    kcic @ sisu today

    Was going to post today to say that the picture of the protest made the City AM (though without most of the text that appears online and as that's read by a lot of the people who work in the city a very big boost to the cause - well done. Just a thought but it might be worth mentioning Avro...

    how long do you think ccfc will be financially viable for otium/sisu?

    I'm disappointed that one of mine wasn't your first choice ;)

    "Sisu Out" a good thing?

    Such a shame then that SISU are still here, I wish they'd sold up ages ago. You're right Supporters are in it for the long haul, most just didn't think it would mean a long haul trip to watch our 'Home' matches. At the moment it feels like a life sentence for me and possibly for many fans which...

    how long do you think ccfc will be financially viable for otium/sisu?

    Well as I've said before I'll be at the head of the queue to buy tickets for the White Elephant Stadium. I might even spring for a box and bring a few mates along. I'll buy food, merchandise, programmes etc. I'm that sure it won't happen.

    how long do you think ccfc will be financially viable for otium/sisu?

    So why didn't SISU just sign up to the ten year job and then just bugger off when the White Elephant is done? It's not like they haven't done something similar before. Also I think their timeframe is slightly out given the likely planning challenges, but I might be wrong nobody may object and...

    I prefer the White Elephant as a name but each to their own I suppose.

    how long do you think ccfc will be financially viable for otium/sisu?

    I hate to break it to you but we haven't been a big business in footballing terms for a number of years now. SISU have just worsened the situation and I'd guess we're getting seen as a smaller club as each season goes by.

    MMMmmm

    Wow you've got that right Quite right, is it what Tim said about Ltd being a non trading subsidiary with no assets, or the fact that there were assets in Ltd it had/has a VAT number, had the Golden Share, was carrying out the business of being a football club etc. the correct version of events...

    Revenues Your having a Laugh

    There is no business case for the move to Sixfields, they can't make more money being there thanks to the lower capacity, lower ticket prices etc. The only reason that I can think of for the move is to make sure that they don't give one penny more to ACL in the hope that they can't survive...

    Hoff on the Hill?

    I wouldn't have thought Northampton is any more of magnet for drug dealers, than Ilfracombe is laced with Prostitution. www.youtube.com/watch?v=t5RVeQFK0LM www.youtube.com/watch?v=t5RVeQFK0LM Besides I thought all the dealers are normally looking for clients at the Notting Hill Carnival...

    Have to say that news about the Academy from really did change my image of GH and JE and not in a positive way.

    Hoff on the Hill?

    Is there something wrong with your computer? Because if so I can introduce you by phone to a bloke from the Indian Subcontinent who calls me up and tells me that my computer is causing problems for my broadband provider. I don't have a broadband provider and he might be of more use to you than...

    Attendance at Ricoh today?

    If I had my sneaky bar steward hat on I would have published it the second the council loaned ACL the money. Or at the latest the same time as I had made the claims public (assuming there were no leagal reasons why I shouldn't). They needed to swing the pendulum in their favour as early as...

    Attendance at Ricoh today?

    Fair enough I can't fault that logic and for the record I'm not absolving the council of anything, I'd like an independent investigation into each party in this mess. There is also the fact as mentioned in the other thread that there is the little matter of this being something that might have...

    Attendance at Ricoh today?

    It is far harder to attract new customers than it is to keep existing ones that's one of the first things I was told when I moved into retail. That's why companies run loyalty schemes for existing customers, so that they don't switch to another retailer/hotel chain/airline etc. My first current...

    Attendance at Ricoh today?

    Is there any evidence to back up Mr Fishers claims that he had agreed with the council to distress ACL? That would have been something I'd have been waving copies of of from every street corner but strangely that hasn't happened.

    Ricoh

    As Skybluetony176 has said if Tim has this/these signed agreement/agreements why haven't we seen it/them, that would have silenced the council and possibly got more people to attend at Sixfields. Even if it was just a note on council headed paper signed by everyone saying we agree to distress...
