In your opinion. Just because you wouldn't be arsed to go, doesn't mean that alot of other people wouldn't. We're getting 2,000 at Northampton. Like I say, I'd rather it didn't happen, but if it does it isn't necessarily the end.

To be honest, I hope that no one goes down the 'Conspiracy' road, as I don't think it's going to help us get back to the Ricoh. But since Labovitch seems to have implied that ACL and CCC might have conspired against SISU, I think it's only fair to consider the possiblity of the reverse option...

Resources from a fanbase far beyond that of most non-league clubs, and I daresay from a few local businesses. I don't want the club to go pop, but if it did I can't see that we couldn't work our way back up the pyramid.

I'm not sure if you're being sarcastic or not here - but I'd have thought if you're a taxpayer you would be thankful. Why should the Council have to pay their own costs? The judge decided that the JR failed, and on that basis SISU lost. The loser generally pays the winner's costs. It's a...

Couldn't comment on OpenCart, but I've got a few ideas/contacts for possible designers for you, perhaps (the company I work for is in the app/website business too, fwiw). PM me your email, if you like.

I've met Fisher, briefly, as have a few others on the forum I think. I don't care much for what has happened to the club under his reign, but if you met him on an individual basis I think most would find him amicable and intelligent. In truth I found myself rather embarassed, because when I...

Don't forget the link, or Simon gets beaten. ;) http://www.coventrytelegraph.net/sport/football/football-news/peterborough-winger-danny-swanson-having-7357682

Which leads me to two (moderately) interesting points. 1) Have CCFC declared JS as a director to the FL, which I think they are obliged to do even if she's a 'shadow' director (Section 3, Owners' and Directors' Test...

It's not a million miles away, that. I think there might be a bit of arm-wrestling over the F&B, because as mentioned that belongs to the company set up with Compass. But as you say, they're getting nothing at the moment. This is the key to negotiation though, everyone has to give a bit, no...

I'd agree with this in part, both sides clearly do better with each other in place. But I don't think that dropping an unreasonable demand is a likely basis for being given a peppercorn rent and the 50% of revenue which was previously sold. I can't see anyone settling for that. But coming...

Aside from moral arguments regarding contracts and law etc. and the fact that (like it or not) the taxpayer is invested in ACL, the way that SISU deal or don't deal with ACL should be of huge interest to any fan of CCFC. It's because it's key to playing football in the city. It also patently...

It's a strawman argument, the OP. People aren't openly celebrating the likely demise of the club. Some people are happy to see SISU lose, because they think this was a case without foundation, brought with the primary intent to financially distress ACL rather than on any point of principle...

It's a whole new model. Other clubs play with a "False 9"... http://www.thefalse9.com/2013/09/football-tactics-for-beginnersthe-false.html ... we've expanded the theory to include a "Bogus 2" and an "Invisible 3". Expect more to follow. SP and SISU, always one move ahead. ;)

In fairness to Robo, I've got no proof that what he says isn't correct, and his opinion is at least as valid as mine (possibly more valid, if you accept that this is also the official line from the club). Happy to agree to differ on this - the only way we'll know for sure is if the legal fees...

No proof mate, but why wouldn't they? You don't go to investors and say we need £9.5 million for the club and £0.5 million for associated legal battles, do you?

Yep, that's a reasonable enough comment. It could well just be restructuring - I suppose it's the timing and everything else around it that make me nervous. No actual evidence in farness.

Not trying to pick a row, but where else can the money come from Rob? SISU are the only ones financing the club. It would seem odd to me to have two pots of money, one labelled "CCFC Funding", and one labelled "Legal Battles (Misc)".

Is this simple cost-cutting, or are they unhappy with his performance? I thought that in general terms SP was happy with the flow of players coming from the academy. The timing of this, just after the JR, and aligned with Blair Adams also being paid off is a little worrying - but then we've...

Actually, fwiw, what I see here is that the club are beginning to realise that they're going to have to talk to ACL/CCC. However, they just can't bear to let the court stuff lie, as it still holds out the slim possibility of giving them a cheap way into the Ricoh. I don't believe for a moment...

Fair play here to Rob. I don't care if we don't hear too much about it, as long as there's some pressure being brought to bear and the chance of a meeting. Stick at it mate. :)
