    Latest CCFC letter on planning application - Planning Meeting

    But Wasps have 16 other sites that they have chosen to keep confidential so that nobody else can make use of them. Would you not think if there was an issue with Higgs they would make use of one of them. Of course that might all be PR and it was going to be Higgs all along :jawdrop:

    Latest CCFC letter on planning application - Planning Meeting

    The same argument could be made then. The club would just come in and say the academy was refused a renewal to allow Wasps to move in and cite the same issues.

    Fabian Robert fails to earn a contract

    The situation can't be as desperate as some seem to think if Mowbray is happy not to take players like this and wait for a better option. Or maybe he already has a better option with Reid.

    Latest CCFC letter on planning application - Planning Meeting

    I don't think it will get refused either but I can't see how you can bypass objections just by going we might not let the current tenants stay anyway.

    Latest CCFC letter on planning application - Planning Meeting

    Not sure how its really relevant to Wasps planning application but you've got that slightly wrong: 1) It was Higgs who kicked up about the insurance. The company that was in administration and subsequently liquidated couldn't maintain an agreement for the academy to train at Higgs, how would...

    That's a separate issue really. And if Wasps get refused planning permission do you not think CSF might be keen for the academy to stay?

    CCFC invited to talk

    But as a football person Venus might be better placed to talk about the academy. Depends what they are going to focus on.

    Formal Planning Objection from CCFC

    Its not SISU that wrote to CSF, its CCFC. You say nobody wants to deal with SISU, I presume you mean the club, yet we have signed deals with Nike / Just Sports and Ticketmaster - was any legal action needed there?

    Formal Planning Objection from CCFC

    They weren't gifted it at all. They had put millions into the project and were promised a 50% share of the freehold when CCC took over. CCC backtracked on that at the last minute and changed it to 50% of ACL. Of course ACL then had to pay over £20m to CCC for the lease.

    Is that how it works or do local councils get a set amount per child?

    South American? Or more likely Australian, what's the standard of their league like these days?

    Formal Planning Objection from CCFC

    No, and nobody has suggested you should. Why you should be upset about is a facility purpose built for the club, that only got planning permission as our academy was to be located there, that was on formally public land that there was a commitment to keep in community use is now being handed...

    Formal Planning Objection from CCFC

    Exactly. Anderson was talking to CSF, they stopped responding and ignored communications and then the Wasps new broke. At that point, after it had been stated Wasps and CCFC couldn't coexist at Higgs, Anderson asked for details of what would still be available in writing. Its hardly unreasonable...

    Formal Planning Objection from CCFC

    The only thing its clouded by is the fact that I want what is best for my football club over a local council and London rugby club. You one sided take on things is a prime example of what I was talking about.
