Gone for PH4. Although anything except SISU will do.

Yeah, let's go for one that was a cohort of Richardson and helped SISU get in. Fair enough.

I think the delightful Bryan R was long gone before any of those people appeared on the CCFC scene - happy to be proved wrong though.

I've gone Byng - I think there's plenty of potential for us to be built into a financially secure football club if all their alleged plans are put into place.

In the end though I just want whoever our new owners are to:

  • build and maintain constructive relationships with all key stakeholders;
  • stay at the Ricoh;
  • secure access to year-round revenues at the Ricoh, and;
  • be somewhat competent when it comes to running a football club in a sustainable, decent-to-fans way.
Not too much to ask is it?

No way, someone has actually voted for SISU!? How'd you justify that one?

I haven't voted. I honestly don't care who becomes the new owner, Byng or PH4, because the administrator should be impartial and pick what he judges to be the best bid, now, if he acts in such a manner, is a different question, but lets bear in mind that he has a greater understanding than us folk.

I voted for the Asian bid purely go fresh start reasons. People continue to confuse club support with ownership support.

PH4 bid, as hes working with cov fans hoffman/eliot. Worried that the byng bid might be more focused on the railway than the club. But i'd take either over sisu.

Gone for bing as they have the biggest financial clout and although i wouldn't be averse to PH4 a fresh start may be better

Can everyone stop launching these threads which ask about the future.
It is much more fun to argue over tiny scraps of information over who is TO BLAME.
We British much prefer that to looking forwards. Anyway, it doesn't seem to matter to CCFC, FL or the Administrator what any of us think.
We are the kids who have to accept what the grown ups decide.

I apologise to you then Grendel as I have misread you, I thought you were very pro SISU, so we at least agree on principal about the one main thing, we desperately need new owners

I like the idea of the Byng consortium and the potential creation of manufacturing jobs in the city. We need more employment opportunities that will help to grow wealth in the city with the knock on effect of more supporters with disposable income.

Bang on the money this. It's not just about the football club it's what else they could potentially bring to the area.

Don't think he has ever said he is pro SISU. He agreed with the club regarding its stance on unreasonable rent, as did I, Torchy and a couple of others. Pro SISU was just the label given by those that disagreed.

I'd be interested in knowing what the reasoning behind the 'stay with SISU' vote was. Everyone is entitled to their opinion but I'm just surprised that there's anyone that would want them to stay if there were alternatives that may mean we're not going to be playing outside our city for years.....

I have gone for Byng...The reasons for me are 1. they seem to have more money 2. Its fresh start no Jlinks to the past JE/GH 3. They will let the locals run the club 4. Byng is a supporter

True. It seems that most would be happy with either of the other two I mentioned. However, there are supposedly another five and I wonder who they are and what their plans are. Unfortunately, I think it will be "business as usual" with SISU still in charge.

I went with PH4 because we know more about this bid but could be swayed to Byng. The only definite no for me is Scumsu

Voted for Byng, nothing against Haskell, but think the Byng bid has more financial clout, Byng himself is a lifelong CCFC fan. Would be great if both of them could find a way to work together.
