    EFL fans' survey on ownership

    I think one measure that would make owners think carefully would be that any money they put in to a club is done so only by the issue of ordinary shares. That would mean no interest charges on loans and the money only recoverable on a sale (if at all) or being last in line in a liquidation (if...

    C-Unit Council

    Reasonable enough opinion, what I think he should have added is that CCC should be saying to Fisher "show us the CCFC plans for a viable future and how that works at the BPA - what are CCFC committing to" They could of course ask for CRFC to produce their plans but CRFC are not in a rush and...

    C-Unit Council

    I was told something similar, CVD. Basically the MP has done a fact find from all parties, which is the sensible thing to do and would now move on to more detailed talks to find a solution. I would think that the MP wanted it all kept quiet and low key because that creates the best...

    Not just the revenue though is it rev. He needs to detail the costs associated with the income streams. The club can only spend the net amount on the team He also needs to show that overheads like rent, repairs, insurance etc will all show savings by the move. It would seem there will be no...

    Making our feelings clear at Wembley

    Just go to enjoy the day If the team prove not to be good enough and are getting well beaten then vocal protests will take a life of their own in any case. Yes it is an opportunity to show our displeasure but the methods are going to be restricted especially after the events this week in...

    The problem with this interview is that his version and spin are portrayed nationally and to others involved in football as the situation at our club, and is unchallenged. It becomes accepted.

    He can't possibly believe this rubbish he is spouting surely? He can't believe he actually helps the club by saying it can he?

    Simply more deflection and lack of responsibility. 9 damn years and they are still for the umpteenth time learning the process of football recruitment !!! Doesn't matter how many times he keeps spouting this nonsense the dots still don't join up. And yes this continued reference to peace and...

    EFL fans' survey on ownership

    Stick to their present rules ? Set deadlines for solutions? Lead the discussions? Actively approach decision makers rather than wait till the club invites them? Investigate the finances? Globally they need to beef up their powers. Not have as much discretion in their regulations. Investigate...

    C-Unit Council

    All the above proves to me that public mediation will not work and in particular that the fan base will remain divided so that challenge of anyone is going remain weak. Everyone is stuck in the past busy rewriting history with "facts" because then they can point fingers at particular parties or...

    EFL fans' survey on ownership

    Done. As far as Ccfc is concerned I suspect we all know the result you will get. Disappointed that there were not more questions about the EFL. Until you get the governance right with proper powers and enforcement then there will always be owners like ours. That of course means a degree of...

    brave tim!!

    Wonder what the professor would have made of him had fisher faced an hour of probing and persistent questioning where that deflection was challenged. There was a reason fisher wanted the format .... It made it easier for him to control it. The guy is used to public speaking and he is good at...

    The Butts - CRFC Confirms it is willing to join mediation talks

    This is a known process though isn't it, and I don't mean mediation. This scenario has been played out before with exactly the same response as the CCC has shown to date. Only thing that is different is that there is an MP under instructions from the Sports Minister to make an effort. He must...

    Ryton

    So if the academy goes to finham park school and have to create a couple of pitches or more will that satisfy sport England and RBC then permit ryton to be sold?

    The Butts - CRFC Confirms it is willing to join mediation talks

    You see this is why I enjoy our exchanges duffer. Your replies are clear and well thought out. Even if we don't see things the same way Honestly, I do not expect mediation to work there will possibly be some talking but I doubt it will change much other than to allow finger pointing at the end...

    The Butts - CRFC Confirms it is willing to join mediation talks

    Lets break it down then in to essential elements that CCFC needs addressing Home Ground. CCFC & Fisher have maintained for some time that they do not see the clubs future at the Ricoh. It is in statements made by Fisher, it is in the published accounts. The preferred option, other options...

    The Butts - CRFC Confirms it is willing to join mediation talks

    This just gets more comical by the day. The Observer is now demanding to know if the SB Trust are going to join the mediation talks. Why would they to settle this commercial wrangling, what could they add to a solution that is essentially about land & buildings, indeed would the involvement...

    Statement from Cov Rugby

    So how does CCFC get 365 day income when CRFC has its own match days at the stadium? Event income needs time to build and is limited by the size of the facilities and if not specifically one club or the other is shared. Of course if CRFC put its own events on then CCFC don't get a share I would...

    Statement from Cov Rugby

    I wouldn't bet on it. I think it has all come down to two property deals and parties taking their pound of flesh from those. Ryton & BPA. For value to be maximised at BPA then Ccfc probably need to be there to make the capital finance work is my guess But just my opinion, and not alleging any...

    Statement from Cov Rugby

    Have no evidence in this case that it is happening but it is often the case that there are commissions or fees to be paid to those arranging a financial deal or capital project...... think what happened at the ricoh when that project started. Yes it would be possible to arrange finance for the...
