Awaiting a call from Mr Tim Fisher (18 Viewers)

[wal3590]

This morning I watched the highlights from the 87 cup final. It made me so angry I can no longer watch my home team in my home City that I decided I would try and get hold of somebody at sisu by email. I managed to find an email Address for Joy Seppala. I winged off an email her just to try calm me down a little, I never in a million years expected a reply. I have just received the following email:



I wondered if anybody had any questions they would like me to ask? Very much looking forward to this! If he ever calls...

If we are 45 million in debt. If the new stadium costs 30 million. How do we intend to get a return for our investors on 75 million? This figure will obviously be far higher if the idea is to get to the premiership?
It will also rise whilst we play at Sixfields.

How exactly can the council hurt us if we rent at the Ricoh whilst building our new stadium?

When is the main fans forum promised by Mr Labovitch on CWR then repeated in the CET. That he said would answer such questions and was to be before June 10th?

 

[dongonzalos]

Very kind of you to enquire

 

[wal3590]

Tim said he was just getting on a plane so he has cc'd Mark Labovitch in. His email is a gmail address. Very professional!

 

[Gaz71]

Can you ask him if his beard has gone past the itchy stage yet please

 

[ajsccfc]

Some companies are using Gmail as their proper system increasingly, although in this case it's probably just because it's free.

 

[bradwellskyblues]

i did similar 2 weeks ago and had a 20 min chat with tim fisher,he is very approachable and we had a good exchange of views,i doubt it will change much but i felt a lot better for it

 

[italiahorse]

Wait until later, one of his spokesmen will appear on this board

 

[shmmeee]

And this is how it's done. Are you watching Nick?

Could you ask why we can't move back to Cov short term at least and state that "we don't want to" isn't an acceptable answer. As CEO he is responsible for the well being of the company, not his petty quarrels.

Also ask about CCFC Ltd Liquidation and why it's taking so long.

Finally why no serious efforts are being made to engage with fans as a whole instead of one to one meetings? Does he not agree that the fanbase is suffering and as such it's his job to improve things?

 

[wal3590]

It does show how much of a puppet he is answering Joys email. Wonder if she walks him around on a lead

 

[torchomatic]

Yes, we do.

Was there anything that came out of the chat for you that was new to you or changed your views?

 

[shmmeee]

Oh also, when will Sisu release their valuation? What's going on with the stadium? Is the Clarke money there to spend? Will the wage bill have to be cut again? When are we getting the finances forum Labovitch promised?

 

[torchomatic]

ACL said no, didn't they?

Yes, we do.

Should get another domain, I use GMail on my own address.

 

[shmmeee]

ACL said no, didn't they?

Which bit?

 

[wal3590]

Don't be a tit mate, I wanted to help get a few answers to genuine questions about the club we love!

 

[skybluetony176]

Ask them why didn't they just go to the European commission for England regarding the "state aid" as its there job to investigate complaints about the legality of state aid and therefore would have saved them a packet on the JR?

Can you also ask them what the ownership arrangements will be at any sisu owned stadium and what this means to the club.

Can you also ask that if Joy is a Christian why can't she forgive ACL and return on the temporary rent deal offered by ACL through the FL or at least show the fans (who were here before her and assuming she doesn't liquidate the club will be here long after she's gone) enough respect to at least counter that offer with the temporary deal that will bring the club home.

 

[bradwellskyblues]

nothing came out that changed my current position which is that whatever has gone on before there is no reason not to do a deal to play at the ricoh next season,i told him that and also that in my opinion if something concrete is not done by the start of next season i fear for the very future of the club

 

[Gaz71]

Not at all, genuine question, I like him with his beard!!!

 

[torchomatic]

Sorry, short term run-off thing.

Which bit?

is that why you said:

I bet he's really warming to you.

 

[torchomatic]

I think a few large companies and local authorities are switching to gmail now. Still have their own domains, they just use the gmail system. Think it's pretty crap myself.

Should get another domain, I use GMail on my own address.

Tim said he was just getting on a plane so he has cc'd Mark Labovitch in. His email is a gmail address. Very professional!

JLR use g mail

Can you ask him if the lead that Joy uses irritates his beard please, thanks TIT MATE

 

[lewys33]

JLR use g mail

We do but not with a Gmail address.

 

[lewys33]

Would be interesting to see what Tim says about a short term deal at the Ricoh.

 

[olderskyblue]

Don't be a tit? That will cut the posts down on this forum by at least 75%.......

Very easy. 'I'll speak to joy and get her orders'

Well I have asked the same question to ML and there were a number of different answers 1 being they have tried but nobody will talk to them, so I spoke to people in ACL and they said differently. But I think ML was talking mainly about councillors not talking. From what I am guessing they would consider a short term deal directly with the council not through Acl (sub-let) which is where there is an issue. Still be interesting to hear what TF says.

If that was true why would anyone from SISU be talking to CCC? It is ACL they need to talk to as they are the leaseholders. But it is CCC that they have the biggest gripe with so would find it hard to believe myself.

 

[Kingokings204]

Thanks for the offer mate and finally someone feels the same as me and actually doing something about it.

Can you please ask if anything but anything can be done to just play in Coventry? Even though there are a million things wrong this is bar far the single biggest thing we all want sorting out.

Thanks in advance

But it is Acl they have the problem with "business wise" so a deal with them out of the picture is better for sisu. Whether it is actually achievable is another matter. This is just me putting 2+2 together might be getting 68.4 for all I know.

So they won't talk to ACL but will to CCC? Must be after the freehold again then.

Otherwise are they blaming Higgs again? Won't talk to ACL but will to CCC means they don't want to talk with Higgs?

strange one is it not .

Obviously money to ACL helps their survival,to deal with CCC the JR would need to be dropped ,If CCC are confident over that they'd want to clear their name properly and not have all that Mud ready for future application.
