I don't understand where this 'you just want to hand them everything' idea is coming from. They should pay and pay what is negotiated with independent valuations involved. Like it or not, they have a hold on our club so we have to break that or work with them. The bottom line is that, despite...

Good question. If there are changes in the council attitude or personnel at the election, 50-50 If we wait until the Judicial Review and Sisu 'win' 20-80 If we wait until the Judicial Review and Sisu 'lose' 0 This is part of the reason we want to keep all sides under pressure (by pushing...

I've known Les for 20+ years. We met at college. As far as our campaign is concerned, he gave a bit of advice about media contact when we were first launching – with the OK from his editor – and that is it. I saw him last at the high court case and, before you ask, the only thing I know about...

Just to lay all this point out from the start as there's quite a few interesting twists, turns and spins that have taken place. This all originated here: From my PoV this sounded slightly accusatory. Nothing offensive or rude but my implication (could be wrong) would be that Jack Griffin...

Or maybe the obvious thing is a) a major release of documents and b) a court case has just finished & c) council elections are coming up? "...a sudden flurry of activity around Les Reid…" Jesus, the guy's a local hack not Rupert Murdoch or the Illuminati! "...word for word repetition of...

Morning all. Just to let you know I'm just putting together a reply that should clear up any confusion etc. regarding things then I'll finish off combing through 3 (or is it 4?) threads that I'm trying to keep tabs on to come back with some answers on things that have been raised. I've cleared...

Unfortunately I'm in the cinema now so I'll catch up in everything in the morning and happy to fill in any gaps. BTW, for anyone trying to spin it another way, "spoken to" = anything from an official minutes council meeting to a telephone conversation and anything in between. Nothing...

Time to jump in…I was hoping for a couple of days off TBH ;) I've got nine pages to catch up on and no time to do that until the morning but I'll clear up what seems to be the burning question. (my emphasis added) I've had conversations with both Paul Harris & Peter and when I spoke to Paul I...

It was £2m after due dil. Apparently cash flow and the Compass contracts were major problems. (I haven't seen anything in writing but have head that Compass get a guaranteed income. If that is true it is completely nuts.) Don't forget that they were going to be paying off the mortgage leaving...

We've spoken to all sides in this and will continue to do so, so yes to talking to people from the Sisu side. And the Council/Higgs/ACL side. And a few other sides too. Bit like a 50p piece ;) Anyhow, the 'Sisu view' is that the new stadium is the way to go because they don't see how a deal can...

Lots of interesting scores around the country. We might not be playing at a Conference stadium next season after all...

Sorry! Trying to keep up with the match commentary, four threads here, various other matches around the country and agreed Saturday chores for my wife. On top of campaign duties. I'd draw a line between the Ranson/Dulieu/Onye Igwe era and the current one. If we had Waggott, Pressley & co. at...

As did a PwC report according to the court. Good question. The way we look at it is this: Sisu etc. are convinced that there is no deal to be done with ACL / CCC following what has gone on over the past 18 months so have to build a new stadium... but … would never turn down an option for a...

You are totally right about the timescales and so forth. It was the disclosures and result of the recent court case that gave us the final signal that this was worth going ahead with. To be clear about a few things if we do run candidates: If a party then we would essentially be a...

There's parallel conversation going on in the original Vote Them Out campaign launch thread so here's part of a reply I gave there which might add some more info.

No. Nominations only opened this week and possibly standing candidates is only part of the campaign. (See the original link at the start of this thread.) And this is exactly why we've launched this campaign. Residents have tried and been fobbed off. Just for the record, we didn't originate...
