isn't it a never ending cycle tho? we've cut costs this year presumably based on income last year. now that income has dropped due to the team not performing and attendance dropping so we sell more players in January to balance the books again and make ourselves relegation certs. won't next...

roughly what time was he on, wouldn't mind giving it a listen on iplayer.

it has been a while since we had a statement. think they must have been worried that some of what Brody said made sense and could even have been true. wouldn't want the board to be associated with anything like that. what odds on a statement after the loan windows about how hard we tried to...

I think if someone else takes over AT deserves a shot but it may be wise to bring in someone experienced to work alongside him. To be honest they should probably do this at the moment, Bobby Gould would probably do it for nothing!

Another one out of the revolving door http://www.ccfc.co.uk/page/NewsDetail/0,,10269~2516280,00.html

I would imagine it would be a situation like Southampton where SISU will try and argue that the company that have gone into admin is nothing to do with CCFC but the league are unlikely to stand for that and will take the points off them anyway. What I'm not understanding is that if all the...

been looking online as well, doesn't sound the easiest place to get to! Both the park and ride or the train seem to mean a long wait. Odd that these gounds get built with seemingly no plan on how to get people there!

Well the sticking point is presumably that SISU want that £40m back. The £50m for the stadium wouldn't be money you're throwing away would it as it's buying you an asset? Surely then you own an asset worth roughly £80m (based on the valuation of £40m for the councils half which seems to be...

Could the contracts have a negative effect? Lets say for example Hoff's group takes over but they think several of the players who have been signed to contracts aren't up to the job and they want to get rid of them. Isn't that now going to cost them more money as they have longer contracts to...

out of interest say CCFC were to buy both Higgs and the councils share of ACL and therefore own 100% of the leasehold what would the value of the freehold be? not that i'm expecting that to happen any time soon, just curious.

they'll be in the home end, not like there's a shortage of tickets! they wouldn't know how many they'd sold in advance tho.

I've got a similar problem. Ever since I moved from Cov I've always planned my visits to my parents to coincide with home games and taken my Dad who has been going for over 50 years. The other day when I was on the phone to him he told me not to bother getting tickets for him anymore as he can't...

Thorns on the lowest wages in the championship, anyone experianced will want a lot more. Can't see that money coming from SISU. Plus any manager coming in would want money to improve the squad.

stopped taking her seriously when she compared going to the Ricoh to going to Old Trafford or Anfield!

Does raise the question that if theres a league wide ban in place as our lot claim why have Blackburn fans been able to display their banners for the last 3 games?

Depends who we sell and for how much. Saying the squad isnt good enough is not the same as saying every player could leave with no fuss. That said theres probably only juke, sammy and keogh who would get into most championship teams so we should be looking to hold on to them and if we're to have...

it wouldn't make the ground worth less as we pay rent and assuming there no clause to say if we go up or down the rent changes then it's a non issue. The arena would see a drop in other areas (catering etc) if there were less people there but I would guess at the moment that's a pretty small...

don't think we need to worry too much about that!

be worth seeing if you can get a mention on talksport tomorrow. keys is on from 10-1

The problem is it's difficult to compare against other sides as it doesn't really mean much. More telling is the increasingly rapid decline in our own attendances. Looking at average figures since the Ricoh opened (from ccfc.co.uk) you get this: 2005 / 06 21,301 2006 / 07 20,342 2007 / 08...
