    Is CCFC a worthy investment?

    Oh I agree but I'm wondering if they know how to 'mean' anything! But why are they hanging in like grim death? Are they still putting faith in a favourable court outcome? If so how does that change things should they win? Or is it that no one is seriously interested and may simply wait for the...

    New manager - who do you want?? (realistic candidates only)

    I was wondering if a deal could be made with a well known manager who has connections and might want to get a consortium together? Someone like say Glen Hoddle? Or the Neville boys may have been but a bit late there. There must be one or two rather rich celebrity former managers and players like...

    Is CCFC a worthy investment?

    The £20 is what I believe the investors are in the hole for. SkyBlue 58 says around £18 so about right. I'm not saying someone should come in with £20m. In fact I think half that would get them interested or at least ought to!

    What would happen if?

    £10m is the figure I believe is worth targeting but will require further investment funds for the club to move forward and get a decent side on the pitch! The issue is why would the current owners not look at an approach from interested parties and where are any interested parties? Who or what...

    Bees in trouble

    Move them to the Ricoh a perfect multi use stadium. More for WASP coffers and and I can see a BEE motif alongside a wasp motif quite amusing!

    Brazilian Team in Plane Crash

    This is so sad.

    Is CCFC a worthy investment?

    In theory but money has been moved around considerably or written down/off and as olderSkyblue 58 has indicated even £10m would be a stretch. But your art of the deal is the right approach and all things are possible. The 64 million dollar question is what will SISU settle for?

    very funny :)

    The second half or the January turn!

    Some of the top teams we now face at home. The others are largely teams we met while they were in better form but are now occupying the lower half after a slump in their form and therefore less of a threat to us second time around. Just trying to say that on paper it now looks like an easier...

    Is CCFC a worthy investment?

    Agree with this. There is of course the so called 'good will' that has to have a value and i assume that's what you mean by the 'badge'. In the world of football there are many who would speculate a few million to revive a club of our stature surely? I certainly hope so and any small success...

    What would happen if?

    Study WASP turnover and expenditure and their path to sustainability. The Ricoh is in dire need of upgrades and a lot of general required maintenance a matter of huge expenditure alone that has already been ignored too long. There are many, many mitigating factors here that make a deal with the...

    What would happen if?

    The last sentence says it all. The "right people in charge". There is no guarantee it would be different in some obscure league either yet you are willing to chance? Our plight is SISU right now. Get them gone and we are already in league 1 and all the things you just said can apply from that...

    What would happen if?

    So you as WASP would see that future potential slip away? Don't you have some smaller clients who may well be worth keeping because you may reap a larger reward later? I know I do all the time! Foolish not to guard the potential of a good meal. If it's miles away then ask Southampton the same...

    The second half or the January turn!

    Yes we do. But the teams we now face are predominately now in the lower half of the league. We face very few 'top' teams from January. That has to be reason for optimism surely?

    What would happen if?

    The question you should then ask yourself is why would they not actively seek the football clubs footfall of some potential 30+k for near 20 times a season? Sharing some would be far better than none of it right? Furthermore when the football club reaches the giddy heights of the premier league...

    What would happen if?

    Lets be more honest here. We are already in league 1. We have one of the largest budgets in the league believe it or not! We nearly had a promotion season last term but ultimately failed. What's to say we can't repeat that and go one step further? So why all the negativity about liquidating the...

    What would happen if?

    I think there is a perfectly good stadium we currently play in that will want it's cities football to occupy. The owners of that stadium will want us there. New ownership will give them a clean slate to thrash out a deal to suit both parties including access to revenue streams. There is no cause...

    The second half or the January turn!

    Take a look at our fixtures from January on. Do you see what I see? Now the league has settled somewhat we know where the difficult and easier fixtures appear to be. To me we have very few difficult fixtures at all! Those that are seem to be home fixtures too. There is therefore reason to...
