    Court Match Thread

    Are you suggesting that they just won't pay any costs? Surely SISU wouldn't dream of that... I would hope that paying costs would be a precursor to any appeal. Is there risk that they could just not pay and risk being put into default, thus putting CCFC into admin? They would also be in...

    Court Match Thread

    CT reckon that the SISU QC is assuming there will be an appeal... I guess we will see what they decide in due course, is there a time frame to apply to the court of appeal? I can't see the point given that there surely can't be any more evidence, and what would they be appealing the JR or the...

    Court Match Thread

    So SISU want Wasps to pay the council the shortfall in valuation and also seek damages.... Wow. Then the Ricoh could only ever be sold at 50m going forward? Where would Cov play as that would wind Wasps up surely?

    Court Match Thread

    If KPMG provided a valuation for the lease extension and that was matched, is that not the end of the argument? I'm not sure what else the guidelines that OSB58 would include about the correct process for disposal of land.

    Court Match Thread

    If I went to the council and offered them some money to buy some land, it would be offered as commercial in confidence from my part so value should be private. Do the council have to go out and put the land up for auction with my offer as a minimum bid? Or can they get a valuation and make an...

    Court Match Thread

    I would have expected that, but I am pretty ignorant of the whole process... Could this be surrounding the changes possibly? Is the claim that SISU lodged a vague JR then built a case over 2-3 years?

    Court Match Thread

    What outcome will folk realistically be hoping for from today? I really don't know win or lose what it means for Cov... I can't make my mind up which would help SISU move on quicker... I suppose I'd prefer the council not to get dumped with a huge bill, but in terms of looking at the best...

    Court Match Thread

    I wonder if they would prefer to wrap this up based upon a technical error which is harder to dispute than a subjective debate based on differing valuations? Seems to be labouring the point though...

    Lincoln-based Sky Blues?

    Mill Road and Burton Road, yeah, I was never a fan of the plough boy. The Struggs is a great pub and in the Bail itself the Prince of Wales was decent when I left, although could be very up and down. If you like music, on a Friday, the Jolly Brewer was always half decent too. I used to watch...

    Lincoln-based Sky Blues?

    I lived around Bailgate, decent area with a few decent pubs. Let me know how you find the Christmas market in December :) I had to give up my season ticket when I moved as I worked weekends, I tried to get to the close away games though. The chap who runs Lincoln City drinks around that way...

    7 Scholars sign new terms.

    I'm feeling strange... I think it might be real pre-season confidence, I've never experienced it before. Either that or its wind... Positive new players on sensible contracts and keeping hold of decent academy prospects, with a chance to properly introduce them to the first team... Can't wait...

    The unasked question

    I must admit I thought that the players might need some time to gel... With our usual Jan/summer turn over of players though it isn't necessarily something new. What is refreshing is that we have bought players in early on in anticipation for replacing those that might leave. I've also got a...

    ricoh grows in value......according to wasps

    This alone certainly helps them with one of the bond covenants, which is something to do with total debt not being something like 1.6 ratio of the combined ACL valuation + League share. They still need to achieve the profit (before tax and interest etc) of a ratio above finance costs (at least...

    ricoh grows in value......according to wasps

    Wasps and CCC would always argue that any increased valuation after the sale would be due to after sale investment and management, which is all subjective and therefore I would have thought be pretty useless. I wonder if they will ask if a professional valuation was carried out before the...

    Haha! Doh... I doubt I'll be able to peel the "Kyle" letters off my shirt now...

    Academy to stay at Higgs

    That's what I am getting at, certainty does not appear to be there, but sensible multi year contracts are being awarded. Mark Robins must have a very compelling pitch to get new players to sign, which I commend him for.

    Transfer Rumour Former player in talks with us! - Courtney Baker Richardson

    I don't usually look at these threads as I get over excited about who might join and subsequently just as disappointed by the outcome... But it is Friday, it is slow and I have looked... My God I hope it is a great signing!!

    Academy to stay at Higgs

    Agreed OSB58, in terms of recruitment it must go against the club (in terms of being an attractive place to play) that the future beyond this season is uncertain. I really think it could be a huge dampener towards the business end of the season if we are in the hunt for promotion but under a...

    Academy to stay at Higgs

    Great news for the academy in the short term - hopefully something is happening to resolve the whole accommodation issue for 18/19. I'd rather not base all hope on Wasps struggling and if after Christmas we are in the same position I'd be getting worried. However it is good news in the short...
