He's not saying it should be free, he is saying that they still pay over £200K in fees every year. There is perception they don't pay anything, which is simply not true. Anyway, getting me woolies on ready for the off.

Yes, they do, but it's best not to mention it as it goes against the "SISU don't pay any money are are taking food out of the orphans' mouths" attitude we get on here.

Bankrupt the charadee? No chance! They have assets of over £20M And it's beyond me that some people support ACL and the Council over the team they supposedly support.

Nice idea. Unfortunately there would have to be a full council meeting every time we wanted to make a substitution. You would also find that our goalkeeper would be made redundant half way through the match - at the same time as appointing three other managers.

True. Like a puff of smoke.

Agree, Oakey. I would rather it be off as there would certainly be more there after our guaranteed victory in the JPT final at Wembley.

Is that the arena which would almost certainly lose it's sponsorship if the football club were kicked out? The arena which would be best known for plumbing and carp exhibitions? This just in from Coun. Mutton "Crikey".

Luckily he's got a back-up Montego.

Oh, they won't be happy. I used the "shore up" phrase yesterday and was pulled up about it.

As someone put on another thread from a leaked CCC document " “The CCFC rent is currently critical to ACL's viability. However, if ACL enforce payment of arrears and rent in full now, this is likely to result in the liquidation of CCFC.“ I'm sure there are other income streams, MMM, but people...

LOL! Was Keane's purchase good for CCFC or not? A simple yes or no will suffice.

Do you say the same of everyone who disagrees with you? Obviously, I disagree with most people on here, particularly those who want ACL to "win" or would "rather see City liquidated than ACL 'lose'" or those who think we should get rid of SISU and "just get some new owners", etc. However, I...

We got ours this morning over the phone and the ticket office said to my Dad that at that time around 5K had been sold.

Please post that on the Midlands today thread, so those who reckon ACL will have no problem surviving without CCFC will see it's not that clear cut.

I tell you what then. If it's so easy, why not organise a few big concerts, exhibitions and Rugby Internationals for ACL and then I will say "you were right, I was wrong". Oh, while you're at it you can install a new sports team with the Ricoh as its home as Dongo said there are loads of...

Tendering for events is not the same as having a guaranteed twenty plus matches a season. You can't just "get" some Rugby matches. Get real is certainly the key phrase.

The central issue is CCFC pay too much rent and always have. ACL have now been propped up with taxpayers money and say they can survive without the club. Some say that's a piece of piss and some (like me) think they are bluffing. You talk of reasoned argument and then end your post with...

Seems attitudes were a little different when the Council "gifted" ACL a six month rent free period. Seems to only work one way with the Council.

Actually, BRM, I think you'll find it's a Spectacular not just a show...

A profit of £28K!? :facepalm:
