Reads to me like someone at the council has applied some pressure and said they will make life difficult if CCFC are associated with the project. Certainly wouldn't be the first time that has happened and fits in with the pattern of the council trying to block any move as soon as it was known...

You also have to factor in that they borrowed money to make the first few interest payments on the bonds so on top of turning round that loss they also need to find the money to make the interest payments. That's a hell of a lot of extra business to bring in when we were repeatedly told that...

Its simple for me. Everything SISU did, as bad as they have been, could be undone with new owners up until the point Wasps turned up. The sale of ACL to Wasps massively decreased the chance of us getting new owners anytime soon and massively decreased the chance of us being a sustainable club...

Overall would have to say we don't look too good this year when in the past we have been pretty comparable to other clubs. Only 6 clubs have their cheapest ST at the same price or higher than us. Although another 10 are within £30. 11 clubs most expensive ST is cheaper than ours. Our cheapest...

Suspect we are well past that point. More likely a 'get what you can' situation now. However while the club runs at break even there's no incentive for her to sell without some sort of return.

It could but it won't. When anything like this is discussed you always get the same response of people saying it happens everywhere there's nothing you can do about it. Without the will to change things nothing will happen.

I can't. Why 2pm on a Sunday if its not a TV game, which I assume it isn't as it says could be altered if its selected for TV.

7 years rings a bell which is obviously much better than year to year but it would be nice to get something long term tied up.

Next step will be to get the restriction Higgs put in place removed so a long term deal to stay there can be agreed.

Hard to tell, there's only one here at work and he seems to have taken it as they don't want to be at Higgs and have somewhere better lined up.

Didn't they borrow enough in the bonds to cover the interest payments? So unless they've been really stupid and spent that you'd assume they can make the payment. Past that though its hard not to see something isn't right. They've got rid of people at ACL and not replaced them, using Fishers...

Great news. As for the pool surely that now doesn't need to go where the indoor pitch is or a new indoor pitch can be built where Wasps were planning to go. Pool plans will surely need to be changed anyway as they previously included facilities linked to rugby which won't now be needed - not...

Is he skint? Would have thought he'd have earned enough not to need to do things like this.

Not to pick on Astute but this highlights the problem all parties have in getting economic policy over to the masses. Even in sound bite form people struggle so when you drill down into the detail you've already lost the interest of most voters.

Best thing to do with VAT is overhaul the essentials list which is a complete mess. Anything that is genuinely an essential zero rate. Nobody can really argue against paying VAT on non-essentials As by definition they are things you don’t have to have.

In the absence of the SCG someone needs to email that new chap (the one that isn’t Fisher). If you buy multiple tickets on the gate they should be together, can’t see that being too hard to sort out.

Just having breakfast in Stockholm. Can see into the arena from the hotel restaurant. The first of two Sens v Avs games tonight - can’t wait.

Haven’t Louis CK and Segal both been accused in the past? Louis CK’s manager handles a lot of big names in US comedy and it looks like he’s been very active in covering this up over the years, be interesting to see how his other clients respond. Jeremy Piven posted this and he has a point...

I can't see past 5-0 at the moment. England don't seem in great form and leaving Stokes out has removed any chance of being competitive. The injuries seem to be piling up as well.

Stewards asking fans to sit in the right seats (looks like they might have been sat in a block that wasn't open as nobody else seems to be sat there on the video, maybe you just can't see them). Fans won't move to where their tickets are so others start having a go at the stewards. Simple tip...
