You're right - sisu are terrible at PR. They could really learn from ACL: AEHC would cooperate with the Council in a public relations campaign designed to paint the conduct of the Council, AEHC and ACL in as good a light as possible and to discredit the SISU Group so far as...

MK have won their last 4 away games ... and lost their last 4 home games. If they lose this one their dream of play off is just about over. If this was not a ccfc game I would go for a draw, but for this prediction I will go for 3-1 to us. It's been a while since we last scored three and I hope...

Do you actually know how much or are you just trying a random number?

You just did.

But that is not how they think. I know because I have been head of a struggling company and believe me any penny is taken into consideration. The reasoning you advocate and the way you argue how the number decreases if paid yearly, monthly, weekly ... that's the way many people think. Those...

Unless he was referring to legal eagles ...

Alright, you argue that if it wasn't because of Higgs the club would have been eradicated. Or something like that. Fine, I get that. But please remember that sisu wasn't here when the Ricoh was planned and build. It wasn't sisu who sold to Higgs. So why take that out on them? After sisu came in...

I may be wrong, but I think Wingy want Higgs to be paid what they initially invested - maybe plus interests. Regardless of factual/actual valuation of the shares worth.

I can't help think - but I may be wrong and will of course apologize if necessary - that your problem with sisu is from a political stand point? That you despise the capitalistic hedge fund? It goes with the suggestions within the higgs vs sisu case documents where it is suggested CCC ran away...

And ebola has broken out again. That's not good either. But that was not the subject. We were discussing ACL IIRC.

No I don't see it. Please bear with me I am an old man and it's Friday. How were Higgs getting ripped? I genuinely want to know.

Yes, and sisu agreed immediately while higgs (at least their barrister) had a hard time come to the same conclusion.

It was just that, wasn't it - an offer. The prime offer was for sisu to buy it alone and discharge it. On top of that pay Higgs £5.5m for their shares (yes, £4m in instalments over 10 years). In return for an increase of the ACL lease to 125 years and a much reduced rent. Why is that such a bad...

Yes, but before you get to enthusiastic you should realise it was Higgs barrister who had trouble agreeing: MR JUSTICE LEGGATT: You take instructions and I will sit 7 here unless anybody asks me othe rwise. (Pause) 8 MR THOMPSON: My instructions are si mple...

Alright - I stand corrected. But it doesn't change the fact that it was necessary to make the change for CCC to loan the money to ACL.

Not guilty your Honour.

One thing I find curious is that PwC advises Higgs that their shares are pretty worthless and they should take whatever cash they could get upfront. That advise was based on their valuation of ACL being worthless and in serious trouble if the bank debt was not discharged. The HoT with CCC and...

What was the scale? What would we have to pay each year when in the Championship? Did that scale include access to matchday income?

I don't think they could have changed it. One thing that has come to light during the Higgs vs Sisu case is that all parties involved plus Deloitte and PriceWaterhouseCooper agree ACL were not in a good financial position. Take away £1m yearly rent and ACL would have ended up in serious trouble...

I think they will shortly be asked to leave it.
