I think the consortium are interested in other development deals in the area too.

Time for me to let my wife know about breaking her favourite vase then :p

http://aprisonofmeasuredtime.wordpress.com/2013/09/27/less-reads-exclusive-interview-with-joy-seppala-some-thoughts/ The original article has been corrected, an apology made and Reid given a comprehensive right of reply in which he where he calls for an end to widespread abuse & corrects...

In a similar vein, some wag has done a parody of the Sky Blue Talk forums ;)

I'm not Les so I can't really speak for him. What I am saying is that he's been getting pretty nasty abuse and some unfair criticism for doing his job. As a CCFC fan and sometime KCIC/NOPM protestor I want to know as much as possible and am not going to stick my head in the sand when it comes to...

Again this comes down to how journalism works. From what I can tell, they met for about two hours. How much was on or off the record we don't know. Bear in mind that this was the first interview she's done since 2005 and I'm guessing that Les has spent a fair while trying to get it and would...

It would be more cost-effective to sell the land without knocking anything down. Les's piece is about getting CCFC back in the Ricoh and although some stubbornly want to read it as a SISU support piece (because apparently we're all to stupid to deal with differing opinions in a rational manner)...

Because some comments weren't published and personal attacks were made against Les Reid. The first paragraph goes into the whole 'Less Read' idiocy and ends with allusion to the idea that he is supporting JS's points of view. There's a good case for defamation &/or libel and bloggers in general...

Spent more time playing pool in Leamington than anywhere near Ryton...

Fair enough. Post some here and I'll see what I can do. Assuming they're vaguely polite/sane ;-)

Perhaps he could. Give them another go...he's been all over Twitter today. Bear in mind that he does it alongside his regular reporting so he might be busy at certain times. What's your Twitter handle? I'll ask him to keep an eye out.

I think it is a combination of the upcoming new stadium plans, Les Reid asking her, lower than expected Dixfields numbers, NOPM/KCIC niggling away and an understanding that SISUetc. have been out-PRed by ACL/CCC. I actually think that Waggot, McFarlane & Fisher are doing a good job of running...

Here's an idea...instead of moaning on here about Les Reid not doing/saying/writing what you want, why not actually talk to the lad himself? He's nearly always happy to answer enquiries via Twitter: https://twitter.com/Lesreidpolitics If you want a question asked or some decent information from...

I understand the sentiment but I can't see it getting any traction. Still options on the table (e.g. JS said that having both sides' surveyors look at the arena value and hitting the average was one way for SISU to take CCFC back to the Ricoh) Not much of a groundswell of support unlike...

"Lowly paid journalist" is my personal fave so far...
