You said Tony it was the same BS so your automatic assumption is it isn't true -as it doesn't fit into your cost little scenario

Why say it's BS Tony?

I was clearly talking in the context of the assumption that you and Steve are lying. Not like you to take something out of context hey.

I think he's probably talking about the basket ball player Chris Andersen.

Or maybe not.

Wonder if that's where it has actually been picked up from or if there are others who have inside information, if it turns out to be true of course.

Do you think that TM is lying when he says the budget is not noticeably different to last year and that he couldn't complete deals with his targets as they went to championship clubs?

That was my thought. Although he could just have realised its an impossible job and be fed up with constant abuse.

Do you think TM/MV are lying when they said they never had a interview at Rotherham?

Does nobody get the impression that London Wasps want the legals dropped because they fear something? If not why would they give a shit.

Don't you get the feeling that, the further the JR goes into European Courts the chances of SISU winning have a far greater chance of success?
*Edit* Seeing as Great Britain are hated more than a dose of the pox by every European Country atm?

The interesting thing is you spout a lot of bullshit and pass it of as fact

When some suggestion that your beloved Wasps are implicated in being less than honest you literally start to shit yourself. Why?

Anyway here is a question - have you met Mr Eastwood, Mr Armstrong and the Finance Director (whose name I have forgotten) - have you engaged in conversation Italia?

It kind of does make sense though.

- wasps need a long term commitment as it will help with stadium sponsorship
- ccfc seem to be doing everything short term, they're still postering about a stadium and pursuing the court action, I find it wholly believable that sisu would only want another short term deal - it keeps options open.
- wasps then don't want to look like thr bad guys so give it the "legal noise" bollocks
- Anderson says the legals weren't the issue.
- wasps keep refusing to talk in a negotiation tactic to delay a deal until late in thr hope of forcing the club to sign a long term deal by leaving them no choice 'long term or leave' whilst continuing to cite "legal noise" deflecting blame onto sisu.

The above makes some sense the
Only questions that need answering regarding it are that

Anderson actually said he didn't know enough about the legal side of things to address if it is a genuine issue or not. He then added that it isn't Wasps getting sued.

Anderson said regarding the talks the club were looking for a long term home.

Armstrong said afterwards that the talks were specifically over a 20-25 year deal. Anderson, interviewed after Armstrong made this comment never disputed it.

So why are neither the club or Wasos telling the truth if the above is a lie.

Do you think mr Armstrong was aware of court action prior to these talks?

That's the thing. They bought the Ricoh knowing the court action was ongoing. They started negotiations knowing the court action was going on. It sounds as though they never mentioned it to Anderson as being a problem.

Personally I don't believe the legal noise, and that was before Steve B posted that.

Somebody posted a "rumour" about Wasps trying to get us out by the end of this season.

People start going mental at the club.

Couldn't make it up.

I think Anderson will have completed a year shortly. I don't think it was ever going to be long term. He has his academic career and his books, consultancy etc. To keep him occupied. The new job advert for a director seems to cover him not being there. He may have done things in the background to do with finance and running the business more sensibly ( just guessing as why else was he here? ). But, I think he will be gone as soon as they have a new director - probably November at the latest.

He will not be writing his CV as this:

Came to CCFC. CCFC top of league 1. Left CCFC. CCFC bottom of League 1.

Went into negotiations for the Ricoh Arena. Negotiations frozen.

Was invited to meeting about Academy. Didn't go. Academy grade 2 probably gone.

Attendances were growing when I arrived. Increased prices 2016 to increase revenue. Decreased quality to live within budget. Attendances falling. Revenue decreasing.

Have many Twitter followers. Good. But don't tell them anything.

People are really getting themselves worked up, grown men as well. Some of the things being said to him.

Reminds me of this:

Dear Slim, you still ain't called or wrote, I hope you have a chance
I ain't mad - I just think it's f*cked up you don't answer fans
If you didn't wanna talk to me outside your concert
You didn't have to, but you coulda signed an autograph for Matthew
That's my little brother man, he's only six years old
We waited in the blistering cold for you,
Four hours and you just said, "No."
Click to expand...

Dear Mister-I'm-Too-Good-To-Call-Or-Write-My-Fans,
This'll be the last package I ever send your ass
It's been six months and still no word - I don't deserve it?
I know you got my last two letters;
I wrote the addresses on 'em perfect
So this is my cassette I'm sending you, I hope you hear it
I'm in the car right now, I'm doing 90 on the freeway

If he had anything about him he would reply to them all with Eminem Lyrics when he leaves.

Coventry City Football Club confirms that Chris Anderson has decided to step down from his position as Managing Director and Executive Vice Chairman.

Chris will return to his role as Senior Partner at Anderson Sally LLC, a football industry advisory firm.

CCFC Chairman Tim Fisher said: “We would like to put on record our thanks to Chris for his hard work and diligence since coming to the club. Going forward, the club will continue to be actively managed by the club’s Board of Directors, with Technical, Operations, and Commercial Director roles all reporting to the Board.”

CCFC Board member and Technical Director Mark Venus commented: “We wish Chris all the best. I know how hard he has worked for the football club, always keeping the best interests of the club and supporters in mind.”

Chris Anderson said: “I came to CCFC to help with the ongoing process of laying the right foundations for the football club on the commercial and football sides. Solid progress has been made on both counts, and I would like to thank everyone associated with the club – and especially the club’s supporters and my fellow Board directors and colleagues for all their support. I wish them and the club all the success in the future.”

There will be no further comment from the club at this time.

So has he walked because he's out of his depth, didn't realise how bad things were or is it because there is more bad news on the way?

We need to unite and get SISU out.

How? I don't know yet, but thoughts need to be pitched, and we need to stick together as a fan base.

It needs to happen fast. I've got a really bad feeling about what's coming around the corner...

That's all very well and I totally agree. But then what? Who takes over and buys us? There's 91 clubs in the league who are probably a better investment than us!

To get SISU out there needs to be a viable exit strategy. At the moment the only thing I can think of is someone coming in who will offer them a figure they deem is acceptable, I expect somewhere in the region of £15-20m.

Problem is why would anyone pay that, especially if they aren't a fan. Unless we have some huge business moving to the city that wants to throw some money in as a sweetener I can't see why anyone would buy.

The trust seem pretty damning of him and sisu. And yet again call for sisu to go via an auction this time.

They make the point in 10 years we have significantly gone backwards and now it's time to go. Been saying this for 4 years now.
