According to the agreement both parties signed.

They had to get things done for SISU so that SISU knew what they were buying and Higgs covered the risk of the deal not going ahead with an agreement for SISU to cover the costs involved in otherwise unnecessary work. They put in various clauses to cover the event of it not happening and thought...

No, but that may be SISUs aim and there may yet be some compromise ( unlikely though ).

They thought SISU were paying

Wolfsburg und Hannover VW, Bayer Leverkusen. Don't know the share relationship- if they can hold a maximum shareholding. Controversial, but Leipzig are Bundesliga..

You're right of course, but if they had paid some or all of the amount without court, maybe just maybe, they could have to started to build bridges - they are the ones who needed a stadium and the goodwill of people in Coventry. 30000 in this saga is really peanuts. It is done and dealt, but the...

No. The agreement was that SISU covered the extra costs of due diligence or whatever -with the view to a sale. The clauses were to ensure that SISU paid Higgs for the work even if the sale didn't go ahead. Several reasons for possible failure were listed to ensure that SISU had to pay for the...

The deal that the costs were incurred for never took place - a good starting point I would have thought.

There was an agreement which they both signed. If they knew that it was no longer valid, did they say why? Why did we have to go to court to find out? How much were their costs? At a guess? The time, the stress and the costs to save a share of the original claim plus the bad blood. Was it worth...

No, they should have negotiated and, if that failed go to court. The 200000 counterclaim was a joke though - although most would come up with a counterclaim in such circumstances - the 200000 was probably to raise the stakes by going to a higher court. PWKH - although tbf I don't know if he is...

I am saying that nobody really knew. No sale had taken place. If SISU had asked, maybe they could have negotiated, but they didn't as far as we know. SISU are not in the wrong about the bill. Both sides had lost interest in the sale. Costs had been incurred and they could have shared them - if...

No there wouldn't have been. SISU were asked to pay the bill as agreed. They didn't. If they felt the bill was not justified they could have said so and suggested a compromise as the situation had not been foreseen by either party. Higgs had incurred costs - in good faith - in preparation for a...

Doubt that CA wants to fail at CCFC. Would not look good on his otherwise good CV. More like he has joined a war which he probably cannot understand or understood before he got roped in. He has written books, taught at Ivy League universities and now comes to a bitching match where no-one likes...

yes. did both parties know when they signed that something would happen that wasn't covered? Was there any malice in asking for what appeared on the face of it to be agreed? So they lost a normal claim. What was the 200000 GBP about which the judge said had no chance of succeeding? was that...

yeah like I've moved on despite living abroad for 30 years... I still go when I am back home... I cannot see me moving on in this lifetime despite our owners.

In 10 years time there May not be a SISU owned club to blame..

I think SISU are doing a remarkable job in destroying the club. And that is not ok whether Wasps are doing ok or not.

I suspect that will never happen, but an empty Ricoh would be an embarassment IF that ever happened.

On the other hand, you, like me, like the idea of a Central Stadium ( this is a dream for us both in reality ) in a rejuvenated City Centre more geared to culture and leisure - if I understood correctly. That Will Never Happen with SISUs current stance. Whether you love CCC or not, we ( or...

Don't lose your rag with him. Just point out that this offer was only 25000 pounds more. The history of non payment of Rent, throwing keys on the table, the Counter claim against the charity for 200000 - which the judge said was hopeless -, laughing at PWKH in Court ( was funny, but not clever...
