Was the stadium collapsing in Brazil yesterday based on Sisu showing what will happen to the Ricoh if the Council don't comply? Might as well be if that's the thought process into it.

But according to Sisu they had agreed a deal for 50% stake before it was rejected by the counci.
I didnt know they were still around. To say they are in the pocket of SISU as some sort of 5th columnists though is hysterical fantasy. To be fair to this group, their one protest outside the Council house did seem to stir Ann Lucas into meeting Joy Seppala. Something new was needed - The club wont talk to the trust lets not forget so if you think mediation is the only way out of this, then meeting Ann Lucas can only be positive.

If you listened to the podcast last week where the guys had the meeting with the council they (the council chaps, can't remember their names off the top of my head) were clear that no veto either formal or informal had come from the council. What had actually happened was that a pre-requisite of the deal was that SISU purchased the Higgs share of ACL but SISU failed to do so despite Higgs agreeing a price with them. If you recall PWKH stated that a deal was agreed but SISU never came back to complete and haven't yet paid Higgs legal fees which they had promisesd to cover.

She was always going to meet if asked.. Anne issued invitation after invitation, finally Seppala accepted one.
This group has had no discernable influence on the council to date.

I will have to listen to that at some point.
oh ok then, I stand corrected - seems they are as toothless as the Trust then.

Think its lost most of us now. There seems to be more protest groups than supporters going to Northampton at the minute.
Maybe its time to start of new thread/sticky to keep track of all this

they care about our club and are trying to do something, not toothless.
it was your assumption that it stired ann lucas into life when she had already twice previously invited joy diversion for talks with no reply from joy. if it stired anyone, you would have to say it was joy. not only did she reply at the 3rd offer for talks, she agreed.

that could work both ways chief. ann lucas could be telling them all about the packet of polo's that joy offered for the freehold as JR should have been over.
lets see if the meeting gets put back a couple off hours following les rieds tweet that JR has been put back to 2pm
Just trying to be impartial and think clearly- bit difficult if you think Joy is the antichrist

why do you think joy is the antichrist?
Are they connected to the peoples front of judea? or is it the judean peoples front!!
Never said the trust didnt care, Im sure they care a lot. They just havent affected anything. if your next Trust board meeting starts with a trivia quiz, it doesnt bode well does it...

My problem with CBTR, is that imho, they claim to be non-aligned and impartial, but only ever seem to criticise one side.
I would have more respect for them if they admitted that their raison d'etre was to pressure the council into selling the arena to SISU.
Regarding their question about how the local business economy, pubs, shopping park, buses, etc have been affected since the Sky Blues left for Northampton - that is important, but again it is being asked, to criticize one side only ie CCC for not selling the Ricoh.
Let's see them give BOTH sides a hard time

No, they're claiming impartiality, but are only following certain avenues, ie only criticizing one side ie CCC

They must be impartial and fair because Mr Reid says they are, and he should know because he supports them with his stories in the paper.
I seriously don't think you will find an impartial person with an opinion on this situation anytime soon outside of the Judges chamber at the Court.

One thing against SISU is they had a chance to buy a share in the stadium and didn't take it. It is not like the council have always refused to sell to them?
They are claiming dirty tactics by CCC when their own dirty tactics didn't work. It's a bit like claiming someone dived for a penalty after their leg has been put in plaster!

My point being about exploring the other avenues is that may other people and groups have tried for answers from Sisu and neither of us can tell whether their lying or there is some truth. What is the point in being repetitive?
That I understand, however with the council making cut backs on jobs and what not it is an important question to be asked whether it is to criticize the Council and not selling the Arena or not.
