I don't know if this helps in the pie story but last season someone (probably the Caterers) was selling off lots unsold pies for a £1.00 each in the coffee shop in the Atrium at the end of matches

And we've been told ACL don't make statements so they're sticking to theirs. So we're all happy then aren't we as both sides are doing what they usually do?

But, if in doubt, say nothing about ACL and blame CCFC. Seems the way it is on here despite beating of breast denials.

And that's where you risk falling into the trap.
SISU come out & clarify things now, you are happy! The fact their 'clarity' will almost certainly be slanted heavily/unreasonably to their own advantage is no nevermind?

I've had one of their pies and can assure you it caused much wailing and gnashing of teeth.

If you don't care about them why don't you ever shut up about them?

You're right. We'll just go with blaming the club. Easiest way.

It depends what they are having a go about surely?

There's the difference between the 2, that's my point.

People can blame sisu for something that's down to ccfc and blame ccfc for things that are sisu.

They can blame either or when it's down to acl as well.

Again don't disagree but there's two sides to this but people are only interested in one side.

The club made a statement yet the other refuses to comment, yet all we hear is the statement isn't good enough. It's a lose-lose situation. I'm wasting my breath so i will give up now.

Maybe they are trying to protect their customer and not make them look stupid.

OK. Have tried politely all day to reason with you. But all I have got back is you insinuating that I have been blaming CCFC. Would you like to point it out to everyone where I have said anything accusing CCFC of wrongdoing?

And am I wrong in saying that as the only side to have made any sort of comment they could easily expand on what they have said so we have a clue what is going on? Then maybe ACL will have no choice but to make a comment themselves.

More information is always better than limited information. And if it is pointed towards someone being at fault they would have the choice of responding or not.

I don't quite get this.

I have never been one to blame Sisu for all and sundry, so think I am reasonably balanced (wife will say otherwise), but.......

ACL don't usually make statements and didn't here.

Sisu did make a statement and it wasn't very clear.

A lot of us would just like clarification. As Sisu are the only ones to make a statement people are suggesting they could have been clearer.

I would love for ACL to make a statement, but that doesn't look like it is going happen.

Maybe I am missing something, but there seems to be a bit of wailing and gnashing of teeth over a very small issue.

When you say ACL don't make statements they did about legal noise - or was that wasps holdings? In which case why don't wasps holdings make a statement?

But when we attend we are there as customers of CCFC not ACL, I know it's only small but purchases We
make while supporting our team are a "revenue stream" to ACL, so seems odd they would prevent it.
SISU in my opinion are cut more slack than their worth, or ever deserved.

Compass are struggling as a company so I think it may be so something to do with a change in pricing structure

And is it wrong to expect both sides to comment? I have insinuated because you and others have not mentioned ACL, it's all CCFC should say this, they should clarify that, which was my point, but it got lost as so many things do. My last word, we're going around in circles.

The company that should make comment and clarify the situation is the company of which We are
customers, if it's down to Wasps, ACL, or compass then just tell us and we can bitch at them.
The fact they haven't just reflects badly on SISU

You're getting confused.

For that reply you just quoted I was talking about Wasps and as for the ACL statement thing, as I clearly said, it wasn't me who said they don't usually make statements it was OSB and I was quoting him.
