This has been discussed many many times.

If you have a local benefactor who has more money than they can spend and wants an interest then of course you can make a case for a new stadium etc etc.

If you have an investment company looking to make a good return for its investors, then there is no way any of this makes sense.

Nobody knows what SISU really have at stake, I think everybody can agree that they have lost far more than any fire sale of the very few assets could produce.

I find it difficult to believe there is any developer stupid enough to invest in a new ground where the security for their investment is the rent to be paid by CCFC.

Let us say that the Club could be sold tomorrow for 5m, big if, if SISu spend 2om on a new ground, 10m for the land would it now be worth more than 35m?

When I say worth I mean somebody willing to put down that sort of money.

Sounds very unlikely.

I doubt they have the money.....a 12k stadium plan tells me so.

SISU out.

It would not be them, it would be their investors.

I do not understand the sell for a stadium of any size.

Sisu know they have a choice. Do a deal with the Council and lease ricoh or take heavy loses for a decade.we all know hedge funds do not want to lose money.just a matter of time .I'm sure

Good points but been discussed before, the vast majority of us do not understand either but you will find a couple of brain washed Sixfields attendees who will give you a little " Fisher Bull" and explain in detail.

The majority of people attending Sixfields are smart enough not to fall for anyones bullshit and are well aware of the issues. Your simplistic take on the matter shows you have not really understood this.

Comedy gold. The only smart people at sixfields are the ones following their home team in their home town and that ain't you or any of the other lemmings blindly following sisu of the sixfields cliff.

I doubt anyone had thought about it. SISU's only revenue streams will be a stadium that is used 25 weeks in the year. They are on a hiding to nothing.

How much to build a stadium? £20 million? Plus another 20 mill in wages and lost revenue? The Ricoh has all of the things SISU needs.

An offer of £40 million for the lease may save money in long run. Why don't they do it?

Because ACL won't sell to them, hence why they're building a new stadium.

And sisu know this how? It's not from the constant offers they're making. To my knowledge they've yet to make 1.

Considering joy is on the takeover panel, surprisingly she don't seem to understand how to make an offer.
