Trying to be objective and realistic (bearing in mind I support NOPM and KCIC ) I feel the only way out of this is for ACL and CCC to sell the Ricoh to SISU - I don't want SISU as owners, but I think it is the only way out. If SISU owns the whole lot, hopefully they will then sell to someone else. I don't want a "new" tin pot Stadium. Unless SISU own the Ricoh we are stuck with them - and Northampton. Hurts me to say this, but pressure should also be put equally on ACL, CCC and SISU.

How you can say that about someone who always trys to offer a balanced view, shows the complete unbalance of yours in a nutshell.

Try and deny that all you like, but it's a truth that business without income, and owners unwilling to make up the funding gap = oblivion.

So please, if you think oblivion is preferable, fine (schmeee does for one) but don't try the ridiculous logic that not giving them cash will guarantee they pack up and go home with their tails between their legs!

So you think sisu would liquidate the club and they would receive a bag of peanuts. Surely by selling what is left ie Ryton
and the players they would get a bigger return. Money Money Money sisu's god.:blue:

Do you really think any new owner such a certain PROPERTY DEVELOPER from America is interested in a little ole football club? Or a nice big stadium?

Liked your post by accident but you can have that one on me.

There is every doubt its working.

Even if it is - sisu can find some if the losses by selling some of the developing youth players. Is that what you want? A worsening of the squad just to protect a useless lump of concrete in Holbrooks?

Have they ever held on to any good players, let me make this difficult for you name one?

Sorry Fred I didnt see you and others complaining when SISU gave Coleman the chequebook to bring in his average players, nor did I hear many complaining when they let the useless turd Thorn bring in a glut of uselss turds at the start of least season. Still SISU couldnt sell them could they, they couldnt even give them away :facepalm:
Click to expand...

Wrong,I actually thought Dowie was doing a decent job under financial constraints.Thorn never had a chance, no money
transfer embargo and having to sign anybody he could get.Coleman was just another useless sisu acquisition.

Yes they probably cant keep funding the losses so will sell our better players to fund the losses in the next transfer window. Yes NOPM is effective of starving SISU of cash, but will probably have dire consequences on the team, as its the only asset left they have to sell, and at the moment we seem to be producing some promising assets.

Still will give people more to go apopletic about when we get relegated.
Click to expand...

Why did we get relegated from the championship i shall spell it out for you "THEY SOLD ALL OUR BEST PLAYERS" and the supporters were going to the matches at the ricoh, even if we were back at the ricoh they will still sell the best players. SISU must be got rid of.

Business that need customers to walk through their doors, locate where the customers are and that is why SISU will have to move or face getting no return on their investment (she said i want a return on my investment).

The vast majority were sold at a loss. If you discount selling home grown players Best, borrowdale, fox and Dann are the only ones I can think of. Huge losses on Eastwood and Westwood

No bids came in for them, if their had been a decent offer they would be gone and the headline would be UNDISCLOSED FEE so SISU could pocket the transfer fee.

Yes and a return will be achieved through liquidating the remaining assets.

Bids came in for.christie but turned down so we held onto him... now you will back track with but it wasn't a decent offer. You asked when did we last hold onto a player and you now have an answer.

He was signed for £750,000. If you dispute that your call - however as he was league 1 player of the year even someone as dumb as you must know he cost something - he left for nothing.

Juke was the other one that we profited on 5 players in total.

We didn't profit on Borrowdale either. I'll see if I can dig out the quote from some forum where Ranson admitted the fee we got was nowhere near what was reported.

We signed him for £400k. +£250k appearance based.

We also only paid Palace off because SISU settled the debt, of course.
