But if 50% is still more than you can afford, you'll end up on the street anyway. So accepting will actually not improve your situation. 50% is just a figure ... it has no relevans without knowing if the club is actually capable of paying £600k/yr. Plus we don't know what other terms are on the...

It is the club that is in breach of the contract - nobody else.

No Otis, you're not cynical - that may well be one reason they refuse. I wrote a few weeks ago that ACL might have an interest in dragging the negotiation until the escrow fund was used up as a way to make sure they got the £500k in it. Now the fund is empty and a new agreement will have to...

Well, I simply fail to see how I could have written my post more neutral. Nowhere do I put blame or shame, nowhere do I take side. On the contrary, I point to a neutral outsider as a viable solution. I specifically use the term 'the club' and not 'the owners' or 'sisu' because it's the club...

It would be interesting to know what kind of offer they have presented to the club, but we'll probably never know. Unless the club feels the 'new rent' will contribute to bring balance between costs and income, I don't think the club will accept. Bring in a mediator and bring this circus to...

Didn't somebody on here post something about the club should have a fixed 'blueprint' of the formation and style of play? That this blueprint should apply to all levels in the club and that players and managers should be recruited according to their skills and ability to fulfill their role in...

So we have two parties who won't bulge. Like two teenage girls stamping their feet in anger: I won't! Oh yes you will! No I won't! You will, you bitch! I can't help wonder if ACL have stretched negotiations till a time when the escrow fund ran out. At least they got their £100k per month for...

Did he really 'resign'? But Ranson would say that, wouldn't he? Don't forget he lost his baby ... Prozone ... when he left, so that makes it quite unlikely he did so by his own choice. He was most likely forced away by sisu who simply stopped the influx of money. I would love to read their...

I think sisu would argue that they trusted Ranson ... a former pro footballer and successful businessman still related to the industri. And he put up his own money to show how much he believed in the idea. Ranson failed to deliver and last year he was kicked out. It's what has happened since you...

2009 and 2010 were under Ransons reign. He failed to bring down wages to match our income. After sisu took over the board last year they hit the breaks. Was it two signings last summer? AT clearly had to stick to a wage limit and accept it was being reduced further. Wages were still much too...

I don't think we are losing millions a year - that's old figures. We don't know what it will be this season.

We were at war with the germans ... we are not at war with sisu. Well, maybe you are.

Coundonskyblue says 'with sisu the club has no future'. He's wrong. It's without sisu the club has no future. The rent is disporportional ... way too high. Sisu have over the past 1½ year done their best to balance costs and income and the rent issue seem to be the last item on the cost...

Ah, so you support him for 90 min at games, but the rest of the time you rubbish him here even though you admit he may read this forum? http://www.skybluestalk.co.uk/threads/18780-77-households-have-internet-access

Some of your punts are actually quite funny. Like this one.

Excellent reply. You sarcastically make the point you already are fully aware they are reading your ... ehmm witty? ... posts and are happy with that. I was merely on a fishing expedition and it seems I got all the scavenger fish in the pond.

Source: http://www.ons.gov.uk/ons/rel/rdit2/internet-access---households-and-individuals/2011/stb-internet-access-2011.html This means there is quite a good chance that AT and his players have internet access and if they have they are probably reading this forum. I am just letting you know...

I do wonder if Thorn is an adaquate manager. I simply don't know - yet. His job is to primarily to setup the style of play, pick the players for his system and make sure every player is motivated and prepared to run the extra yards ... chase the lost courses. Up till now he really have only...

No, it's Richard Keys

If this is true then it may be time to bring in a mediator.
