Are you saying that ticket prices are set at a cost of sale basis?

Mid week ticket prices there are £9 for adults. The club couldn't have took more than £18k in last night. Difference of over £190k to what they could have had at the Ricoh.

You mean the Cva that was based on made up information?

I very much doubt we will be seeing those sorts of numbers. Personally I'm pleased we won tonight, but it doesn't really mean all that much to me. Until were back at the Ricoh what happens on the pitch isn't all that important.

How much do you think they made from selling pies tonight? Your basically saying that sisu left the Ricoh because they were annoyed. There is no business case to be play in in Northampton for the next 5 years. That is not logical. If they are deliberately willing to run the club at a...

Geoffrey Robinson really is an arse.

Just a hunch, but that interview suggested to me if sisu put in a bid of £25m on the ground then it would be seriously considered by the council. It would be naive to think Ainsworth and Ann Lucas don't talk.

Good point the op makes. The pathetically low attendance is the silent majority talking. The sort who doesn't protest or set up groups. The life blood of our club.

The only bit I seen was the soft threat from the minister that the FL has to get itself sorted.

As chiefdave says that was before the restructured loan with the council. Within that set of accounts the club also missed two rental payments if my memory serves me right? I think you might be over estimating how much they make off F&B's. Didn't OSB show it was probably no more than about £50k?

Only caught the end of it.

Not really. Made just under £1.1m with the club paying a rent of £1.2m. That £100k could be easily recuperated over the course of a year through alternative events.

Sometime next month I think

Their second question has everything to do with Sisu. Unless you think Ann Lucas should have the authority to force CCFC in to agreements?

Surely you want your council leader to show some emotion to it? Otherwise its just another Peugeot/GEC/Ericsson that has left the city. If there's no emotion involved, then surely the council should act in the way it did when these left?

I think Joy must have charmed the dashing, brave Journalist. Perhaps the deal was if he helps her, then she will let him dab his quill in her ink pot?

Would you prefer it we called them a pay day loan company? The other alternative name for them is the Investment Refund Account, or IRA for short.

Possibly yes. I just mean I don't think the council will say much if anything before the JR.

I think most of us would support that as an idea. Get the council to say publically what they would be willing to do in order for the club to come back. However I can't help but think that sort of message would be more effective after the JR.
