    Football League deadline update

    It's nothing to do with football governance, what are you on about? It's to do with insolvency - there's no fucking law that says that ACL have to accept the CVA, the clue is in the middle word - Voluntary. If you want ACL to get on with it, then why are you whining about them turning down the...

    Leon Clarke

    Regardless of him signing for Wolves, I'd still have him back. His only crime was to move to a bigger club for more money. If he wants to come back and pitch in for us again, I can't see the issue. He's not a fan, he's a professional footballer. If it suited the club, because say of a lack...

    Football League deadline update

    Surely we've done all this to death. In ACL's words, they rejected the CVA because... “ACL’s motivation for rejecting the CVA was about much more than pure financial interest. Along with various other parties, ranging from Sky Blues fans and Supporters Direct through to local MPs and...

    Football League deadline update

    Which, in itself, is ridiculous. I'm not blaming SISU for this farce - we know they'll do anything to avoid paying ACL the money. I'm blaming the FL - they're a bunch of clowns. If they wanted to insist on this as a condition for the golden share, why didn't they do it before the last season...

    sisu: 1 week till we hear the truth

    In truth a large part of SISU's argument isn't just about the state-aid, it's about it being used in a way to damage them. Of course, the Judge is only obliged to address the points he sees relevant in law, but it's surprising how wide that can go (if you use the Higgs case as an example)...

    Football League deadline update

    Truthfully, as irritating as it is that SISU are still pissing around with all this, who can blame them? Apparently the FL aren't going to make a decision on this until 6th June, after their conference finishes? What a bunch of tossers - how long would it take for a board meeting to talk this...

    More positive news.....

    Great work mate, and congratulations. Funnily enough, one of my best mates met his missus through football. She used to be a Leicester fan. In fact, it turns out she had kind of a chequered past. She was a student, but fell upon hard times and ended up working as a lap dancing girl. From...

    Rent Money owed to ACL rumour

    Hey, fair play to Bennett's Afro. The bloke in the canteen did have some inside info - I take it all back! In fairness I'm not sure think this relates to the £590k - ACL have lost revenue of 40+ years with the breaking of the lease. And with that, I'm off. I sense it's going to get lively...

    Steady on, what's wrong with being a bloated duffer? ;)

    Joy comes out of hiding to reveal herself

    Don't go there mate, it's not worth it! ;) I think, in fairness, anyone who wanted to meet with ML at least, could've had the opportunity through Nick and others here. There are many things I can blame SISU for, but they are at least trying to engage fans, at the moment. Though I disagree...

    Joy comes out of hiding to reveal herself

    I sense I'm probably in the minority on this, but I couldn't give a monkey's about what JS looks like. If she wants to keep her privacy in regard to photos etc., that's not a big issue to me. What she does though, in regard to our club, that worries me deeply.

    Hi Reg, I think the stuff about the veto and first-refusal relates to ACL, so I don't think that either the due diligence or Appleton would necessarily have been concerned with it. In truth, and imho, it's a bit of a red-herring - I don't think that there's any evidence that either would have...

    My understanding was that CCFC were given 50% of ACL but sold it to Higgs because they were, basically, bust.

    No problem LN, and apologies I wasn't trying to catch you out, I'm grateful for the feedback. It was the only thing I can recall which mentioned this in the court case stuff, which is why I mentioned it. :)

    Fans Forum

    Somewhere, OSB, in all of the trial docs, I think there's mention that ACL is set up so that if one side wants to sell it shares to a third party it must provide the other side with the first option to purchase them at the same price. I don't recall it was suggested anywhere that the Council...

    Joe Murphy...

    To (mis)quote another movie... "Doctors say that Murphy has a 50/50 chance of signing, though there's only a 10 percent chance of that." ;)

    Joe Murphy...

    I think they could have made that case a while ago, couldn't they. Murphy was fairly clear that he wanted to get this sorted before the end of the season. If the club don't care about keeping Murphy, then they've probably done enough. However, if SP wanted to keep him, then this has been...

    Rent Money owed to ACL rumour

    The purpose and benefit is obvious, at least to me. The point of liquidation is that they'd stop having to throw money at the club. As for the golden share - if the club go into admin and/or are sold, the FL can choose to give it to the new owner (as indeed they've just done for Otium, with...

    Rent Money owed to ACL rumour

    In your opinion. I think there probably is actually - but shall we just do one argument at a time, this one's been done to death already.
