Fisher finally gets Ann Lucas where he wants her. http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=MAG705gAbf4

Said much the same(though far more concisely!)on GMK some years ago, along the lines of " If I wanted to cheer on good financial results I'd go to a fucking Tesco' shareholders meeting". Might need to update that one!

Should imagine that the lease would become effectively freehold and clean of restrictions once existing contracts on the site come to an end. 125 years, and 250 years effectively offer that. The initial length of lease offered by CCC to ACL was far too short for the amount paid for it.

Is it somewhere between "Hell freezing over", and "Building bridges"?

There are articles where they say they would accept a long lease too. Do you believe that Fisher won't bring us back to the arena then? Despite us actually fucking being there?

Do we own the Arena then or are we not back? Bit confused, because obviously it must be one or the other then?

I find it amazing how certain people can keep going on about Sisu only wanting the unencumbered freehold, when it isn't true at all.

I stopped reading when he went on about fucking renting a house. Never see it as you pay a fortune to rent a house off somebody, you're only allowed in it 20 odd days a year, though you get stung with the Council Tax for the whole place each year. They then sublet it to other people the rest of...

A difference though to things said for public consumption and things said in private though.

Apparently Wasps,(according to some) paid an extra £1million to extend the lease to 250 years, around 20% of the ACL purchase price. I'm still wondering when the Charities Commission are going to look into how Higgs managed to lose so much money on their original investement? Was a scandal...

It's almost like Sisu never attempted to buy half of ACL with a 125 year lease for the same price as Wasps paid for all of it with a 250 year lease isn't it?

Still CT guesswork, "commercial confidentiality" and all that.

Kingsman- The Secret Service-9/10 - One of the ebst films seen for ages, really great fun. Colin Firth - Pride and Death with Extreme Prejudice. Very much recommend it for anybody when out on DVD, if not still on at the cinema.

Didn't he say that we would never go back to the Ricoh as tenants?

Well that's the midfield described to a "T"!

Think we had to get dispensation to play our first three games away. The second game against Southampton was my first at the Ricoh, corporate, but none of the ovens worked and had to have cold food from what I remember.

The biggest balls up was ,when looking through the average attendances ,was that not once(even with the new stadium "Wow" factor) has our average attendance been greater than the max capacity of Highfield Road. All traced back to Richardson's hubris and greed.

Average league gate now 9120, so quadrupled the support in one season!

Is that what the loan terms are?

Would be nice if he did join us, always liked him, but nobody will come to this club whilst we have the clowns that we have in charge.
