    Transfer policy at ccfc

    Yes we have a team of scouts watching football all round the country, when Pressley came in I think he said there was one scout. Now they have a team of them watching games all over the UK.

    Swindon game

    Swindon bought a lot to the Ricoh the other year, obviously on sky and Monday night will have an effect but I imagine they will still bring decent numbers in comparison with other team in the division. I'd guess around 7-8k in total

    Madine deal hits snags

    Nah the loan was just to get it through and done in time so he could play for the new years day fixture we had that year I think, I think it had already been agreed with Clarke.

    New stadium - Okay, let's just suppose for a moment

    West Ham are paying 2-2.5 million a year in rent apparently but they get all security, police, stewarding and ground maintenance provided for them which is claimed to be worth 2 million a year. There sharing naming rights and other stadium income with the LLDC who are the stadium operators.

    New stadium - Okay, let's just suppose for a moment

    Probably not as much as others but that's a perfect example of what we can't do, if we have a go and it doesn't come off then we just end up with a pile more debt to SISU. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/27224806 AFC Bournemouth post £15.3m loss for 2012-13

    New stadium - Okay, let's just suppose for a moment

    The graph shows our revenue, which was in the lowest 4 when we were relegated. Unrelated to our outgoings in wages or rent. It won't have changed, if we go up we will still have one of the lowest revenues in the league. Yes being a yo yo club is about the best we can hope for

    No, I've consistently said it looks like we're fucked either way.

    New stadium - Okay, let's just suppose for a moment

    The financial figures from the last season in the championship also back it up, so unless the new deal involves a load of revenue streams we don't know about then yes it is proven to be true. And yes that's pretty much what he is saying, the club on its own can't generate the revenue required...

    New stadium - Okay, let's just suppose for a moment

    Fisher said the current model falls over in the championship and the financial data from our years in the championship seem to support that. It's ok though, we will just go for the italia plan of getting 25k+ and back to back promotions and then we be rolling in the money from the premier league.

    No, they played their part but ultimately the blame lies at the feet of the clubs owners.

    New stadium - Okay, let's just suppose for a moment

    I think there would be an attendance boost from SISU leaving, just not back up to the 20k mark (even if we were in the championship)

    New stadium - Okay, let's just suppose for a moment

    Yes they were very happy working with us taking 1.2 million in rent and us paying match costs and not getting a penny in return. ACL and CCC had been crippling the club with the Ricoh rent and agreement years before the litigation started,whoever posted it definitely said 6 million. If we had...

    Which was partly a boost from the Ricoh opening, we were averaging 14-16k in our final seasons at highfield road.

    They have a council which wants to work with the club rather than against them like ours. I was actually browsing the Swansea forums the other week when the Swansea - Ospreys ground share was bought up and there fans are not happy they will be paying to develop a stadium which they don't own...

    Another bumper Ricoh crowd expected for Wasps' home game against Sale Sharks

    Here was me thinking their PR machine was called dongonzalos

    New stadium - Okay, let's just suppose for a moment

    Both were losing money though, Wasps 3 million a year at Adams Park I think and us however much at the Ricoh in the championship.
