Actually it was they other way around. I raised it before Xmas. But no one picked up on it. Including the trust

Unless they have a way to utilise those losses against other gains/profits elsewhere in the investment portfolio to get a tax benefit for their investors?. Presently the capital losses would be the shares in Otium £65m plus £28m loans to SBS&L plus the ARVO loan approx £17m now inc interest. A...

I am certainly not saying there shouldnt be pressure on Wasps, there should be. The accounts are due by 28/02/2019 and could possibly impact on the season, when should it be raised? As for ACL/Haskell then has i have explained several times before there was never any way that could have been...

The Trust has to be prepared for all eventualities, from SISU staying through to Otium t/a CCFC being liquidated. There are therefore contingency plans in place to cover various scenarios, it would be pretty unprofessional not to have. Really do not see a problem with that or making it known...

Very disappointed by that. Especially on the back of the last couple of weeks.

Haven't heard it myself but from what is above MR seems to be saying that his message is not getting through. Why? And surely that's as much a fault in him as it is the players. When does he accept his share of responsibility? Some of his decision making is curious at best. Persistently moving...

What happened last season is irrelevant. Yes they are on a little run but we have been consistently top half this season. On our day we can be one of the best footballing sides in the division. What we lack is a striker in form. They are despite their run bottom of the table. In theory we should...

In theory we should be too good for them but I don't think the changes strengthen the team. Chaplin still has a lot to prove But seems he will always start. Hope he comes good soon. So I am going for a 1 : 1 draw

You have to think like a hedge fund owner not a football club owner They havent accepted offers so far because of the court action which if successful could be a large settlement. The interest is just a paper figure. There will be no philanthropy about it. No one will buy into the debt they...

Just my guess but ......to distress other parties in the hope of a settlement (via courts or otherwise) then to cash in the assets of the club by selling on - all of which means they can repay ARVO/investors with interest short enough?

anyone buying Otium Entertainment Group Ltd would want their head looking at. No one would take the debt on. A purchaser i would recommend to buy the assets and take on the football related creditors (a requirement by FA & EFL). Leave the liabilities loans and baggage behind. Wouldnt affect CCFC...

so what was the outcome of this meeting? Was it well attended?

Biggest cost the club has is staff costs .............. what you make of recruitment is up to you SISU are not putting much in but so far no one has proven they are taking much out. The accounts indicate there is not much financial room for them to take much out. If the room existed they would...

Operating leases would include the rent for Ricoh but also the Higgs plus any other sites they might use. Some associated costs may well be included Ryton is owned by Otium but ARVO has a charge over it and all other assets

All clubs have administration costs. in the case of CCFC in the last accounts they total £1.568m and partially disclosed as follows To those figures you have to add in things like all the costs of Insurance, repairs, Academy costs, running Ryton, grounds keeping, rates, etc Having taken a...

I largely agree the last sentence, there is little we can expect with SISU in charge other than keeping going (but even then there is a current doubt on that!) However some of what you are being told is misleading. Sale of players forms part of the current years results. We make annual net...

buying and selling players is just as much a part of running a professional club as wages or paying rent. Transfer fees are not ring fenced at any club, not least because circumstances change How do you quantify something like transfer add ons that you dont know the size of, when it will...

Fisher has repeatedly said the transfer fees go into the club. The reaction from many fans has always been not to believe him. Why would Boddy be more believable given his obvious lack of authority? Boddy is also an employee who has to do and say what the directors & owners say, just like MR...

Full rules can be found here EFL Official Website - Appendix 5 - Financial Fair Play Regulations a brief summary here SCMP (League 1 & 2) Net Transfer Income – Include actual cash received in the year from other clubs by way of Compensation Fee, Transfer Fee and / or Loan Fee (in these...

Mind if i add a couple of points to that Turnover has no set definition and is often agreed by discussion with each club and EFL. The three categories are broadly correct but it doesn't necessarily have to be "football" income eg it could be other income that is guaranteed from investments or...
