    Unusual grounds

    Obviously never happened as they had no money but Pompey came up with this ridiculous idea to build a new stadium actually in the harbour.

    Time for a trust statement

    So they couldn't pay back a loan but could afford £1.3m a year in rent?

    If we're posting pictures of our dogs this could be the best thread we've ever had on here!

    What type of bars do you frequent Grendel?

    Time for a trust statement

    The best thing they could have done at that point is utilised the low cost lending they accessed, or rather claimed to have accessed before it became clear it was from council reserves, and lent the club the money to buy back HR. The council could have taken ownership as security and charged us...

    Euro 2016 big thread

    Thought they were coming back out for a third half for a minute. Didn't realise I'd accidentally switched to ITV + 1 :D

    Euro 2016 big thread

    If other teams pick up on that they'll have to bring in a new rule for time wasting. No idea how you'd word it but if they don't stamp that out it will get worse and worse. You'll end up with someone taking the ball to the corner with his teammates around him just standing there for 10 minutes!

    Simon Gilbert Announcement

    He's got a point there. A lot of local papers now have very small teams on low wages. They don't have the time or resources to really dig into things. Obviously there's the odd exception but the standard of local paper journalism does seem to be on the decline. Think the CT is actually one of...

    Good stuff. Have they responded and given the information needed?

    Hope For Sky Blues Academy

    That's part of the reason I'd like it on the table what CSF and Wasps can offer. Then everyone knows where they are. Also need to sort out the matter with the pool. Don't want to get all this sorted and then 12 months later it all starts again when they build that.

    You could always mail Tim Fisher and ask him, he used to take his dog into work at the Ricoh!

    Bit of a long shot, but...........

    For a country that is supposedly full of dog lovers you'll find a lot of places don't allow dogs. Go to mainland Europe and there are far fewer restrictions. Can't think of any chain places who will let you in, unless they have outside seating. Best bet is generally pubs or non-chain cafes /...

    Unusual grounds

    That looks fantastic. Just googled it and it says all the facilities are in a huge concourse located under the pitch.

    Hope For Sky Blues Academy

    The issues are likely to be around primacy and if a single site is required. Most academies have some flexibility in terms of primacy as many either don't own the facilities or make them available for others use. The EPPP actually states the academy needs exclusive use but that has never been...

    Hope For Sky Blues Academy

    Not suggesting that at all. Just concerned that the timing is poor to be asking the FA to be flexible as if they want less academies they will be looking for reasons to remove status and are therefore less likely to be flexible. Nothing can be done about that though. Exactly, that is why I...

    Hope For Sky Blues Academy

    Thats a huge concern for me. To be going to the FA asking them to be flexible at a time when they are looking to reduce the number of academies is not the best timing to say the least. Would be good if, while CCFC are awaiting their response from the FA, the trust could also obtain details from...

    Time for a trust statement

    While the companies may no longer exist CCFC still does, just about at least. People are asserting that the issue lies solely with SISU and evidencing that by listing those that won't work with them. Problem is when you scratch the surface these organisations all seem to trace back to CCC. If...
