    Manhattan Capital... are they back in town?

    As Grendel said, MSG walked away from negotiations in 2007. Why would they want to resume interest when the club is in an even poorer state than it was then? Then you have to ask yourself - if they did want to acquire an English football club, why on earth would they (or anyone) pick...

    could go two ways.

    Southampton's rescue was such an exception that it should never be mentioned alongside other examples of administration survival. Rumour has it that the charitable, evangelical billionaire only stepped in at the very last second because of the Saints/St Mary's connection.

    CWR phone in On now until 7pm ish

    Hoping Nigel calls in to bring some cheer to a dreary day.

    Losses and Management fees

    Quite! It is not like Senors Robinson and Richardson epitomised transparency ... I seem to remember a confidentiality agreement!

    Elliott and american businessman at the game last night

    No amount of investment would be worth enduring his decorating touch.

    ACL start admin proceedings

    It is feasible that ACL are happy to feed that story to the press to gain favour with the fanbase.

    ACL start admin proceedings

    Had the club entered administration, a ten point deduction would have seen the club drop to bottom of the table with half the season left. Player releases and sales would have followed, meaning relegation to L1 would have been about as nailed-on as it could be. SISU must have had their reasons -...

    ACL start admin proceedings

    Grendel is one of those who has consistently supported SISU's ownership because the alternative would be potential liquidation. Let's be very clear on this issue: administration is what many have wanted for a very long time. Let's see how it plays out.

    Potential "interesting news"?

    Yeah, that's what's done it!

    Potential "interesting news"?

    You must be gutted.

    Upbeat / Downbeat

    I see no reason why not. Pax, go here and take a look at the league table over the past 10 years. Look at the 37 - 38 game stage in each season. You won't find a single team which was six points behind at that stage ever make the playoffs. So you have history not doing us any favours. Then...

    Investors

    As much as we all liked Bigi, it makes plenty of sense to sell a 17 year old kid for the kind of fee that can bring in three or four contributors at this level.

    SISU say they may "get out of town" next week

    The crowd also chanted "There's only one Bryan Richardson" (in a positive way!)

    Upbeat / Downbeat

    Let it go, fella.

    Upbeat / Downbeat

    Neither really. The season has been over for a while (and that was underscored tonight). The big source of interest now is the off-field shenanigans, and hopefully seeing the likes of Callum Wilson flourish over the remaining games.

    Would it effect your working performance

    Not if I was a footballer. Strong individual performance will be noticed by other clubs.

    Leon on loan to Sheff Utd...

    They do? We saw the likes of Westwood, Clingan and Cranie leave for free because SISU didn't sell them fast enough.

    This idea that we need 7 wins from 9 nonsense

    Paxman, look back over the last 10-15 years at Statto. Most of the time, the sixth spot sees an increase in point average between now and the end of the season. Pressure, choking ... doesn't really stand up to scrutiny.

    New manager syndrome

    I'd make a case against it, but it is all a moot point. All the hypothetical toing and froing over the most unlikely of hypothetical scenarios is bonkers. CCFC won't win 10 games in a row.
