Many of us were disgusted that so many (or maybe not in this case) felt the need to go and support a move to Northampton, but that was their choice apparently and so shouldn't be criticised for it.
You spoiled my punch line - the only people he's spoken to is Steve and Jan and they swooned at his feet.
An eye witness account reported in the Daily Mail-congratulations Sherlock.
Didn't stop you and others them they were wrong.

Where does it say he threatened them with his dog? Id be careful if I were you as I don't think you will find much support for that claim from any party involved.
Some people just can't see past SISU, any action which is seen as a blow to SISU is a victory in there eyes and should be supported regardless of the action taken and of wider consequences of said action.
Ah ok, so you believe the eye witness account reported in the Daily Mail regarding the balloons, but not the dog.
Good to see you look at everything with a balanced view.
The balloon tying was later admitted to by PWKH I believe.
Where have I said he did?
Was this when our esteemed chairman threatened to have his dog maul someone?
I said it was wrong, I didn't say they were disgusting. There is a difference.
So the eyewitness account proved to be true?
Oh dear.
You may not of, but plenty did, and not many spoke out against it.

They are the reason that ACL was made available to Wasps so they are due the lion's share of the blame. I don't blame Wasps for snapping this up as they are owned by the same kind of business people that we are and it's a fantastic deal, but I hate that they are here. Call it childish, it's just how I feel about it.
The people branded "disgusting" are unlikely to be die hard CCFC fans and therefore probably expressed very little opinion on those that went to Northampton.
These are people that done/said nothing to those that attended Northampton but have now been insulted.
Yes I would agree more with that. No one can blame wasps for taking this deal. Yes it sucks big time for their fans and franchise sport which I hate but it's a business and as a business deal it's once in a lifetime deal.
If sisu had half a clue then we would be the leaseholders and not wasps. This is why I hold resentment for them. We have paid more rent over the years and it's our stadium ffs. Also many legal bills and court dates. All these things together it should be ours. Either sisu didn't want the lease hold or its "serious mis management" as I think the high court judge called it.
This is why I blame sisu 99% because they hold all the answers and are fully accountable for our club. Look at when they took over to now in those 7 years and where we were and are now.
So the eyewitness account proved to be true?
Who's the best? A baloon or a dog? There's only one way to find out. FIGHT!!!!!
If they are not ccfc fans, they won't be on this forum, and there will have not read the comments and therefore not be insulted.

You mean its ok to insult someone so long as its behind their back?
Simple fact is, you either agree with the individuals right to go to whatever events they wish without criticism, or you don't.
If you think those that went to Sixfields shouldn't be judged, then you shouldn't judge those that go to see Wasps. To do anything else is hypocritical.
And you were critical of those that went to Sixfields, yet you're ok with the wasps thing. I also think there's a suttlw difference between following THEIR club and supporting THEIR team, and jumping on a franchise bandwagon.

I have defended the Higgs before with their £6.5m going some way to keeping the club afloat.
I'm never overly keen on it not being the done thing to question quite why they got involved with the club then either. It wasn't exactly random..
From a sky blue tinted perspective it was a great gesture.
Not sure it was you know, based on the board members, and the motivation of short term capital in the hope of a fluked promotion to dig out a hole...
If it's a great gesture, then perhaps we ought to start praising ARVO giving us a load of cash loaned in exchange for a charge over Ryton...
We should praise the people that own us, for lending us money (and charging us interest), to cover losses caused by their incompetence?
Can't see you getting much support for that one NW
They gave us a short term cash injection when needed because it was in the interests of the board at the time for them to do so, rather than it being in the club's interests...
So if I'm reading that correctly your saying it would have been better for the club to go under in 2003 rather than Higgs and CCC get involved?
If that's the case I don't disagree with you, but then you also have to ask, off the pitch, how is the situation now any worse than it would have been then?
From what I can see the situation we are in now is no different to where we would have been without a bailout in 2003.
I do think it would have been better.
We also actually had assets then. Not only the Ricoh project, but also the option to buy back Highfield Road - an option we took, incidentally, and the cost was similar to that paid by Higgs for the Ricoh share (we instead sold it straight back to the developers for an extra £million to pay the bills).
Problem is, the family silver's been sold by everyone in the desperate hope of a lucky payday down the short-term line, and in doing so it leaves us with progressively less than nothing.
Good points.
