    Buying the Higgs Share

    Lets put it this way I wouldnt want to be the auditor that did.......... they would be taking a huge risk. The bottomline is if something happened to CCFC and it went bust but suppliers had relied on the auditors report that CCFC was a going concern for at least the next 12 months( from now)...

    Buying the Higgs Share

    A dividend if distributed is payable to all shareholders..... however in ACL's case one cant be voted because the profits since 2006 do not exceed the losses prior to 2006 - a dividend would be illegal. But in any case no dividends will be paid until loans are paid off. 50% does not give you...

Fixed assets showed 25m of which 19.6m was the leasehold interest Their accounts are due to be filed this month so will be interesting to...

    Breaking news: Acl call off rent talks

    But I am not sure you understand what was being done................ CCFC get the matchday income in their records but it would have been cross invoiced to the EIC joint venture of ACL and Compass................. there would not be a normal profit as say selling in a shop........... the profit...

    Buying the Higgs Share

    the option gives first chance of buying the shares ... at a price acceptable to the Charity (there is a mechanism to calculate but Charity could set that aside). Right now I wouldnt bet that the Charity want to sell to SISU let alone the Council veto it

    Breaking news: Acl call off rent talks

    I take your point :) they are the only ones we have though and I only quote them because TF highlighted the last year to suit his purpose Yes the facilities are possibly used more than HR but ..... I would guess the catering is all catering not just F&B's .............. CCFC currently sell...

    Breaking news: Acl call off rent talks

    can only tell you what CCFC have declared to everyone in their audited accounts. I agree the figures look out of synch to me but I assume have been checked

    Breaking news: Acl call off rent talks

    Actually as I understand it the money in the Escrow account is from a football grant that was supposed to go against the build costs but the council agreed could be used as the rental deposit.............. so did the football club ever pay it in the first place ?

    Breaking news: Acl call off rent talks

    It would be torch but i dont have that info....... you would have to factor in the £6m clear profit the club made when they sold the catering rights and compare that against the profits made from the "lost" turnover less the cost of those sales.............. wonder if in terms profit over that...

    Breaking news: Acl call off rent talks

    Not sure I fully understand the surprise of some at this CT report ......... surely you didnt think ACL would just sit there and let it go on forever? Let me see company decides enough is enough and stops doing something in an effort to get talks ....... sounds familiar? Shock ! The issue...

    Tom Fisher Q & A email

    would be interested to see what people defined as a failing business ....... given TF's latest quotes in the media and why support of one is a no go but the reverse is expected anyone care to give their definition?

    Tom Fisher Q & A email

    Would be interested to know if what CCFC has paid to ACL as match day expenses includes VAT or not. My understanding is that the Rent at Ricoh is not chargeable to VAT (no option to tax has been made). So if VAT is charged on the match day expenses and CCFC has paid it then they must therefore...

    Tom Fisher Q & A email

    Having read the last 13 pages of this thread I would say that TF's email Q&A has been highly successful :thinking about:................. It has raised new issues that were not mentioned before in the last 11 months, muddied further others, made unsubstantiated claims mixed with the odd...

    With the bank accounts effectively frozen

    the accounts affected are the CCFC ones ...... the group will have others SBS&L for example...... or SISU can use one of their "client accounts" which would be a seperate account established for CCFC that could be used and the money is protected as CCFC's (i do not mean an account at a client...
