I think if you're serious about progressing your career and aiming for (say) the Prem and international status, it's a mistake. As a lifestyle and cash choice though, it must be tempting...

Or 400 people taking a punt on whether Otium will still be in business, perhaps. Politics aside - if I was buying a season ticket, I'd be using a credit card for some or all of the purchase so that I had some protection if it all goes pop over the summer...

In the same way that Wilson leaving opens the door for a return for Daniel Sturridge, perhaps. ;)

If there's going to be some detailed explanation of the finances, and how building a new stadium stacks up, or why it's impossible to return to the Ricoh on a rent deal whilst negotiating for everything else, then I'll happily attend. I don't really think we need the Council there for that...

Apparently ML reads this, so maybe he can confirm directly or via someone here that has his ear. If it's really the case that SISU are prepared to talk to the council about dropping the JR so that negotiations can begin about all of the other stuff, then that's a story to my ears and one that...

Absolutely spot on. I know Rob, and although we differ on some of this he's a good bloke. He's not doing this out of some desire for fame and glory. The point you make here about pulling out all of the dirty washing is excellent. I'd love to know everything that's gone on for all sides, but...

Are you sure? Look at all of the heat around taking on the mortgage. And can you remember all of the fuss when there was the vote to step into the Ricoh build in the first place? This is a pretty big issue now in the City, whether you're a fan or not, imho.

On the contrary mate, I think non-supporters will likely care a lot more about Council money being lost on some deal that favours SISU/CCFC over the taxpayer.* And in a legal sense of course, the council can be held to account if they are found to do something like this. *Hasty edit: On the...

It wasn't Ian Calvert again either, was it? He didn't exactly cover himself in glory. Regardless, I know you've been told otherwise, but I think SISU could stop the JR if they wanted to. The precise rules seem to be here...

Parody? Seriously. You complained about ad homs when there clearly weren't any in my original posting way back when, this whilst chucking them out right, left and centre yourself before and since. That makes you a hypocrite. Or you don't understand what ad homs are, which makes you a halfwit...

I think your whining about ad homs started here... http://www.skybluestalk.co.uk/threads/44983-Council-Protest/page5?p=701896#post701896 It's perhaps no surprise you don't remember, given that almost all of your posts seem to go off on one about how people are idiots, f*cking heroes (ironic)...

Woo-hoo, another personal insult. Much easier than debating the issues though, eh. At least I've got a game to up, all you've got is a pathetic obsession with slagging people off. Bit sad, really. And if it's a choice between being a pretentious know-it-all and a rude half-wit I know which...

You must be the biggest hypocrite on this forum - you whine about ad homs and people hiding behind their screens pontificating, whilst simultaneously throwing out insults to everyone whilst hiding behind your keyboard. In fact, have you ever made a post where you haven't called someone an idiot...

There's a huge flaw in the logic here. Pointing out the 'failure' of Patton's campaign is not the same as not caring about the future of the club. Far from it.

In response to a question in fairness: Tim Russell ‏@timmyruss 4h @TheSimonGilbert How did Spurs fan & friend of SISU Brian Patton get on...

Since it appears SISU are telling you about stuff that they're not sharing publicly, can I ask what was the scope of these proposed talks, Rob? Was there, for instance, any suggestion that the JR might be dropped? Was the possiblity of returning to the Ricoh on a rental deal whilst other...

I wouldn't dispute any of that gent, it's just that I think Celtic would expect to appoint a 'big name'. I'm not saying it's right, mind, I'm just saying that for that reason alone I don't think Pressley has a chance of it at the moment. I should add that despite having Irish roots and some...

Well he'd done a pretty decent job as caretaker manager there before being appointed, and had the added bonus of being skipper and playing a couple of hundred times for them. No disrespect to SP, who I think is doing a good job here, but in Celtic terms Lennon's profile is probably slightly...

Probably not, but I don't think he's quite high-profile enough for the Celtic job... yet.

On the upside we've got a really smart manager (imho) and a terrific fanbase at this level. If by hook or by crook we could get back to the Ricoh, and do a bit of wheeling and dealing I think we could get out of this league without too many problems. The Championship is a much more difficult...
