Were you bothered when the Ricoh hosted rugby games?

There have been other games there.

Can you let us see a copy of the business plan as well?

Maybe you should organise a game, who do you think would make a good team from people on here?

How would they have kicked us out?

I think Stephen Fry gave a good response to this sort of outrage..... 'It's now very common to hear people say, "I'm rather offended by that", as if that gives them certain rights. It's no more than a whine. It has no meaning, it has no purpose, it has no reason to be respected as a phrase. "I'm...

Thanks for that, very enlightening. This contract, do you reckon it spells out what either side needs to do if they want to break the contract. I reckon it does, and I suspect it would say the player would need to put in a transfer request if he wanted one. So it would appear all is well on the...

It's a good job he is a journeyman, otherwise we may never have singed him.

Are you against all players leaving, or those that end up getting paid more, or those that end up going from club to club?

Good one. So you seem to be saying the 45,000 people that turn up to Sixfields have the right to call any ambitious young chap 'greedy bastard' if he should dare to get a new job. Surely that should be chanted at all our players that have left another club to join ours. Unless of course it's...

Does anyone's former workmates chant 'one greedy bastard' at anyone on here after they've left to get a better job?

And you believe that? You think they're unable to overcome their trust issues even though it costs them millions per year? It's not like they wouldn't have a contract, that if broken, they could sue over. I find it more incredible that ACL are willing to trust a company like SISU, who do you...

I agree it's crazy, I wonder why they are so bothered.

A bit odd that they are happy to be tenants in Northampton, but couldn't possibly be in Coventry.

I'll take that as a no then. So are you still saying SISU's moral stand on state aid only applies when it is in Coventry?

Are you really suggesting the Council have loaned the money to a bank?

I think SISU are keen on upholding morality because I seem to recall Fisher said they were carrying on with the JR because it's wrong for Councils to use their money in this way. He wasn't bothered about it from the clubs point of view because this statement was on a day where the new stadium...

Well if they want to buy the freehold they would need to speak to the owners of the freehold, that's the Council. If they want to buy ACL and have access to the revenues of the stadium, they would need to speak to ACL. Depends whether today is Plan A or Plan B. If Labovitch says the Ricoh is the...

So you think it's not clear, but don't understand why it's hard to grasp. When do you think they will go about it in the correct manner? I am sure about the new stadium, it isn't going to happen. It won't generate any money for them, the interest costs on financing the build would be £1m per...

I didn't know they wanted to purchase the Ricoh, when did they put their offer in? Why do they want the Ricoh when they are already starting to build a new ground, they're even deciding on what colour the seats are going to be so it must be fairly advanced, we've even seen a picture of ground...
