    we support the groundshare - sign here

    If SISU could show a business plan where this all works out for the best then maybe I could take moving for 3 years but I can't see this just being for 3 years. Be lucky to have planning permission by then. Think we'll be looking at nearer to 10 years than 3. And there doesn't seem to be a...

    First game of the season

    If I remember correctly there's a hill behind the stadium, if everyone stood there you could see some of the game and the players would be able to see that we were still supporting them.

    Will Thursday's big news be a ground share with the Cobblers...

    What happened to not being allowed to announce any ground share until we are out of admin. Surely Fisher wasn't just making that up as other deals had fallen through and we had nowhere to play.

    What is our team line up at the moment?

    think we'll be closer to relegation than promotion this year. if baker and / or clarke are sold, either now or in Jan, or get a knock that keeps tham out for a while where are the goals coming from? in fact more than a couple of long term injuries and we could have problems. of course if, and...

    Will Thursday's big news be a ground share with the Cobblers...

    could be a cost issue, maybe it's cheaper to share Northampton than get Nene Park back up and running?

    a silly question..,

    there have been teams who have moved mid season before apparently. can't see the FL saying no to it. SISU will present it as let us move or we can't finish the season. unless the FL grow a set they will just let Tim move wherever he wants.

    Pkh

    Problem is it's not being presented as an 'if the club want to do this they may increase revenue', it appears that infrastructure investment is being made a prerequisite to purchase (presumably at full market value) a 50% share in a company that is £14m in debt, seemingly about to lose its...

    Pkh

    It doens't seem a great deal to have to agree to regeneration. Ignoring the issue of not owning the freehold (what happens when the lease expires?), a potential new owner would be looking at £14m to pay off the council loan, around £5m to buy out Higgs plus at least that again to buy the council...

    Pkh

    Well given that Cov Rugby club aren't likely candidates can we take from this that ACL are in favour of moving sporting clubs away from their home area? Seems a bit at odds with the uproar around moving CCFC out of the city. not sure what point he's trying to make here, at best there will be...

    Now McSheffery

    That's not what's being said tho is it. If they had announce they'd sold him or he'd agreed to terminate his contract then most people probably wouldn't be that fussed. Although I'm sure people would expres concern that he might not be replaced by a new signing and instead we'll have to make do...

    Now McSheffery

    I didn't say that's what I wanted him to do, I said that's what I'd do if I was him. This is no way to run a club and it could backfire on so many levels. the problems you could have that I can come up with off the top of my head: 1) what if you can't sell them and you've got the majority...

    Now McSheffery

    If I was Sheff I'd just collect the money every week,why shouldn't he? What is he now, 31? So he'll be 33 and looking at retirement by the time this contract finishes. Unlikely to move to a bigger side so when uproot the family and move to another part of the country to play for less money for a...

    IF.....

    That's one of the Puma standards for this year. Most of the players seem to be using last years training kit as it all has city link on it.

    Sky Blues switch home clash with the Robins to Good Friday

    Whole FL program for that day has been moved.

    Released players

    But their claim would be against Ltd which wouldn't exist anymore. Wouldn't surprise me if they're going to try and pull something like this. It would also be a reason thy aren't training with the team "they're nothing to do with CCFC, they don't even train with us" will be the line trotted out.

    The Bomb Squad

    or the players left over will think this squad is so small we don't have to put in any effort and we'll be picked every week.

    Released players

    They can't release them can they unless they pay of the term of the contract? Maybe the players being given the boot have their contracts in Ltd and they're going to try and terminate their contracts if and when they liquidate ltd. if they try something like that I think the PFA will be getting...

    Stupid Decisions by our current owners

    Orange Ken: "we've got a meeting with the council tomorrow" The council: "no you haven't" that wasn't a good sign, the first time the new 'best ever' board was presented to us and the lies were already being told.

    Has the lease actually been broken?

    but how can they claim beneficial ownership and argue everything in linked one minute when it suits them but then when it comes to something like the lease say forget that it's in another company, nothing to do with us!

    Bell - I'm staying

    wonder if this will cause morale problems with the squad. can only go by twitter and fb but they seem a pretty close group of players, can't imagine it will do much for morale if you're mate is being excluded from training. there's nothing to suggest they're troublemakers so surely let them get...
