    Holding Wasps to Account

    no the problem is that there is no working relationship at senior level, no trust on any side. Games of brinksmanship are tactics, used by many organisations - there's nothing wrong in that - I doubt SISU or Wasps care how it is perceived from the outside. Sometimes it works other times it...

    Holding Wasps to Account

    Just some comment on the F&B's I think CA/TF referred to a particular year when stating they got 15% of the turnover - actually the calculation is I believe they get a 50:50 split of the net profit which equates for that year to 15% of turnover. CCFC are of course not directly responsible for...

    Holding Wasps to Account

    its called brinksmanship designed to put as much pressure on the other side as possible by leaving it to the last minute. All sides have used this tactic regularly including SISU From the Wasps perspective there is no great need to get it done now, when it runs out in 19 months time. CCFC have...

    Make Sure you have your tea before Bolton match

    Can't remember ACL issuing many (any)statements at all about Ccfc in the last 6 months but you seem to be keeping count so would know better than me.

    Another protest?

    So many ways to protest but blowing whistles during the game should never be one. Hate fans doing it always have done. It can work against the team, is selfish, is divisive and provides excuses for others to exploit. FFS pack it in. It actually devalues our cause and focusses attention in...

    Make Sure you have your tea before Bolton match

    Not sure why ACL have to comment at all, and suspect they wont. There have been far more important issues and they have not commented on those in the past. The contract is between ACL and Otium, they have no direct responsibility to the CCFC fans. So only comment is likely to be from CCFC

    The pies and pasty issue - the plot thickens

    Perhaps its not the staffing as such but the demand for the product thats the issue. Been in the lounges before and there always seemed to be a large amount of wastage come the end of the match, and thats at a time with bigger attendances

    The pies and pasty issue - the plot thickens

    Think you will find that toilets and lights are a contractual obligation due to health & safety so thats a lame comparison. I am sure CCFC can have a lot of things if they choose to pay for it. - got a feeling its an old but recurring problem. Its only drilling down too far because it affects...

    The pies and pasty issue - the plot thickens

    So cutting out losses and not getting this income source from CCFC or its fans is taking every last penny off CCFC how exactly? Looking at it from ACL point of view it makes them more profit by not taking a penny off CCFC for hot food in hospitality. Any business would and should look at areas...

    Another protest?

    Must be feeling brave then

    Another protest?

    Does she need to be for protests to get coverage? I would think she is at home with family and would not leave herself open to the abuse she would receive at the match

    Another protest?

    Can't help thinking that when people back off at the slightest bit of hope is in part why the protest campaigns fail - which in turn makes fishers misdirection even easier to achieve. The fundamentals of Ccfc have not changed because slade is here to the end of the season along with a few...

    The pies and pasty issue - the plot thickens

    An alternative view could be that take up of hot food has been so poor that it now makes a loss and that iec/acl are reverting to a strict interpretation of the contract with Ccfc. If they were to withdraw something that forms a core part of the contract then that would be a breach of contract...

    What were we losing ££££ wise every season when SISU arrived

    I never have. I said there was no evidence in the published accounts that any management charges were being paid, but that doesn't mean there were no such payments Of course if management charges are being charged and rolled in to the loan accounts then that means that Sisu have put in even...

    no more SCG

    some thoughts on the replacement There were some good people involved in the SCG but that got buried under a landslide of ego and a reluctance to speak up so the new set up - It should cover the match day experience - it should not exclude providing a two way dialogue on team performance or...

    What's the betting Strange is asked to chair any new set up because of his previous experience.

    no more SCG

    nice to see that there was proper discussion on the decision to disband or to reconstitute. Says it all that it was the club and Strange who decided. Having said that the SCG in its current form was gravely flawed and very poorly led. It was a good idea made worthless. Should it be the clubs...
