Bournemouth, which I know very well as I ran a business there in the late 80's and early 90's and through that met Harry Redknap I can tell you is not a football town per sae and never will be. he used to joke that the owners were happy to gain a promotion and drop down again and then promote...

...and for one brief moment there I thought we would build a team around him. Where's Clarke? - can we get him back? :)

Seems to me that a lot has been forgotten due to the excesses of legal battles and contentious fall outs over the Ricoh Arena. The fact is we still have a football club playing in the league this coming season and buying and selling players, building a squad for a promotion challenge (says...

Everybody signed up to this forum site IS a supporter I'll have you know!

If the 'email' is true then how bizarre! It's like reading something from two boys is a toy shop fighting for the best toy. So unprofessional and to think (if true) it comes from a revered banker? Good grief I thought the offer previously on that a fag packet? - was bad enough! Laughable. Then...

No one supports SISU skyblurfred. The fact remains they are the owners of our football club and our future is in their hands as of now. You support your football club don't you? Then by default you support SISU in efforts to secure a stadium deal for the club right? Trouble is we don't trust...

Nothing exceptionally wrong with that statement tbf but worryingly for me is the point of it? What is the end game by appealing? I don't see even with a reversal that it would lead to 'ownership' of the Ricoh. SISU are not the only players out there should ACL go out of business. I would prefer...

Put in more simple terms; I don't 'support' either SISU or the council/ACL in any of this mess. BOTH have been abysmal in securing a future with CCFC back at the Ricoh. BOTH are culpable and answerable in this saga of spin and ego mixed with a bunch of sabre rattling. Frankly they can BOTH be...

There is no change of heart from me. I did not support SISU and I certainly did not support ACL/Council either, in any of this debacle. I have eared on the side of the football club first and foremost. What I'm saying is SISU must learn that avenues for them and their agenda are closing off...

The next move on the chess board though has even more limited appeal (no pun intended) Joy has to grow some balls (that's a scary thought) and show some humility and announce plan B quickly and effectively. Without that, I fear even the most hardened among us will lose all faith in SISU and...

Seems that this lady has over reached on this one and this feckless situation continuing is all down to her approach. We are back where we started. Now Joy, are you willing to negotiate a deal with ACL to return on a vastly reduced rent including concession monies and grow the football...

As for a new stadium, I have mixed thoughts but it makes no difference. The Ricoh is there and obviously the football club would prefer to be there but a deal to do that must be sought by hook or (as in this case almost) by crook!

they are making a stance for the betterment of what should be ahead in the future and have clearly stated they will finance the Northampton scenario for up the 5 years (proven to the FL) until they get what they consider reasonable. Not short term return will change that and though I hate them...

People are just not getting it Nick. It is not about whether we all despise SISU and their stance and want a return to the Ricoh but this is just inconceivable that anyone would expect such offer to succeed! SISU require something concrete and substantial to return to the Ricoh that would see...

So you want them to throw in the towel and simply give up the fight and return on a whimpy deal that secures nothing? Dead in the water my friend. Clearly naïve in the extreme. I should think the 'business men fronting this idea are too embarrassed to do it themselves!

Who wants to have a go at answering a couple of simple questions? This so called 'offer' is for a rent deal that will not cost SISU to return to the Ricoh with the shadowy businessmen fronting £1m in cash to help that happen, based on the crowds being less than 5000 per game! Seems to me that...

he must be banned from the next world cup and international football for 5 years. At club level it's more difficult...why should Liverpool suffer losing their best player? In this instance I think a fine commensurate with his wages would do the trick. That would be say a years salary and no...

It has got ridiculous but the simple answer is surely the refs message to each dressing room before the match is to warn against it and it will be dealt with harshly if it happens? That would stop it.

Can everyone just stop right now? Talk about mountains out of mole hills! Michael has poked his and kcic's nose where it don't belong. I'm tempted to call this non executive director, who has little 'power' over any decisions about the football club or the top brass at SISU and make an offer...

This is hilarious! What kind of amateurs are you at KCIC? Oh wait a minute, you sent an email to ML and said something like: "here are some details for a way forward which would get you back at the Ricoh, based on the fact you can't do it yourselves but a little group like us can assist you...
