    Party on jimmys hill

    Fair play Moff, I appreciate that. And I'm sorry for getting so angry about it, I really try hard to make my point without causing offence but something about this has really got under my skin. I'm sure Cobblers36 and NTFC are perfectly decent types, and like almost all fans we could probably...

    Party on jimmys hill

    Yes mate, yes I would be moaning. It's our ground (or at least was), and I wouldn't want to share it with anyone. Lots of different reasons, but not least of which because I like football to be played on the deck and that's going to be hard if a pitch is churned up twice a week in winter. And...

    Party on jimmys hill

    I think it is partly NTFC's fault, because if their chairman hadn't taken the cash then it would likely have forced SISU down a different road. As for attacking Cobblers36, the point I'm making is that he admits he doesn't care what happens to us, but then seeks to offer "advice" on our...

    Party on jimmys hill

    You've admitted you don't give a fuck, so why are you here at all? Is it to whine about us standing on the hill. Again. Basically it strikes me that you're the forum equivalent of a rubbenecker - you're just here to watch our car crash of a club without actually wanting to do anything to...

    50+1 Fan Control of club

    You mean like Cardoza? We're fighting because we don't think we've lost our club yet, despite all the crap that's gone on. Politely, why don't you start a Phoenix club in Northampton on the 50+1 basis? That way you wouldn't be exposed to dodgy types doing things like groundsharing just to...

    "Jimmy Hillers". Stay away

    Actually, some of us want to fight for our club. It's not dead yet. Being blase means that you probably can't see that. I'm happy enough to debate the why's and wherefores of this with Cov fans who care - but I don't really see the need for advice from someone who is mostly looking out for...

    "Jimmy Hillers". Stay away

    Although in fairness if the reverse had happened and you'd been turfed out, and we'd 'rescued' you to play at the Ricoh, I hope you would have found more of our fans willing to be critical of our owner's actions than you seem to be against yours. I probably wouldn't have objected to you...

    Fisher backtracks already

    Running at break even with the club at the Ricoh might have given them a chance of selling the club and cutting their losses - now what are they going to do? Let's say they run the club at a loss using your figures for the next five years. That puts them £10m down. Then they've got to plan and...

    Breaking news - league letter to Ainsworth

    How completely arse-backwards the FL are. Had they enforced their rules, rather than employ their "discretion", SISU would have had to negotiate with ACL. Indeed as Ainsworth pointed out in an earlier letter of 5th July, there was an offer to play for free whilst in admin whilst continuing to...

    Party on jimmys hill

    I just don't see that, sorry. What the guys on the hill are saying is that we love the team but hate SISU. There's nothing hypocritical in that stance, in fact I'd say it's a more dedicated protest than just doing nothing, it's costing money and time to get there.

    Party on jimmys hill

    Basically then, there are a couple of NTFC fans here who don't seem to like the idea of us standing on the hill. Why that is, I don't know, but I don't believe that it's out of a genuine desire to assist us in our plight. All the excuses they're giving seem a little made-up to me, sorry. If...

    "Jimmy Hillers". Stay away

    Actually I don't think that going and standing on the hill dilutes the protest at all. What it says to me is that we love the club sufficiently to spend our hard earned cash travelling down here to watch them (even with a crap view from the top of a hill), but we hate SISU so much that we're...

    Tim Fisher. Does anybody have anything positive to say about him ?

    Fisher might be a perfectly nice chap away from the football - but imho he's not someone you could ever do business with. You'd have to count your fingers after you shook hands with him. Perhaps not the ideal figurehead for the club on that basis...

    Judicial Review

    I think the deadline for the appeal was pretty short, I'd got it in my head that they only had a few days though where I got that from I don't know. The formal rules are here if you're really, really bored. http://www.justice.gov.uk/courts/procedure-rules/civil/rules/part52#52.15 That section...

    Warwick Uni (land near)

    I would guess that any land worth developing by the Uni has already been developed, by the Uni. Warwick Uni is a big, big place these days. Regardless, again a nightmare for traffic, and I suspect that Cov CC might have some say in that regard given it's right on the border. In truth though...

    fisher on CWR now

    See what you're saying in terms of timings, but it doesn't match what Fisher has said publicly. He didn't say the rent's too high because the council won't let us buy ACL - he just said the rent's too high. And as has been done to death, SISU could have bought the Higgs 50% share, had they...

    fisher on CWR now

    I don't think anyone right-minded has suggested that TF should be physically attacked. But maybe the hatred of SISU stems from the fact that it's their actions that have led us to Northampton. They've been able to step back from the brink a number of times, and negotiate honestly - but they've...

    PSL seats

    Me too, but then this is the way that these crooks want people to behave. They hope that if they make it complicated enough, everyone will just give up.

    Propaganda

    The problem is that once you get caught in an obvious lie, who's going to be dumb enough to fall for it again. (This is the problem that SISU have too). To be honest, I don't know why people are so sad as to just make stuff up. It's kind of pathetic really. I guess the best thing to do...

    Preston Haskell at the Council yesterday ?

    Yeah, that's my thought too. This is now simply politics to her, rather than any genuine attempt to resolve the problem. Having said that, and being entirely sympathetic to ACL's case, all I want to hear from them now is how much they want CCFC back. They need to keep up the pressure on SISU...
