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...

Not a terrible idea in and of itself, but £100k and £50k are pretty big sums, even for our Leamington-based supporters. ;) Did anyone take it up, I wonder?

Yeah, I've had enough of my employer too. I fell over and grazed my knee, and he didn't kiss it better. Bastards. And they're only paying me £100,000 per week too. Where's the respect? I'm off. ;)

Hey, in fairness there was a time I thought I'd got most of this clear in my head, that time has long since passed. I think it was reading and re-reading the hundreds of pages of Higgs trial transcripts and the SISU skeleton argument that finally broke me. By the end of the JR I'll be a...

Truthfully mate, I didn't really like him when he was here. Either he's improved a lot, or I was completely wrong about him. Probably both, but mostly the latter. I didn't think Jordan Henderson would end up playing for England either. :)

Practice makes perfect, and behind our current defence Murphy gets plenty of practice. So I'd say Murphy. Except for the fact that Westwood was a fantastic keeper, and clearly better, imho. I'm sure the (reputed) £20,000 per week takes some of the sting out of not playing in the first team...

Hi Godiva - I think this is separate to that. It wasn't money that came out of the administration as such, this is money that the FL have ordered Otium to pay as part of handing over the golden share to them. This is the sum of money ACL would've been paid had they agreed to the CVA, if I...
