    It's probably the same affliction that makes people think we were run like a model football club until SISU walked in the door....

    Crass... doesn't make yours better.

    Firstly, your analogy is crass... have a bit of class. Secondly, of course it's the responsibility of the owners to engage the fan base, make the product better, give them deals (£5 for JPT games as an example is a great idea) and attendances should improve. But what is wrong with other people...

    So if I put the idea on a PowerPoint - does it become a strategy? You say it is repeated a number of times, which it is.. but that's because no one has actually done it have they? Encouraging fans to attend as many games as they can is not a kneejerk response is it? What evidence? The evidence...

    If your research is as detailed as you say it is.. you will clearly see the point I was trying to make, but is obviously lost on you.

    Why don't the campaign groups involved with CCFC make a concerted effort to encourage their members to attend every single game they can manage. There's a positive starting point for you.

    I think that had it been done, then opinion on this would have been significantly different. There would not be any justification for SISU turning down what Wasps got the Ricoh for... none in a million years.

    Who called you a liar? I said that in the quote I referenced there was no mention of 50%. By saying 'Wasps paid 2.77m for ACL' you are implying that was for 100%. Hence me saying it was not relevant as the two pieces of information did not match.

    This is your original quote... the one I referenced. It doesn't suggest 50% at all. You have not mentioned 50% anywhere in that. Wasps did not offer 2.77m for ACL did they?

    I may be wrong... but I thought they could talk to anyone... but only sign a pre-contact agreement with a club in a different country. Happy to be corrected :)

    Thank you for this... obviously it is clear to see that there were a lot of factors affecting the value of ACL all the way through this. The point I was trying to make was that when the discussion between SISU and ACL were ongoing regarding that 50% share there were values pitched/discussed...

    They sold ACL to Wasps and a 250 year lease for less than the 'deal' they had looked to do with SISU previously (before the loan was re-financed)

    Becuase you are talking about the entire purchase of ACL - and using the example of what was only a 50% purchase... when the first 50% was already owned by Wasps.

    It does not matter which extract it comes from, it does not change the fact that how they portrayed ACL as a business was a lie. The argument that the loan from CCC put them in a stronger position than before falls down because they sold the business for even less afterwards.

    So ACL did need the club, they were not in the financially strong position they claimed to be. So the council, including Anne Lucas lied.

    Contract extensions under SISU

    Probably down to the fact we were offered 750K and he hadnt played for 8 months

    This deal is in relation to a 50% share of ACL... Notably the Higgs proportion. The other 50% has already been sold to Wasps and they potentially had veto over the sale. So to use this an example is not relevant at all is it.....

    Callum Wilson was a senior player when his was extended.

    Is that not what they said in the JR? The document that you love to quote from like it's scripture.
