    Club is fucked

    I think the SISU strategy is to continue in Northants for a few more seasons, get the club cash neutral, (player sales to fund the losses from reduced northants attendances) may lead to another relegation, the Ricoh may become an even bigger white elephant hoping that there is pressure on the...

    Club is fucked

    I said funded a lot of the stadium, just trying to make the point that the financial disaster that was the Richardson era that was a great commercial deal but club's finances were such that we had to rely on the council / higgs to close the deal and explain where we are now.

    Club is fucked

    Richardson was not an owner, he was an employee Robbo & McGin were the main owners, Richarse was responsible for getting Tesco to the Arena site, Tesco funded a lot of the stadium. Richardson with the owners backing form 1995 took a punt to invest in the club and try to make us a top side...

    Club is fucked

    Torch don't understand the question, just stating its clear that Higgs/ACL/CCC won't / can't negotiate with club / SISU there is dislike possibly hatred as well as distrust. Having worked for a hedge fund then I can understand the actions taken - not sure that makes me a fan of CCC but I'm no...

    Club is fucked

    Richardson could only do what he did with the support of the owners

    It really is that simple

    You need to break this news to Sandra Garlick and all the others on the stadium consultation, I think they have chosen the seat colours and the choice of pie fillings but are struggling on how big the scoreboard should be and at what end of the fanatasy fisher bowl.

    Higgs v SISU Court Document

    What I found pthetic about the document was the shambles of a club since they took over was everybody else's fault, not their own incompetence Ineffective due dilligence / negotiation on the rent when acquiring the club Ray Ransom - being allowed to withdraw his stake in the initial investment...

    Club is fucked

    The court case proved that SISU won't deal with CCC/ACL/Higgs, a return to Ricoh highly unlikely, Div 2, Conference more likely than championship or premiership. AFC Cov IMO the only viable solution

    Who's Renewing Their Season Ticket?

    AndreasB can you name to me since we moved to Northampton any reasonable acquisitions or any reasonable medium-term loan signings. Do you believe that Elvis can attract players to play in front of just over 1,000 home fans in a non-league setting. Its relegation all the way next season. its...

    Higgs vs CCFC Court Row

    How about this for a strategy, this case is a smokescreen but the legal team SISU have engaged seems OTT, are they hoping that by revealing factsa/ embarrassing Chris West etc..., that they might settle out of court pre JR just guessing but it seems a lot of effort over £29k

    Higgs vs CCFC Court Row

    SISU's expertise is in the court room, I think from what I've read the £29k & £290k counter-claim are a smokescreen to flush out into the public domain information that will help their case in the JR in a few months. Not sure how this will help them but although I despise them for moving the...

    Bradford Match Thread

    There is no consistency in the teams fleck & thomas not in centre mid, a new forward line, Willis at the back played there a bit full back mostly, Mark marshall making a rare start

    Good morning

    So you have owners that invest in the club and the team but our owners are far better in court than your lot could ever dream about.

    Good morning

    Of the 14 players that turned up at Crewe (some didn't play) I think the only one that cost a fee was Carl Baker from Stockport. £10m is not a lot compared to the PL but to us is huge.

    Wilson and seaborne doubts for tomorrow

    If you are a ST holder or attend games regularly you are always checking the fixture list and often moving work / personal life around to accommodate home games. If you don't go to Sixfields then you don't access it as regularly - simples.

    Good morning

    I think quite a few Lestor fans will be fisted next year in the PL but their investors persistence paid, SISU lost faith after 1 season. Not sure if Pearson is a good manager as he has had a lot of time and resource but his hair needs some gel and he needs to liven up his interviews.

    gresty road today

    Sorry it was a cheap dig. Crewe are quite a high profile club for such a small town. Admired what they have done producing youth talent, if we had come to Crewe 20 years ago when in the Prem it would have been sold out as a potential cup shock, recognise where we are currently but we just...

    Crewe match thread

    Sat in the Crewe main stand, again was expecting a red card, had Paul Scholes been coaching the team on tackling. Connor was subbed cos he would have gone for persistent fouling. Mpussa was a lucky boy a very clumbsy effort whilst on a yellow card. Marshall's booking could easily been red was...
