Now we are told the players are all meeting the manager on Sunday when they will be told if they have new contracts etc. Is it possible that at the last minute (after all, they now have form for doing things unexpected at the last minute) the players will be told some bad news? Your contracts are now void, bye, OR, you are all released from your contracts ... Join the list of creditors.
Would you bet against a nasty surprise?

Not like it hasn't happened before, Coleman told a load of players they weren't needed the next season just before playing Charlton away.

The master motivator at work.

That's what people want though surely? People want SISU to go, and SISU going means liquidating CCFC Holdings surely? What other exit option do they have, because nobody will buy it from them. If SISU go we all rejoice, but we must also understand all staff, players included, would be laid off. Of course CCFC Ltd could, and probably would, rehire certain key members of staff, but many of the players would have to walk.

Anything possible but sureley the adminstrators would want to keep assets. Pompey had a mass exodus one way or another.

It is going to have to happen. If SISU go the entire workforce is laid off and CCFC Ltd via the administrator will have to cherry pick who they re-employ. Clearly, without the SISU subsidy, there will not be sufficient income simply to rehire everyone and the administrator will have to ensure the club operates within its means while any takeover went through (which could take months). Sadly, this would mean a weakened playing squad for next season, but that is inevitable.

Yeah but Sisu pocket all the money and don't invest anything LOL etc.

Either way we are pretty much struggling next season.

You categorically cant know this is fact. Have you seen them? I doubt it. Stop stating your opinion like it's fact.

Will have to be a strong guy to pull the rug from under the likes of Fleck, Bell will do a stepover before being injured for 6 months with 2nd degree carpet burns.

Think there is a lot more water to pass under the bridge before Sisu are gone.....their claim for a judicial review would indicate stalling tactics , in order to dissolve interest from any investors, thus leaving themselves as the only potential purchasers of CCFC ltd.

they still could be trying to distress ACL, financially, by removing any investment and income streams from football matches.

I wonder if their strategy is to make us all so fed up, with long term deterioration of our club, that eventually there are so few fans left interested, and they can do what they want to the club and Arena, because we will all want to just see an end to this sorry mess.

It may get worse, before it gets better.
