    Maybe the hypocritical council will hire Mr Loophole to get them out of it.

    But was he basing that on the new skeleton arguments or the full facts of the original case?

    It might have been at the moment they said it but business then tailed off shortly afterwards. Awhile back we had the best start to a week we've ever had and the MD phoned as we were cashing up at the end of Wednesday to say well done. Sales tanked after that and we were marginally down on our...

    Newspapers can* actually express bias think of the red tops that come out in favour of a particular party before and on the day of a general election. Now your TV and radio media can't do that in this country and stations have been had up for bias relating to this before. *although I am not...

    I object to the idea that they're peddling about us getting a new stadium built. Even the Telegraph must know that's a figment of imagination.

    I think it is probably worth pointing out that at this stage that there likely won't have been a thorough examination of the arguments of either side. I expect that the only thing that the judges saw today was the skeleton arguments. The JR appeal judge will be able to dig deeper and ask more...

    Sisu have won the right to an appeal. Judges think perhaps JR1 + 2 should be done at same time. October talked about as likely date. They have now to prove their argument in court at another JR. Talk of compensation etc. is only talk until they succeed in convincing a judge and I think will...

    Didn't someone say before JR1 that it wasn't about the money it was about the use of public funds to loan to a private firm? I'm going out shopping I think now.

    Well maybe but to do that surely they've got to be able to prove that they were told that they couldn't play at the Ricoh. Will be interesting to see if they can do that, probably won't have helped that the club moved themselves out of the stadium.

    I wonder if they'll get any of the stuff they've asked for barring the interest rate. On the case of having to move grounds is that going to be easy to prove? The council could I suppose point to the fact that a deal was struck with that nice man Mr Appleton to finish the season at the Ricoh as...

    We need Amanda Lamb, she sells Ryton with the bonus of getting a free football club thrown in.

    I didn't say that I was happy and I was talking from a financial standpoint. If the costs of the continued court action are going to be added to the club debt mountain then that's going to affect us. If Sisu want to pay for their legal campaign against the council themselves and the costs if...

    I don't care if Sisu want to keep the council in court till the next millennium so long as it doesn't affect the club or the team.

    Coventry City Ladies.

    They couldn't call the team Coventry City Ladies Football Club though from what I've read.

    Or Wasps as the owners of the Ricoh lease are also now known.

    Wasps new deal with Compass

    Did Wasps buy those contracts out do we know or did they just come to a natural end? The Higgs at least had propper negotiations that we (thanks to the court case) know more about where the judge said "neither party had any appetite to seek to persue negotiations or seek to conclude such a...
