I think ACL have set out clearly their terms for talking to SISU about any sort of return to the Ricoh (long term or short term). I also think it is safe to believe that to date no approach about a return has been made. The FL insolvency policy would seem to be quite clear that amounts imposed...

This might give some idea of how the compensation scheme works http://fullcontactlaw.co.uk/2014/05/compensation-players-24-mystery/ the Football League rules are here - but I would guess they are open to the usual FL discretion rule...

True Torch ........ there is talent there of course but it is a small pool. I think the key thing is going to be contract renewals because if a player does well and he is out of contract 2015 then he could as has happened far too often in the past allow his contract to wind down. It is not...

Actually if you compare like with like then income on the last set of accounts was 8.3m (turnover 6.5m plus player sale proceeds 1.8m) that's an estimated drop of 3.5m The key point is if we fail to achieve promotion will we have players we can sell for £3m+ ? Most players are on short term...

The figures in the report are for CCC only. ACL had their own barristers and legal team so will be claiming the cost of that from SISU The costs will have to "taxed" - which means the Court checks to see if the costs claimed are reasonable and relevant - so CCC/ACL might not get all their costs...

So it looks like 20 "senior" pros plus those stepping up from the academy. (Last week before the signings there were 10 listed on the official plus the latest 5 plus 5 to come) Average wages for League 1 per the PFA is between £1700 and £2500 pw. Say ours works out at £2000 on average pw. That...

have similar fantasies NW but fear the passage of time makes that very very unlikely :laugh::laugh:

£3m is a good price a L 1 player who has had one good season and before that was injury prone - so not surprised they wont turn it down. Few teams would Would have liked to hold on to him though :( What it does do though is to put £3m in to the FFP calculation...... which up till now...

Maybe so. But I would be surprised if points of European law is what is under scrutiny. The judge said the law in this particular area was "quite clear" wouldn't the basis of their appeal be that this was state aid under European Law though and that because the private investors argument...

I would add it is my understanding that even if the appeal is refused the Court of Appeal as a matter of law must refer points of European law that are not acte clair (ie transparent and straight forward) to the Court of Justice of the European Union

Positive certainly - which makes a welcome change Will be far happier however when the defensive frailties have been addressed - something that was largely neglected last season. We also still need a couple of strikers. Plus depth to the squad. Long way to go yet but there is plenty of time -...

"The Football League will continue with its efforts to resolve what is a complicated and hostile commercial dispute" Question - Is there a dispute as to whether CCFC can occupy the Ricoh? The fans all want that to happen but there is no legal right for the current CCFC to occupy the Ricoh...

So basically its tough luck we are not saying, the fans will have to sit and fret but it isnt SISU's fault. situation normal then

The only thing that the FL are really interested in are their own members (Otium in this case) and getting the fixtures played. I doubt there is any great pressure from the FL to return to the Ricoh. Contact with both sides would have been about the £590k I would guess. Are they in a position...

Personally I see no benefit in Lucas talking with Labovitch....... it needs to the real decision maker. Perhaps ML can convey that message to Joy however.
