    Freehold of The Arena AND all its surrounds?!?

    Yes, that's the key issue now and has been for years - the club must own all revenue streams generated in and around the stadium. No matter who owns the club.

    Freehold of The Arena AND all its surrounds?!?

    And she also said something like: 'The Arena won't be sold anytime soon, I'm sad to say'.

    17 year old george Thomas to get debut against orient

    How old was MacSheffrey when he had his debut? Not long ago we were happy when our promising youngters were sent out on loan at a league 1 club.

    A player told me in the summer that Clarke is on 8k/w.

    17 year old george Thomas to get debut against orient

    Remember when we started a new season with central defense pairing of Cameron and Turner - McPake and Wood on the bench? We won and even kept a clean sheet. Trust the manager - the generel consensus is that he knows what he is doing anyway. So at least reserve judgement till after the match.

    Didn't I read somewhere that they actually tried to open negotiations with ACL very early after take-over, but was turned down flat? In any case - it should have happened as part of the take-over, but evidently time was short. Once takeover was complete ACL had no intensive to negotiate.

    I don't think they will 'pull the plug'. If sisu want out at any point they will simply hand over the keys to ARVO. With 'only' £10m at stake ARVO may be able to put in fresh management, rethink the strategy and maybe get us back to the Ricoh.

    Never say never. But with all trust evaporated I don't think that will happen. If we go back to the Ricoh it will be either because sisu wins the JR or because ccc surrender their stonewall attitude. I wouldn't take a bet on what will happen.

    Well, I too don't care if sisu regain their money or not. But I do care that this club get its finances in check - it's the only way we can survive long term. For that we need to own 'ACL', preferbly at the Ricoh but if that can't happen then a new stadium will have to do. I agree that...

    You cannot in your wildest dreams see the possibility that they were actually forced to move? That their choices were limited to either - lose the club and their investors money, or - stay as tenant in an unsustainable financial position for at least 10 years, or - break the lease and move...

    Of course ML uses spin - just like each and every other stakeholder in this sad melodrama. Even posters on this board uses spin to beef up their stance. Sisu may well lose the JR, but it gives them the platform to make public information that is otherwise protected by NDA's. And that could...

    I know. And I feel for you. But if you do not allow your self to have doubts - you will be stuck. Imagine if the JR reveal that sisu and ccc actually had a joint plan to let the club buy ACL and that it was ccc who reneged on that agreement and that everything following was simply a chain of...

    The JR could reveal a few nasty surprises for you.

    Relieved the club from the super expensive 42year lease?

    TBF sisu have already scrutinized ACL's books (did due dilligence back in 2012) and I don't think it's too difficult for their financial experts to guesstimate where ACL are financially today. ACL have never had access to the SBS&L group's books ... only the accounts which isn't the same. So...

    There are two parts in the final 'settlement' 1) The original sum owed to ACL when entering administration 2) 1 yr lease break (why so little - surely replacing ccfc as tenant will take more than one year?) It's interesting that the 1.5m offer from Otium coupled with a 1yr break compensation...

    I read this as wolves ask to sign him for free ... offering clarke an unchanged weekly wage plus a sign-on fee. Are they nuts or is the report ... ehm ... inaccurate?
