Looking at their local paper site there does seem to be a lot more resistance to it than when it was first announced. The police don't seem happy, local residents are complaining and I've seen at least one NTFC sponsor who has said they are withdrawing as a result of this.

not sure how much revenue they'll get from NTFC, all their F&B is outsourced and Cardoza has stated they will be dealing with the extra matches and getting the money from that. He's also said that NTFC will be getting a cut of everything else. Given we're looking at a 75% or more reduction in...

Turns out Sydney Sky Blues are going to be in Europe for 3 weeks, think it would get a decent amount of press to have them play at the Rioch, game against a legends team would get a decent turnout. http://www.footballaustralia.com.au/news-display/sydney-fc-to-embark-on-european-tour/70549

Good point, SISU are claiming holdings is the club so what's stopping them making all these signings they supposedly have lined up?

Pompey fell below the minimum squad size as they refused to even put their kids on the bench, we've going to have a problem if we're trying to use that rule as the league will count the 'bomb squad' as eligible senior players.

they have to be, despite SISU claiming there is nowhere for CCFC to play as far as I know a lease still exists saying CCFC will be playing at the Ricoh. Can you imagine if SISU suddenly said we want to play at the Ricoh but ACL said sorry it's not ready.

might be another company worth emailing and see what a bit of pressure does. Noticed on the Northants Chronicle site one of their advertisers saying they were pulling out as they don't agree with the ground share.

isn't the idea that it's being done early so people will be back in time for a second protest at the game in the afternoon?

So no problem with someone wanting to give him a slap then ;)

I think Tims having some sort of breakdown. Every time he's interviewed he sounds less sure what he's saying and he statements that are coming out on the website are like the rumblings of a madman. He's backed himself and SISU into a corner and people are starting to ask questions he can't...

Sure these plans he's talking about will be up on the official website ASAP or have the league stopped them releasing them along with the survey results?!

Appleton now saying he will mediate between SISU and ACL, why didn't he do that to start with? Maybe he's getting a bit worried people are going to start asking questions about how the administration was carried out.

What Tim, sorry true sky blue, is saying is if you pay back SISU every penny of the made up debt figure and a nice chunk on top they might consider leaving. Meanwhile in the real world there are metrics to value companies and CCFC is worth very little and the longer SISU are here the lower that...

I've been keeping an eye on their local paper site and initially the attitude seemed to be as long as they got some money no problem but that seems to be changing with the realization of who they are dealing with and the potential issues.

They were giving out Asian women at Euston?

I reckon they would, they know as well as we do Fisher is never going to build another stadium.

I may be wrong here as I haven't looked it up but didn't ACL offer a reduction to £400K (which turned out to be less than WFC pay for the Bescott) and access to their share of F&B profits, plus cross invoicing of all F&B only to have it rejected by SISU?

of course we're all assuming some sort of fancy retractable roof, surely there must be a cheap temporary option?

this could be a massive point. if the trust, ACL etc can demonstrate that the Ricoh is a viable option the FL will be in a very difficult position. ACL need to make a strong statement ASAP saying the Ricoh will be ready for the start of the season and they are happy to deal with whoever the FL...
