    Details of Wasps' Ricoh Arena deal with council revealed

    I agree that if you can't get all your money back by selling the asset your money isn't safe and there is some risk in this deal (significantly less risk than the original deal however), but whether the lease can be sold for the full value of the loan or not (and none of us know either way) I...

    Details of Wasps' Ricoh Arena deal with council revealed

    If the Lease reverts to the council and no one wants to buy it (I don't really accept that is a realistic scenario) but should it happen the council would likely lose money, more realistically they couldn't sell it for enough and would lose some money but there is risk in any investment and...

    Man City v Barcelona on General Sale

    Man City do have some of the cheapest season tickets, though they also have plenty of expensive season tickets too Early bird prices for people renewing in the family stand might be £300, but normal prices for the other 3 stands are £400 to £730, still relatively cheap for the talent on offer...

    Details of Wasps' Ricoh Arena deal with council revealed

    Thats not how it works, the longer you borrow over the more you pay back. If 10% interest is the commercial rate for this risk then it's likely going to be 10% at 20 years or 40. The council had obviously done a good deal for ACL to protect them due to them owning half of it but wanted to...

    Details of Wasps' Ricoh Arena deal with council revealed

    ccc will be the main creditor and likely end up with the lease back to sell again. We might not fully know if it's a good deal for the council but we do know it's a massive massive improvement over what the loan was previously and if it isn't considered a good deal it shows again how ccfc...

    Man City v Barcelona on General Sale

    They have 36000 season tickets and a wait list for season tickets. It's hard to imagine that it's true that 20,000 tickets went onto general sale Though I guess if you've spent £600 on a season ticket watching a game that costs £50 midweek in february at home/pub for free is tempting however...

    Details of Wasps' Ricoh Arena deal with council revealed

    If they can that removes the risk (though also the profit depending on what the early repayment penalties are) completely from the council and if they can't that shows even further why ccfc building a stadium is a complete non starter.

    Details of Wasps' Ricoh Arena deal with council revealed

    If thats true thats really bad news for sisu and their second JR, that makes the councils decision to sell a much better decision financially.

    Carl Baker

    Both of them have appalling scoring records in the championship, yes Bakers is worse but when you are comparing 1 goal a season to 2 it's hardly relevant.

    Wasps deal will be externally scrutinised

    like after the JR where everyone listened to the facts and the decision of the judge and altered their views accordingly :D

    Wasps deal will be externally scrutinised

    I'd like to say you can't argue with that, but we all know we can.

    Wasps deal will be externally scrutinised

    I already responded in another thread started by Simon when Toorch asked the same question. But I stand by what I said and no I don't think it should apply to newspapers. Not going to hunt out my full reply explaining my reasons though, you can do that if you wish.

    It was calling on the government for something I think but I barely remember, the petition wasn't on the website, the website just automatically redirected to the petition, it had about 20k signatures I think but whoever has pushing it micheal I think really struggled to get anymore and it...

    fixfootball

    godaddy, I got an e-mail a couple of weeks back saying it expired (and will be automatically renewed) on the 17/02/2015, I was going to ask people here and then cancel it in the week before. however this morning they e-mailed saying they had charged my card £6.50 for another year. So I thought...

    fixfootball

    I only paid £2.50 for it last year, you can't currently buy it probably because I only just canceled but it might well pop back up again for a couple of quid in a few days. I brought it from www.godaddy.com The trust are welcome to buy it if they wish they don't need my permission. You can buy...

    fixfootball

    I paid for the fixfootball.co.uk domain last year, I just got the option to renew it for another year for £6, seemed like a waste of money so I cancelled it. So if anyone cares about having fixfootball.co.uk link to the petiton (I can't even remember what it said) you'll have to rebuy the domain...

    Trust calls on Coventry City FC owners Sisu to sell-up and leave

    I agree it's hardly news at all, and the result not surprising in the least, though while relatively pointless I have no issue with (in fact I support) it being made explicitly clear every once in a while that Sisu need to sell up, my comments were in relation to the amount of discrediting of...

    League 1 FFP rules and myths debunked (CET article)

    exactly but while it's not news to anyone who spent the couple of minutes to look it up (or taken it in here), it is news to everyone whose understanding comes from Fisher and Waggots comments which I suspect is the majority (less so on this forum of course, though even here I think there is...

    Trust calls on Coventry City FC owners Sisu to sell-up and leave

    It's funny how upset the group of fans that insists they hate sisu as much as the rest of us get at a poll about wanting sisu out.
