someone just text in saying we would be losing money at the ricoh.

Free/reduced rent + much lower wages than last season + 10-15k attendances = a loss?

Who were the idiots calling for Elvis to go.
He's he best manager we've had since snoz and what is he supposed to do with owners who don't want to invest in the team or give a fuck for anything but their bank balances.
I wouldn't blame Elvis for leaving when twats like this are allowed air time on radio

I think linnel can be think sometimes our inability to sign players is due to the reduced budget that we are operating and SISU are holding the purse strings and dictating these decisions. Wolves increased their firepower we didn't as they spent money we are looking for players on the cheap good housekeeping is to be applauded but being cost effective whilst you lose so much income by playing at northants is economic madness.

Yes, it appears that losing £170,000 per home game is still not enough incentive for these ruinous pratts to get off their fat arses and sit down round the table and SORT IT.

FFS get us back to the Richo !!!

Exactly. Now I'm no financial expert but what in God's name is the business plan? There must be one surely? Are they still hoping to distress ACL to the point of picking up the Ricoh for peanuts or are they seriously going to build a new stadiumointlaugh:

SP is the best thing to happen to CCFC in many years. It's up to us to make sure he knows that - & drown out the noisy empty-heads that spout crap against what he's attempting to build.

personally, i'd like to see the removal of Fisher from our football club,
his productive input, in my eyes, is zero,
& don't go there with popularity ratings,
all this with no reference to our owners,
who ever they may be,
but, of course, the FOOTBALL club is being run / controlled, by a female who knows nothing about football,
oh, that's ok then as far as the FL are concerned ?

Well you made the comment - many owners know nothing about football - it's you that clearly has gender as the primary issue.

we could have made that every week on tea and biscuits at the Ricoh, if some are to be believed?

i'm not a PC person myself, but I think it's a valid point from Grendel. It doesn't matter who runs the club if they know what they're doing. Same as if they are hapless, they shouldn't be in charge,

Bit like the female linesman, everyone gives her stick, but generally makes less mistakes and correct decisions than most male ones.

Ability- shouldn't be persuaded by gender, race or any other discriminator I agree G.

The last six years the data is clear: she's not, SISU aren't, they should accept that and resign/leave or whatever other "out" option exists.
Do you not agree?

Agreed.... Its clear G also thinks that gender plays no part in ability-hoping that G also agrees with the conclusion?
