I did wonder how long before the "but he saved us" line would be trotted out. :clap: :scarf:

How come you never talk about football and yet when James Brent is mentioned you can't stop posting!

I've explained many many times my reasons for being a Brent sceptic.

With these latest commercial plans that benefit nobody at all financially other than Mr and Mrs Brent, James is doing a perfect job of showing just why I was sceptical of his motives at the outset.

The new development with the hotel and restaurants will be ideal for away fans, especially those with families, and exiled Argyle fans coming down for a game.

An overnight stay in the hotel with an evening meal, swimming or ice skating on Saturday morning followed by an Argyle game.

Are you all suggesting that JB has 'pulled a fast one' on Simon Hallett?

I think SH must be in full agreement with these additional developments.

The only link any of this has with Hallett, is that Brent is trying to lump all his private development in on a joint planning application. All the separate gumph is a private venture of good old James.

If the Grandstand plan is delayed or quashed because of Brent's other interests, then their relationship will certainly get interesting.

Quite refreshing that at long last eyes are being opened though as to Brent's true motives for ever getting involved with Us.

Blimey, you're living up to your username rather well, apart from the Loyal bit. James has saved our football club from going out of existence. He's the same as any other businessman, he needs to make money in order to stay afloat. I don't really care about the relationship between he and Simon- as long as both are happy, then it's really none of our business what goes on behind the scenes. For what it's worth JB has my blessing and I hope the development is a real success, as it will only benefit PAFC and the South West as a whole.

Agree with this, we have a great deal to be thankful for, without JB there would be no Argyle

But primarily Pasoti is a football website so if you only use it to criticise James Brent then it looks like a personal issue and you become a one trick pony and any good points or concerns you raise will be missed or overlooked because it's just you moaning about JB again.

What does the hotel and ice rink bring to the football club ? Nothing.
Its just a separate money making exercise from Brent.

I support the grandstand as an individual proposal. But I don't want to see unncessary buildings on a public park which is valued for its opennesses and lack of development.

I'd like to see the Council issue a split decision here- permission for the grandstand but not for the hotel or ice rink. They can go somewhere else in the city- they don't need to be in Central park.
