Interesting comments about the stadium being involved along with the training grounds as I was always under the belief that the council had a stake in it due to providing the land FOC.

Think the council have a 14% stake. :(

We were there at the match at Maine Road in '71, we even had to pay to get our car "protected" way back then. Well done to them now being champions.
Another thing, of the sale of the DW Stadium, will Welan get all the money from the sale of the ground saying that a lot of the initial costs were made up of grants?
