This is a massive week for sisu but don't think I can face sitting through another day of spin and tit for tat in court. Are you going Don?
What's happened to Gaunty? I know he "left" talk sport???

Michael, you are aware that you are one of the providers of 'spin' in this whole saga don't you? You can use the term as pejoratively as you want but we are all putting our own 'spin' on events and if you are tired of it then it's probably because of all the effort you have put in.
When does the JR start?

Back on radio just signed a contract recently
Got your seat booked next to Les Reid for it?
A few thoughts on the week ahead…
This won’t be so much about the decision that Justice Hickinbottom arrives at as the information that gets read into court. Sure, a decision on whether the council acted within state aid regulations will be useful and could have an effect on resolving this dispute but the main event will be hearing what is read into court re: emails & documents between the various parties connected to ACL.
There could be grounds for civil actions after the hearing and I’d bet dollars to doughnut holes that there will be an appeal from whichever side loses.
No matter what people might try and make out about how boring etc. it is, this will be one of the main outlets for actual information about the background to this whole saga.
There will be a lot of legal back & forth and it can be hard to follow from the public area as you don’t get to see any of the documentation being referred to until it is released (usually after the case).
I’ll be there hopefully tapping away to report back here & on Twitter. If you’re coming along come & say hello. There will no doubt be an interesting collection of people in the public area and you may be able to get a conversation with some of them too

I completely disagree with Rob, it is about the judgement & the judgement only, much of the " information that gets read into court." is basically going to be PR. It is simply not the right way to use the courts if the object of the exercise is to push "a message".
Surely all of the info will be factual?

Here's our preview of tomorrow's hearing for anyone interested:

Think the last sentence in that pre report is what everyone wants!

Can I go for the middle ground?
One thing's for sure, it'll say whether it was a lawful use of funds or not. Thing is, in a wider context that loan can not have followed the rules, but have been the 'right' thing to do... and vice versa of course. Problem is, as anything else isn't within the judgement really, it comes down to people probably picking out whatever backs up their beliefs... as pretty sure there'll be enough mud slung at both parties for some of it to stick, if you want it to stick.
The prelude to more action is not my idea of fun, however.
I don't see how they can read out irrelevant "evidence" in court - whatever your point of view. If SISU have something, then it belongs in a different court on another day.
I don't care who wins or loses as long as the end scenario is that Coventry City are playing at the Ricoh next season!

I think at the warm up game the judge made that quite clear.
Well, we'll see if he gives any of the barristers a red card.
I wonder if people will get as excited as if CCFC score a last minute winner in a cup final like they did at the last one at the sniff of a "win".
