    Any idea what Mowbray has been saying?

    Vincelot joins Bradford

    That's what the CT are saying having spoken to Mowbray. Purely a footballing decision. Good money for a player with only 1 year left on his contract. If its Mowbrays decision as he wants to use the money elsewhere I don't have a problem with it. If its not then its a very different story.

    Season Ticket Purchasing Thread Eleventy Billion

    Odd decision. Although with the option of finance this year and the match packages will it make a huge difference? Sure we'll get half season tickets so anyone who suddenly decides they want one can just get a match package and half season ticket.

    Which is the worst sport to watch as a spectator?

    Personally its any motor sport and rugby. I don't understand why anyone would go to F1, you just see the cars flash past every couple of minutes!

    (Former) Academy Kit Man Charged with Sex Offences!!

    Is a bit odd looking back on those articles that CCC barely get a mention yet in the article yesterday CCFC are referred to several times. You hope that it isn't a deliberate thing but after last time, when we had Simon on here assuring us nothing was going on only for it to come out in court...

    First team player sold?

    The budget was for the club to be self sufficient however that turned out not to be the case. The owners put in a short term loan and Maddison was sold to cover that. Some of the loan was paid back, some of it was left in the club as a sort of rolling credit facility.

    Have I missed an academy update?

    Lets assume thats the plan. What is the benefit? At the moment the club put in £500K and get a grant for the same. So they get a £1m academy for £500K. The players that have been sold in recent years have bought in more than the £500K being put in. Its probably the only part of the club making...

    The Balance / When Will You Be Concerned....

    Did you actually read what Mowbray said or just go with the alarmist CT conclusions? What he actually said is there's two players in training now who are likely to be singing shortly and he's looking to bring another five or six in but might, if those players are expensive, have to let one or...

    Wolves bought for 45 million

    It was tied to the capacity of Maine Road. Basically along the lines that Man City only benefitted if more people turned up than they could fit in before. Before it was renegotiated weren't they paying a certain amount per ticket sold over 36K?

    Local Government Ombudsman - Protest Idea

    We went all through this a few months back if someone can dig out the thread. KMPG had something like 7 serious bids. The known bidders were Manhattan, Sharpiro and SISU. All three met with the council. Public statements were made deriding Manhatten and Sharprio, bizarrely the statements...

    Steve Bruce...WTF....

    Their chairman is a bit of a nutter, could be a falling out.

    Have I missed an academy update?

    CSF were involved in the last audit and know exactly what facilities the club use. The framework for the EPPP with all the requirements in is also freely available online. Even if we can't continue with all of the facilities we have now CSF can just say you currently have this, you can now have...

    Have I missed an academy update?

    I keep reiterating it because its an incredibly easy thing to get done. The trust have been told, just type up a press release, get CSF and Wasps to confirm it is accurate, open letter in the CT and it can be crossed off the list and we move on to the next obstacle Anderson puts in the way. If...

    Local Government Ombudsman - Protest Idea

    That's one of the saddest things in this whole mess.

    Local Government Ombudsman - Protest Idea

    If you go further back there were also conditions when Higgs was first built as municipal land was used. Something about the facilities having to remain available to the community. Wasps plans will mean a reduction in both the facilities available and the hours they are available for. There...

    Have I missed an academy update?

    At least then everyone would know exactly what was needed in addition to Higgs. CSF & Wasps have told the trust, why is so difficult for them to tell CA?

    Why can't we

    Win win as far as I can see. There was also talk of Wasps buying the ST land next to Higgs, that all went very quiet.
