What a great story, and fair play to them. Would have been so easy to go down another route with this.

I read about this myself yesterday and it is very heart warming. Hopefully a few of the homeless people will get laborers jobs out of it and possibly save their lives.

Great story.

I wonder if I'll get away with the autocorrect in the title.

A brilliant thing for them to do.
Hopefully the people who gain benefit from staying there can take maximum advantage of the situation and make a change in their lives.

Avery nice gesture indeed.

Unfortunately I think there generosity and positive spirit will be abused and come the time these people will nopt go quietly.

I've done so many "Goodwill gestures" myself, although not on this scale that almost always destroy my faith in human nature.

I hope i'm wrong though.

SO nobody else thinks their accountant said, 'It'll cost about £x,000 to repair any damage they do over the winter and approximately triple in legal fees to get them moved on by the courts. What do you want to do?'

Now it's been advertised I wonder how many more people will be showing up?

I can only think their generosity is going to be abused.

Both are millionaires, i'm sure they've thought about it alot.
It would certainly be a huge decision to make.

This, they'll regret it.

They'll either not go at all or end up with a totally trashed building

Which allows them to highlight how their offer of help was abused and that GNev can pull back from his chariddee work with the homeless. It's a no lose for them really in the longer term. A trashed building is fairly good too, as it removes the hassle of renovating a Grade II listed building, as all the listed internal stuff was ruined by the scumbags.

I don't know why you keep posting links to that place, I'd be embarrassed to be associated with it. Especially as I gather you're not a teenager. I bet even in that thread there's anti-United/Neville abuse.

Read it, you will be surprised, quite a few positive comments, along with the usual anti-United abuse, only to be expected from these kind of fan forums where passions run high. Idiots can be found most places on the net.

Red-Cafe is just as bad.

RedCafe is absolutely not as bad, even RAWK isn't as bad as Blue Moon. There's rag, and whatever else in every other post.

It's up to you where you spend your time online obviously, I'm just a bit surprised you lower yourself to that hole.
