As long as we avoid Orient and Bristol City that'll do.

Shouldn't this be a model for all clubs - at a basic level? Investment and withdrawing monies from club... well that's a different aspect, and one that SISU need to think very carefully about if they ever have any intention of making anywhere near the money they have put in back

Are they repeatable?

Think you've underestimated the feeling of the Wasps fans

I think that's actually the one that will give the clearest answer. I think Wasps have it sewn up, and there's bugger all anyone can do about it.

Yeah loads of them aren't there... trouble is they are only good for the council... not for CCFC. They probably want it as it's going for next to fucking nothing, although I believe they are going to struggle to make money out of the Rugby.. will probably be compensated with other revenue streams.

Yes - we have no choice.

I didn't miss what it was about... it was made perfectly clear that SISU's attempts to distress were futile, and the councils loan was not a risk due to the wonderful performance of ACL. 2 seconds later it's gone for fuck all. If you can't see how that doesn't add up it's pointless debating...

They had a simple choice. There was no need to get rid of it so quickly and so cheaply. Or everything they made out in the JR was total bollocks.

I did always state that the Ricoh is a white elephant without CCFC as a part of it. There's no point trying to defend or understand why SISU did not acquire ACL, because it's not possible to. There will always be the question over whether would have been vetoed.. but there wasn't much desire...

Completely irrelevant to the point I was making. If the owners of the club had just decided to take the deal they agreed without fuss, the stadium would never have been sold to anyone else. Maybe the biggest mistake SISU made was not sitting tight and paying the £1.3m for longer.... CCC and...

Lets assume for 1 second that we had never had the rental strike, the club leaving, the legal cases etc - and SISU were happy to pay the rent and the deal in place, and plod along nicely. No money for 'the charity' - no revenue, investment, and all the other spurious reasons you gave just now...

The council CHOSE to sell to Wasps. They didn't have to did they.. unless everything they portrayed about ACL was a lie. It was a perfectly successful business we were told.. which had just managed to get it's anchor tenant back. They should have built the relationship back up with the club...

They are terrible. Reasonable and decent ideas on occasions with the worst execution I have ever seen. You can't dispute the notion that the club has to be self-sufficient, or that the clubs should own (or control at the very least) it's own stadium. The way they have tried to do it was...

What do you expect him to say? They barely get 7000 now where they are.. if the fans boycott anything like as effectively as ours did then they'll be lucky to get 4000 a game. They are not even in Europe this season. They won't even become the richest revenue club in the Midlands. He must be...

It's about the only thing that we could be proud of here.

I don't think anyone that is criticising the council has ever said that SISU were blameless. Trying to blame the owners because the council sold out it's own city.

So you approve of the council in their guise as ACL rejecting the CVA which caused us to lose 10 points, in doing so claiming 'they were acting in the best interests of the club' You approve of the club being charged in excess of £1m per year and having absolutely no access to revenue streams -...

Probably out of said councillors arse...

I agree with you. Now all the fans need to be told clearly and explicitly what this means in terms of CCFC as it is now acquiring that stake.
