If sisu are successful it's the councils fault surely?
Sisu have won the right to an appeal. Judges think perhaps JR1 + 2 should be done at same time. October talked about as likely date. They have now to prove their argument in court at another JR. Talk of compensation etc. is only talk until they succeed in convincing a judge and I think will require another court case to determine level.
CCC already started that particular ball rolling last October.
Mark my words, I now expect the 2 year extension not to be taken up and for us to become homeless in 12 Months.
Didn't Lucas go on record saying that the deal was only agreed as our long term future was assured?
Can't say I've seen any evidence.
Ann Lucas said:'We have sought assurances that Coventry City football club will be able to continue with their current arrangements at the Ricoh, and that Coventry Rugby Club will be fully involved in future rugby discussions with Wasps if a deal goes ahead.'We have received assurances on both of these matters.'
In view of all this why would Wasps want a lodger that is planning their downfall?

RE taxpayers missing out:
One of the reasons Sisu has been given permission to appeal is that the council's valuation of ACL was possibly way off.
Sisu's argument is that the loan wasn't commercially viable because it was so much more than the value of ACL.
That would mean the taxpayer didn't lose out in the Wasps deal. It also means Sisu's offer of £2m in 2012 would have been pretty close to the true value.
Arguing that the taxpayer lost out in the Wasps deal would actually be arguing against Sisu's cause.
Of course the argument over value will no doubt be a key point of contention in the appeal hearing.
Can't say I've seen any evidence.
Surely if it was true Sisu would need to be constructive as their part of the deal?
Otherwise Sisu could do anything they like knowing they have nothing to loose.
Haven't you got a car park to get ready for October "Iggy"
Your such a knob.
Someone has told you my school nickname and now you are playing the 'I know you but you don't know me' post.
You don't know me, they know me, so stop your school boy antics and pick on someone who gives a fuck.
Ruling reminder (Source CET)
"But a comprehensive judgment from judge Justice Hickinbottom cleared the council of any wrongdoing and said Sisu had deliberately attempted to distress withholding rent in an attempt to pick up a share in the firm on the cheap."
That's your name on the Wasps website where you are on the travelling section asking fans from London to use your car park.

The Sky Blue Trust handing out literature to people entering the court.
And they now say they are confused!!! :sarcasm:
The two judges decided that there was merit in Sisu’s claim that Justice Hickinbottom, who handed down that judgment, had made a mistake in his interpretation of the law
.... and your on Friends Required website "Gimpy" but I wouldn't bring it up on someone else's thread !!
As expected.
Just a shame we have to go through all this over again for the same outcome.
If by some freak chance they said no today SISU may have seen sense. Then got something sorted for us to stay at the Ricoh long term.
Did the two judges actually say that?

Yes they pretty much dismissed the original judgement as "unsafe" - I wouldn't be quoting him amymore if I were you.
They didn't dismiss anything. That could only happen at the appeal.
If he had have given them right to appeal in the first place would he have been dismissing his own judgement as unsafe?
Will I still be allowed to quote him if SISU lose again?
You seem to have all your eggs in one basket here.
They can suck my dick next season
Is that one of the perks if you buy a corporate season ticket?
If that was the case I'd have bought 6!
Seriously wake me up when it's about the football.
Any port in a stormApparently it's Waggott who delivers the reward.
The judges today appear to have completely dismantled the defence of 'protecting a public asset'.
