With the trusts ultimate intention of having a say on the board and in an ideal world fans ownership of the club like swansea ,has anyone applied for the ricoh to become an asset of community value, therefore if sisu ever gained control of the stadium they would have to offer it to the local community first rather than anyone else ..

i know ultimately you will not have the money/ but in conjunction with other groups it could be possible..

it may also be possible to do it now while it is still in the ownership of acl/ccc

I think the trust have closed for business haven't they?

not heard a peep out of them for ages....


As fare as the community asset idea goes, its a good one (although won't chance our current situation) and many clubs (including the big boys) are going down this route now....

We're aware of it and if the time comes that it's needed we'll go for it. We put a statement out a week ago and have various things in the pipeline. Hardly closed for business.

What we should do is register Brandon as a community asset. At least it will stop Sisu from killing our speedway team too (assuming that they want to build the new ground there of course)

This is one of the things that I mentioned earlier as 'in the pipeline'. We can't do it but both ourselves and Supporters Direct are clued up on the ins and outs so we can advise the best we can. It needs to be a relevant community based organisation with rules, regs ect. One example would be the Binley Woods Neighbourhood Watch.

so after yesterdays interview have the trust changed their stance in any way from last weeks statement?

It will be one of the topics in our next meeting and also something that is being discussed through emails.

Does anyone else have anything that they'd like us to be doing? Feel free to reply on here or through DM.

Edit: By that I mean strictly CCFC matters. I won't be coming round you house to wash your car or mow your lawn! :)

CJ, can the trust protect my house because knowing SISU they will probably try and mug that off me and then move my family 35 miles down the road:blue:

He's very much still interested and not going away.

Just make sure you pay CCC and you'll be fine.

So we'll have a team without a stadium and a new stadium owner without a team? I don't know these business people, eh? Too clever for me.

He's very much still interested and not going away.

Are the TRUST organising any sort of protest for the Sky cameras at the Sheff Utd. game?

I have had leaflet from my lads school offering tickets at £6 a piece for the 6th and 13th October which we will attend for the very first time, any more deals like that and they could be on to a winner.

Pa****rs and Giants are always great games to start watching!

KCIC are certainly doing something big.

I've just posted this on the 'Sheffield United Match' thread -

tbh seeing how this thread [the 'Sheffield United Match' thread] has attracted very little interest, the completely divided response to the initial plan for sheff u and the Trust not supporting anything on Jimmy's Hill things are not looking great for 13 oct. I'm bowing out for a while after Sunday and I just hope people will rally behind the guy - he posts on here as Turkey Trot - who will be organising it
