    Have Waggott and Pressley got it right?

    Whilst I agree with Shearers sentiment that they are a team that give a chance to youngsters and so far seemed to have nurtured some excellent talent. The report sounds as if they've been a model club for years and doesn't mention that even though they took upto £25M for 3 players (Shearer...

    PR Campaign Assignment... Opinions Wanted Please From Stay-Away Fans!

    No from me. I'll only go to watch us if we are back at the Ricoh. The way I feel at the moment is that even if SISU did build their own stadium somewhere else in the city I'd have to think about travelling to it. I certainly won't rush back when / if they come back to Cov.

    What if ACL go back and accept the CVA, we get back 10p penalty and get promotion?

    It's a game of commercial suicide isn't it on both parts? ACL have taken the stance that their not willing to accept the CVA and so get a pittance from Otium / SISU as the administration process completes. Whilst in the background they claim that they can still turn a profit without CCFC...

    What if ACL go back and accept the CVA, we get back 10p penalty and get promotion?

    No it's not. If we'd have gone another 12 months in admin and started the 2014/15 season then we would've had the 10 points deducted. This was because of the CVA being rejected and the proposed liquidation of CCFC Ltd.

    Billy Daniels

    How can you be a critic of him in the past when he's only played a handful of games for us so far in his career? Just curious, you may have taken in a lot of 2nd team games / youth team stuff that gives you a fair say. Just seems an odd comment.

    Baker sending off

    If David Bell had done this he'd be out for another 18 months injured :)

    what do ACL gain..

    Well, in the immediate future they've now got to finance a football team based on the income of 300 season ticket sales (£66k income). So covering the shortfall of lets say £2M wages to be conservative next year, plus the £150k PA rent their going to pay to Northampton. The exercise is going...

    Administration Meeting 2/8/13 Official Thread

    CVA not signed. Appleton will liquidate CCFC Ltd by 4pm and we'll be on -15pts by 4:01pm. FL will hand Golden Share to Otium by 4:02 so we can start the season "properly" and all under one ownership / company. Sixfields for a few years till the council go and hand SISU the Ricoh on a plate for...

    Telegraph says we have bought the Brandon speedway site.

    Too many NIMBY's in Brandon. They hate the fact that theirs the speedway there which brings a few thousand people every week. They'll be up in arms at the thought of 10K a week turning up to a football stadium. Will never happen.

    IF (?) agreement is reached and we're back at the Ricoh...

    You realise that without the council's help all those years before SISU even bought us the club wouldn't have even had the Ricoh to play at don't you? And you also realise that for 4 years SISU were quite happy to pay the cost of the rent without ONCE questioning it, that was all until their...

    Bomb Squad not even allowed treatment?

    I guess you'd say that if you hadn't earnt £4M+ (conservative guess before tax) from your career so far and really needed that extra £500k. But Sheffers has earnt that much. If I were offered 20% outright of my possible earnings to the date I retire (say 65) right now and gamble I could get a...

    Bomb Squad not even allowed treatment?

    Rumour is that it's 20% offer of wages owed for duration of contract. If that's the case and he's on £6k a week then he's turned down a £125k payout and the opportunity to play weekly elsewhere to earn himself another £500k at SISU's expense.

    Bomb Squad not even allowed treatment?

    His reasoning on Twitter as to why he didn't take the offer and stick out the 2 years was to keep having the income to look after his daughter & pay his bills, which is a fair comment.... if he hadn't earn't £20k a week at Blues for 3 years and £10K a week at CCFC for god knows how many years...

    Bomb Squad not even allowed treatment?

    Jennings, Malaga, Dunn and Cody (who's obviously now gone too).

    Bomb Squad not even allowed treatment?

    Probably explains why Bell took the payout and went to County as he couldn't afford a personal physio the amount of time he uses one :D

    Phone call from CCFC

    Yep, we have a family friend who works in the "shop". They hire a van every morning and evening to ferry the stock between Ryton and Tescos... absolute dire set up.

    Phone call from CCFC

    A lot of businesses call from behind blocked numbers. I know my company does when we call out to customers. If it's the office / shop staff that are making the calls then I'd guess that they're based out at Ryton as it either there or working off of the barrow in Tescos for those staff at the...
