    Championship 21/22

    Unfortunately I think the premature death of Sir Derek Higgs played a part in our financial woes and hence our journey down the leagues. I am convinced had he not died, the SISU debacle would never have happened as it was his fathers charity money that purchased the share in the arena that was...

    Phil Upton exlusive

    When Sisu took over the club, they offered all existing shareholders a non-voting and non-participating class of shares, I cannot remember if I ever got mine.

    First Team Coach Vacancy

    Has somebody.. Jason Farndon? (First team coach and technical coach and head of U23 Development) left the club, or is this an incremental role being advertised?

    The shushing Shipley

    I am continually amazed at how some of the people on this site seem to delight in pulling our players to pieces. Shipley may not be a world beater, but he has done more than the vast majority of posters on this site will ever do with respect to having a career in football. it takes time to...

    Penalty.

    I find this thread amazing. How many times have you seen the ball go straight down the Centre of the goal and the keeper has dived one way or the other so missed the ball. Whereas, if the keeper had stood still he could have caught the ball. Sounds simple, but most keepers dive and if they get...

    Cov fans in the wild.

    Melbourne on the way to the MCG to watch the boxing day test in 2017. Mumba at the Wankhede stadium Dec 2016, England were playing a test series in India. Needless to say we lost both games :o(

    New Stadium Announcement!!!!!!

    There are two billboards on the Rowleys Green island that the insects use to advertise their games, would be great if we could get those two quotes up on the billboard. One on each. Does anyone know how much it would cost to hire those billboards for a period of time?

    New Sponsor. Place your bets

    With all the issues JLR have, you can rule them out. With the announcement yesterday of a French National being appointed as the new CEO or whatever they are calling him watch out for a collaboration with a French car company 😂

    Who loses out in this debacle?

    I am interested as to why you say Eastwood for Wasps. Is it not Richardson who is the puppet master for Wasps and of course Joy for CCFC. Boddy, Vaughan and Eastwood are all employees unless I have got it wrong.

    Boddy Update

    😀 so Canmango are owned by Wasps Holdings which they purchased from Moonstone Holdings in June 2014 for £1.00. Canmango have a debt outstanding to them by Wasps of £10,617,799 which dates back to 2014. Wasps are owned by Moonstone Holdings of Malta which as I said earlier are part of MGI...

    Boddy Update

    I too believe that if Wasps go pop then the Ricoh reverts back to the council and the lease reverts back to what would be left had it not been extended. What I mean by this is, if the lease had 48 years left two years ago, it would now have 46 years left. The figures I just quoted were as an...

    Pump It Up - CCFC Promotion Story

    Hmm, not sure if it’s my I pad or the Telegraph website. I have tried to read it three times and each time the site has crashed! Have given up and will try again later on the PC.

    Possible Site for the elusive new ground ?

    Yes it is. As I think most people would get from the words I used like elusive, fairytale ground and I can dream. I don’t think for one moment Sisu have either the finance or wherewithal to build us a new Stadium, but what I do know, is, if it were come to pass and be within the city boundary...

    Possible Site for the elusive new ground ?

    You are of course correct. But it’s funny how these things work out. If the authority or governing body are on board with it, these things happen a lot quicker. If they are not on board, then things take a lot longer. Any application from CCFC for a new ground within the jurisdiction of CCC...

    Possible Site for the elusive new ground ?

    All of those sites that you mention could well be an option. But they all have one thing in common( no pun intended), they all come under the control of CCC and from what we have seen thus far, CCC are not exactly falling over themselves to assist CCFC locate a suitable site. But..... you...

    Possible Site for the elusive new ground ?

    I know, it’s a complete fantasy but it would be nice to stick one up CCC in sight of what’s I hope becomes a failed Insect insurgence and they, CCC get left with an empty stadium!

    Possible Site for the elusive new ground ?

    I was driving past the Ricoh earlier today, towards the M6, when it struck me that would it not be a great place to build Sisus fairytale ground. That is, on the site of the failed Macro/ Leekes Superstore and now the home of a secondhand car sales depo. Not sure they would be happy, but the...
