I don't think SISU have a choice but to leave at the bottom of the cycle. The bottom of the cycle will be the split second before they sign the documents that complete the take over of the club. The not selling at the bottom of the cycle ship sailed long ago.

Sheffield United must get promoted from league one every season then. Strange they keep coming up on the fixture list. Money isn't the only factor. Of you're lacking in the other factors you have to compensate with more money. If it's available.

Plenty of clubs have failed even with billionaires and miserably. Rule of thumb is everything has to be right. A toxic environment doesn't promote success. If Bournemouth was a toxic club how many more millions would the billionaire owner had to invest to achieve a double promotion? They have an...

Best point that out to Nick. He's the one saying it takes hundreds of millions not me. I actually forgot about Blackpool but I think we're singing of the same hymn sheet here that there's more than one way to skin a cat so long as it's done correctly. Although I think Blackpool largely fell on...

Has any other club tried? Is there that many other clubs with a situation that could allow it? The nearest comparable situation to ours with what is possible and achievable is West Ham if you look at the basics and don't side track it with talk of 50K season ticket sales, premier league status...

I'm not.

Getting rid of SISU is obviously the first step. Then some stability at every level of the club while reinstating some pride at every level of the club. Promotion out of this league is going to be a big help in all of that. Especially pride. Consolidate in the championship and unless we have a...

That is answering the question. There is nothing comparable between us and West Ham. Including the owners. We can look to them for inspiration though. They have a rental agreement that gives them access to revenues including naming rights. Why can't we use that as a blueprint in our own rental...

Forest have been mismanaged at every level for decades same as us. Can't say I know too much about Brighton to be honest but I don't think it's unreasonable to look at clubs like Burnley and say that promotion isn't possible even with limited revenue streams (Burnley's limiting factor being...

As is West Hams owners.

Depends on the other details of a rent agreement really. If it was stepped based on league it might be worth their while. A bigger share of the income should in theory increase our chances of promotion and if the rent agreement would land them a big fat juicy bonus every season we're in the...

Has there been any club ever who's fan's have purchased enough tickets to pay for a premier league push? How much would ticket prices need to be to do that? How big would a grounds capacity have to be to do that? It's investment that ultimately get most if not all teams to the premier league...

How many hundreds of millions have Burnley spent to get there? Twice in a very short period? You're talking about a town with a premier league club that has a population about the size of Rugby. There's always more than one way to skin a cat with the right thinking, application, acumen and...

I don't doubt that. Like most clubs that drop out of the premier league and don't bounce back quickly it will be the wages that will make them crash and burn. The stadium deal won't help unless they continue to sell out most home games but it's the wages that cripple clubs that come down ultimately.

West Ham don't lease 365day, they lease match day only. Not even allowed to train on it. They have shop and offices there that they have 365day access to but they do get access to all match day revenue and a share of the the naming rights. This is the basis that the club should be looking at as...

And more FIND A COURSE | COVENTRY UNIVERSITY We could always try sending TF on one of the marketing courses ;)

I heard it wasn't going to be a fully synthetic pitch until the SU pitch invasion ;)

OK Nick. This is clearly one of those occasions where it's not worth wasting my breath with you. Anyone who speaks out about our situation either knows nothing or they'll do anything to put the boot in. We'll leave it there and I won't waste my afternoon.

Briefed? Are we supposed to believe that people who operated and in some cases still operate in the football business and have a connection to CCFC are not aware of the well documented problems at the club until the CT contact them? Do they all retire from playing and go off grid living in a...

What's wrong with the CT doing that? Are you not interested in what people with a connection to the club think?
