whatever the merit's of Simon's book would show that the situation is/was such a mess that someone had enough to write a book about it.

We are not spending £2.4 million. A budget is a calculation and means zilch I wish fans would get so caught up on it.
The ball boys & girls comment is a crass attempt to whip up disgust and opposition to the protests,
They said on Sky they had been warned to expect the protest, the club would have known exactly
Where in the ground any protest would take place.
So there are steps they could have taken to ensure the kids were not in that particular area, so if it
Did happen they are just as culpable for putting them there.
To go back to my first point, Bell was signed in 2009 - so during SISU's tenure. If they sign players, knowing the totality of their package includes an up-front investment plus wages - and they can't afford those wages against known incomes - then it's their own fault. If they then need subsequent cash injections because the business won't support the commitments they've sanctioned; then I don't expect them to then raise any such investment as a sign they've 'supported' the club with investment. They haven't. They've planned badly
I understand about SISU not wanting to realize a loss and wanting to break even until a mug/ bidder comes along. Unfortunately we are not, say, a cardboard box factory. There will be more protests and crowds will dwindle because we are a sports club which is supported because of the emotion obtained by achieving some form of sporting success. The aim of every club should be to compete or else why bother? Our aim is waiting for a bidder. At least the protest showed that there is passion still there- despite the lack of sporting ambition. That should be counted as a plus by any potential buyer.
Maybe I'm clutching at straws but dickhead saying that if potential investors were there last night then it would put them off, means that maybe potential investors were actually there. This also with the sudden change of stance from 'this club is not for sale' to 'every club is for sale'
Well Fisher is saying we have a mid League 1 budget around 2m. So all your vitriol about it being Top 6 and how much Mowbray under performed with it was bollocks as usual. About time you realised any manager is going to need 3 to 4 years to build a squad here and time to develop youngsters.
Fishers objective he said was to breakeven so that it costs the owners nothing further. Therefore unless results over achieve there can be no ambition.
I have said it before ...... Ccfc has become an internet based zombie club..... going nowhere
sadly one of the most consistent things that we've seen across the leagues in recent seasons is that new owners don't understand footballDon't think any investors were there, but perhaps if they were watching on TV, and they understand football (which clearly Fisher doesn't) they may feel that the CCFC is worth the effort as despite 9 years of continual dross there are fans who are prepared to stand up for their club and fight for its future.
They may even see the potential of the fan base if we ever had some success.
Why would potential investors be put off by what was in fact a very peaceful protest?Maybe I'm clutching at straws but dickhead saying that if potential investors were there last night then it would put them off, means that maybe potential investors were actually there. This also with the sudden change of stance from 'this club is not for sale' to 'every club is for sale'
they wouldnt. he just doesnt like the protestsWhy would potential investors be put off by what was in fact a very peaceful protest?
We're actually making the same point. Presumably then you accept the way the club is now being run?
this is still what Fisher manages to skirt around about how a breakeven club at the wrong end of League 1 or possibly even in League 2 is an attractive investment.Fishers objective he said was to breakeven so that it costs the owners nothing further. Therefore unless results over achieve there can be no ambition.

And that ladies & gentlemen is not what football is about.
It's stupid Don. It makes the club even less attractive to investors than it is already. Fisher said that lasts night's protest would put off investors. If that isn't true, the declining gates and lack of potential in the fan base certainly will. An investor won't look at one off events either they'll see a steady decline.Exactly get it to breakeven so it costs nothing whilst they work out what the hell they can do the stop themselves having to realise their loses.
Meantime we are suppose to sit there like plebs building statues of Joy thanking SISU for saving our club.
When basically they are neutralising our business whilst trying to work out how they save SISU.
We are buggered no one will offer them a deal that is worth enough to convince them to accept their loses and having those loses realised.
They won't accept the losses as they are as I guess it would mean the end of SISU.
As crazy as it sounds the only chance we actually have of them going is if we get as far away from breakeven as possible.
There is only one way I can see that getting achieved NOMP.
Which is really controversial

Let's be clear about this
Totally agree, there's breaking even as part of a greater strategy for progressing the club and breaking even while letting the club drift into oblivion.Let's be clear about this; having the club breaking even - though it's a laudable ambition - isn't a situation the owners should be proud of, given the way they're realised ambition. The great way to do it is to build whatever revenues are available - and I know not all are, so that not the debate; and operate within whatever budgets can be improved. Fisher complains about incomes, and I do have sympathies with him in that regard, but what revenues he does have he's burned; through losing his customer base, and creating a toxic brand that most commercial parties can't see advantage with partnering with; so sponsorship is down.
Thereafter, to take this newly reduced budget and cut, cut, cut; with a team filled with the revolving door of loaned youngsters, directors who run the club/play a role in property development/act as first-team coach, and a club shop that's sometimes run from a trestle table.
There's routes to break-even and routes to break-even. One is a great achievement. One is cruelly simplistic and cruelly negative in it's execution. We're not in the former

I thimk you have to place ball boys everywhere that the ball is likely to go out of play.The ball boys & girls comment is a crass attempt to whip up disgust and opposition to the protests,

4 of them were players mate.I swear I seen kids on the pitch with the protesters, at least 7 in cov kits.
