel #XC.1228116
cufconline> Hi there vhomee!
[blacktwo] anyone going to pay £4500 must be mad its just going to him
[vhomee] hi
[EZ99] Hmm, this seems to be going well, maybe we should get Knighton online
- next week to answer questions.....
cufconline> I agree - you pay £4500 and all you get is discounts and a vote
- for this commitee
[dcumbrian] Only if we can reverse the charges
cufconline> I was hoping my mate at the News & Star could set up some player
- chat sessions.
[blacktwo] good idea
[dcumbrian] that sounds great!
[EZ99] This new bond thing willl never get off the ground - there aren't
- enough fans with that sort of spare cash. Knighton probably knows this and,
- as Rob and others said, is yanking our collective chains.
cufconline> It is probably a bit of a bluff - he'll still own 93% of the
- club anyway
[EZ99] The player chat sessions would be a good idea, but they'll all
- probably be hung over celebrating the win on every Saturday.
[blacktwo] any news on new players
[blacktwo] not keith walwyn
[EZ99] I've heard rumours from people who have watched training sessions
- about unknowns training that looked good.
cufconline> who's this guy from St Mirren?
[EZ99] Wasn't he a striker?
[blacktwo] so the rumour they just stand around and dont train not true
cufconline> Ex-Chelsea - sounds a bit like Kevin McAllister or somebody
[EZ99] Actually, if that rumour is true then anyone actually doing training
- _will_ look good :-)
