What exactly are the rules? My understanding has always been if you haven't filed your accounts in time you're in an embargo which means you can't sign any players at all. This 1 in 1 out is a new one on me. Of course I'm not ruling out that this happens all the time and I've just never noticed...

well it's good news of course but it would be hypocritical having criticised the situation with signings at Pompey last season not to question why they league are again totally ignoring their own rules in lifting the embargo. All I'm saying is I would like to know the reasoning behind lifting...

I can't wait to see how the FL have decided we're out of embargo? None of the companies involved have filed accounts and it would seem likely with the attendances at Sixfields we won't hit FFP targets either.

And of course none of us knows what, if any, business they had to turn away as it couldn't be accommodated alongside CCFC. I imagine if you're running a business event you don't really want to run it when 10K football fans are wandering around. The other thought is does the fact that the pitch...

That's not the same argument, if you're asking could ACL have survived financially based on their old mortgage and prior to their internal restructuring that's a totally different question to asking what their status is now. Given that their auditors were happy to sign off on the basis that...

weren't the latest accounts signed off after CCFC had stopped paying so although the accounts themselves don't cover the no payment period ACL's auditors have signed off on ACL being a viable business.

There's the problem, neither holdings or otium have filed accounts. the punishment for that is an embargo! by the time they get round to it the FL will have some attendance figures to check against the FFP budget SISU submitted. If the attendances are as bad as they look like being we'll be in...

No idea but he seems to keep moaning about it being 2 separate entities at the moment which doesn't seem that big of a deal to me, it's not the most complex business transaction in the world to buy 2 things and then merge them into 1!!

Business make budgets based on what they are expecting to happen. They were expecting £1.3m in rent from CCFC, when they stopped paying of course that caused issues. The whole point of the swap to the lower rate loan as well as the internal restructuring (including losing some of the highest...

this is what I don't get. whenever he makes a comment he seems to be massively over complicating things. Make a deal to buy everything SISU has and make a deal to buy ACL. If he can't grasp this concept then there's not much hope with him really is there.

Had to check on the club website, hard to tell which statements are people taking the piss and which are genuine these days!

Is this just a meeting she's trying to arrange that nobody will turn up to or is this something that is actually likely to happen?

problem is most FL games on Sky have loads of empty stands, just saying don't turn up won't look any different to many games on sky.

If a serious buyer suggested that I would guess it would be considered. Obviously there would have to be some definition of who has what as some areas are currently used by both the stadium and the exhibition hall. Don't think SISU would be interested in that in the slightest.

Peterborogh were paying the council £500K, has been dropped to £300K for 12 months but will go back up to £380K the following year and then £430K after that. 15K capacity ground build in 1934. Looking at that I'd say even at £1.2m the Rioch rent doesn't look too bad. If either of the other...

But you're forgetting that Fisher assured us the lower revenues wouldn't have an impact as SISU would cover the losses.

do that at the Sheff Utd match when Sky will be there. people aren't going to go to Northampton every week to stand on the hill so might as well make it when the cameras will be there

if the offers we're hearing about aren't true why doesn't Fisher come out and say we've never been offered that, if ACL will offer that we'll accept. Or he could just say what they would accept. He won't because he's not going to come out and say the only deal they'll accept is ownership of the...

It's starting to get a bit suspicious, not saying CWR are up to anything dodgy but you struggle to find more than a handful of people who are pro SISU. I didn't speak to anyone on Saturday who was, thousands of people were on the march and no bugger is buying tickets for northampton so why are...

why only those clubs? are they the only clubs in the country who have been offered a better deal than SISU, that would seem to indicate that the vast majority of clubs have a worse deal than was offered to SISU.
