    Pay on the gate at walsall?

    Such thing have to be agreed with Police and effect the categorisation of the game and therefore police and stewarding requirements as well as staffing requirements in ticket office etc. If this were to effect policing requirements could cost WFC 10's of thousands to do so at such short notice.

    Where we're at

    The analogy isn't quite right though is it? It's more like you owning the lease to a shop and then you not your neighbour running the business from it. In that case it may be said that they are link because the one exists to facilitate the business of the other. The same applies to the Virgin...

    Club Statement on remaining games

    Oh dear. Not decided yet then. They want ACL to agree a short term lease so it strengthens the claim that CCFCH isn't liable for the existing one. If. I was ACL I wouldn't fall for this and just say you don't need one you have an existing lease and if you don't agree you have 14days anyway. SISU...

    tickets for walsall

    With these sort of fixtures it is often to do with policing and controlling costs for this particularly as we are a small club and manage costs very carefully to balance the books. Policing requirements for a game are worked out on a points system with all sorts of factors taken into account...

    tickets for walsall

    Best of luck with that. They will only want to go on their terms and will fight tooth and nail against anything else. Hope it all works out OK.

    tickets for walsall

    No, we never get that! Possible about 4000, we were kinda banking on you actually selling some but Cov seem to be doing their best to screw that up. May be it's all part of the plan to compete next season ( assuming there is one) by denying us revenue. Damn those pesky hedge fund underhand...

    tickets for walsall

    I was thinking for those who have already ordered but can't collect. Must admit seems a bit shabby they're not giving you more and clearer info on tickets already purchased.

    tickets for walsall

    I know we sometimes send uncollected tickets to the home team ticket office for collection, usually travelling with the team; however that's usually a handful. I can't see our lot being happy at having 1000 cover fans queuing to collect tickets. Might be possible for those that can't be hand...

    tickets for walsall

    Don't worry she wasn't annoyed. That's the normal attitude of our ticket office staff. They are far to busy to be worrying about customers who want tickets.

    Potentially 4 interested parties

    Not quite. A Hedge Fund as the name suggests looks for investment opportunities where they can make a profit regardless of which way the market goes. E.G whether a share price goes up or down, whether a company succeeds or fails. They may set out looking to drive in one direction but if it's...

    The Football League Golden Share

    Hope so, and that they haven't done something silly in separating the two in their attempt to separate the debt as I think their is the potential for fines and/or 3 points deduction for each unregistered player. Might take them longer than Tuesday to sort this lot out. If they haven't done...

    The Football League Golden Share

    No expert on such matters but posted a link below about third party ownership of registrations. My understanding was that third party ownership of registrations had been outlawed and that under completely different circumstances West Ham had been done for this. So, if your golden share is...

    ACL on CWR right now

    If you put something with value together with something that looses money do you make the lose making operation more attractive or do you make the thing of value less attractive when trying to sell to re-coupe investment/make a return? If your primary concern is bringing in new investment to...

    just on sky sports

    Did post last night saying it was very unlikely. It would be hugely politically difficult for WFC to enter such a deal with your club even though the money would be useful ( if we got it of course ;) ) due to issue our own fans have around rent with our owner. The CEO at WFC is a really...

    No more games at the Ricoh

    No worries, hope things go well for you guys in the end (not at our expense in the league of course;) ). I know we all have a bit of banter but us fans have to stick together because let's face it no-one else in this crazy world of football cares about us any more. Goodnight, will be watching...

    No more games at the Ricoh

    Don't really want to get drawn into your issues particularly as I'm no expert on your circumstances, but have done quite a lot of reading on it as have a lot of a section of our fans who are quite knowledgeable on such things due to our own battles over the years and most I've spoken to see SISU...

    No more games at the Ricoh

    Yep, I'd have to double check the exact figure. £465k if I remember right. The club does get revenue from all activities on there apart from rent from telephone masts that are there which goes to the pension fund. Feel sorry for you guy, it's always the fans that come out on the short end of...

    No more games at the Ricoh

    Saddlers fan in peace. Very unlikely to be Walsall for you guys. Our chairman/owner and other club officials have been very vocal over a number of years about responsible financial management of clubs. We do not own our ground it is owned by the club owners pension fund and charges the club...
