That's true in one context. But it doesn't have a bearing on SISU's inability to capitalise on why should have been a fresh start
But WillieStanley and stupot, of course the reasons are an issue and of course certain dates are relevent but to keep harping on about them to Fisher and his side-kick doesn't solve the where we play does it. On Monday it needs the whole hour on that subject alone, where do we play ? what about various cup-ties ? what if it is Walsall or even Wolves when a home game for us do we get most of the tickets ? do the Walsall/Wolves fans go in the away end ? What if the locals kick-up ? What about security for our fans every other week ? All relevent issues, none answered as yet. We have had two forums and both have been dominated by financial issues which is meat and drink to Fisher and friend.
Depends how much previous dealings hamstrung them from the start. A fresh start isn't really a fresh start.
Does that absolve them from blame? No. Does that mean it's the kind of examination that should have taken place long ago? Yes. Does that mean because it's in the past it should be swept under the carpet? No.
They should have let the club enter administration back at the time, and bought it out of administration; shorn of some historical debt, with due diligence highlighting the oppressive contracts.
The fans wouldn't have bought that, they were determined to go with Elliott's vision of SISU and shares handed over rather than administration and potential oblivion.
It wasn't the fans decision.
It was.
We didn't have to join in the pressure on people to hand over shares.
We could have campaigned for administration rather than SISU.
If you argue it wasn't our decision then, then any protest, any boycott, any question at a forum now is a total waste of time.
I don't know if its relevant but for the record I think the Compass deal with ACL wasn't signed until 2008 possibly March or a year later than that.get where i'm coming from ,they were clueless along with not confronting all of these issues at the getgo.They should have let the club enter administration back at the time, and bought it out of administration; shorn of some historical debt, with due diligence highlighting the oppressive contracts.
For example, if back then two interested parties had tendered bids and seen the Compass JV would hinder te development of the club; Compass take a view on that feedback. Stick to their contract and risk getting nothing, or offer better terms to attract the new parties to the table. Ditto with the rent.
Going back to Compass, cap in hand, when they're years into an existing contract isn't going to produce the same result.
That's simple business and negotiating. And the worst thing being; it's not hard

You have a point but it would test just how much real homework has been done and if a lot of it is bluster and bullshit.
