Admin is a good thing for SISU. Initial deal speculated could be back on.

Apparently there are 8 bids ready to go. How well SISU fare depends on who they choose to partner with…

Could we somehow see an Ashley/SISU partnership? Doubt it, but it seems confirmed admin has opened doors again!

If Ashley gets the stadium you'd have to say its the beginning of the end for sisu isn't it ?

They've effectively been backed jnto a corner here

Or maybe they were already talking to Ashley and agreed a price for the club?

I don’t see why he’d keep them involved if he can afford to just buy them out.

“Breaking”

it was revealed on here at half time.

I’ve still yet to see anything on twitter, Facebook, the bbc, cwr or anywhere else that gets ccfc news, goings on or rumours out before this place.

The only thing is you have to wade through a load of puns and arguments that have been going on for 10 years. And Julian Gray updates

Just makes ton much sense. He wants a club, they want out, they’ve been too quiet.

I’m getting more confident all the time.

Can we have some system where people who are just speculating bollocks (like me) say that and people who actually have some level of information say that?

I have no Fucking clue who to listen to

I can't see Ashley buying it without wanting the football club too.

The issue is what will that take.

I’m just looking forward to now seeing bumper crowds to swell the coffers now all those ‘I’m not buying a ticket until SISU go’ will return in their thousands...





...or probably not

No competition for ACL. No outlay for the club itself. Maybe Sisu don’t want to sell?

The thing is, has Ashley got experience running an Arena / Events etc or is he likely to just bring somebody in to run it?

He won't be doing it all on his own I'm sure

We have been getting vibes for a while that Sisu are wanting out. Hence the likes of Simon Jordan (albeit maybe for publicity) said the club is available but there’s too many moving parts to bring it together. Only someone with real wonga can do that. Ashley has been looking for a way back into football and at the same time wanting to base his Fraser Group operations in the midlands.

The choice would be between receiving tens of millions at once and continuing to take a pound of flesh every year, except where the club runs at a loss or just breaks even. Surely they’d rather the former.

Maybe Joy really has got the sky blue bug? Why wouldn’t all this apply to any investor?

If her plan was to get a return by somehow getting hold of or a stake in the ground, wouldn’t an immediate large bid solve the problem for her?
