    Grab a beer or a cup of tea, it’s CCFC!!

    What a load of drivel, how does any of that help anything? Wasn't a surprise to reach the end and see the author is Johnson. Doubt you will find anyone who believes they should keep going down that route. Equally does anyone really believe there is anything that will persuade them to suddenly...

    Is this whole thing a Haskell Mk2?

    Look at the way the city responded to things like the JPT win and the play offs. Even at that level it was a bigger deal than anything else in recent times.

    New Keeper

    Is Burge not out with concussion rather than the flu? If its just for one game why not put Addai in. If he's not up to that then he shouldn't be our keeper on the bench. Some of the posts from Brum fans about Stockdale aren't very complimentary. Genuine or has he upset them somehow? Things like...

    Emiliano Sala (Cardiff Player) on board missing plane

    Was similar with the Leicester chap, everyone else was a bit of an afterthought.

    The reality is things like fines are part of the rules of competition but even then it doesn't follow that should someone decide to challenge them in court they would hold up. Its just nobody has ever bothered to challenge them as its not worth the hassle. They can push for law changes but they...

    Is this whole thing a Haskell Mk2?

    Remember when Pompey queried how poor the fit and proper persons test was, and remember at one point they were 'owned' by someone who quite possibly didn't exist, the authorities turned round and said it was basically a box ticking exercise as they couldn't do anything that was open to a legal...

    You keep saying the EDL should do more but what do you expect them to do? You're confusing running a business in a legal manner with running a football club in a manner which the fans approve of. SISU, or whatever name you want to use, are a prime example here. They have not broken any laws...

    Sean lock appearing at the Rialto

    He was on the last few series of Shooting Stars if you watched that. Pretty funny bloke, saw him in London a few years back and would definitely recommend.

    16 year old murdered in Wood End

    Are these all people involved with drugs doing each other in or random innocent people?

    Surprising new development

    No I'm talking about when there was a plan for a new trust in 2012 as the existing trust was ineffective and dormant. That became the relaunch of the existing trust with everyone having to sign up again and pay their membership. The change in constitution came later, possibly to tie in with them...

    AEG, they got as far as meeting with the council. Reckon by their track record they would probably have done a better job of running it than the council, Higgs or Wasps. Stadiums | AEG Worldwide Arenas | AEG Worldwide Sports | AEG Worldwide Touring | AEG Worldwide

    Surprising new development

    So you don't have an answer to the question. The old trust had to all intents and purposes ceased to exist - dormant for years, hence the need for a new trust. The current trust has recently received criticism regarding its inaction on current issues and as a defence CJ stated the Trust saved...

    Surprising new development

    Why? The old trust was dormant, had been for around two years. It's the equivalent of Fisher coming on CWR and telling us we should all be thanking SISU for winning the FA Cup.

    We're really scraping the barrel if the SCG is being included as a positive :emoji_smiley:

    Surprising new development

    The only time I can recall a trust raising money for the academy was before the currently trust. It was back when we had the old version with the likes of Natalie Cox and Kev Monks. The one that got killed off for being ineffective and replaced with the current one. Although in the end didn't...

    Is this whole thing a Haskell Mk2?

    That's the problem. Same as if you made a rule saying clubs can't get involved in legal action. How would that work in practice? We might not agree with it but SISU have the right legally to pursue action. And who decides what action is OK or would all legal action be ruled out? If we sold a...

    Is this whole thing a Haskell Mk2?

    That's the big problem. SISU haven't broken any laws. Not sure you can fail someone's fit and proper test on the basis they won't chuck millions in that the club doesn't have to try and get promoted. You'd need to put specific rules in place around ownership and have the golden share return to...

    I didn't really follow past that point as I was just listening in on a conversation between lawyers and it started going over my head. The general gist seemed to be that after they have thoroughly exhausted the judicial review process they can start a private case against whoever they choose...
