    Bradford City Match Thread

    I would guess he thought the ball was going to come through quicker and reach him in the box. Once he'd started charging out he was committed to it. Either that or his brain switched off for a minute!

    New club shop

    Can't answer that unless you know the terms of the lease, could be they've signed something short term or with an easy out. Guess one giveaway could be how much it looks like they've spent on a refurb. If it's been done on the cheap it's more likley to be short term, if it looks like they're...

    How much will a new naming deal be worth at the Ricoh

    Lets be honest by 2025 we'll either be back playing at the Ricoh, have a new ground or most people will have given up. Can't take another 12 years of this!

    Champions League to BT Sport 2015

    This has the potential to be another ITV Digital doesn't it? Chap from Sky was saying BT bid more than twice Skys offers. Given that BT have a lot less subsribers (and that number will surely drop when the freebies stop) and some games, inc the final, are free how are they going to make their...

    Did City Lose their Database as well as the ground?

    I was getting them but unsubscribed as they would just make me annoyed when they were trying to sell tickets / hospitality for Sixfields. Strangley I have started getting them from West Ham and Pompey and no matter how many times I unsubscribe they don't stop!

    Question for PWKH

    The 10 years is indeed a FL regulation which I think is why ACL proposed a 10 year rolling contract at £150Kpa. In theory had SISU accepted that they could have walked away when a new ground was ready and pay off the remainder of the contract. From a financial standpoint that would leave them a...

    The fa cup

    would be great to get to the third round and draw a big prem team at home just to see how SISU respond if there's a game that could sell out the Ricoh.

    2 questions

    why are we still under an embargo if the accounts have been filed by Otium? FFP? Have to pay money owed to ACL? Have to wind up the old company? Does anyone actually know the reason?

    Coventry Transport Museum - Racists

    Quotas and positive discrimination has never seemed to me a great way to solve the problem as the person in the job will always have 'you only got the job as you're asian / african etc'. Might be worth a call to them to see why it is this way, could be that they've had funding for the role which...

    MK Dons Away

    I get mails from Pompey and West Ham despite never having had dealings with either of them and repeatedly unsubscribing!

    How to purchase New Home Shirt?

    I don't think that password reminder has ever worked! Back when we had staff and you could phone someone up I had to ring them and get someone to reset my password and mail it out to me!

    Was it or wasn't it?

    I assume you mean SISU and you're right they haven't but they keep claiming they need to take ownership of the freehold for the benefit of CCFC which is at best very doubtful but what PWKH's comment show is that even if they did have the freehold, as we've all suspected for a while, it brings no...

    How to purchase New Home Shirt?

    If you're using IE with the online shop, as I have to on my work PC, you will have an absolute nightmare - nothing works. Worth giving Firefox a try if you don't fancy going up to Lockhurst Lane.

    Was it or wasn't it?

    This is where SISUs plan is doomed to failure. CCC can't let them have the freehold at below proper value which means SISU then can't sell it on at a profit or mortgage it for an amount greater than it has cost them to purchase. Coupled with the fact that the freehold brings no income I still...

    Was it or wasn't it?

    Can someone explain to me how Otium could legally agree a rental deal for Sixfields while we were in admin but it was illegal for them to agree a rental deal to play at the Ricoh. The deal does not have to be part of the CVA, it just had to be agreed to prior to ACL agreeing to the CVA, as far...

    Was it or wasn't it?

    Didn't TF also say to Sky Sports News after the first CVA meeting regarding the 150K offer that he hadn't seen that coming and would need time to consider it or words to that effect. Did he then hit his head and forget it had ever happened or was he not part of Otium that day as well? To be...

    Will A Deal Be Done Before Next Season?

    If / and when that happens the FL seem to have backed themselves into a corner. What do they do in 3 years time when SISU tell them there's not actually a stadium? Kick us out of the league? Hows that going to look when all along everyone apart from SISU has been telling them the new stadium...

    Was it or wasn't it?

    Exactly, people are making this out to be way more complicated than it actually is. An offer was on the table, unless ACL have specifically revoked the offer as the other party involved, or any other party interested, you would assume the same offer to be available until told otherwise. I can't...

    How much rent, fees and interest is acceptable ?

    which is hardly unreasonable. you can't expect ACL to make the offer unconditionally and allow SISU to continue trying to put them out of business through the JR process!
