Very Interesting point/summary, especially with Otium 'taking over' etc.

Hang on, fisher is chief exec of the club...there's no-one above him in the structure to employ him other than the owner - sisu. So he is employed by them to run the football club

Indeed....

Maybe sisu end up 'battering' people in court with loads of expensive lawyers doing their work for them because actually they are pretty shit at business stuff, like due diligence, and seeing the value of their customers...

Mark my words, Seppala makes the decisions at CCFC. Fisher and labovitch are her stooges, as disgraceful as they have been individually.

Meanwhile CCFC slide down the football pyramid.....

Or pay 100k a month rent....

It's my understanding that in certain meetings between the parties, whoever was in there from CCFC/sisu were taking direct instructions from JS (Skype/text maybe?) Which is rich when you imagine fisher kept bemoaning how Paul Harris etc didn't have authority to discuss freehold sale in meetings...

And when the negotiations broke down, they tried a different tactic, by withholding rent to try and send acl into admin.....

Gives them more credence as witnesses, especially with jr coming up.

A Hostile takeover is what sisu were surely trying to start by approaching Yorkshire bank themselves were they not? As opposed to sensible adult conversations/negotiations over buying the share

CCC under no legal obligation I assume to tell sisu about negotiations over a mortgage for a council owned property?

Sisu wanted to buy the debt, council did it instead to keep Ricoh as a council asset. Sisu pissed off. Start of legal stuff and nasty tactics and getting personal.

I'd love to say dirty tactics, but when the evidence is there and clear (and perhaps favours the prosecution or, in this case the Higgs charity) all the barristers have is to discredit the witnesses.

I suspect they'll use anything they can to try and paint a picture of everyone but themselves being untrustworthy and underhand, and that they are 'poor sisu being bullied'

Belize case something to do with interpretation of contract law and stuff like that. Belize communications. Without reading into it too much it might be something to do with the various elements that are CCFC/sisu and their various connotations and how it relates to the contract?

1 The Ricoh Arena (0.5 miles) Home To: Coventry City (former ground) 2 The Oval Ground (2.1 miles) Home To: Bedworth United 3 Highfield Road (2.5 miles) Home To: Coventry City (former ground) Hence was well chuffed when Ricoh was built and we played there.

Yet was the company registered with the golden ticket to play in the football league...

Because we are still owned by the same company, because of the way assets were moved between companies prior to the admin, debts/loans weren't written off, and all the admin process was for was to break the lease.... We'll never know for sure, but had the admin gone ahead under the original acl...

Good luck with that....but I'll hazard a guess as a possible response... "It's all highs charity/acl/CCC/sky blue trusts (delete as appropriate) fault. We've carried out normal business practice in the best interests of the football club that needs to own its own stadium"
