    Maurice Setters R.I.P

    I recall that he once tried to steal a few yards by trying to take an offside free kick in the opponent‘s half.

    Ex Player Watch

    I've read the thread on this on the Derby County website and it covers a fair range of opinions as it does in this thread. There are a large number of posters there who think that the club's decision is correct for the club but there are also concerns that the 3 players involved have not been...

    My Suzuki Ignis has a heated front windscreen but no intermittent setting on the rear window wiper. (Yes, a none too subtle attempt to encourage further off topic postings).

    Liquidation

    The process of liquidation also meant that SISU did not have to submit outstandinmg accounts. Such accounts might well have revealed when and how assets were transferred between the comnpanies. The EFL could well have been happy about that not coming out too. We still don't know SISU's real...

    Stat of the day

    As for stats... If you have your feet in a fridge and your head in an oven, on average your temperature is just right.

    Appeal Dismissed

    They may well get most if not all of their legal costs eventually from SISU but what they won't get back is the impact of the distraction of the proceedings on their management who would otherwise be concentrating on their business. As well as the court case itself SISU can also drag their feet...

    Appeal Dismissed

    Maybe they are continuing the appeals because they are not yet ready to launch JR3?

    Appeal Dismissed

    The last time adminstration was used SISU controlled it and only put one part of the company structure through the process. They also managed to kill dead any investigations as to whether assets had been moved around in preparation for administration. This time round they probably want to get...

    Appeal Dismissed

    If the damages are to cover the damage to SISU's good name i think that i have some loose change to cover that. I could possibly cover any loss to Wasps' name too.

    Appeal Dismissed

    The market for football clubs seems pretty soft of late. Granted somebody would probably buy say Man Utd, Liverpool or Chelsea at a premium but clubs like Aston Villa and Newcastle have been open for offers for quite a while now, admittedly at an over optimistic price. I suspect that quite a few...

    “Jap sub sinks Forest.” Nottingham Forest playing Bayern (I think) lost after a substitute of Japanese origin scored the winning goal.

    The Guardian Coventry City Face Homeless future after Sisu's litigious aggression

    Compared to SISU's it isn't looking that bad. I don't think that SISU should rely on it failing to the extent that it all comes crashing down. Again,the talk is about Wasps as if they are the entire reason for CCFC not owning their own ground.

    The Guardian Coventry City Face Homeless future after Sisu's litigious aggression

    Offer? Do you think that a business should wait to see if they are are offered something? They go out and seek what they want and act in a matter that shows that they know what they want and are prepared to deal for it.

    The Guardian Coventry City Face Homeless future after Sisu's litigious aggression

    Hello. No I wouldn’t. Just because you understand why such things happen doesn’t mean you agree with it. If SISU had a decent business ethic from the start and taken the opportunities that were available, Wasps wouldn’t have had the opening that they took: they would still be a London based club...

    An entirely predictable response. After all, I was critical of SISU and am not just blindly choosing to condemn Wasps.

    The Guardian Coventry City Face Homeless future after Sisu's litigious aggression

    I thought that the identity I use would give you a bit of a clue. Born in Coventry, I was a season ticket holder for quite a few years but I stopped live in Coventry in 1979 and I’m not coming back. I rarely comment on football matches, I don’t have the right. Unfortunately, I don’t believe that...

    The Guardian Coventry City Face Homeless future after Sisu's litigious aggression

    I seem to have been reduced to defending Wasps, something I’m not comfortable with. My reference to a business approach was around the theme of sitting down, doing a deal and honouring it. There are a few times when it looked liked SISU could do a deal but were unwilling to complete. Wasps moved...
