i long for the day we have to discuss who to play in right midfeild as opposed to who is a creditor
I never liked RR when he "Captained" SISU in the takeover, but started to warm to him in the latter stages before he and Hoffman left.
As DTD quite rightly states, RR put up Prozone as his investment, and consequently has lost out on millions of pounds.
Has anyone seriously thought why he and Hoffman walked out?...Could it be that they saw what SISU were doing to CCFC and wanted no part of it? My opinion of course.

I've said the same, LBB. Hoff's backers - if indeed there are any - will want their pound of flesh just as much as SISU do. If Hoff had all the money himself then we wouldn't be having this conversation, but unfortunately he doesn't. It's been a year, he should let us know what is happening.
This may surprise a few ccfcway but got to agree with you ......... i am a bit fed up with talking about the finances too !:thinking about:
I also long for the day when users on this forum stop bitching at each other because they're trying to untangle the SISU mess in different ways. It's like being in the playground!
Why not close down the whole forum mate....there wouldn't be a playground to "Bitch in then"...Seriously though, you're right, people are trying to "Put the world to rights" in their own way(Right or wrong) they ARE entitled to their opinions, and the sooner some posters realize this, the better! . Some, like myself, can be easily offended, some have the skin of a rhino! Wouldn't it be easier to use the "Icons on the right" to show others how you mean to "Come across" Makes everything easier.
PS....I make no apologies for some "Icons" that I've used recently.

Bell or Baker. That's why we don't play with wingers!
I think it's fair to say that every single owner in our division did a better job for their club than SISU did last season. I'd like more communication and honesty, as well as a modicum of competence, but I find these people who say "we have the worst owners ever: no point changing them though, the next lot will be just the same" just a bit contradictory!
Accordingly, it's hard to resist the "anyone but SISU" feelings. They are in a large group of people who I think of in this way: anybody but the Tories, anybody but Germany, anybody but Barry Manilow, anybody but Steve Davis, anybody but Man U, anybody but Pete Sampras, anybody but Nick Faldo, anybody but Paul Telfer, anybody but Chris Eubank, anybody but Gary Bailey, anybody but Chris Tavare, anybody but Russell Brand, anybody but Steps, anybody but Alan Shearer.
It's all relative, and most of the above are highly personal hatreds. But relative to any other owners, SISU can be quite objectively described as incompetent, amoral & exploitative failures as owners (custodians) of a football club.
when fit, hould we try christie as a RM with clarke at right back ?

I don't think Christie is technically good enough to play RW
Don't forget we are now talking Third Division status this season - Christie can more than handle this league as wide mid and would take next season by storm in that position.
Also he would operate a t least 20 yards further up the park where his runs would be shorter but more devastating and with less defensive duties.
Credit where it's due we could have a lower league Gareth Bale here - seriously

And a lower league Beckham with David Bell
And a lower league Kieran Dyer with James McPake (the injury thing)
only if Mcpake could PLAY more often we would love him !

To those that disagree-you obviously didn't see him play during the long unbeaten Coleman run that took us to the edge of the play-offs, then? And I assume you didn't realise that at the point he got injured, we went from a 9 game unbeaten run to not winning for 9 games? That's pretty strong evidence to ignore!

Completely agree, I thought he was our best player apart from Westwood when he was last fully fit. An absolute beast of a centre-back, as wonderfully expressed by Gould in his CT interview about the guy. The injuries he's had are heartbreaking, but not quite as much as hearing that he was back to his best at Hibs, but SISU are still going to flog him for 50p

Us old gits compare McPake with the legendary ROY BARRY and that is some complement I can assure you.
Both these guys are utterly fearless and put their heads where most centre halves would't put their boots - both very good in the air for their height and also waste few balls when in possession.
During that 9 game unbeaten run McPake put in awesome performances week after week until injured.
Sorely missed.

This one is better though, McPake is a great player, and Thorn is the best manager we've ever had, and we play some of the most scintillating football ever known to man.
At least we can't have been relegated in this world.
