it's also been super mild this winter may be worse in one way but conversely it's much better in another, any decent well maintained pitch with 1 team on it, undersoil heating (probably without this too) and good drainage easily handles the weather up to now in the midlands.

Great choice of photo.

I went, I was an invited guest in the diamond club though and didn't buy a ticket (someones season ticket who invites guests each game), I wouldn't have gone had I had to pay, im happy that my attendance didn't give a penny to sisu. can argue amongst yourself if I count if it comes down to it.

I don't think im always right, there are thousands of topics I have opinions on that I'm completely happy to accept might not be correct, there are some things though I do know im right on and lately some of these discussions are like debating with the anti vaccine crowd, or the homeopathy...

I didn't write anything inconsistent at all, go back and reread, but yes this forum is making me feel like an arrogant twat, so many people are posting completely illogical things, over and over and over and not learning, this thread is ridiculous, I think most of them especially from grendel...

It depends on your definition of distressed, Were ACL damaged by sisu to the point of being in real trouble? yes are acl are still in real trouble because of this damage? apparently not but I don't know for sure. is acls business still significantly lower than it would have been without sisu...

These are not equal and opposite opinions. SISU attempted too and succeeded in distressing ACL, ccfc leaving has not allowed acl to make more money, if acls results are decent this year they would have been much better with the football club there paying a reasonable rent. All things like this...

paying some of the wages perhaps, but we were desperate and these look to be decent signings, it would be pretty poor negotiating from their clubs if we got what we desperately needed for free. Those clubs benefit slightly, we benefit massivly

quite a turn around fingers crossed my negativity for the rest of the season was misplaced.

A week or so ago Clarke, but would I prefer Delfounseo who presumably wants to prove himself or the Clarke of the last few days who would have been grumpy, pissed off and have fallen out with manager and fans. That said I've not heard of Delfounseo but fingers crossed.

If this were a saturday afternoon team you'd have a point, but it quite possibly is the best deal they can get for a two o clock game on a weekday.

It's because he is misrepresenting it, the money lost by looking after the pitch is happening whatever, the extra costs from these people playing here will almost certainly be significantly less than they are paying acl. So while the total costs to look after the pitch are probably higher than...

if ccfc come back and if acl continue to have other games there during the week and if this negatively affects ccfc (ie the pitch suffers) then I'll criticize acl for it. Until then good for them to do everything they can to stay profitable.

acl, though floodlights wont be used for this, most of the other costs though they keep having to pay whatever to keep the facility going, so getting someone in to use it is obviously sensible, the actual increased costs from letting kids play there a few times is very little and presumably they...

It looks to me like this academy is a business, they are presumably paying to play at the ricoh in order to get them more exposure, to attract better players and ultimately make themselves more money. Some local team gets little benefit from doing this so wouldn't pay enough. I doubt this is acl...

I didn't say you were, but there is criticism for the ricoh from you, for stealing this academy, if there is indeed an issue with playing at the ricoh for this academy the problem is with footballcv, not the ricoh. It's also the case that this is a residential academy and so there is obviously...

you know full well the costs when you arn't needing to open 4 stands and clean up after ten k people are not remotely comparable. You are just being an ass for no reason.

Sisu are not doing what they think is best for ccfc though, no one with any sence for a second belives thats what ccfc are doing, they have never been able to demonstrate even slightly why this course of action is best for ccfc and we all know how easily we can show it not to be in our best...

I'm not defending this, I'm just responding to everything I think is rubbish, I think it's irrelevant, I don't know the situation at all but there is absolutely no reason at all to think the academy are doing anything but what's best for themselves and their kids, the fact that they train north...

your posts in this thread are a joke, you have no reason to belive they were invited rather than asked to use the venue and even if they were clearly chose to do so because it was best for them and the kids, as I've already said they train much closer to Coventry than Northampton, though the...
