Are the FL stupid? (1 Viewer)

[Tonylinc]

Since the FL gave permission to CCFC to play "away", for 3-5 seasons on the basis that they were developing their own ground, the owners have embarked upon and failed in 2 court actions designed to seize control of the very ground which they said they could not play upon and have failed to supply any concrete(not intended to be a pun)plans for a new stadium. Is this what was envisaged when permission was granted? Discuss.

In a word. Yes.

Not sure about stupid. Inept, spineless and useless - certainly.

Discuss? Surely you mean disgust!

 

[Samo]

Sadly lacking in the testicle department.

In a word. Yes.

It has been said by the football league. The only reason the football league won't get involved is due to threat of legal action. I don't condone it but I understand it as if someone threatened me with a big legal fees and dates then I would think twice.

Now however the rules have changed. Sisu have just been battered in court and that's no joke. They have no plan b as there was never a plan b. It was all about the Ricoh and getting it on the cheap now we all now that will never happen then god knows what sisu will do now. That's the worrying thing.

The football league could now step in and take the golden share off them and give it back once a home is found as in back home and issue it back. It forces Sisu's hand to do a deal as they have to get the golden share back so they would have to do a deal.

I fear this won't happen though but no reason now as to why it shouldn't. No threat of legal action as the case has been concluded.

I doubt sisu will be able to appeal. Remember they have only requested to appeal so this can either be rejected or approved. Judging by the thrashing they won't be allowed to appeal but just my opinion.

Imo the FL sisu the council and torchomatic are all to blame in equal proportion.

 

[dadgad]

Not thick but spineless and lazy.
It could also be said that they are entirely unfit for purpose.

 

[wes_cov]

Inept, incapable of grasping the full situation and as such take the path of least resistance/legal threats.

Look TF said “Plan A is to build our own stadium. We need to own our own stadium, it needs to be a normal football club with control of all revenues like all our competitors.”...quite when that became Plan A is another mystery. Plan A seemed to be to find a Plan after failing to do due diligence when they should've; Plan B (I think) was to reduce the rent bill; Plan C was to distress ACL out of business...where & when does "build our own stadium" become Plan A? If it was Plan A all they had to do was buy some land, gain approval & build the frigging thing! There's been no need for all the intervening nonsense whatsoever!

I reckon they've gone all the way round the alphabet and are back at the beginning. The truth is it's plan AA.
