So you've just proven that they were unable to buy Higgs' share at the time of acquisition of CCFC.

It's always the same - spout off like you know everything, then as soon as you can't answer you resort to verbal abuse.

So if you had understood Nick's point in the first place he was referring directly to the point at which SISU arrived in 2007. Pay attention

In 2007??? So I'll ask again - seeing as you don't appear to understand. If the deal was £10m for half of Ricoh in 2007, then why would CCC have SISU as preferred bidders if they only thought it was worth £6m? Why did the not select either of the other two bidders who both publicly expressed...

How many times are you going to dodge the relevant question?

I'm sure the Observer will be on board.

I don't think it is per se, but it's more about positive news - are the CET going to support a CCFC positivity drive..?

Agree - but they don't seem able to distinguish between anti SISU and anti CCFC, all whilst keeping the vermin happy.

So where does this revelation come from? And again if that was really the actual deal then why have SISU as preferred bidder??

Paying kids 3k a week without a single first team appearance is the kind of thing that got us in this mess in the first place.

Why were the other 2 bidders who wanted to buy the stadium or at least a share not the preferred ones over SISU? o_O

Who knew the press were the ones deciding the structure of the deal...

I think that where CRFC may struggle in the future is developing own players, attracting young players to their youth system as we know where they will go.

All you've done is illustrate the point so many of us are making. SISU are the evil hedge fund ripping of a charity for their investors. Wasps are the sympathetic organisation offering a solution and getting the best deal for their team. They are one and the same doing the same thing for the...

Does that mean it's OK to steal a mans wallet if someone else has already kicked the shit out of him?

The discussions between CA and Wasps suggested that although they were civil, there were sticking points in regards to what each party wants/is prepared to offer. It may be that these points are not going to be resolved - so from a Wasps perspective, they have a free pass by dropping in the...

If this was true (which I hope is!!) it would indicate a level of long term planning that has been generally absent in CCFC dealings in the last 20 years. I've got lots of things crossed.

Coventry are attempting to become the City of Culture in 2021... Maybe a bit far out, but this could be a point of action as they must choose way before then. Anything detrimental to that bid is going to certainly get us noticed. I feel ultimately that our football will be our biggest weapon. A...
