I would like to ask who it was in 2003 that CCFC owed £6.5m to which ultimately led to the sale of their share in ACL, and why they raised the money in that way rather than retaining the asset.

repayment of loans to directors of 2m which was then lent back to club, 2.5m cleared a loan and 2m cash.

Which directors?
Loan to whom?
Why was it called in at that particular time?
What happened to the £2m cash? Was it just used to support everyday operation?

I'd ask the head of the Council what they are doing to ensure there will still be a football club and academy in existence when SISU eventually leave.

I understand that there are numerous benefits to having a successful (as opposed to a failing or stagnant) football club. But really the council shouldn't have to do anything. What percentage of residents go to games regularly? 3-4%

more than attend any other regular sporting event in the city.

But they're all ran as a business, not a community service. The council even stepped in, to the tune of over £100m for the completion of the Ricoh as we all know.

My question would be about the sale of HFR and the poor financial management at this time. We should never have got to the point of a council bail out.

Rather than council officials (who have much more important aspects of running a city to see to) worry about a football club they should be concerned with health, education and safety.

It's the imbeciles that led us to this point that shouldn't be able to sleep at night!

they're not exactly excelling in those areas either.
