Point is I doubt they would be playing as well at the Ricoh.

...so why has uncle Joe and his cohorts Haskell and Hoffman made a move? The chance of any of these ideas seemed to die months ago. Anyone attempting to buy the stadium (in any form) would take a huge risk that they could procure the club from SISU? Not going to happen is it?

Well firstly protest should now be concentrated on all parties in this dispute. So ACL/Council, SISU et al should be in the firing line in equal measure. They may not share equal responsibility for this mess but they sure do each share in the sorry mess it has become. You need them all round the...

This is interesting KingPower but not accurate reflection though. Lets say what you have put there is 4/5'sth of income lost? OK take now factor in the cut backs in players wages and other staff and overhead. lets say equal to another 1/5th saved? Ok now lets remember the 1.2m rent we no...

I hope that what OSB has done here in the OP and a couple of further answers, has enlightened everyone to the facts a little more clearly? So can we have more sensible talk from now on about this whole issue without the assumptions and rhetoric that gets repeated without facts often appearing...

Good all round summary by OSB. Nothing new in there but I would disagree slightly over the thought SISU want the stadium freehold. I do see the financial road ahead for building a new stadium. Perhaps it's the entrepreneur in me. I certainly would not discount it. Attendances may be low at...

I don't disagree with that either. In fact you may have noticed this thread has got people agreeing more than normal of late? And I also agree the JR is upcoming and a few other things before we will probably get some movement going forward on the big issues. Still would like to see the...

I like that King Power and something similar was up for discussion a week or so ago. I was 50/50 on that at the time because the post were highly informational but now my point is they have become tedium and none news worthy. As for which one of those forums would get more hits makes no...

So I live in an Ivory Tower? Seems if we are not arguing with each other we are taking snipes. You miss the entire point I was making. Like your mention of football related stuff though ;)

There was forum for all things 'finances etc ' relating to CCFC and that now is where it should be. Not denying you or others that any substantial NEW news would be welcome on here of course but the mundane stuff that keeps getting on here is muddying the fun of the forum. You want to keep...

Wolves away is a game I'm already looking forward to. Lot of water under the bridge since 1967. I'll take in a few at Sixfield's here and there, pretty much the same as I have always done to the Ricoh. From where I live they are about equidistant. Can't help thinking the side are playing well...

I can't agree with you. We all love our Sky Blues and all of us are on this forum - it's not about the 90% division of people who are not going to 'home games' it's about the 100% who read this forum. It's also not about 'not reading them' I don't anymore but that does not stop me opening them...

Missed that first time round...

I just logged in for a quick check and relief from an otherwise busy day and for the first time I find nothing I either want to read particularly or find anything that interest me on this forum. This whole sense of continued post about the current issues are becoming monotonous, with the...

Please....

Chorlton makes some good observations but I think that is slightly off the mark imo. Think they will sell when they either build a stadium or unite it with the Ricoh. It's important to remember the argument of charging enormous rent to the club if they get the Ricoh is false. The agreement to...

My observation from those photo's show about 60 people standing around, hands in pockets all watching the game! Didn't look much like protesting to me. Still each to their own, you do what you feel is right. I think more attention would be gained if you were inside the ground shouting from the...

If we can all agree that SISU now in the guise of Otium are prepared to fund the loses for 3 years instead of trying desperately to get back in at the Ricoh where 10k plus a match would be far better for them then we can begin to see they mean to move on unless a sustainable offer is made...

I'm not so sure tonylinc that the idea of stressing ACL is still the objective. It was, has been but I believe they may have moved on from there. According to some opinions ACL are perfectly capable of continuing into profits without the football club so with the football club no longer a tenant...

I don't doubt that either BSB but they have committed to funding the 3 years away. If that leads to the clubs own stadium then there will be a lot of apologist on here. Ideally of course it could end sooner and a better deal altogether than what they had to a return at the Ricoh. In the end the...
