As I don't know who offered or demanded the extended lease I can't really say that. However the only people who could extend the lease were the council, not ACL, Wasps, the Higgs, Santa, the Tooth Fairy etc. on that The

I'd rather not be wondering whether we're going to be in a relegation battle. It's hard enough to stay positive whilst reading match reports without worrying about relegation too.

The first people to blame are the council in all this, they are in it so deep they're drowning. Only the council as freeholder of the Ricoh could have increased the length of the lease, not ACL or the Higgs. Wasps are unlikely to have made contact with ACL about the sale of their business and...

Just had a PM from someone who said that the lady who deals with the mail order stuff has been away for a week and I guess that has resulted in a backlog of orders. So don't panic if you've ordered something it should arrive.

Sorry I had to dash out to help a neighbour and didn't take my phone. I've just spoken to someone else who found out online that things are being shipped but obviously there has been some delay. I ordered about three weeks ago i think, so I'll wait and see if things turn up within a week and if...

That would be great if you could, thanks.

Thanks, it's been way longer than a week so that's not so good. I've asked someone to get the details from my locker so I can log in and see what's happening.

Thanks that's very helpful ;) I just don't want to dissapoint people at Christmas.

Okay interesting that he said it and that it's not from one of the usual playerts in all ths but still not a true independent assesment. Would still like to see the audited accounts and then have them interpreted (for those of us who have difficulty understanding them) by someone like OSB58.

Does anyone know what the normal length of time for delivery from the club shop is if you order online? I placed an order a while back and it hasn't arrived yet? I can't find my customer/order details/number to check on things as I think they may be in my locker at work.

Ooh on the one hand I want to say yes but also as someone else pointed out the judge in the JR did see more evidence of the ACL finances/financial position than we have. So maybe there was something in what ACL were saying or not. Do Wasps still have to produce the ACL accounts now that they've...

Well they managed to be condemning our move to Northampton and saying how bad that was moving a club away from the supposrters. Whilst they have also then been happily taking Wasps money and allowing a team to move even further away from their supporters. Now that's before we consider the...

I'm not blaming Wasps for making what was from their perspective a very sensible purchase. I don't approve of their move just as I didn't approve of ours to Northampton and obviously the Ricoh is our home, it wasn't built for Wasps. I don't think however that real fans can be pleased that Sisu...

Totally agree, Wasps moving here is wrong and it can't be dressed up as anything else. I have no idea how anyone could be or claim to be a fan of our club if they are happy about Wasps being the new owners of ACL just to shaft Sisu. I freely admit that I'm no fan of Sisu but the Wasps move...

To be seriously pedantic (for which I apologise) I've not seen any evidence that they were talking to each other. The only things I've seen have been report(s) in the telegraph http://www.coventrytelegraph.net/news/red-button-ricoh-arena-chairman-5431948 that getting another sports team (with...

I'm down south and was never going to make it to any meeting given I only made it home at 19:45. I then promptly fell asleep on the sofa and (becuause I looked so peaceful I was just left there) woke up at 5am which is not ideal for my back. I've never hoped that Wasps go out of business as that...

Sisu are only partly to blame for this mess, the council have to take their fare share for it. They bent over backwards it seems to make changes to the ACL lease to make it more worthwhile to Wasps. They also made an about face on their stance on moving sports teams around. They should have been...

Went to Selhurst park many years ago at the start of the season and it looked suspiciously like they hadn't cut the grass on the pitch for a while. My mate who had invited me (palace fan) said that he thought it was deliberate and that they practiced on a pitch with the same length of grass. The...

Wonder if the council had any input into that phrase given their hypocritical statements on moving sports teams around?

Do we know if his four year deal includes a performance clause which means we can remove him without the need to pay off the rest of his contract? Otherwise I suspect we're going to have to pay out a small fortune to get rid of him. I spoke to a mate yesterday after the match had finished and he...
