Not unreasonable Ian although I do not see it being that simple (that's not to say I do not wish it was) Couple of comments and I am not trying to be deliberately negative, more highlighting some potential sticking points - you say no loss to ACL from the stadium bowl being CCFC's but wont...

I cant see a charity paying a six figure amount for sponsorship at a L1 football club like Fisher said the deal was though sw88?

think he is a sweeper because he has his own broom

QUOTE=Otis;726235]I love number 7. 7) Sisu criticised a £14.4m loan to ACL, which they argued was a failing business. But the judge responded by pointing out Sisu had ploughed £50m into a “hopelessly loss-making football club” in the hope they could make profit by buying into the Arena. He...

You know what is really scary is looking at the squad members shown on the official website The loans and leavers have not been taken off but we are left with a squad of 18 currently where 5 have yet to make their league debut plus Our current first team keeper has yet to play for...

Why not? Because Broad Street are already on it perhaps?

So the football club is arms length from the court actions that are going on ........ ie nothing really to do with CCFC not quite what the official website says The full judgement from the Judicial Review between Coventry City and Coventry City Council available... The Judgement by...

The number of times I have been accused of being a plant for someone stupot I am beginning to feel like chrysanthemum !!!! :laugh::laugh:

Sorry but I fear it was always going to be the case that it would fail - They could have approached ACL any time to get a deal but have steadfastly refused to do so. That is not however to decry Michael for trying But then again in my opinion I do not think that Fishers comments about the idea...

I am guessing "First4Lawyers" would stand a good chance of being sponsors :whistle::laugh:

just out of interest anyone clear to which particular principle of law SISU are planning to try to appeal or are we assume it is all of the JR case? the appeals process appears to be this Court of Appeal In most cases permission to appeal to the Court of Appeal is required. The...

Not sure it is over Don ........... think this has a ways to run yet even if the judgement handed down seems quite unequivocable. What the Higgs case and this JR has done is however to make clear that the Trustees and Council Officers acted properly in their legal duties. I seem to remember...

First off a prediction SISU will approach ACL/CCC for a short term rent deal adding in rights to match day income as part of the rent. ACL/CCC will say we are willing to talk but you will have to buy the income rights, security will be required, but rent will be L1 relevant. SISU wont want to...

The SBS&L accounts for 2012 and 2013 are group accounts and include all income and expenses of the football club whichever company in the group owned it (including those in administration etc ). Hope that helps

His judgement states he agrees with the conclusions reached by the Judge in the Higgs case

do not see what there is to celebrate......... no doubt there will be more legal moves and more of the same over the next few months. I would think both ACL and CCC are very well aware of that. Fisher has already said they will appeal. This however has never ever been about the football club...

questions for Mr Fisher - how does a league 1 football club manage an interest bearing debt burden of £40m+ plus build costs of a stadium of say £30m plus losses during the time it takes to build said new stadium? And yet you say the decreasing £14m ACL debt burden is unmanageable and an...

Was told the other day that Brookfield the accountant guy at CCFC had left ...... not seen it confirmed anywhere so not sure if true could be just a rumour....... but is that a sign of the financial mire we are in?

Still everyone else's fault I guess then. The judge acknowledged the Loan to Value argument but made a clear distinction between a new investors actions and those of an existing key stakeholder. It would seem to me that the Council and ACL are happy with the loan arrangement. Equally who is...

Yes I know NW ....... never thought they battered in court as such more that they used courts as a weapon ...... clearly they are prepared to take very high risks in the cases they present banking on out funding their opposition. The Judge made clear in his judgement he did not see the escrow...
