Well I emailed my local councillors objecting to the 'Rugby development offices' on the basis that it contravened the stated policy of CST of broadening sports participation, clearly other sports like running, badminton, tennis etc. would better fit the bill. Fat lot of good my objections were ever going to do anyway.

So. I spent the bank holiday successfully teaching my youngest to ride a bike. What have the rest of you been up to...




...holy shit. Some of you should get out more often and find something constructive to do.

I'm not sure why it's allowed to be forgotten about.

If I'd heard something myself, I'd be honest and say look, it's not 100% or concrete, but this is what I've heard...

Not, I'm in the know, you'll find out, nose tapping etc.

On Facebook, there's one person adamant SISU are going within weeks, I'm sure that will be forgotten about too.

Just don't see the point in making up rumours to wind up fellow CCFC fans

Still. It's bank holiday for crying out loud. If I'd have known some people were this lonely I would have invited some round for dinner. Now I just feel bad and guilty. It was steak and chips with a peppercorn sauce as well.

@Nick Can you put something on people's accounts that tag them as a bullshitter when this stuff doesn't happen.

I'm not talking about when someone says something like "I've heard this, have no idea if it's true but I'm passing it on" but those, like is happening now, where people act smug and superior and pretend they know loads.

So I'm now quite excited about tomorrow after reading this and Twitter.

It's the hope that keeps us going. Trying not to engage my brain telling me it's all bollocks and you'll be gutted tomorrow evening again.

Something is happening that's for sure, what the ending will be nobody knows. Im sure we will be waiting for many tomorrow's but Sisu are being pushed deeper and deeper into a corner and something has to break. They like Robins and many of the players will have to make a decision about next season? some will not be able to stick around due to the financial plight the club is in and that does include the owners.

No Wilson, Maddison, Clarke or academy kids to thrown at prem clubs wanting to spend a couple of mill this year or a spike in ST sales to allow for wriggle room. Sad really and a very bad position all connected with the club find themselves, no quick answer unless fresh ideas, money and planning comes in to turn this ship around. My only hope is with all the noise that is going around something is going on behind the scene's and serious people are thinking and talking around the table and not to the media. We can all live in hope i suppose, besides sick of seeing the same shit arguments on guess work on here, including myself may i add..

Just seen a couple posts of people saying possible news tomorrow. But I'm taking it with a pinch of salt.

Fingers crossed tho!

Yup, a load of people are throwing out random rumours, so that when, finally, something *does* actually happen, they can claim they were right all along.

Something's been happening for years and years and years, that's for sure... it just hasn't happened yet.

If the news does come out tomorrow we should be ready to blitz Sisu and any of their puppets with a social barrage.
Is there a full list of contact details anywhere ? Are we allowed to publish them ?
Keep it sensible, no threats or anything stupid but let them know your feelings.

I don't agree with it.
But sisu did nothing to show that they wanted it when they moved away.
Come on they first refused to pay the rent then moved away.
TF himself said that ship had sailed.

FFS you expect everyone to bend over backwards for them, that is the problem that is what Joy expected.

I know the ground was built for us and I believed we would play there for the rest of my life time, unfortunately I never believed we would have such terrible owners, who not only lost us our home but took us to the bottom league in professional football.
Sorry but I just cannot forgive them for what they have done, and cannot bring myself to fight for them.

People keep saying they won't be here forever well I cannot see them going anywhere and if they do I worry they will take us down first.
Maybe must maybe if we do get a better owner all this can be mended.

Plenty have circled the club looking for a chance im sure, always interest in football clubs. I think Sisu have been very strong in any approach and have made it clear they are not walking away. But good money after bad year in year out while what you have decreases in value might make all the difference this time if something is going on. Who knows, time is the great answer and the most important thing we have, lets hope Sisu have had enough and called time to give us all a rest from watching the decline of something we all care about no matter opinion of our owners.
