I stand corrected but the info from these boards is gthat Bulls season ticket holders were going to pay on the door as oposed to using tickets and the 16000 gate is the first I have heard sorry.

Many did, in fact I paid three times altogether on Friday night, if you include the season ticket. Truth is though that many wouldn't have been able to afford to pay again (think of a family with four members, for instance), much as they probably would have liked to. There was never any decision by the club to make everyone pay on the gate, and it wouldn't have been legal anyway, so it was far from clear cut as to how much income came from the game.

Offer, acceptance and CONSIDERATION for a contract, Liane? The consideration does not have to be "adequate", there just has to be some. If the latter is unclear, or there is none, then it has to be under deed. Not sure what the consideration in contractual terms would be, although in more general terms "still having a team to watch" might cut it? Would not want to bet the house on it though.

If it ever came to legal action, then it could well be that on balance of probabilities everyone pledging was well aware they would be expected to pay - so it could be legally binding providing a consideration could be demonstrated (hard?). But if it ever gets to that situation, we are stuffed anyway.

ps - 'Vark got in before I wrote this, and he is much better qualified to comment than me. Is it totally clear there is no consideration at all?


I hope the club are not relying on getting a club as a consideration! It confuses me and is why I probably should be reading my purchasing and supply law text book and not reading posts!

The very first thing I ever learnt, on day one, when studying mercantile law as part of the first year for my qualification, was that offer+acceptance+consideration=contract*

Then we moved onto snails in bottles and smelly smokeballs and 1930's car parks...

It'll be engraved on my mind to the very end of time, I fear.

* unless applied to several former Bulls players :(

The carbolic smoke company. We spent far too much time studying that in contract law at uni

Indeed. I liked Donaghue v Stevenson better, cos the women went all peculiar when the circumstances were described in detail... :WHISTLE:

But Mercantile Law is frighteningly exciting compared with Company Law - trust me!

I know I did company law module as well.
And employment law.

Nothing to do with my degree in economics but I got a separate ILEX qualification if I did the 3 modules. I got the qualification but really wasn't worth it!!!!!

I have learnt that much this year that I think it has all merged into one! Trying to be chartered in a year on top of working has just about frazzled my mind! I always remember and try to use the Dunlop tyre co v selfridges which has consideration, privity of contract and agency so I should know better!!

Was the time limit included in the offer. Didn't it mention 5pm on 06/04. Srely extending the daedline is tantamount to making a new offer. Only arguing hypothetically by the way.

But they have made no offer. At the moment they have a lot of promises to make individual gifts, if enough people promise to make these gifts. Which, seemingly, not enough had as at Sat. a.m..

where ever i am

Any idea how long the taxman will give the club to collect the pledges? i'd imagine its going to take at least a couple of weeks to get maybe 90 % of them. Then whats the plan when people dont pay up? regardless of offers to treat etc. no club is going to take their own fans to court for £100
