    Brilliant. Nothing concealed, unredacted in full I take it. Do they have to release it all today?
    Richard you have been a bloody marvel.
    Well done.

    Well done Prague!

    Like many observers on here I am keen to hear what happens next.

    Just come on again to say Congratulations, your persistence has paid off by all accounts.
    I still don't agree with or buy into the motivation for you doing all this, but again: You've succeeded and that is no mean feat. Good for you.
    I suppose you aim to campaign for a complete renegotiation of the deal now as a matter of course.

    It'll be embarrassing for West Ham when it's revealed just how bad a deal they got from the government.........

    They might even have to pay a contribution to all the club branding in the ground

    ...an excellent idea but I suspect that the press may actually start to look at the situation in a little more detail once the full extent of the stitch up is known so that may not be necessary.

    I'm sure everything's above board and West Ham are paying an undeniably fair rent and make very little from the deal. The legacy and the local community are the board's pressing priority, of course.

    Is this going to embarrass Boris big time ?

    Well done Richard. Let's hope LLDC come straight out and accept the decision, they still have the right to seek leave to appeal to the Upper Tier Tribunal, just to delay publication. They know they cannot win however far it goes.

    on bbc now!

    It was on the local London news - I suspect they will be covering it later as well. Their reporter seemed to think there was room for appeal...

    Well done. I do not think KM has realised what she is dealing with people like PA, no wonder she does not want to talk to the Trust with him involved.

    Any idea how long they have before they lodge yet another appeal at our expense?

    There's a really interesting political dynamic to all this. Osborne and May would love to see Boris' leadership campaign holed beneath the water before it gets going no doubt. But, depending on the full content of course it will/could also not reflect well on the government as a whole if they are perceived to have pumped money into the already rich business of several party donors.

    Then throw into the mix the possibility of a challenge under EU rules on state aid, which given what's happening at the moment, some will be in favour of, some will look upon as outside interference in domestic matters, and this has the potential to run for quite some time yet and be used by both sides of the referendum argument.

    There's going to be plenty of spin to come I reckon.

    I suppose this will add to Katrien's views that Charlton fans are just anti-women. KM first then KB, who should we pick on next, Hope Powell? :wink:

    Only joking. Great news.
