    2011 Accounts over view

    I know going through figures isnt for everyone so thought I would do an overview of points to come out of the 2011 accounts - SISU are owed 29.7m at 31/05/11, SISU put in £5.5m in 2011 accounts year ..... how they apparently got to £40m as some state by 31/05/12 beggars belief. The problems...

    SBS&L accounts 2011

    These accounts pull together the performance of the whole group. As such are probably more important than singling out CCFC or CCFC H. Group accounts exclude any trading or balances existing between the group companies so give a truer value of the entity as a whole Brief comments Directors...

    Birmingham to appoint Clarke

    It will be interesting to see how Lee Clarke does at the blue noses. Lot of people have said in the past that would have liked him at CCFC. Wont have the same budget as at Huddersfield and Birmingham have big expectations of their managers & team. Certainly will have more to spend than CCFC...

    UEFA priorities seem all wrong

    Have to agree with Rio Ferdinand ...... the fine/suspension handed out to Nicklas Bendtner seems completely out of proportion when comparing it with how UEFA have dealt with the racism issue. http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/2012/jun/18/euro-2012-nicklas-bendtner-underwear

    Football creditors rule

    This was the reaction of the Football League to HMRC losing the latest challenge in court. http://www.football-league.co.uk/footballleaguenews/20120525/high-court-dismisses-hmrc-challenge-to-leagues-insolvency-policy_2293334_2788255 Says it all really. Self interest, weak leadership and the...

    story after story but never the truth

    Have to say I am heartily fed up and pissed off with some, in fact nearly all, of the clowns involved in the running of the club or its takeover. The communication is appalling, the mis information a disgrace (all sides guilty of it some more than others and it is deliberate). The impression i...

    Current situation

    Just a few thoughts really no particular order - The recent newspaper and club announcements have changed nothing. The situation is that currently CCFC have no way of paying their liabilities as they fall due.... rent is but one of those liabilities. Important expression that because it is a...

    Championship agrees new FFP rules

    It is reported that agreement has been reached on new FFP rules for Championship clubs (pity we arent still in it!) http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/17841566 Looks tough at first sight but I am puzzled why any expenses are excluded (costs of players and stadium build cost write downs are...

    Suggestions for the CCFC review

    Ok so we all have ideas we can contribute ...... from the small savings or marketing to the more grandiose. So perhaps it is time to start focusing forward rather than tearing each other apart looking at the past So what ideas do you have. This is not a "kick SISU out" is the solution thread -...

    It could have been different ?

    I dont really buy into the bad luck theory because all teams can point to it and say they have had bad luck at some point. This is also not a finger pointing at AT or SISU - thats covered elsewhere. But there are little things that add up over a season that with just a little application...

    Finance guesswork april 2012

    The more I think on it the more perplexed I am about what we are told about the finances at CCFC. It just doesnt stack up to me. Yes I know it is partly to do with the timing of payments etc, partly others guess work or hearsay etc - but how did it get to the stage where we cannot pay our bills...
