Think you might be getting Mutton and Matton mixed up. It was first claimed it had been borrowed from some (central government?) fund, that turned out to be untrue and it had been paid from council reserves. When that became apparent Matton claimed it was a cashflow issue. Not really the same...

Except they didn't have the financial power to pay off the loan. CCC had to bail them out. CCC loaned them the money to pay off YB, originally stated to be money they had borrowed on ACL's behalf which turned out to be untrue as it was from council reserves. They made a big deal of what a...

The news about the North Stand is above the big picture of Joe Elliot.

Agreed but that doesn't mean it wasn't worth taking the punt.

I'm talking about when he first turned up before it all kicked off. As much as we all agree now that there was a problem with the rent at the time there were lots of comments that the club had agreed to it and there shouldn't be a problem. We even had PWKH come on here to tell us it was only...

I would imagine the company in administration had the right to bid. SISU, Otium or whatever they are called this week could make a bid via that company by saying they would give the administrator a token payment for that right to bid. Essentially then the administrator would be doing the right...

You don't really need to not have ACL in place as you would own ACL and use them as your prop co. Once you've got ownership you don't need to keep a single person there if you don't want them. I suspect it was more about the existing contracts, especially if any of them were front loaded so ACL...

Well before you read it you don't know what its going to be. That's why its clickbait! We're all going to click if something pops up on social media implying Mogga is about to leave. Only when you read it does it turn out to be complete rubbish. And of course there are those that believe every...

Think Simon's a decent guy - at least he took the time to come on here and engage. I would imagine the stuff that came out in the ethics hearing was a) before his time and b) well above his pay grade. That said he probably feels a little foolish now having vigorously defended the CT only to...

We have no idea how much we were paying his. Might not be much and Mogga doing him a favour. Worth a look and at least he's not keeping him around once they've decided he isn't going to make the step up to the first team.

Can't imagine his wages are going to be much so worth a punt if Mowbray likes what he's seen.

Fair enough, seems an honest enough assessment from Mogga. Waggott would have probably given him a 5 year contract extension!

Did you put all the results in? Must have taken bloody ages.

CEX do mail order. They have it in stock for £15. Used them before and not had any problems with delivery.

You mean people like the hotel operators and the beer suppliers? :thinking about:

He said the rent was too high and ACL were over-reliant on CCFC. He also said the bank were getting twitchy about the loan. Is anyone going to argue that the rent wasn't too high? There's a strong case ACL were over-reliant on CCFC hence the changes when they were no longer getting our rent...

Equally, you are told it is worth £10 million. You want to pay £5 million. You withhold rent in order to make it worth £5 million. Council sells to someone else for £2m.

But again we don't know what happened prior to us going to Northampton. This is where the PR war comes in. Think about what Fisher has said since he first got here about ACL. Turns out, despite most of us (myself included) ripping the piss out of him, he was right. What if he went into talks in...

Could try the London supporters club, might be able to get a lift with someone: http://cclsc.org.uk/ or tweet the club and ask them to retweet.

You don't know that. SISU haven't shown themselves so far to be masters of PR. Suspect how you ask the question would also impact the response. For example its very different to be asked "are you happy with how the Ricoh is being used" to "are you happy that the council sold the Ricoh to a...
