    what is our current 1st team ?

    I think we need to be cautious about the players returning to the team, who've been out with knee cruciate injuries. They may need a little time to play themselves back to form, so MR may have already factored this into his recruitment thinking. It might be that both those players start on the...

    Court Case Thread! June 2018

    Every city/town should have a variety of events and businesses that generates wealth for the economy of that environment. The actual type of sport of events is immaterial. As ever your snapping without thinking. The profile of the economic generating activities will vary according to the...

    Court Case Thread! June 2018

    Correct, but projecting the economic impact on the city of football, rugby or concerts will be variable. Most councils project value per head per hotel room night. In some areas I've known that to be valued as a subsidy passed onto event organisers at £10 per person per hotel night. However...

    Court Case Thread! June 2018

    The amount of revenue generated by CCFC & WASPS fans is not a straight forward calculation. However, CCFC have more fixtures at the Ricoh, but WASPS have a higher average attendance. Having said that I thought it was reported that secondary spend from the WASPS supporters in the stadium is much...

    Court Case Thread! June 2018

    Consistent government policy has been that the private sector is better position for the development of business. So whilst, we have not seen large scale developments it is still relatively early in the business cycle, but that's not to say that it won't happen and if it did.....is the private...

    Court Case Thread! June 2018

    From my understanding, whilst the sale of 50% of the Ricoh is one transaction & the extension of the lease being a second [albeit within a similar timeframe] there is a third aspect to this from CCC's view point. That being the development of business around the Ricoh and an expectation that the...

    To extend the lease - would the Higgs Charity be required to provide any funding?

    Court Case Thread! June 2018

    Prediction - the case will conclude this morning and the learned judges will provide their decision in "x" weeks time. The outcome will be that SISU/CCFC will lose again and they will look for another court to appeal to .....ultimately the European Court. In the interim there will be civil case...

    CCC couldn't force Higgs charity to do business with SISU for their 50%. What does SISU QC expect CCC to do? Interesting question.

    Court Case Thread! June 2018

    From my understanding of the law is valuations are made at the exact time of sale. The fact the lease was extended, even 1 minute after the sale is immaterial.....assuming that had a positive impact on valuation of an asset. What is written in the contract of sale is the key element, if the...

    Ryan Haynes has been sold

    Good luck to Ryan. Whilst we have raised doubts about some of his play - he's always given 100% to the team.

    Ernie Hunt

    Ernie Hunt has to be one of my all time favourite players. Another stand out goal he scored was against Burnley at Highfield road, when in the second half he was passed the ball in the centre circle and looked up and seeing Tony Waiters off his line chipped the ball over his head towards the Top...

    Ricoh Seats

    Given the reported financial situation of Wasps and needing funds to pay for the bonds, I doubt that using sponsorship money for new seats is on their priority list of things "to do".

    Bouwe Bosma - Confirmed Signing

    Mick Coop is making a comeback?

    New Signing about to be announced - Jonson Clarke-Harris

    True and the type of injury he had takes a player time to get back to a level. MR has the ability to improve this player, but he’s got to work harder on his mental side of the game. So far in his career he’s not shown previous managers those attributes.

    Everyone is going to want that name printed on their replica shirts? If they take out a bank loan

    new shirt sponsor

    It’ll have to be a major law firm, due to the close relationship and amount of business our owners generate for them?

    Reise Allassani - New signing

    Experience of seeing a number of players returning from this sort of injury suggests they normally need a few months to form. We may need to be patient and I hope that if JJ struggles at first we don’t start criticising
