Why would anyone want to buy CCFC over any other football club in the country. What do you perceive to be our selling points?

And its not the football club litigating so I'm not sure how buying it would stop anything.

Do you seriously think anyone would be interested? I can't imagine anyone other than a fan considering it.

When did CSF takeover Higgs, wasn't too long ago was it? Before that wouldn't it have been for Higgs to discuss any redevelopment with Wasps. CSF were just managing the facility.

So long as mine turns up by matchday that'll do for me.

I struggle to get a decent mobile internet connection in there let alone WiFi. Would be nice if it means we can get decent connectivity. Suspect at least part of the payment is in services provided, similar to the deal with had with StatSport.

It could indeed. In which case I would hope Breed will be passing the evidence, emails, minutes etc, to the CT for them to publish and show his claims are correct. Should that not be the case then how do we know he is not just saying this as it suits his needs? Does seem a little strange that he...

Since Anderson has come in I haven't seen him state we are moving to a new stadium. In fact he came in and stated that staying at the Ricoh long term was an option and that's why talks started. Same with the academy.

Because we were expecting to stay at Sixfields. Would indicate that, once the Wasps deal was agreed, there was a desire by Wasps to ensure we were back at the Ricoh before they moved in as it would be better PR for them.

It increasingly looks like they don't want us around but also don't want to state that as it would be bad PR. When they first came in there was lots of talk of being good landlords as they had been in our position but there actions to date indicate otherwise. Since they've come in they've...

No, the pitch was completely replaced and it wasn't cheap. The dispute over maintenance was not actually doing the work, Higgs wanted the club to pay to replace all the maintenance equipment, the club said it was for Higgs to supply.

Who is going to buy the club? Unless you are a fan it would be the last club in the country you'd buy. You either stay in a Wasps branded ground with minimal income or you have to stump up and pay for a new stadium. Why on earth would you want to be owned by someone who would quite happily move...

Did wonder that. Haven't had time to look at it closely but the timelines on when they supposedly started talking to Wasps and when Fisher was publically stating we were leaving don't match do they? Even as far back as when we returned to Higgs under Waggott he was talking about it being long term.

Unbelievable, already trying to justify Wasps hiking our rent up.

So what do you think will happen if Wasps continue to not speak to the club about extending the current deal?

We're in a slightly different situation this time. Wasps won't talk to us regarding extending our Ricoh deal and are academy facility is being removed. Doesn't leave us with a lot of options does it? Should he have refused to answer?

Started writing a reply saying that even our council aren't going to fall for some of that. Then I remember who we are dealing with and changed my mind! How does that work then, you have to accept this planning application because if you don't another one we haven't even submitted and don't...

KMPG ran us through an administration process in all but name. SISU were the only option left when it became clear CCC wouldn't sell the ground to the club. SISU said they weren't interested if the club had gone into formal administration. Who do you think was going to take their place if that...

I think there is probably a very good reason the changes at Higgs have been separated into two different projects and will form two different applications. Any mention of the pool now, and the loss of facilities it will bring, can be dismissed as nothing has even been submitted for planning. It...

Yep, roughly £400K a year pre-Sixfields, I was told 'significantly more' since the return. There was also some bizarre things like us being responsible for pitch maintenance but getting nothing when the pitch was hired out to others. But at its most basic we've paid more in rent to date than...
