The salary was a joke - even I earn more!

And yet he was privy to sensitive information, around financial direction and decision
making at the highest levels of the club

Look on twitter. You've got one person who is in a position where they would have seen what was happening saying one thing happened and the local paper basically jumping up and down saying no it didn't.

He's stated he has documents showing it to be true. Same response from the paper.

Simon is quite funny really, trotted out the old line that the CCFC offer conditional and Wasps unconditional almost straight away. He definitely picked up that line off here, probably from italia or one of the other goons.

If the cleaner of the toilets in the east stand leaves her job and releases a statement ,
as long as she says what the gang want to hear it will be swallowed whole.
Torch even has a quote from KC at the bottom of every post like it was said by
Churchill or something. LOL

As Crowley I assume is moving to alternative employment do you think it's likely he'd lie on social media?

And this has led to KC giving some detail of the conditions. Seems all it was just an independent entity to look over the deal to ensure everything was above board.

He's also said the rejection they got from Higgs was a 2 line letter with no explanation at all for the rejection.

Because that's exactly the same thing isn't it? This is someone who on a day to day basis works with the highest ranking people at the club. Of course he knows things others don't.

Not at all, I'm sure there's admin staff, etc at the club that have seen the documents when they photocopied, filed them, etc.

I'm not exactly senior, but because I'm in the relevant meetings I know deals around my organisation, on a similar level to this Higgs deal.

It happens.

The biggest crock o'shite is how little they paid him really, and this probably shows part of the reason they're in such a mess, if they value communication in an entertainment industry so cheaply.

Because he was Head Of Communications and worked with those in the know. I doubt a cleaner would have the same access. But you keep going. LOL, etc.

The thing that gets me at the minute is every time the club release a statement it's scrutinised to the enth degree by the relevant contributors and their rags and pulled to pieces with pros and cons, he said she said and even video comment now. When is the same forensic examination of the council going to happen? Idiots like Lucas, Muton and Maton have some serious questions answer on their conduct for starters.

You mean like the bit about them blocking the Butts stuff brushed under the carpet as a fishing exercise and left at that?

I would think he's doing as he's told, putting out a flurry of (as of now ) unsubstantiated
Rumours before disappearing into the sunset.
Of course if he can back it up with facts, I will not only say I was wrong, I will also say he
was underpaid for the executive position he held at the club.

So if he is being paid to defend his employer, what is Simon's excuse / reason then?

Yes, we have ethics comittees and a longwinded JR where the council have had their internal emails and decisions scrutinised. It would be great to scrutinise this offer. So where is it?

Ah the Ethics Committee..

"Person X has admitted they forgot to do something they had to do, but we are clearing him of failing to do something they had to do"
"Person X has done something that breaks the code of conduct, so we are going to change the code of conduct"

What a whitewash that was. Council investigate Council and find Council didn't do anything wrong. Substitute Council for SISU and I'm sure Martcov wouldn't be quite so accommodating.

Where's the minutes of the council meetings that discussed the sale of the Ricoh?

Where's the details of the sale of ACL to Wasps?

It would be great to scrutinise these documents.

Where are they?

The ethics committee was an absolute joke. The JR is just looking at the legalities at a particular point in time.

Even then things that come out in the JR that show CCC in a bad light are quickly skipped over.

Excellent so he's not lying and you accept that actually sisu outbid wasps for the Higgs share.

Now you have accepted he isn't lying I'm sure many others will follow.

That's the point though. We won't be seeing any internal memos or emails from Joy's firm. As ML said SISU are not a "dodgy hedge fund". So there you are, SISU didn't do anything wrong either.

Yes, which is why SISU have nothing to lose, apart from investor's money from this war of attrition. It would be great if both sides had to lay all their reasoning and emails on the table.

According to KC on twitter today the only condition was that the whole deal was looked at by someone independent.
