    Hope you're happy, Torchy, Grenduffy, etc

    1) if CCC lose shouldn't you be angry with them? 2) nobody seemed that concerned about the taxpayer losing millions when ACL was sold to Wasps.

    We've paid a fee? That's it - SISU out.

    What do CCC actually own? We could end up owning the freehold of the Ricoh, bet SISU would be taking a close look at the lease if that happened! What else do they own besides the council offices?

    Not point the finger at anyone in particular but it does make me chuckle how when there was talk of SISU buying ACL it was all about the taxpayer being ripped off and the poor children. Then Wasps came along and that all went out the window and everyone was quite happy with it. Now SISU have a...

    If SISU won compensation...

    They would take their money back and bugger off at a guess. Getting ahead of ourselves here but could non-financial compensation be a possible ruling? For example if SISU argue they now need to fund a new stadium due to the actions of CCC rather than the judge awarding them say £60m to cover the...

    The council should have insurance to cover a payout like this. If not and a big compensation claim is successful they will most likely have to sell off an asset as Birmingham did with the NEC.

    On the bright said them getting their money back via compensation is most likely to be the last we see of them.

    Not sure who that would benefit most, SISU or CCC, but if its covering a lot of the same ground it would make sense and would hopefully mean the whole thing is over quicker. The other option would be hearing the appeal first and if SISU fail starting another JR from scratch which as we know...

    Advertising and sponsorship as well. They could also claim being forced to move has had a detrimental effect so even though they are now back at the Ricoh they are still losing money.

    For cup games it will be per season ticket I would have though so as long as the adult one is in your name I can't see it being a problem.

    The judge could have dragged it out a bit longer. We'll have to go back to moaning about not signing Messi now.

    If, and its a huge is as all they have is the right to appeal, SISU could make a solid case they now have no other choice but to build a new stadium I wouldn't be surprised to see them try and get CCC on the hook for that as part of a compensation package.

    It will mean the bail out loan to ACL which remained in place after the sale of ACL to Wasps. Same thought has crossed my mind on more than one occasion. Although a JR is only supposed to deal with things as they stood at a certain point in time if SISU can somehow drag the sale into it then...

    Wasps were aware of the pending legal action when they took over ACL so unless a deal is in place for CCC and Higgs to cover any payout it would be down to ACL to pay and if they don't have the cash then Wasps as owners to cover it.

    I'd love new owners but who are the Trust suggesting we get in, they aren't exactly queuing up. And of course any new owner will still face the issue of lack of revenues and stadium ownership. New owners would be very welcome but I'm not sure it is the magic bullet to fix all our problems.
