Notice how it says SISU aren't being specific in regards to the new stadium site, more bullshit from sisu

The council have already said they were talking about a specific site haven't they?

I said it should be open letters. Ineffective according to the trust.

"They also said that if Sisu are invested in building a new stadium for the football club then they need to be more "specific" about the details and that "any accusation that the council is being obstructive or treating them differently is unfounded and untrue".

I told them where they should go, wheat they should set out and what they should suggest will happen. Not a fucking peep and it's probably too far down the line now. Wonder why they get criticised?

What about meetings for all interested parties, arranged with the best of intentions by the Secretary of State for Sport - which Muggins failed to attend?!

It says:
Maybe somebody can just ask them about the Butts example so Duggins can clear that one up properly?

Bit of a shit letter though, just going over what they've said already. They must be under instructions from lawyers to say as little as possible.

It's almost as if you purposely missed my point
It's getting a bit of a habit for some.

Council and wasps in a corner this is very desperate statement trying to get the everyone behind Hoffman train. It seems obvious to me that Sisu simply don’t want to sell or if they do have a price (whether you believe that price is inflated or not) Hoffman cannot match that price. So all this letter does for me is hardens sisu’s stance on distressing both council and wasps and pushes us even more likely into a result no one wants either groundshare or worse.

I'm really surprised a the last line, it is tantamount to blackmail. Surely the council's legal team would have looked at it though?

The Hoffman group have asked Sisu to sit down with them and discuss any possible deal with them they won't If they don't want to sell then they can say so .As for the council and Wasps being in a corner.They are not the ones having to move the club with the inherant losses that will ensue. (IF we did get promotion look at all the potential local derby money we would miss out on)For what it's worth I think wasps will probably find new tenants and move on I don't see how the Council can do a lot Sisu submit an application and The Council look at it. Sisu have had the last 5 or 6 years to try and build a stadium and so far nothing

But the Council could have called on SISU, CCFC and Wasps to do a short term deal to avoid what could be the end of CCFC.
They did not, they chose to go for the option which they know is least likely to happen.
The Council are siding with those who want rid of SISU and don't actually care about what happens to CCFC as long as SISU are gone.
I would like to see SISU gone but more than that I want to see CCFC survive.
It's not about the past, it's about the future

It's playing into SISU's hands and what they have been saying for the past few years.

To be fair I think they’ve said several times they don’t want to sell. Who do you think the new tenants would be at the Ricoh to cover the losses of losing CCFC? The council in that letter are basically yeh submit your proposal and we will be impartial but yeh those pesky barriers can be a problem don’t blame us if it’s rejected. Certainly not an encouragement for Sisu to drop legals and more of an attempt to force a sale. For me they are doing this because it is causing both them and wasps financial problems hence my backed into corner view. I just as much as everyone else want Sisu to go but I just can’t see how open letters like this from the council help the situation whatsoever it just makes it ten times worse.
Yeah of course, thanks Tim.

They said the offer was derisory this time so maybe they are ready to listen if so name a ballpark figure they could and hoffman know wether there is a possible deal i don't know who the tenants might be but nobody seen Wasps coming.The site thing all these barriers as you call them come up whenever a large developement like aout of town shopping area or a housing estate are built.( traffic. parking. sewers).Too true it is causing the Council problems and they just want to get on with running the city.

And there was me thinking they were just trying to fuck the football club over.
