    Adminstration or smoke screens takeove

    I think you will find that the losses is around 500K per month - not per week. That's still amounts to 5-6mio/yr. Ranson needed to sell off Westwood and Gunnar last Summer. He failed and that made a huge difference.

    SISU - Love 'em or hate 'em?

    I've been on this subject from my first post on this board - in short: SISU are the owners who placed a bet on the advice (businessplan, budget, cashflow forecast etc.) of Ray Ranson. Ranson ran the show for three years as chairman and acting CEO. His budget quickly failed and SISU had to put...

    Leonard Brody

    So now that we are finally being sensible about Brody, maybe we are ready to accept the board as well? And down the line we may even get to appreciate our owners ... SISU?

    King agrees terms with brum

    Yeah - they are just as divided on the Brum board as we were here just before he signed for us. I love this joke: So Marlon King was jailed for failing to score at a club. Which one? Wigan, Hull, Middlesbrough?

    Marlon King Poll

    I tried to locate where Brody actually says the club have offered a 3yr deal, but all I can find is that the club have met MOST of Kings demands. Please point me to the source of your information.

    Marlon King Poll

    Have anyone tried to do some calculation? What is the difference between a 10K/week 2 year contract and a 15K/week 3 year contract? If you were MK and your agent told you - you can re-sign for Coventry or you can go to Birmingham ... the difference is £1.3mio, what would you do? If you were...

    When the mild hysteria over King has passed....

    I believe Brody only told on Twitter that there would be a story in the papres next morning. That story was Thorn telling about the verbal agreement. How the CT got hold of the story is another matter ... as they don't reveal their source it doesn't have to come from Thorn, but could come from...

    80% of £700mio = £560mio ... more than 80%, so we round up = £600mio in the Championship. Our debt is £40mio of £600mio = 6,67%. Truely a big, big chunck.

    I am not the least worried about the £40mio in debts as most is owed to SISU. What worries me more is the yearly deficit. If we can't manage to earn more than we spend we will be in real trouble. But that requires we sell off players when they are worth good money and then find and breed new...

    CCFC £40 million in red

    You didn't answer my question. But I guess success depends on the expectations. I would say he was pretty sucessful until 1999, when he had the best players available in Sweden, Italy and Portugal, but after that he never really lived up to the expectations. He is at best a 'has been' ... but...

    CCFC £40 million in red

    Oh but we do .... have players to sell. And most are quite young and starting to make a name for themself. Turner, Keogh, Cameron, Hussey, Juke, Deegan, Clarke ... Every time a star leaves he makes room for someone else to become a star. When the best player is off another will become the best...

    CCFC £40 million in red

    The account notes clearly state that the club do NOT pay any interest on the loan to SISU. And to be fair - Nobody on the board or management EVER told us the club were free of any debts - only that there were no debts to external parties like banks. There is a difference.

    CCFC £40 million in red

    I really admire your stamina OSB! But I fear that your efforts are all in vain - most fans no nothing about finances, investments, ownership and management hierarchy, yet they insist on pointing out the hero's and the villains off the football field. I would like to add one simple fact to the...

    Finally...the accounts

    Actually that makes a lot of sense to me. First - When the loan is due SISU will adjust the interest rate to protect the value of the loan. Second - Should new investors come in with a substantial amount (without buying out SISU completely) the loan can be converted to shares (equity) and...

    Fans vote in the Boardroom

    The fans ... you mean you? Or do you mean me? Or the one who shouts in frustration? Or the one who speaks softly in resignation? Or ... The idea raised by Brody holds some positives, but in reality we - the fans as a group - may end as hostages. They clearly want to move a bit closer to us to...
