I don't see what Tin Fisher gained by saying they would have never have done that same deal. They have always said they did not want that deal. I totally agree in normal circumstances a council would put it out there. I also agree it would be in the council's best interest to do so. It would...

Hedge funds are all about the money as you have repeatedly pointed out over the years. Money not claws will be the biggest factor in the decision. So liquidation isn't an option.

So I assume you think SISU would have bid and tried to buy it? Why do you think SISU did not table a bid when Anne Lucas said put your bid in or she was going to go a different direction with ACL? If they wanted to prevent SISU from buying it they could have still done what Dave said an open...

I still think we will end up at the Ricoh eventually but under the ownership of a moon stone related company. I think the real battle going on here is them waiting for CCFC to go into admin. Yet SISU are trying to get us to breakeven to say this is costing us nothing we can sit here for years...

I am Just glad they went

Administration relegation and new owners Liquidation not an option. Not doing it means the same but in a 3-5 years instead IMO

ok why did the council not want to create a bidding war and have a big open transparent sale of ACL. If such a method was going to earn more money for them and the charity? Dave, Grendel Stu please enlighten us?

So hand on heart. You genuinely believe if ACL was put up for sale. That if SISU were not in a position to put in an acceptable offer. Or keep up with the bidding to Wasps for example. Don't forget the experts on here were repeatedly pointing out there would be no other buyer for the business at...

To anyone else the council would have been nuts not to. They also would have taken a big risk if they made the deal public before hand. The result of such action would not have been SISU coming in with the big cheque book and finally putting in a sensible bid. They admitted themselves they...

So you honestly believe there was nothing SISU would have done to scupper Wasps taking over. Other than just out bidding or matching Wasps bid? Please think about it and answer genuinely.

Totally agree with staying within the law. SISU need the business to run at breakeven it seems st all costs. Which makes only one effective tactic available to the fans as far as I can see

Ok. I would happily put £100 on it that they felt SISU wanted ACL but were never prepared to do a deal similar to the one Wasps did. That SISU felt that they just needed to keep the club in Northampton until ACL goes bust. Joy reportedly said in a previous meeting that she would tie the...

What do you think made them scared to do a proper process? I know what i think, you seem an intelligent guy. Not sure if you are ignoring the obvious as it doesn't suit your 'the owners were hard done by' opinion or if you genuinely don't see it?

At the end of the day if your remit is to keep the club self funded, but not get into a position where it has to be let go as the loses will be realised. If the Butts becomes available and by that time our crowds are of division 4 or non league levels . If he can get 50% of any profits fir a...

Couple more years of this and they size may not be such an issue

14 million pounds of irrelevance

Point 2 what do you think would drive a council to do a deal so secretively. Once they have decided they are going the Wasps way?

Makes me question why SISU didn't get some actual hard fast bids in and maybe things would have gone the sane way. Unfortunately they were holding out for a bust ACL instead.
