"This has been a disgrace, this whole scenario. An undignified, petty squabble that has reflected badly on both sides. And it's the club-and the fans-who have suffered....." Pat Murphy.

"The question is-where has the Golden Share gone. It's proving hard to discover. If it was moved to CCFCH without the FL's permission..it's at the discretion of the FL to hit CCFC up to 20 points deduction if they think the club are trying to pull a fast one".

Motty asks why on earth we left Highfield Road, sigh...

Murphy says ACL-"can you blame them".

Claridge asking "how have they gone from owning their own ground (to this)".

Clearly most of the BBC's experts are most out of touch...not Pat, though, he's the first national reporter I've encountered who has a basic grasp of the background!

"Case of breach of contract (for fans) under the Sales Of Goods act if the club doesn't play it's fixtures at The Ricoh".

Pat's a good 'un. Long been based in the midlands, knows the ins and outs of most of the clubs in the area.

Good mates with Brian Clough back in the day, some great interviews.

He got most of it right, but didn't really explain the deep financial trouble the old regime led the club into that resulted in them selling Highfield Road & then their 1/2 share in the Ricoh to stave of administration & reduce the write off GR/MM etc made.

He didn't mention the club sold the food and beverage income either, but yes he did seem to have more of a grasp of our plight than many in the national media, who are only just beginning to pay any attention to it.
