Yes it would so the conundrum is whether they are right or wrong? I still think they were wrong to take the team to sixfields. What would they be giving ACL if they were playing rent free temporarily anyhow? Support for the Compass groups refreshment stands? A few car park spaces. I believe...

Lets be fair he has said he has the owners support to go ahead and bring players in, the problem is identifying them and getting them to agree. We are a bigger 'sell' these days to any player and wages could be an issue but when he says 'help' he means we need help for the team to continue their...

The last league game I attended was at Sixfields against Orient. It was a Tuesday night and I was over that way on business so I went to see what the fuss was about. Have not and probably will not attend a game again unless it's a playoff game where the reason would to naturally support the lads...

He knows that we could have got a result last night if Clarke had played. Chances were created as always but there was not a recognised striker on the pitch. that's frustration and annoyance with a player who has proven to have misled his manager. Pressley was right to express his anger and at...

Unfortunately I believe this is as wrong as any boycott. By going to games either at 'home' or away fixtures you are showing there is support for the club while we wait around for it to emerge from it's owners stance. Now if you were to simply not go to any games then those owners would have...

Pressley clearly upset by Clarkes attitude since yesterday I suspect. How a player can refuse to play I'm not sure but it would appear that is what happened. He won't play another game for us. I can't blame the player for possibly bettering his career but there is a way of doing that especially...

Put like that it seems so easy doesn't it? So you want to go back to square one?

There are a lot of entrenched positions. What needs to happen is for both sides to reconsider what they have said before, what looks more feasible now and move the process in the right direction which in all honesty has to be the ownership of the Ricoh Arena for the football club. Any owner of...

The Op was that you are SISU and what would you be doing?

I agree with most of that. If we can all be sensible then I see we can all be on the same page. I can't hang around a forum all day or spend time researching to catch up if I have missed something but I would like to know where a formal offer had been made regarding free rent to Otium and what...

It's probably fair to say we all would prefer SISU out! But is it really that simple? So if you were them for a moment, what would you do?

You are right. If SISU build their own stadium they will most likely keep ownership and rent it to the football club. That being said what would stop the football club seeking a better deal from the Ricoh and thereby leaving SISU's stadium empty? I think the most likely outcome is SISU build in...

So you are saying the council had every right to own the freehold to the stadium?

I think he is an intelligent and well informed poster. Some refuse to see past the first hurdle if it's not an opinion they share.

I don't disagree with you Prefect. My point really is about the history involved around this whole situation that makes the case for both sides to consider their positions and while I agree most events are of the clubs making as you say, there are mitigating circumstances that can't be ignored...

These are the common misconceptions. The 'offer' you talk about has not been made. Prove to me that any such formal offer was made to Otium and I will take it back.

You can't keep looking at it retrospectively all the time. The council had a choice and they made a decision that cost us 10 points. That inevitably would cause the football club further distress affecting the chances of this campaigns success which if we were promoted, give the council more...

the 30m I mentioned was just a an example knowing that's the figure SISU have more than likely invested overall since coming here. The rest is paper debt. The theory is just to show that buy one at the inflatable value so you can get the other (Ricoh) at low value but overall you have a deal...

that American could have bought the interest of CCFC off SISU quite easily had he been so inclined. Lets just say 30m and SISU would have left in a hurry. He then could have walked in on the Ricoh (pretty much clear at the time it was backed by the council and ACL) for the valuation and hey...

I think we might win this after that fine second half at Arsenal.
