    Doncaster Family Fun Day

    Marketing and sales wouldn't have been told of something like this, last thing SISU would want is for some mug in the club shop to tell everyone what is happening and mess their plans up!

    Setting a Legal Precedent.

    Many companies do this sort of thing, it's not like SISU are the first. But remember most people that can't afford the rent on say office space can simply move to somewhere cheaper, not really an option for CCFC. Also lots of companies change terms of their rent, Fitness First for example...

    Report from the High Court

    I don't see the fact that they're back in court next week as any sort of victory for ACL. The judge has just given them a couple of days to sort out what they want to do as they've turned up to court with not a clue what's going on, it's not the judge saying yes you have a case or no you don't...

    Not much sympathy from Walsall

    the key point would be not what they pay but what they get in return. If they get all the revenue coming in from other events, f&b etc then it's a much better deal that ACL have offered CCFC. If they don't then there is certainly an arguement that ACL are making a more than fair offer or Walsall...

    Adjourned by High Coutr Judge until Tuesday

    It would be a different company going into admin so wouldn't impact what SISU have already done. I believe ACL can propose their preferred administrator but equally SISU can put someone forward or the judge can pick someone totally different.

    Pompey car parking?

    There's no official car park but if you come off the A27 onto A2030 (Eastern Road) you will eventualy come to a crossroads (you'll see a phone shop with a big clock phone on the front and big yellow storage) you can then go straight over which is Rodney Road and there will be signs for car...

    Asset Stripping - Per the Serious Fraud Office

    Wouldn't the FL have to authorise any transfer of the Golden Share or can SISU just do what they want with it?

    Asset Stripping - Per the Serious Fraud Office

    I think we're all just second guessing here, we don't really know the details of what SISU have done and no matter how stupid / incompetent people think they are I can't imagine they'd have taken this action without some legal advise and being pretty confident in what they are doing.

    Weather tomorrow..

    Fratton Park doesn't fare well in bad weather, it's quite often the first, or only, place a game is called off above non league level. Saying that it rained last night fairly heavily but it's OK so far today. Forecast is for more rain tonight.

    Think that's the most sense I've ever heard out of him!

    No more games at the Ricoh

    No I didn't I said a few may go for the novelty. Meaning that some people may stop going but some people who wouldn't have gone might do for the novelty value. For example I've had a mate in Walsall (not a Walsall or City supporter btw) saying he'll come to a game if we end up in Walsall so...

    If playing outside of coventry meant more investment....?

    where is the city boundary? wouldn't the other side of the motorway be out of the city? would people seriously refuse to go if we were playing a mile away from the Rioch (theoretical of course, no idea if there's anywhere to build a stadium there). does bring up another though. If we were to...

    No more games at the Ricoh

    we've only got 3 home games left haven't we? Can't imagine, should we play them elsewhere, the attendance will drop off a cliff. The novelty factor will probably draw a few in.

    Reading all this and have not got a clue?

    Could well do but you have to think there would be a tipping point where they would lose the support they have at the moment. They are people who need votes after all, if public opinion swings against them to any great degree as they could be seen to be deliberately stopping the club moving back...

    Non-Operating Subsidiary

    Would imagine you could transfer whatever you like between your own companies. Think the only thing that was tied to a particular company is / was the lease. Don't really see on what grounds ACL could challenge it but I'm far from an expert! It may come down to if ACL have a clause that says the...

    Did Southampton try the same trick?

    But normally you would have players not being paid, tax not being paid, staff laid off etc. that's not happening at CCFC. My suspicion would be the only debt this company in admin holds is to ACL. Not saying they would get away with it but they could def make an argument for it and quite a...

    Is the court case on or off?

    local radio chap who was on the train to London has come back again. said he's spoken to SISU and nothing happening tomorrow now. wouldn't take that as 100% confirmation tho, things seem to be changing fairly quickly!

    ssn reporting Sisu have found an alternative ground in the West Midlands for our ...

    no point people getting worked up about something that hasn't happened. SISU may well offer transportation to any other ground at least for this season and refunds for those that can't make it. think what happens to ST holders who can't make a game is not likely to be at the top of the priority...
