    fat freddie on the way out

    First off it isnt like not paying those wages means there is a pot of money laying around just waiting to be spent..... those wages saved formed part of losses that are either financed by SISU loans or player sales. Secondly we are still trading at a loss..... the club doesnt make a profit and...

    With Fat Freddy Offski does this open money up for a loan or two?

    Freddy has to be on more than £1000 pw - he was bought for £1.2m that implies a substantial salary in itself - AT called him one of the clubs top earners - wasnt there mention of an upper limit of £8k pw for players around the time he was bought - It was reported Michael Doyle was on £8k pw...

    fat freddie on the way out

    nothing frustrates me more than a player with great talent wasting it because of a poor attitude. This is the right move for everyone concerned. My own feeling is it should have happened ages ago. He has overall for different reasons been an expensive failure that we simply cannot afford...

    Orange Ken mid Term report

    I would have thought so...... SISU are only managers and have a duty to their clients to keep their investment reviewed. I would have thought an investor could get an investment report any time they like but it wont be detailed in terms of say decisions taken ar CCFC, more a summary of worth...

    Orange Ken mid Term report

    not at all - i have always thought the ones pulling the strings were SISU with a bit of help from RR in the beginning. You dont spend out millions and lose control of it - just not logical to think they wouldnt be

    Orange Ken mid Term report

    the 2010 accounts for CCFC show he was appointed 01/02/11. He was appointed director CCFC Holdings 22/11/10 and of SBS & L 20/12/10. That doesnt make the decision process so clear cut ...... why didnt he get appointed to all 3 on one date ?

    going back to the last ten games of last season were not the key players Clingan & McSheffery ? Wasnt everyone praising them as to how well they played in the system? They seem to have gone missing this season Westwood - very good keeper but last season was not his best and though he made some...

    What can Thorn do differently, assuming he can't bring anyone in?

    thought we already tried the 8 man formation Otis ....... certainly seemed like it at times !:whistle:

    Would you pay more to watch the team win?

    in a word no Given that we often have runs of games where we dont win in 15 I think this would be a financial disaster for the club. As said above how do you work it for season ticket holders? I wouldnt want to pay extra because we won ...... I buy the season ticket in the stupid...

    I think Saturday was a lack of confidence in what they were doing and a lack of leadership on and off the pitch. I think you are right to raise the questions M&D despite the faith in AT of others. I know you are not advocating AT to go just that he looks at how and why. I do some coaching and...

    The “Thorn has nothing to work with” quotes i keep hearing is bollocks and this is wh

    I still think fans understimate the boost that getting rid of AB and appointing AT gave the team. AT immediately adopted a more attractive style of play that took us and the opposition by surprise. It gained us a few results and kept us up. However think back to a lot of those matches end of...

    The miracle workers

    Am inclined to agree with Macca. They havent worked a miracle simply kept a side together that can compete on its day.... but have done it under very difficult circumstances. Has the job done been outstanding ? not based on the results it hasnt (this is a results business) and before folk say it...

    Did Hoffman overvalue the club?

    Being a CCFC fan is admirable and preferable but it isnt what concerns me Nothing I have read has in essence said anything other than more of the self same deal structure that has repeatedly failed this club and others. To my mind the restructuring needs to be more radical than that or we...

    Ownership Rules

    Yes i know crowsnest but who owns SBS&L Group ..... that is the actual ownership, SISU would say the funds do but who owns those. I think these regs make it clear they apply to all group companies and associated entities worth a question to the league though ?

    Ownership Rules

    is worth a try and the worst they can say is no. The risk is some investors dont want to be identified - they could demand their money back if info disclosed. That could have financial consequences for not just SISU but CCFC also
