In view of today's High Court ruling that SISU witheld rent in an attempt to weaken ACL's negotiating position, can the Football League be judged to be complict in further weakening ACL's postion by agreeing to a groundshare and granting the Golden Share to Otium ?
As appaling ad sisu's behaviour is acl were still grossly over charging the club, and their final no room for negotiation offer was still £250k more than the latest offer.
Are you for real ? SISU agreed to the rent and signed a legally binding agreement. Can't blame ACL for that !
If someone wanted to rent a house off me and put down a contract of x amount of money a month i wouldnt then turn round and say, hmmm thats a bit high

For renting the Ricoh
Wasn't that signed way before SISU were here?
When SISU signed to take control of CCFC It was automatically agreeing to the rent....That is the legallity of it all.
Well if ACL / The council care so much about the club and the fans like they say they do then surely it is like charging your own sister 3 times the going rate for rent on a house or something?

An agreed rent which was reduced by 66% not paying the agreed rent ordered by the court to pay rent owed,no rent charged for last three games now offered rent of 150000 still not accepted and ccc acl still in the wrong. I hope we never ask ccc to help us again because I know what the answer will be:facepalm:
@Pugwash...I beg to differ mate, Nobody sells anything (Especially Big Businesses) without a SIGNED RECEIPT for assets, land, or anything of consequence. Imagine being hit with a JR claiming the rent the buyer signed for was too high?!?!? wait a minute.............

Do you not think we were being overcharged? We all acknowledge that rent should have been re-negotiated as soon as they took over.
And of course you can blame ACL and the former owners for the rent deal, they negotiated it.
If you look back, the deal apparently offered was similar to the rent being paid for the last couple of years at Highfield Road, so, a brand new stadium, with potential for 10,000 extra paying customers would not seem overly high. The issue starts when you then can't afford it anymore, which by default leads you to think it's "too high".
Of course, the fact when the deal was originally done, there was an option to base the rent on a league based deal, and the number of attendees as well, meant, with hindsight, the wrong deal was agreed perhaps?
CCFC should have sat down and looked to negotiate this from the outset, when SISU bought the club or when we dropped to league one. Or, they could have focused their attention on the ARVO "management Fees" as they do seem to be obscenely high.... Solve that and the rent isn't such a big issue.
Of course, we all know it's never been about the rent.

Think they're on plan C D or even E at the momentThe time to renegotiate was when they took over. They would have known and would have had better leverage when considering buying.
They didn't because they thought that we would fly back into the PL and then the rent would be about right.
There plan didn't work so plan B is in operation.
