    Just who is running the ccfc asylum ???

    He just speculated that the FL have made a 'boo boo'; the premature deduction of 10 points being part of that 'boo boo'. I'm not saying this is what has happened, but I'm not sure why you would ask that question given what he said.

    Ricoh (The Sponsor)

    I posted a couple of months ago that someone I know who works at Ricoh UK told me that this had been discussed at board level and there is a lot of concern about the prospect of the club moving. His reading was that Ricoh would try to renegotiate the terms of the agreement should the club...

    Golden Share Could Be In Holdings After All

    Why? It's an anonymous internet forum, he doesn't have to declare anything. All he said was that "he has a mate who...", just your usual message board fodder. He may well be wrong, who knows, but anyone who declares that they know for sure where the GS is or was is not fooling anybody (and...

    Ricoh Arena Misses Out

    It's disappointing in the sense it would have been good for the city generally, but you can understand the reasoning. Everybody can understand why Leicester was chosen, and MK regularly hosts Northampton Saints for big games and has become known as a Rugby venue, and is a far better stadium and...

    Skyblues Trust email received this afternoon

    Really? Haven't been up there for years. All the more reason to bin the idea of sticking a football stadium there.

    Skyblues Trust email received this afternoon

    I was clearly talking about road infrastructure and traffic volume. That is another issue entirely, but equally wouldn't be valid grounds on which to reject a planning application at public enquiry. 'Our pubs will be full of non-locals for 3 hours 25 times a year' won't really stand up. Keep...

    Skyblues Trust email received this afternoon

    Don't think for one minute that I believe it can happen or should happen, but the Ryton site is twice the size of the Ricoh and Arena Shopping Park combined. Space wouldn't be an issue, nor would I suspect road upgrades - since the Highways Agency are planning to upgrade the area around Toll...

    Indeed, although there isn't much residential around there, and it is a brownfield site, so if it went to public enquiry it might go through, but then that process would take years. It isn't feasible for a number of reasons, but it's just what I've heard so we'll see. Just can't work out how...

    I've heard the Ryton rumour too. Planning app being prepared I was told. Could just be Chinese whispers though. Had enough of it all now. Just hope common sense prevails.

    latest statement from Mr Appleton

    It does nothing of the sort, it points to the fact CCFC Ltd are not in a position to pay the bill because they have no money. Again, more attempts to muddy the waters with spin, legalese and talk of contractual complexities. Appleton clearly stated that no issue with the prior contractual...

    latest statement from Mr Appleton

    If both Holdings & Ltd are happy with the arrangement, then there is no reason for AEH not to take the money. Nobody has an issue, not the people paying it, not the FA, only the people set to benefit from the arrangement. It's madness. All this talk of contract terms is just a shameless...

    Great Moments At CCFC Games

    We didn't win away from home all season. It was mostly terrible with a few highlights at home. Edit: didn't replies above from LS.

    Pubs tomorrow

    Should be a decent following. To have sold 1200 ahead of the game is excellent when you consider most people seem to be planning to pay on the gate (owing to the difficulty getting tickets). Should be a good day out if nothing else.

    Sky Blue Trust ?

    But only if there were midgets too. Every self-respecting football supporters collective should have a midget.

    Shocking Moments at CCFC Games

    You have to very careful on here. Any attempt to recall or describe events of a violent nature at football matches and you immediately come under the radar of a small group of posters known as, 'The Sanctimonious Six'; who will analyse that post in detail and if they detect the use of language...

    latest statement from Mr Appleton

    Of course he is asking them to do business with Holdings - that is his point, the arrangement has always worked like that. The company he is running has no money - zilch, it is essentially non-trading. Tell me, would you rather the conversation went like this: PA: Can our academy please play...

    latest statement from Mr Appleton

    They're out in force already. Not even the slightest chance that people will consider that he may actually have a point and is trying to do what is in the best interests of the company he is currently running. No, in the world of the crazies, it is all part of the conspiracy.

    latest statement from Mr Appleton

    What has that statement got to do with ACL? He has clearly got involved precisely because he is running CCFC Ltd, and as we're told that Ltd IS the club, and a functioning football club needs a base for its youth teams, then his involvement is hardly surprising. The question is surely why...

    Sky Blue Trust ?

    Yeah, but apart from all that they're alright? :whistle: I'll give them the benefit of the doubt, but I'm far from convinced. I joined a month or so ago and have heard nothing since. I suppose I could be a bit more pro-active and check the website though. It is a reality of these things that...
