sub lease at a guess.

I doubt Sharp is an idiot so if one of the options under consideration is CCFC playing there he will be aware of the pitch requirements. SISU don't need to leave for them not to be involved at least technically. The precise way he's phrased it, several times now, makes me think it is deliberate.

not if CRFC have 51% of the prop co

Exactly, set up a joint venture prop co owned by Otium and CRFC. He's not dealing with SISU then.

Think you can read it either way you want. If it was a non-starter it would be a short statement saying Fisher is full of BS and there's no chance of it happening. What he actually says is that a groundshare with CCFC is one of the options under consideration but there are, quite rightly...

You would have thought so. What use is we won't go to mediation unless you agree to our terms before we start!

Yep, back in September. Said if SISU paid the council £325 it could help.

CCC playing right into SISU's hands.

Its great how he lifts stories from here and the Observer and then claims them as exclusives!

How was CCC refusing to even consider CCFC owning a stake in the stadium prior to SISU coming in a consequence of stunts pulled by SISU?

The original condition had to be removed as it forbid all football, not that the condition was ever enforced. If the condition was still in place Cov Utd couldn't play there. It was when the condition was being altered that CCC wanted to add a clause to prevent professional football. When that...

Come on, you have to be blind not to see the council fall over themselves to assist Wasps and do the very minimum they can legally get away with when it comes to us.

That's not a planning issue. That's a restriction the council tried, and failed, to have added to the BPA lease when ownership was transferred recently to Jon Sharp / CRFC.

They've had to take out an overdraft and had a loan put in by the owner which doesn't sound like they're sat on a huge pile of money.

Houses is further down isn't it, past the primary school on land that comes under WDC.

No they purchased both the council and Higgs share for £2.77m each. They then extended the lease for £1m. So a total of £6.54m. But we're not talking about how much they paid we're talking about the debt. At the point Wasps took over ACL the debt was £14.4m of which they council paid back...

Really? How much was owed to the council at the point Wasps took over compared to how much Wasps owe on the bond issue?

Portsmouth used to train in the local park, they've now moved to the local Roko. Who cares where it is as long as its the right standard. If this does happen surely its a win all round. At minimum an improvement in the current facilities there, at best in the long term you could see additional...

If the academy is moving in the pitches will be looked after by CCFC and the required improvements made. They're not just going to turn up one morning and hope for the best. Potentially there's room at Finham to move the whole thing there down the line if future owners want to put a bit of...
