If you truly believe that's acceptable then it's no wonder the worlds shit and being milked by greedy twats

But the way you worded it gives the impression you and others think Fisher shouldn't be held AS accountable as the council because he's private sector. ChiefDave pretty much says as such. I do not believe that should be the case - each should be as accountable as the other for their actions...

I was just going to suggest could anyone imagine the PL reaction if someone came in and said they were going to do an NFL style franchise system to rebuild the league and give the league committee more power. But it's not a system I want to see. It effectively turns clubs into cash cows for...

TF is a bullshitting twat in a position of authority and power who has an obligation and responsibility not to lie and mislead. He is a custodian and representative of the club and therefore should be held accountable as such. Councillors are bullshitting twats in a position of authority and...

Isn't this just a year longer than the one he was on previously? Great to get long term deals for players, but seems a bit weird for one extra year with 2 years left on the current one. Maybe there was some contract clause we wanted to get rid of?

It would get some coverage definitely. I'd have three though - one outside the council house, one outside the Ricoh and one outside SISU offices.

From a legal perspective there is nothing that can be used against the council(lors) in those statements and the documents are filled with caveats and proviso's. If you want to use those councillor quotes as enforceable evidence, then those made by TF about the stadium also have to be...

As I've said I want to see that 4 year thing questioned and torn apart. I just can't believe they even used it in the first place as it wasn't necessary, but now they have it needs severe questioning as all it does it make you suspicious.

This is only guessing, but I guess they mentioned them to appease the football/rugby fans in a poorly worded attempted to reassure them that the clubs mattered to the city and the council. If they hadn't mentioned them there'd have been people saying "why aren't they talking about the...

That was within CCC boundaries, but it may have been possible land had been found in neighbouring boroughs. It was TF who said they'd got a site ready to purchase and plans for the stadium design agreed. That is were the council could, rightly or wrongly, put forward an argument that the sale...

I'm not saying it shouldn't be taken seriously at all, just that it cannot be taken as legally enforceable or an obligation. It's shit PR for the council and Ann Lucas certainly. Yes, they've all been bullshitting and undertaking a propaganda war since the sale, but there's nothing there from...

Because at the time CCFC's director and chairman was saying the club were close to building their own new stadium, and thus the future of CCFC and it's ability to continue playing could be said to be secure in the long term when the deal was done. The bigger issue was the rugby club, as it...

Seems like there's a lot of huff and puff about statements made by councillors etc about safeguards for the club(s), but quotes like that from individuals are not enforceable just as when MP's say daft shit it can't be taken as being the policy of their party. Otherwise CCFC could sue Tim Fisher...

That would be a better way forward I reckon. I think it's likely to become more amenable to Wasps over time if their finances are deteriorating as has been speculated, but in that scenario SISU are much less likely to go for that deal because they'll see another chance to financially distress...

Given the apparently tragic circumstances of his death maybe, but I think he's got perfect funeral entrance and exit music in Breathe and Firestarter. I remember Out of Space being on one of my first Now cassettes and my sister thought #pay close attention# was #hey close the kitchen# so I did...

With this 6 miles business, which apparently only Fisher and Boddy have mentioned but no-one seems to be able to find in the actual EFL rules. So it must have just been a verbal thing between EFL and Fisher. If not, why hasn't Fisher just produced the paperwork proving it has to be within 6...

Think it's most likely to be another close scrappy low-scoring game, but at home I'm confident of a win. Quite happy to keep the team unchanged, but bringing Thomas back in wouldn't be a bad option.

I think that if it got to the start of the season they'd play that season with 44 league games (i.e. no-one plays us) instead of 46 and then reduce the number of clubs relegated at the end of that season by one for the following season. Tomorrow is deadline for an update and I can't see them...

I would describe them as big, but not huge. As they are I reckon they'd be on a par with the middle-lower teams in the Prem BUT if they were in the Prem and had access to that cash they could definitely be top 6. Probably attract a big investor too which could push them into huge club territory.
