    Whose intent? When we went through the sales process that resulted in SISU taking over CCC refused to even consider selling their half to the club resulting in at least two other potential buyers walking away. CCFC did indeed sell their half to Higgs but the price for them to buy it back was...

    Armstrong spent?

    The other concern is now he's not scoring nobody is. You hope that when your top striker is getting shut down that creates more opportunity for others but that doesn't' seem to have happened.

    So your opinion is that CCFC shouldn't have been given the opportunity to purchase at the same price and terms under which Wasps purchased? Well that all depends on how a new stadium is financed doesn't it. For example with the Ricoh the council only put in £10m, that would make a purchase on...

    Is Maddison a joker?

    There's a fine line between making it or not making it. You can have the skill but if you don't put the work in you'll be overtaken by others. He seems to have made the mistake of thinking he's made it already and can just sit back now and watch the money roll in. We know he's got the talent he...

    Moving back from free kick to clear the wall, legal?

    Can't be legal. Where would you draw the line, what if they wanted to move to the left or the right to get a better angle?

    Swindon Match Thread

    Well at least we didn't lose I suppose. We really need back to back wins in the next 2 games now before we enter a run of games against promotion chasing sides.

    Clive also thought they'd scored! Hopefully that'll be the warning that wakes us up a bit.

    Looks like no second half goals so a 2-0 win. Great result.

    Thought we offloaded Ramage for a left back?

    Think Jones is more one for the future, maybe next season if he's as good as some are saying. Hopefully a left back will come in this week. If not Mowbray might be tempted to recall Haynes.

    England cricket

    Think our start contributed to the extras. The pressure was on the bowlers and they lost their discipline.

    But the point is the club was properly marketed and any interested party was able to bid on the same basis. The fact that some of the interested parties dropped out as they couldn't work with CCC is nothing at all to do with the sales process. Compare that to the sale of ACL. That was done in...

    Coventry Evening Telegraph.

    The very simple fact is you can't possibly know who would or wouldn't have been interested as it wasn't marketed - that's the whole point! For example who knew Lloyds were interested in purchasing the NEC before it was properly marketed. You deride people for saying we were the only show in...

    Coventry Evening Telegraph.

    The point being made is that there should have been a proper sales process from ACL. You say its the same as when SISU purchased CCFC however CCFC went through exactly the process it is being suggested CCC should have. Hence why KMPG came in - they were the experts and ensured the club was...

    Not really. When the club was sold KMPG were bought in to market the club to the maximum number of potential bidders. If you recall SISU weren't the only interested party.
