Exactly, if you were going the start including satellite towns not part of the greater urban area you would have to add 600K to Leicester's urban conurbation population, because the population of Leicestershire is 1 million. Whether you look at City population, urban area, local authority...

Agree with above, worst atmosphere at a city away game for a good while. Very subdued.

Knowing my 3 year old, she'd enjoy the bus ride more than the game! I still reckon Friday's game will be at the Ricoh, but just a hunch.

It's not the snow you have to worry about, it's the rain, they've had a lot of it and have cancelled their academy game. Should be on, but not a guarantee. On the 8.30 bus also, will probably be almost there if it is called off!

It's funny how those that seek to demonise SISU at every turn will constantly refer to events that happened years ago to support their case. What they don't bring up so often (strange this) is how the council INSISTED that the club ONLY deal with SISU when there were other interested bidders at...

Indeed. A lot of people got caught up in the idea that a new stadium would be a fresh start, would increase gates etc and there was a desire to make it happen. Have to confess, I was in favour of moving back then. Hindsight is a wonderful thing.

Love cricket, but never over football.

Creditors you mean? We've been led to believe there are no creditors other than ACL and the owners themselves.

According to Robinson today, there was another option, and they had a back up plan to buy back Highfield Road. The council saved the stadium project, but they didn't 'save the club' in the way people credit them for.

No doubt. No way ACL would do that to ordinary supporters. Wouldn't be good PR if they did.

More SISU lies? I want my 7 minutes back!

Will agree on that. Would much prefer to hear Fisher challenged on the radio.

Does it really? The only people who really care about this sort of thing are the likes of me and you, and we're all here talking about it. Mainstream media are redundant in this process and have been one step behind the whole way, and all of the major revelations have come via this forum and...

Don't ask. It'll make your head hurt. Welcome to the forum BTW.

Just starting to settle now. Been sleeting for a while, but all that hot air from SISU and ACL has raised the temperature a notch or two around these parts...

Surely they'll sell them out of Ryton or will make other arrangements? Something will be sorted. There will be sold tickets that are currently awaiting collection, so they'll announce something. And there's always the post?

What loyalty? I have repeatedly criticised SISU on here, along with ACL, because both deserve criticism. You, on the other hand, have never uttered a single word criticising ANYTHING ACL have done or said. Your position has to be the most entrenched of everyone on here, to the point where...

Yeah, I hope so anyway as I don't have a ticket yet. You have to get tickets from the ticket office down there I think.

It didn't give the club everything they wanted, they would have wanted to pay no rent at all. It was a compromise all along. Why it stalled on what appears to be a technicality only SISU can tell us, that I honestly don't understand, and for that clearly the finger must be pointed at SISU...

But they're not going to get the arrears, and they have already stated they would not have thrown the club out. So, now they will not get the arrears and it looks like they won't have the football club as a tenant either. They have played their hand appallingly. Not only that the club will...
