Obviously, I am aware of the other bids and I believe the Chinese bid is potentially very exciting but that wasnt the premise of this thread, I was just throwing out a scenario for discussion. A scenario which could well still come to pass, despite the other interested parties

Presumably Puma hold all the old designs though and could just produce some more

Is there anything to stop them recycling last years kit (minus the citylink logo) for the new season?

Here's a question for you, if a deal could be reached that meant SISU remained in control but that the debts were cleared, we stayed at the Ricoh and had access to the income streams from the stadium would you accept that? For me it's a tough one, they have shown themselves to be poor owners...

I think thats the crux of it right there. SISU are a relatively small hedge fund that looks to make a short term investment for a quick return. They were the wrong kind of operation to ever get involved with a football club. They didn't understand what they were getting in to or what it takes to...

Purely conjecture on my part but Michael Byng has strong connections with Chinese Telecoms giant Huawei and they employ a substantial amount of people within the UK already and are looking to expand further - possibly even opening a new R&D centre here. They are set to become the next big name...

He may have been alluding to the coaching staff of course................ it's them I feel sorry for really, players will always get another club and are paid well for their services but poor old Oggy has had to put up with the various showers of shite that have controlled the club for a long...

If a major corporation came in offering to invest in the Citys infrastructure and create new jobs in Cov but ownership of the Ricoh was required in exchange the council would sell it in a heartbeat, or at the very least come to some sort of long term lease agreement. Not getting too excited...

I see where you are going with it but surely the council would impose conditions on the sale

You have proven nothing, all it shows is where the league believe the golden share lies, a fact which holdings dispute and is at the centre of our current predicament. I don't give two hoots about the trust or what they have or haven't done, all that matters now is what the administrator...

I think that would largely depend on the deal that could, or could not as the case may be, agreed with ACL. If they were willing to bring the rent down to a sensible level and share the revenues with the club then I would want the club to stay put. If they could not offer that and Haskell...

Ermmmm wheres the news here? You emailed the league and got their standard response back? We all know that the share was in ltd originally, that has no bearing on where the share is now. If it was that simple the administrator would have finished his work weeks ago wouldn't he.

This confused the hell out of me for a minute because the site of the former Hillman/Peugeot factory at Ryton is also called prologis park

If only..............

If the league awards the golden share to holdings then ACL would have no say in the matter would they? Thats a genuine question if I have misunderstood the situation then please tell me.

You would assume that a man in his position would not be stupid enough to base his entire argument upon a document that doesn't really exist........... then again......:p

We would not be able to start the season without the golden share issue being resolved. So, if the league decided not to issue holdings with the share then they could not field a team which in theory would pave the way for Haskell taking over, assuming the league thought him a fit and proper...

For all made Tim's bullshit, I do believe him on one point. I do believe that the council/ACL were intent on removing SISU from the club. Whether they were right to do that or not is another question but it does make you wonder if we wouldn't be better off with SISU buying out the debt and...

I am genuinely concerned that they would sooner see the end of the club than walk away from it. I only see it ending one of two ways, either Appleton in conjunction with the league awards the golden share to new owners and we start again but still at the Ricoh or SISU win out, ticket sales...
