Maybe he's talking about Rangers and their brilliant deal with sports direct where they get 75p from every £10 of revenue.

At least he gave good financial advice :D

How much of a better deal is it in reality? If you factor in the extra matchday costs, the loss of office, club shop and ticket office how much better off are we?

That's not a bad shout actually. Although you'd probably want police rather than stewards. With facial recognition technology improvements how long before its in use to stop those with bans coming back in.

Except what you've described happens fairly regularly in business. Fitness First are a recent example that spring to mind. Business model was flawed and couldn't compete with the lo-cost 24 hour gyms. Told their landlord they couldn't afford to pay and needed to be released from the lease on...

Wish we'd hurry up with the pick back up bit.

So when people were up in arms at the thought of SISU potentially paying Higgs less than the £10m formula price as they were taking money from a charity that would have been put to good use they were talking rubbish?

Won't somebody think of the children!

No I'm saying the exact opposite, the banks are in it for themselves. CCC are saying this loan was made on a commercial basis. Try going to a bank and saying your worried about your business going under because your struggling to meet your financial commitments and ask them to refinance your...

Keep an eye on the clubs twitter. Might be some returns.

Does God not approve of football then?

Except that wasn't the situation. It would be like inheriting a house worth £200K and then getting a loan for £500K. On top of that when the bank who are thinking of loaning you the money look at your finances you're already struggling to meet your current commitments.

But if CCC are saying there was no risk to loaning ACL £14m as the value of ACL was greater than £14m (you put it at £50m) then when we get to JR2 they will be trying to prove that the sale price to Wasps was not poor value for the taxpayer. How can both be true? Remember the councils own...

It was the judge who asked how much CCC had invested into ACL so he must think it relevant. If you've invested zero does making a risky loan of £14m make sense?

If they make that arguement they totally play into SISU's hands for JR2.

The lawyers.

There will always be a certain amount of inconsistency at this level. After all if the players were consistently good they wouldn't be in L1! The problem is when one or two of our players have a dip in form the whole system seems to fall apart rather than other players picking up the slack.

ACL was 50% owned by CCC and 50% owned by Higgs. However they weren't running it day to day, it had its own management etc. ACL was in debt in the form of the Yorkshire Bank loan. There had been an agreement made that any profit would be used to make overpayments on the loan to get it paid off...

If it does't pick up in the first couple of episodes think I'll be giving up on it.
