Les wants to start asking the right questions to the owners of our club like are you using ccfc as a debt donkey to offset profit made in other areas to save on tax due in the profitable parts of the Sisu portfolio. The crux of it for me is he is digging for shit in the wrong places, is it a coincidence it all changed after the telegraph interview with joy?

If a wedge is coming from investors (SISU or outside), SP and SW, obviously, not able to spot a pig in a poke; hence TM appointment. TM wants to see the evidence of cash...cunning bugger, good on him, hence short summer contract. He can be looking from now, but only deal in the summer. Again here's hoping. Glass half empty.

I made one post asking if you bought the Telegraph, that's all. You said you read it on-line so please explain to me what the fuck you're on about me slagging you off. I pick out other posts of yours because you talk like a twat sometimes but on this thread? and you say I've the unhealthy obsession.......

Yes, me and lots of other people in my line (building work) as it's something to read on site or working in someone's house. Nice to have something physical to read. Besides, why would I want to take up more time at home reading stuff online, it's tedious enough sometimes on this forum.

Can't fool me. I've seen your plastering; you only buy it to mop up the mess.

Fair play to Les Reid for trying to keep up momentum on an important story he obviously cares about, but his act is wearing thin now - his headlines seem to be rooted more and more in his own personal activism than any genuine scoops. The fact he was allowed to co-sign that open letter and then write his own article about it without acknowledging it in the piece was nothing short of scandalous.

What that article doesn't say is that we had chances to buy into the Ricoh via ACL since we moved in and didn't do so. It also seems to be missing; the fact that we were saying (& still are?) that the new stadium is plan A and that we weren't interested in the Ricoh,
Joy allegedly saying that she wouldn't interfere in the sale to Wasps etc. Yes it was a screw up of the highest order from the club/Sisu but also hypocrisy of the highest order from the council.

The body of the article reports on Kieran Maguire's comments on Shane O'Connor's interview with him last week about the CCFC accounts. The headline is unrelated to the key components of the article.

The headline appears to be followinng a continuing theme of questioning the Ricoh deal but the content does nt support the headline.

This is good for increasing the click through rate and keeping Ried's name known, but the article is not original news.

When I'm at work the only time I read the paper is when I'm on the bog, the rest of the time I'm out stealing cats in Coundon and that Pesky journo Simon Gilbert keeps writing stories about it
