I don’t like it but nothing to do with the scum, it’s just that it clearly looks crap whereas the writing in dark blue would look quality and match the rest of the kit.

Our away / 3rd kits are 9 times out of 10 much nicer and no red logo to be seen.

Exactly, if you take a look at mockups of our current home kit with a blue logo on it, it's amazing, with the big ass red AIA logo it's meh ..
 
Another very good interview from the wee man. Interesting:
~18 years to plan and build the stadium.
£1.25b cost, would be £2bn nowadays.
Non-soccer* events bring in £20-30mpa.
Gate receipts are over £100mpa.

So if that is £125mpa, in 10 years the raw stadium cost will be covered from those 2 income streams.
I know it isn't as simple as that because we would bring in gate receipts if we played at MKDons stadium, but it is an interesting way to think about it.

It's interesting, but as much as there was a cost to our progress re ability to invest while building

Current interest rates, Brexit issues, inflation would probably make that build undoable for us now, the timing worked out (for once with Spurs)

Indeed, wee Danny said something like “luckily we were able to fixed the loans at low interest rates … and COVID cost us a further £200m… we needed to pay back the Bank of England” but there is no LUCK in all that; Levy flexed his brain on that

Indeed. Wasn't it our healthy finances that meant we qualified for the government's covid loan facility in the first place?
