I speak only for the Higgs Centre in saying that there is absolutely no truth in the rumour that the Academy will be back at the AHC. It may be, and I haven't checked as it is Sunday and people deserve their day off, but as John Ledgwidge and his crew are carrying out the pitch refurbishment whilst trying to keep some playing surfaces, that there may be a constriction on bookings at the moment. The pitches had been used for two years by the Academy with no proper pitch renovation between the two seasons and had become uncared for as the owners of CCFC restricted any spending on maintenance. I hope that soon we will have the pitches back to a proper condition.

gutted.

what about us playing at the ricoh this coming season rumour. can you shed any light on this please??

PWKH is there any truth on this rumour please??

Guys just to nip this in the bud. I was told what I believed to be reliable information that block bookings had been cancelled due to the academy returning. It has turned out that they were cancelled due to work on the pitches. I got this one wrong!

Don't worry jack will so busy celebrating its not true he won't notice. As stated on this very thread jack puts the interests of ACL we before CCFC.

interesting that PWKH didnt deny it in the same way he did with Academy

Given the secret reports about the secret meeting said he wasn't part of the secret discussions, he might not be in a position to give a definitive answer as he was with the academy.

PWKH is still a director of ACL, he would have been briefed on the discussions. ACL agreed to a news blackout regarding the discussions and they have to date made no comment. In which case you would expect a director of ACL not to comment one way or another either. Think people are desperate for news and making conclusions that simply are not there

Another poster said he owned the twitter account!

Phone calls were made to cancel existing bookings that clash with the academy. The source on Twitter was me. 10 week block bookings have been cancelled.

The academy returning would be one thing but to derive more from that is speculation which unfairly raises false hopes.

Not when it's been discredited, and the source has piped up here that he was wrong.

Anybody who believes random chap or chapette on twitter is asking for trouble anyway!
