    Whatever happened to

    Should read: It'll be a miracle if SISU ever SELL the club or stop litigation against everyone they do business with.

    CCFC, Otium & JR2

    Many thanks to OSB for his due diligence in publicising the relationships between the various companies in the SISU group. I have consistently thought that the club [Otium] was merely a vehicle for litigation to distress various stakeholders & this OSB analysis confirms my view. There is one...

    Is this how it looks?

    As the leaders of both Labour & Conservatives made a joint statement, that’s obviously them off your list. Does anyone know the position of the other parties?

    Open Letter to Supporters

    We all want a positive outcome to this debacle, but I'm seriously worried that protests directed at the games will adversely impact on the team. So far, Joy has not been bothered by our negative chants, running on the pitch, throwing pigs, banners, etc. So repeating the same tactics is very...

    Open Letter to Supporters

    I'm late to this thread, so apologies if this was view has already been aired. It's obvious that we are facing difficulties unless someone backs down. My concern is that whilst the Supreme Court appeal and other posturing is going on that the progress on the field stalls, due to distractions...

    Appeal Dismissed

    Sisu have been very consistent in using the club as a vehicle for litigation with the aim of realising significant financial gain from the real estate. I find it hard to believe they have any real interest in football. If they win any future case, I would have no confidence that SISU would...

    Conor Chaplin

    We cannot afford to have McNulty back - simply because of the wages that he's currently on. MR has a good track record in improving forwards and given Chaplin's age....I would be confident that he'll come good.

    Appeal Dismissed

    I think the commercial interests of Wasps will prevail and the point at which the terms for CCFC to stay at the Ricoh outweighs the costs and litigation risk will determine the outcome. On the face of it Wasps could do with the extra cash, as they look like they are struggling to make their...

    The never ending court story

    As OSB has pointed out the fact is due to Otium [CCFC] being on the last court petition, then in a legal sense the club is taking action against CCC & Wasps. If Wasps are holding their position of not discussing a new agreement whilst there is potential for another legal case, then we could end...

    Former players Assn blunder

    He was always known as the spider......never heard him called the cat. We used to chant "spider" at him and usually got a wave back from him. One of my favourite players.

    Seems to be working quicker - thanks!

    The never ending court story

    The bottom line is the breakdown in relationships between the various stakeholders. If SISU had pursued a different strategy a few years ago, then things could have been very different. Their actions have been the biggest factor in attitudes of the other parties. They had the option of...

    The never ending court story

    The litigation has the potential to continue infinitum. What this boils down to is the price that Wasps are prepared to put up with CCFC as tenants, whilst the parent company is seeking financial redress via the courts. Money will talk, but I can't help but think the price could be higher than...

    The never ending court story

    They are....and most companies will have insurance to cover an element of these costs. However, Wasps staff time would not be covered and they may wish to seek redress for the indirect costs incurred. Any legal action can cause significant disruption to daily business and achievement of...

    The never ending court story

    There a number of factors that need to be taken into consideration, as ChiefDave has already pointed out having CCFC as a tenant does not incur an "opportunity cost" to Wasps. Therefore, CCFC provides some additional direct and indirect funding streams. However, if the ongoing litigation costs...

    Match Day Thread - Sky Blue Sports & Leisure Limited and Others -v- Coventry City Council and Others

    It’s not the establishment, but producing actual evidence that SISU has a case . So far the laws of our country say NO!

    The never ending court story

    How come I’m not surprised. It seems to me that their only motivation in holding onto our club is maintaining a connection for their litigation strategy. In the meantime MR is working hard to produce success on the pitch, but he must wonder if our owners focus shifted to the playing side, how...
