Of course I forgot about you not wanting to upset the poor Wasps people.

The Trust want the club to negotiate with parties to secure future of academy and stadium - sensible suggestion. But in the same breath they won't align themselves with the club which surely is the most obvious of things to do. It comes across as contradictory.

So we're liquidated, SISU leave, we are in Conference Sth B league or whatever.. And it will be 'balanced out'??

You would if all these supposed people came flooding back once SISU left. So you are in fact right...

Been saying this for ages... It should be a given.

The last statement they released was good. This is like the ramblings of a madman. It does sound like someone's been bringing up the 'fan owned club' line again.

As a head of maths I can tell you how hard it is to recruit any maths teachers that actually have Maths as part of their degree. We are lucky we have a decent team of maths specialists, but recruiting to replace often takes 6 adverts before you even get applicants.

Of course yes - Joy is at home bricking it that she might not her 2 weeks in the Algarve if the attendances don't go up. Lay off the Kool-Aid for a second.

Here's s crazy idea - we could get more fans to attend games and increase that budget significantly.

Not saying it doesn't happen at very high level but at the level we are playing at very few and far between. HMRC have done loads of work to close this loophole down.

That's not correct... They are contracted by a single company for the significant majority of their work so are forced to be registered as employees. Different to golfers or tennis players that are effectively freelance and 'work' at different events. Money earned through image rights...

Why would they leave? The club pretty much pays for itself, bar them probably fronting up some money now and again for cash flow purposes which they get back. In the unlikely event that we could fluke our way to the Prem, then a massive windfall awaits.

TBF we didn't really have an idea of the impending shit storm

I think Mowbray has been holding out on the hope that he will get better value for his money waiting till last minute. Whether this happens or not remains to be seen...

Funding stream like ticket income goes to CCFC. SISU don't have this money. SISU are owners of CCFC overall. A bit like having a parent company of a brand. The brand takes the income it produces.

I never said it was to improve - the current attendances would suggest the income keeps the club afloat. Increased income from attendance would have a positive impact on TM's budget for players. It won't be going to SISU.

It's funding CCFC not SISU... What part of that don't you get?

No they are taking CCC to court for JR2 - Wasps are an interested party.

We have no idea if JR2 has legs - only really surmising. Even if it did the impact on Wasps is null. They still have the stadium on a 248 year lease. The impact would be on CCC maybe having to compensate - but again nothing on Wasps. That's why it doesn't stack up. Their stance is a conscious...

50k doesn't even pay a year contract for a player at 1K a week. What kind of player do you get at that price? Something that probably doesn't get mentioned is the fact that pay costs aren't just player wage... It's pension contribution, NI contribution both have which have increased a lot...
