    Big spending

    Of course an investment like that is a huge gamble. But what is the alternative. From experience it seems the only alternative is to lose the same amount of money but over a much longer period and with zero chance of promotion. Surely a gamble is better than a sure-fire loss??

    Ben Turner's dig at Sisu

    When was the last time you heard a player make a comment about the off the field situation in connection with his move? I agree with marcusp that this seems to be Ben's comparison of the off the field situations at Cov vs Cardiff.

    big news in the telegraph tomorrow?

    Problem is that we clutch at straws don't we. We were desperate to get rid of Robinson and co. and hoped SISU would be better. Now we are desperate to get rid of SISU and are hoping that GH will be better. It's a case of better the devil you don't know. Surely our luck has to change though...

    Question for Ken Dulieu

    He was on the radio the other week patronising the fans with comments like "Would you accept a bid of one pound for your house?" Well let's consider extending the analogy that he chose. "Would you go running to The Sun newspaper with a written offer from someone who expressed an interest in...

    Two scenarios

    Scenario #1 GH and the rest of the bidders are incompetent fools who had no idea about the conflict of interest arising from Sam Allardyce's directorship. Scenario #2 GH and the rest of the bidders were intending to rectify the problem arising from Sam Allardyce's directorship in the event...

    Who's better Nathan Redmond or Gael Bigirimana

    Err, how about Nat Lofthouse, the Lion of Vienna? BTW - I have seen Raddy Avramovic quite a bit in recent years as he is the national team manager of Singapore. Decent manager, but s*** keeper.

    Is CCFC worth more than £1 ?

    When RR was appointed he stated to the press that the club would not make a profit until it reached the premiership. So clearly those losses were budgeted in the original plan that he had with SISU. The big mistake that SISU made was that it did not invest enough upfront but instead fed the...

    SISU Out Protests Plan Thread.

    Some great ideas here. Also, we need more numbers - 100s rather than dozens - so that the protestors are not intimidated by the security goons in the orange bibs.

    Admin is a better option than SISU

    I suspect that CCFC is a very small portion of the overall SISU portfolio. I don't know this for sure so would appreciate the info of others. If CCFC is indeed a very small portion of the overall SISU portfolio, I doubt that Joy Seppala would have the time or inclination to deal directly with...

    "Ken Dulieu to take matter up with Royal Mail"

    It wouldn't surprise me if that is exactly what happened. Also, I wonder how many days per week Clouting is working given that he is based in Ipswich. What do the rest of the staff do when the bosses, Clouting and Doolalley, fail to show up in the office? Is it any wonder that the club is...

    Admin is a better option than SISU

    I very much doubt the administration option will happen simply because most of the debt is held by SISU. Administration was much more likely in the pre-SISU era when a large part of the debt was owed to the bank. Sooner or later, I think SISU will sell up. I think the takeover will happen...

    Is CCFC worth more than £1 ?

    Correction - the market value of the equity is zero. The market value of the debt is unknown but I would guess it is around 5 million pounds. There is no way the market value of the debt is as high as the book value. Thus, SISU are going to have to take a bath on a major part of their...

    Is CCFC worth more than £1 ?

    How wrong can you be?!:pointlaugh: The market value of the loans is substantially less than their book value simply because the club's financial position (and its on field performance) are so poor. To put it another way: Greece is currently a going concern, so do you really think that the book...

    SISU Irrationality

    I think we can all draw our own conclusions about the type of person who would make such statements. Clearly this is not someone who is a life long fan of CCFC.

    Clearly you are one of the board - either Doolalley or Clouting. Why don't you go and do one?:mad:
