    Time for a trust statement

    Probably because they are convinced or have been convinced that they are correct on their interpretation of the law. I'd guess until they're told by the highest court going that they're wrong or right they're not going to give up JR1. I can imagine it's like a giant game of double or nothing to...

    Yeah that's true but if they left tomorrow I'd forget them in an instant.

    When did Wasps first approach CCC?

    Not really if you believe that Wasps had everyone sign non disclosure agreements. They could have had a load of reasons for the timing such as availability of funds etc. It isn't proven that it was timed and calculated by the council to cause maximum embarrassment to Sisu.

    When did Wasps first approach CCC?

    We may have been on their shortlist for a long time but they couldn't do anything whilst we were there. I would expect that when we buggered off to Northampton Wasps now saw an empty stadium and rubbed their hands. I expect they saw it as a perfect opportunity, and we moved to the top of the...

    You can't just nick the famous RFC line.

    Sisu bullying back-firing?

    Really? Someone wanted the Ricoh before Sisu came into our lives? Do you have any idea who it was?

    Sisu bullying back-firing?

    Did the Higgs force us into the rental deal? I believe that Sir Higgs suggested a (rejected) sliding rent scheme which we don't know the details of. It was also established in one of the court cases that the amount of the rent was in large part determined by the YB loan repayments. I don't know...

    Sisu bullying back-firing?

    I'm talking about way before then, before rent strikes, court cases, Tim Fisher etc.

    Sisu bullying back-firing?

    When they first came to our club and there was a clean slate no one knew much about them. I'm talking the very start with Igwe & Ransom when there was hope. At that point in time no one had any reason to block a sale of the Higgs Share. No one on either side had been annoyed by the other and...

    Sisu bullying back-firing?

    No I'd rather we'd have bought the Higgs Share and before any of the animosity began. Then it would have meant we had access to the books of ACL and a possibly better chance of getting the other half of ACL. Sisu could have then brought in whoever they wanted to run the place. If the (two faced...

    SISU/ARVO appeal turned down

    This time it's the Warwickshire trust or something like that who are making the offer to stay at the Higgs as they're the new owners. Now whether this is a genuine offer or one designed to make the Warwickshire trust look good I've got no idea. I wouldn't put money on it but the negativity...

    Another Wasps payday bonanza..

    No idea if that's true but it's funny.

    Mean while back in court

    I doubt that they're on a no win no fee deal. Can't imagine anyone would take that risk. Didn't someone say before that the legal action was being bankrolled by Sisu and not the Club?

    Mean while back in court

    We passed the "Pack it in Frank you silly bastard" stage a while ago. As OSB58 says, they ain't finished yet despite first one Judge and then another three telling them what they don't want to hear. I was hoping that we'd be able to concentrate on the football now not the court cases, guess not.
