The Ricoh will do fine for me. What I want are new OWNERS the sooner the better.

Couldn't agree more, Fred.
While SISU are in charge, the fans will never be united whether we are at the Ricoh or not.

were CCFC fans ever united? apart from 87?
Have you ever been to a game, or do you get this impression from reading some of the sad bastards on here?

I have been to a game. Quite a lot. But the amount going to sixfields show how unified our fanbase is.
Sorry, I was probably a bit harsh. The amount going to Sixfields is 6 to 7% of the fanbase when SISU took over - that seems pretty unified to me.
The apparent disunity on here is down to a very few posters that continually try to excuse SISU or blame someone else for the total clusterfuck they have made of the club. Probably the same people you stand or sit behind and hear them whinging about something regardless of the performance or enjoyment experienced by the vast majority of the fans.

Any coincidence that Ms Garlick looks like Ms Fisher, very similar, obviously type matters to Timmy!
NW I remember you getting stroppy in another thread about 18k capacity you kept quoting. Now we're all suddenly quoting other figures.
Can we all just stop discussing a fictional stadium. The reason the figures and locations will keep changing is - it don't exist. It's Timmy's little play thing to help him reach his end game. Forget it. I hope Garlick gets the coverage she desires for being part of this awful sham.

How long does it take to increase the size of a stadium? how much will the capacity be lowered during this time? it seems suicidal to build a 12k stadium, have a good season in league 1, get promoted suddenly there is 17k people who want to come and we have to lower the capacity to say 9k for that season. So just as we have the most demand we have the least seats. The whole thing is ridiculous on every level and I don't belive for a second this is actually their plan, nore do I belive they would find the investors if it was their plan. There is a massive chance of failure and you'd have to be stupid to invest in it.

A 12k stadium (11200 after segregation) last season would have meant around 10k fans would have missed the bigger league games, costing the club around £150k. A significant amount we are told.
A 12k stadium would also prevented over 21k people seeing cup games. At £5 a ticket that's £105k.
So last season (pretty crap season as well remember), a 12k shed would have created £250k-£255k in lost revenue for the club (revenue is the key to success remember).
They haven't really thought this bullshit story through.

Great ambition from Sisu not?
