    Cadbury and Kraft/Mondelez

    Did anyone else see the prog on channel 4 about Cadbury earlier? It's quite shocking how much tax they actually pay, how much of the production has been shifted to Poland and how many promises to parliament they broke.

    Chelsea

    Club online shop delivery times?

    Does anyone know what the normal length of time for delivery from the club shop is if you order online? I placed an order a while back and it hasn't arrived yet? I can't find my customer/order details/number to check on things as I think they may be in my locker at work.

    Food and Beverage revenues

    Can anyone remember what SISU/Tim said about F&B revenue at Highfield Road? I ask because I found a figure from 2003/4 that isn't that massive. http://www.coventrycity-mad.co.uk/news/tmnw/sky_blues_announce_loss_185240/index.shtml

    Did Tim gamble with our place in the league?

    I've thought more about the justification for the groundshare and the whole last minute nature of it which the league had to approve because we had nowhere else to play and could have lost our place in the league if they didn't as we would be unable to fulfil our fixtures. So if there was a...

    I suspect I won't be popular for this but..... Right Tim said that the eagle had flown, we've moved on and we weren't going back to the Ricoh. So how about we don't, ACL said that they can cope without us so let them Sisu are going to build us their own stadium. It's only three years (okay...

    Question for Nick

    Nick, I note from the ACL statement on Saturday that allegedly Mrs Seppala made threats to start legal actions galore until she got the Ricoh at her price.

    FFP and Salary Cap

    So I just read something TF wrote about how if you break the Salary Cap then thanks to FFP we would get a transfer embargo. We haven't filed any accounts yet so aren't we still subject to a transfer embargo at the moment? If we are then are there other penalties (pun not intended) for exceeding...
