Nice to now know it isn't his fault about the delay in the news on the new stadium.

I gather all his promises of dates were given to him by the agency appointed to deliver the stadium. Personally I think he was a little foolish to just take their information at face value but clearly he has not deliberately misled fans.

He wouldn't do that you see - not knowingly.

I'm also sure Council Leader Ann Lucas was and is in the same position!

Doesn't matter, he said it in the past. We are going to forget he said that and look forward.

I'm sure he didn't "knowingly" mislead anyone.

The difference being that in signing off ACL's accounts without concern for the on-going health of the business; the auditors shared the same view as that of Lucas. The same view was espoused by the Judicial Review judge, who stated "The private investor in the shoes of the Council would have been properly entitled to take the view that ACL was capable of servicing a loan for £14.4m over 41 years, and the security was sufficient to make the risk of it failing to do so commercially worthwhile.” So, a judge, being in independent possession of all facts saw no issue with regards ACL's health for over 40 years.

Who shares Fisher's view of the timescales associated with the new stadium?

That would be idiotic as he's still involved in the club. Probably why you suggested it

Mistrust everyone when it comes to CCFC, and you're probably close to finding the 'truth'!

Next thing we will hear is that we are appointing a new 'agency' and this will cause unforseen delays.
