Yep, a good read. Not sure that the JR going against the club would result in any FA punishment though.

I can't see the Academy moving before an adequate replacement is found/built. If the club can build one then that's great, but I doubt there's money around for that when a cheap rental option is available.

I await your input with interest.

I think the grant the club gets for the Cat 2 status is near £500k. It's a good effort to achieve Cat 2 status, to stay competitive we have to able to attract decent youngsters, and not lose them to the likes of Villa and Leicester.

It's a good job Higgs built a nice academy facility for us, and it's a good job they let the us come back after they had originally been left with a repair bill. http://www.ccfc.co.uk/news/article/category-2-status-confirmed-academy-coventry-city-070414-1473669.aspx

I'm pointing out various flaws that I believe to be in the things that you state, it's not an attack, it's arguing a different point of view. Goodnight darling.

They didn't want SISU to meet their advisors, seems fair enough to me. If SISU have questions, pass the questions on. Just saying that what someone else says isn't really an argument, isn't really an argument. I've read all of it, I found PWKH very believable, I found that Deering was on...

Speculation mixed with nonsense. You don't need to have money in an account to show proof of funds. Are you seriously telling us you know the 'way SISU operate'? You think ACL/Higgs/CCC knew that SISU wouldn't be able to meet the terms, a bit weird that SISU thought they could meet...

Frankly, the whole "won't let us speak to their advisors" is a bullshit excuse. What questions did they want to ask? Why didn't they ask Higgs to ask their advisors those questions? It would very easy for Higgs to say we didn't have access to SISU advisors, but they don't bother, because it's...

I read it all, and I believe that Higgs were messed around by SISU. Higgs asked for proof of funds and asked how any future payments would be secured, there were no answers.

See post 67 page 7, Bennets Afro kindly posted the transcripts. Day 3 at the end shows the judges reasoning and verdict.

Who decides on the people to be questioned? It seems Higgs had all the main players on the stand, and others I'd never heard of. I think SISU just had Deering who was on maternity leave for plenty of the bits they wanted to talk about. She was asked about things Fisher did or didn't say or do...

No one should ever be allowed to use the phrase 'nil-all draw'.

haha, I still can't quite figure out whether SISU know what they are doing or not. It's still a massive gamble on their part to keep spending their investors money in the hope of getting something out of the JR, but I guess they are the happier ones tonight.

No 1 for me.

It seems to be a pretty generous thing of SISU not to claim for costs, if someone brought a case against me that a judge decided should not have been, I'd be pretty peeved that I was out of pocket. Maybe others were right and this was just a way of getting more documents out in the open, and...

G, which bits were you already aware of?

Mr G, you know you just might be right about the importance of pies in football. Pukka Pies FC was set up in 2013 by a group of young enthusiastic Pukka Pie employees. As a well-established company with a great reputation for healthy living, the team were hungry to accommodate plenty of...

Judge thought the counterclaim was over the top and had no merit, some people believe SISU always knew this and just wanted more evidence out in the open. PWKH didn't tie a balloon on Fisher's car, but he did put one under a windscreen wiper, importantly it was partially deflated. Simon...

Yep, and completely without merit.
