I know everyone hopes something is going to happen and that SISU will be on their way but what has actually changed. So some thoughts.

- They are seeking planning permission on Ryton and a proposal is included in the RBC 15 year plan - so hardly imminent so no sale soon planning could take many months/years

- They are apparently looking to be a tenant at BPA which hasn't even started to be developed - again not imminent but have a plan forward

- the Academy is under threat but apparently discussions were constructive and positive - still time to save the Academy if they want to

- We still have agreement to play at Ricoh until end of 2017/18 season - so pressing but not urgent. I doubt Wasps would actually kick us out so long as it doesn't cost them to have us there. PR aspect of kicking CCFC out would be very negative

- There is a petition that has in 3 days reached short of 13000 signatures nationally - the owners are so remote from the situation will it really affect them (that is not me saying we should do nothing btw I signed the first day). Have the CT in part used the fans unrest at poor results and built on it? Is it based on something going on in the background about changing ownership or is it something else say of a legal nature, or just plain old selling papers

- This squeeze being put on SISU is really primarily on CCFC hoping to squeeze SISU - but if SISU as I suspect have taken a lot of the losses on investment what more is there to lose if they are not putting any new money in

- does/can the stuff about the Academy, Ryton, BPA get spun in a certain way to convince the FL & FA that the club and owners are doing all they can but keep being blocked, that the fans don't understand what SISU have had to put up with - so keep pressure from regulators off

The thing that will really make the difference and create pressure for CCFC is continuing to fail on the pitch and I can not wish for that. That restricts CCFC income, but would CCFC going bust be that great a worry to SISU?

In reality what pressure is there on SISU that they feel, or makes them uncomfortable.

Got to keep an open mind - not just jump at the assumption regime change is near. Reality is little has actually changed, certainly SISU's objectives haven't. Is their driver the club or their investment/money? it isn't the club I feel
