    Mean while back in court

    Think it baffles most people Nick. The problem they will have in claiming any compensation will be linking the cause and effect. JR1 would seem to be gone so once the club threw the keys in at the Ricoh then they severed any links Here is another thought. The prospects of doing an improved...

    FL Family Experience Award

    not wishing to detract from the excellent work that Pat etc do but this is like a quality standard not a best in class award. Something like 40 other clubs also won it this year too...

    Mean while back in court

    Whoever gets the nod from the judges tomorrow I seriously doubt that's the end to it. If SISU win then there could be a CCC appeal but certainly there will be legal proceedings initiated by SISU against those they feel have done them wrong that follow If CCC win then there could be a SISU...

    FL Family Experience Award

    You would have to say that the JSB/Family area has been the single consistent shining light in the deep dark mire that has been CCFC for many years MBE for Pat - why not

    Nice Touch from Chris Stokes

    but if you connect it to what Nick says it seems that his community effort with the kids is a long standing commitment and not a one off. The letter is part of that I suspect more than an attempt to deflect a twitter storm that few will remember in a couple of months I would guess Josh and his...

    Premiership Relegation

    I think the team that will cope with the relegation best is Norwich. Financially they run a tighter ship and have (with respect) players better suited to the Championship Whereas Villa & Newcastle will be bleeding money on players that seem to me not to have the fight needed but huge financial...

    FL Family Experience Award

    Well done to all, especially Pat Raybould and her team of volunteers. I have never thought that their work gets enough recognition or support (including from the club itself) so its good to see them and the club get this award

    SCG Minutes

    didn't say there was anything wrong with being hard nosed in business. Ask Man Utd if they worry about exploiting their fan base. If that means that the finances work properly then so be it. But exploiting the resource is what is going on, and it is an easy one to pick on Not sure where we will...

    SCG Minutes

    the employee numbers included stewards for CCFC - those are not split for Walsall I think the more important employee number is it took CCFC 24 more players & management to achieve failure. base figures 2012/13 total attendance 251848 match day income £2,996,143 2014/15 total attendance...

    SCG Minutes

    Wont know until 2016 figures published but something doesn't feel right to me about what is said on the budget and missing financial targets. Gut feeling but ........ Crowds went up 35% assuming the same sales mix then that should mean the average ticket price could drop 25% and still get the...

    Ticket prices - a huge gamble by the financially prudent SISU

    Ticket prices - a huge gamble by the financially prudent SISU

    Just a couple of comments on the comparison between Richardson and SISU eras. No way meant as a defence of either. Richardson was director from 1993 to 2002 (but he wasn't the only director and legally its joint and several liability for the actions of the company board of directors ie he wasn't...

    Hillsborough fans unlawfully killed

    The damage those in charge did was unbelievable. Where was the compassion or humanity in saying that to her

    unfortunately the accounts do not give that sort of information

    So , what are our owners going to do now ...............

    Good point Only thing I might add though is that often the settlement is staged. A lump sum with clean break is also discounted to some degree. Would depend on what was in the contract.

    scrapping

    Could have been worse ....... werent Notts County in the top six last season come November/December and this season played in L2? Frustrating, made worse by winning 4 of last 5 but over the season a step forward that has to be built upon by CCFC
