    Ryan Haynes

    Haynes - no pressure there then. Of course nothing like keeping quiet about one of our talents either, or advertising his talent in December That's just me being sceptical and cynical though

    Relegation battle or not ....

    we are in it at the moment I think but there is time for that to change. Certainly do not see us pushing for promotion, but even that is still possible (but I feel very unlikely). If we are talking form guide then after 19 games the table doesn't really lie does it 18th is not pushing for...

    The New Stadium-SISU please tell us the truth!!

    40m over say 25 years at 2% = repayments of 169k pm (a total of interest over 25 yrs of 10.9m) 5m on the same terms is a monthly repayment of £21k All depends on the deal for rights to income doesn't it. Can a deal be done that works for both? Ownership has never been an absolute must have...

    The New Stadium-SISU please tell us the truth!!

    I think the biggest problem that they will have with planning permission is how it fits in with the long term business & development plan of CCC. Any new stadium is going to require infra structure to be put in and if that is deemed to be less important than other infra structure plans already...

    The New Stadium-SISU please tell us the truth!!

    Thought it would be interesting to look at incomes at another club. Picked on Bristol City and the figures below show the split of income for the final two years in the Championship ending 31/05/13. They own their own ground and it has a capacity of 21497. It is a group structure that has a...

    The future

    well as we now have "fans" representation at Board meetings (one tomorrow) then it should all be asked and made much clearer then .......... not holding my breath on that though :whistle:

    Has anyone got any updates from the SBT meeting tonight?

    I think any CCFC fan would have to support it BSB if that was what had to be done. That it implies it is to be the only or final option left doesn't it. Because otherwise before accepting the owners assessment personally I would want a lot more detail, reasoning and comparison as to why "it had...

    Rent or own stadium?

    Ideal world every club owns its own stadium. Real world is not like that though But for me the focus has to be the team and that has to be based on sustainable long term income streams, especially in L1, those can be available whatever type of set up you choose. The club has to live within its...

    Meet Wasps Tonight And Ask Your Questions

    Isnt the truth of the matter that the previous stakeholders don't have to beat the club with anything going forward........... they no longer want or need to care. (you can question if they ever did if you choose) The new owners would like to do business with the club but they wont have based...

    I guess we will have to wait until February when the accounts filing deadline is to find out if ACL were being distressed by the dispute. One thing is for certain understanding the ACL financials changes as from October 2014. My own guess for the year to 31/05/14 is that turnover has increased...

    Do we know it wasn't on offer? Do we know that option was closed to SISU but open to others? Do we know that SISU even broached the subject? Do we know there wont be a new stadium? - lot of supposition around this forum and other places. What I suspect is that there were a lot of" political...

    will congratulate the flexibility when I see it and a true desire to maintain it NW ........ precious little evidence of it so far, words mean nothing without action. There are options there always have been but it takes two to tango and whilst SISU maintain this new stadium stance with no...

    To be fair NW he came round to that only when it was absolutely obvious they couldn't get the freehold. Before that he and his mates were not interested in it at all Paxman II and I used to have discussions on here about long leases etc probably over 2 years ago. It wasn't so difficult to...

    no not quite BSB. ARVO had to go through the registration process, there had to be meetings and discussions, there were professionals engaged to advise it took time to do that, time to organise. We will never know when it started exactly but certainly well before rent became the issue..... if...

    Didn't the problems with the rent start in April 2012 and relegation? You see I do not think they were "merely" looking for a rent reduction - once Fisher & Seppala were fully engaged in project Coventry it was never about the revenues. It simply is not what a hedge fund is about, capital return...
