    Thank you to the wife and lads

    Maybe you could thank her by not referring to her as the wife. Inanimate objects get called the. Just a thought.

    sisu buying us out of administration is a good thing

    On a simple level why is the club making annual losses? Income must be greater than expenditure unless we are servicing loans. If so, why did Fisher say we are debt-free? Can anyone give simple income and expenditure accounts? Income £5-6 million? Wages and operating costs 3-4 million? The...

    ACL isn't letting this drop

    If CCC have done well out of it then that money has gone towards services in the city or keeping council tax down. No individual or group has made money, unless you are alleging council house corruption? So, it might not have benefited the club but the club is to blame for not financing it...

    Season tickets: to buy or not to buy?

    Looking forward to a statement from Fisher or Waggott about what the plan is now. Are they going to promise anything at all or just business as usual? We were promised a bounce back budget last summer. Will we be promised investment in the team and if not, will the usual suspects be content...

    Season tickets: to buy or not to buy?

    I think season ticket sales are the crucial indicator as SISU have the money up front. If SISU stay and the squad is not strengthened ( a near certainty) I think season ticket sales could fall from 6500ish down to 4000ish, at the Ricoh, particularly if a campaign like the not a penny more is...

    ACL isn't letting this drop

    One of the few things CCFC have in their favour is access to a top notch stadium in the city to which the club belongs. No they don't own it but they have to see sense and do a deal to play in it as owners or tenants. The rest is waffle. ACL have to be dealt with whether we like it or not. The...

    Brilliant post. Couldn't agree more.

    Season tickets: to buy or not to buy?

    If we are playing at the Ricoh next season, assuming a deal is done, many of us will eventually receive season ticket renewal letters. We therefore need a thread to discuss options Option 1: Not a penny more = stick to total boycott of all tickets and merchandise. Do not renew. Option 2: No...

    Will you support the new (old) owners or give up with CCFC?

    If we do play at Walsall I will be part of a protest group outside not inside the stadium.

    Away days only for me!!!!!

    I think it is still more likely that a deal will now be done to stay at the Ricoh. So the real question will be, will you get a season ticket for the Ricoh with SISU still owners, or will you pay on the gate, or not go at all?

    Keep up US. It's still early in Florida.

    I see operation meltdown is in operation

    No one is in meltdown. It is sad to see some of our fans enjoying the real misery today's outcome has inflicted on many others. No solidarity amongst our own fans, squabbling and name calling. A few need to go back over to GMK where the tumbleweed blows and the 6 or 7 in the self satisfied...

    Sam and Ricoh starring roles

    Sorry, been working and wasting time watching England meander to another defeat.

    Sam and Ricoh starring roles

    Just in case you haven't spotted this, due to it being a family comedy drama on ITV, The programme, "Love and Marriage" on Wednesdays at 9pm features many scenes inside the Ricoh, since 2 of the characters work there and one is Sky Blue Sam. Our boy, Graeme Hawley, is in it too. Very exciting...

    Next Season's Options: What Will You Do

    I think if SISU are gone gates will rise next season, at least initially.

    ACL to allow CCFC Ltd to play for free!

    Still searching the statement for the "only" with reference to the offer being made whilst CCFC is in administration. I interpret it as a no strings offer, if you take it at face value.

    Its not about the rent

    Maybe that's the plan.

    Ricoh this season

    That is not clear from the statement issued. There was no use of the words, "only if". You are assuming that to be true without confirmation.

    ACL make a bid for CCFC Ltd

    Mutton has been replaced by Ann Taylor. I think the council would sell. They would be hard pushed to do a worse job than our current owners, who have set the bar low.

    ACL make a bid for CCFC Ltd

    I have to confess I suggested just this to a family member months ago but was told it couldn't happen. I kept the thought to myself as a result. ACL buying the club and selling it on to approved buyers seems a pretty good idea.
