Fair enough, but I don't see that any of that precludes a sale to Haskell or A.N.Other. If anything it only says to me that Higgs are keen to sell.

That could work, although the public transport access is no better than the Ricoh.

More chance of jumpers for goalposts down the park than Brandon. There would be uproar. Difficult to see any stadium that makes sense.

I take that with a pinch of salt. SISU didn't appoint this guy randomly. He is just trying to distance himself to try and maintain at least a facade of impartiality.

Exactly my point.

Unless ACL had new owners, changing the game, which was the point of this thread. Generally though I think you are right, the most likely outcome is that SISU will remain in charge, we will play outside of Cov and the ticket sales will dwindle to almost nothing, placing the club at severe risk...

To play devils advocate for a moment, what evidence do we have to suggest that Haskell would be any better as an owner? I think more fans would come back to the Ricoh with the club still in SISU control than would go to home games outside of Cov.

They are assumptions correct but assumptions based on what we currently know. Its hypothetical but so are all threads on this matter.

The council and higgs have both indicated a willingness to sell their stake in ACL, just not to SISU. If Haskell offers the right amount of cash they will take it, simple as that. The clubs option on the Higgs share does not prevent its sale to anyone else, its just an agreement for the club to...

.......... that SISU are not going anywhere. They clearly hold all the cards, aside from the 10 point deduction you would never know we were in admin because Fisher and Co have just carried on as if nothing has happened. I firmly believe that they would not have voluntarily placed CCFC ltd in to...

I tend to agree with you and I certainly hope it proves to be the case. I only make the point about it because I work for the Government and countless times I have seen seemingly impossible situations come to pass and bizarre decisions made seemingly to the benefit of no one. You can't rule...

As things stand yes - but councils change. Give it a couple of years and there could well be a very different set of people in charge. Plus they will have to have a very concrete reason for refusing the permission, they cannot simply do it because they dont like SISU because they would be...

Much of the former peugeot plant at Ryton has been built on now as part of a new science and technology park whilst a section has been set aside as a nature reserve which was part of the conditions for granting the building works there in the first place. There are only two open plots...

Well said that man, agree 100% I live in the North West (have done for a long time now) and I follow Rochdale as my second team, if the unthinkable should happen and CCFC ceases to be then I will likely just go to a few more Dale games than I do already but I would not become a Rochdale...

I wouldn't be at all surprised if he "leaves" then re-signs for us in a month or two on new terms. He had other offers last season but chose to come back to us instead so obviously wanted to be here and the fact that he didn't exactly cover himself in glory this season means clubs won't be...

If the worst happens and the club is liquidated for good and all then a new team starting from scratch might work but until that time its just a distraction. Besides if people wanted to watch non-league footy in Cov why wouldnt they just go and watch the Sphinx? They are already up and...

I suspect you may have the truth of it there

If the golden share truly does lie with CCFC ltd then Sisu are not the owners anymore and not in any position to ask for such a meeting.....

I can't really offer anything useful on the first part of your post but as to the second part, even if the administrator decides to make Haskell the preferred bidder, SISU as the main creditor still have to agree to the CVA in order for the sale to go through. The sale could be forced through...

I suspect because they only had 7 days to get the appeal in. I work in the legal profession and it can often take a long time to put the facts of a case together. Hopefully the withdrawal of the appeal is an admission that the golden share is with CCFC Ltd which should in theory make the...
