Wonder what is signing bonus will be? Enough for a nice villa, no doubt.

I like what the club is doing here. Signing players with a promise of add ons if we get promotion. I assume last year is giving clubs good hope that they might well get a healthy bonus. Good strategy.

I don't know, nobody does. That's why my post starts 'unfortunately', because this is messy at best, and a potential disaster at worst. I just don't see why people can't see the reality that the football and business are 2 separate issues. Again, I wish they weren't

And Ashley has to distress sisu to get the best deal, unfortunately. Obviously sisu want to maximise sale price. People complaining about Ashley now, but if he does get the club, and his actions get the price down be a few £million, which can then be put into players, I doubt people will be...

Can't say I'm surprised. Two people own one thing, and the other owns the missing part that both parties want. How did people honestly expect this not to get messy?!? Ashley is starting to play his hand. From his point of view, all sisu have to so is sign... Let's see how sisu respond

Ashley has bought what half a 'normal' football club is. We now know through dk that sisu have no money. Which is presumanly why they couldn't meet the terms to bid for the stadium, which was to provide short term funding And we know that the club is absolutely for sale. And we know dk is...

From Frasers statement: “By agreeing to sign an exclusivity agreement before the 1st November, Frasers Group was the only interested party that was able to meet the terms of the sale process. This was essential in providing the necessary funding that enabled the Arena to continue trading beyond...

No, EFL havent but Sisu have agreed it. So presumably they can say its now out of their hands, so from their point of view they have no choice. king could somehow transfre his right to buy the 85%to Ashley??

How about.... King (sisu's mate remember) to offer his 85% to Ashley on basis that its the 'best thing for the club and stadium to be one' or a line like that. That makes it easy for Ashley to acquire, Sisu get to come along for the ride with their 15% on the hope Ashley gets us promoted and...

We should get a statement from King /club pretty quickly I think. It's not as though this was unexpected.

Don't get excited. This is all still a game,and the timing of the 'sale' shows that. The club and stadium are owned by different parties, so whoever that is today, or by tomorrow, someone still has to blink first. Nobody involved here is giving in. We thought sisu were stressed, this gives...

From Flightradar, looks like Ashleys helicopter is back in Coventry this morning after being elewhere over the weekend...

I live near Cardiff and have watched them play about 4 or 5 times this season (I scav tickets off my 2 friends with season tickets) and am in the away end with my lad on Saturday. PUSB!!! Cardiff have no resemblance to the old McCarthy team. I think only Ng and Ralls remain from last year...

if he has £12.7m in that account, why would he be bothering making £45 and £50 debit card deposits? Only thing that makes me believe this, is that along with photos of a house on facebook, there were photos of him and his family looking around inside the same house, all looking very happy...

Exactly, because it is a business decision, and nobody who will overpay to force SISU out. So we are stuck with SISU and they need to make it work.

I am no SISU fan, but equally there is no white knight. How long have we been waiting for that?? Parties showed interest, but that means absolutely nothing. Nobody came in with a higher bid than Otium. All the parties were developers/investors. I wonder why they want the club? It is not just to...

The land by tesco is identified by the council for uses including the station,retail, office and hotel. Tesco has permission for additional retail units and is currently agreeing details with the council regarding these. I'm pretty sure it's on this undeveloped land.

The fa site seems very useful and gives some clear actions. I'm sure fc united will be able to offer advice too once we have made a start.

And that was my worry about all this. However, what we are now proposing is not a new team, but more a project. This will hopefully apply more pressure in the short term. Depending on what happens we would hope to be in a position to enter a team next season, if necessary.

Possibly, the fans/members of the club would decide! Maybe it could be merged, or retained as youth teams! Lots of options. But as things stand sisu will not be back for minimum of 3 years, probably longer. Who knows what wil have happened in that time.
