The rent agreement was set at a time when dropping a division wasn't considered, if SISU really wanted to pay a fair rate for being in the third tier then that should have been considered (although I doubt they'd have complained at 1.2m had CCFC returned to the premiership). Of course ACL are...

I'd like to see ACL's balance sheet on that, build a business around getting 15-20k fans, then having to restructure because your tenants force half away. Sooner or later it'd be best to evict the whole sorry lot and find a new cash cow, or show some sympathy for the misfortunate and offer a new...

Interesting tactic, I like it. Re: Friday night games, will the FA have something to say if an inordinate number of home games can't be played on a Saturday...? It's the traditional day, and is easier to find time to attend (although I doubt the number of Cov fans is going to trouble Harry...

I bet you wished you'd gone on "Jim'll Fix It" instead...

Still having some degree of taste prevented me from using names from other camps. Anyone care to subtitle the infamous scene from "Downfall" in a SISU style....?

Even if the Allied forces are approaching Berlin, it doesn't answer the more pressing issue of whether CCFC will be playing at Stalag Ricoh or Stalag somewhere else...

It reminds me of the divorce of Mr M. Jagger Vs Miss J. Hall- where the former tried to declare the marriage null because he suddenly decides it was never legal. That's fine in a divorce court when your Missus is after her 50% plus maintenance, but doesn't reflect on the intentions on the...

Isn't the problem (and was when CCFC were rateable) that Cov is full of Liverpool and Villa fans....? How many people down London have decided to follow some random team miles away because of the colour of their kit..? (Although I hear we're popular in India because of the elephant on the...

My old boss was a Forest fan and was at the game. He maintained that although the cover up over mistakes made by the authorities and the comments made my a certain Red top rag were disgraceful, there's no smoke without fire and the usual antics of football fans and especially Liverpool ones...

Vanguard was always mine.

And you are a Trainspotter...

Ignoring "Who owns what", you've still got a 30 thousand seater stadium that only gets about a third full. Trying to squeeze every penny out of ACL from food and drink revenues is desperation when in fact they should be trying to increase the profit from the gate, by getting more people in...

Same as Wolves- not enough effort from the team and being walked over when they thought a victory was assured.

What about the revenue from tourism that the Royal family bring...? And as for Tesco's, they paid a fair market rate for commercial land that could have gone to a rival or stayed as wasteland. You dont hear of them refusing to pay rent and still not agreeing to a debt payment over 10 years and...

The council shouldn't be there to bolster incompetent owners. I don't even think they should actively be seen to support football teams. Why not ballot council tax payers and ask if their money should go to CCFC, but then again we all know what the answer will be. You could argue the cost...

Yeah right- such is the fickleness of football fans. Would you be saying the same thing if another local team came to ground share at the Reek-o...? Let's face it, in the Midlands you either watch your own team, or pay to see quality at West Brom or Villa. Assuming the attendance will be...

Do you really think Cov would have won the playoffs....? Me neither, and other teams can say we have had an ineffective penalty too.

And neither team owns it outright. Do you think they moan about not getting the revenue from Pies & cups of Tea...?

Don't forget that some people think the council have a moral and financial obligation to support the chippy so it stays in business, when in fact most residents prefer Pizza, Curry, or a Chinese....

I wonder what he thought of the 58th best team in England & Wales...?
