    If this report is accurate then, yes, he would not have been brought in as a PR move, but the news coming out now that he is working on this does seem like calculated move to increase the pressure, PR or otherwise, on ACL. His LinkedIn profile does suggest he is equally experienced at...

    In about 25 years, or whenever the loan is finally paid off - which might be even further away if Yorkshire Bank restructures it to allow ACL to offer CCFC a lower annual rent...

    CCFC Appoint Restructing Experts

    I can't help but suspect this is another play/bluff in rent dispute. The Nene Park threat didn't really work, so now they're lobbing this out there, I'm guessing. Didn't ACL's offer reportedly include giving the club 10 years to pay back its arrears? That would be £120,000 a year or £10,000 a...

    A comparison - Swansea & Ospreys

    I'm going to take a rough stab at this but if anyone can help me out (OSB?), please do so. According to OSB, ACL took out a loan to pay for the £21million lease on the stadium. He states: - "Lease premium was financed by loan from Yorkshire Bank. 31/05/11 that loan stood at £16.2m (and has...

    A comparison - Swansea & Ospreys

    I see where you are coming from but I think it is a case of each club facing different circumstances and that comparing rents on some scale of SISU's choosing is not practical. ACL have offered a substantial reduction. I'd like to see SISU come to the table now rather than talking about moving...

    A comparison - Swansea & Ospreys

    Part of the reason they are paying no rent might have something to do with the stadium being paid for through land sales. As the council spokesman, in the article you drew your facts from, states: “The cost of building the stadium was funded principally by the sale of land in the area and...

    CET: Nene park a potential new "home"

    As Noggin (Welcome by the way! :wave: ) and OSB have pointed out, moving grounds does not stop the winding up order. But say for a minute it did happen... I know little about what happened to Rushden, but reading this article (http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/14034978) it states they were...

    Lord Tim Vader, your devotion to that old religion has not brought about the reduction in rent we were hoping for. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mI8GEidaMMI&feature=youtube_gdata_player :D

    Why ACL's rent calculation could be justified.

    Maybe, and I don't know so I'm just throwing the idea out there, ACL can go from 100k a month to 400k a year because they have agreed a restructuring of their mortgage with Yorkshire Bank to allow them to make that offer. Maybe a couple of weeks ago when Mr Fisher excitedly bleated about how ACL...

    CET: The deal turned down by sisu revealed

    They owe £1.6million, but ACL has only issued the demand for £1.1million (source: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-coventry-warwickshire-20616466) Yes, I imagine the difference is the Escrow. But I think that is empty because ACL drew on it to cover unpaid rent. So if you add that to the...

    CET: The deal turned down by sisu revealed

    Fisher says he wants to pay an average League 1 rent. The current rent is reported to be £1.2million per year, which works out at £100,000 a month. ACL says the club owes £1.6million. Does that mean the club has not been paying the rent for 16 months? If so, surely seeking a League 1 rent was...

    CET: The deal turned down by sisu revealed

    I think you're probably right. Yes, playing budget was probably the more appropriate term for me to use, but that doesn't really change the point that staffing is by far the club's biggest outgoing and therefore the biggest threat to its survival, not the rent at the level offered by ACL last...

    I wonder if they've been listening to this in the SISU offices? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eDHhM5aB_cs or this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UjBwe6IL10o :D (Both should be safe)

    CET: The deal turned down by sisu revealed

    A stadium rent of £400,000 or a wage bill approaching £4.2million - do you seriously think the former would be the financial figure that really threatened this club's survival?! C'mon Torch. :thinking about:

    I think ACL did and that's why they issued the statutory demand!

    CET: The deal turned down by sisu revealed

    So ACL have already moved 67% in the direction of CCFC and yet Sisu, who have moved 0%, believe this only brings them to the starting position for negotiation?! Which will come first, peace in the Middle East or a rent agreement?! :slap:
