So what do you know?
So ACL were using the Ricoh as a cash cow? IIRC CCC refinanced the mortgage on the Ricoh. When the morgage was taken out interest rates were much higher. So with a lower amount to pay they were able to offer a much lower amount. We were in admin so they had to by law go through the administrator. Looks like SISU told him not to accept. Instead they tried for a judicial review. Remember even the judge said they were trying to send ACL to the wall to get the Ricoh for peanuts? Why didn't they enter talks to try and sort something out if they wanted to?
There are two sides involved in this. One side wants to talk. One side wants the Ricoh for peanuts. Yet you blame who?
All the shit behind the scenes didn't just appear when Robins took over, neither did it appear at the end of last season, it's brewing to so many levels over the last few years, Mark Robins new what job he took on and did very well however when Robins left on the pitch we looked good, off the pitch normal service was in order.
So why hasn't Ann Lucas met with Joy Seppala or Nikki Sinclaire if by what you have said "One sides wants to talk" seems like the one side that wants to talk isn't the one you expect.
But did he really know how bad things were when he took over?
He obvously didn't do his homework too well then did he?

Are you saying she don't want to meet Joy? Can prove you wrong easily if you like.
Joy has said there is one price they will pay. Nothing else. No thoughts for our club or fans. At least she has fooled some of our fans.
Of course with Sisu not readily filing accounts, and having a web of companies moving assets and debts around it's hard to know the 'full truth'. Although most would view this set up is for their benefit rather than the club's.
Big picture, obviously revenue has dropped like a stone over the 5 Sisu years in charge with gates halving and following relegation and this Northants nonsense. No doubt they have tried to balance the books by selling pretty much every asset we have...
But let's be clear balancing the books in Div 3 or 4 or non league or whatever, isnt business success (as some on GMK seem to believe). A key part of any successful business is Growth. Balance the books in the Championship fair enough, but reduce the club's value by a half or a third, with little infrastructure to support future growth is failure. Sisu's failure.

I don't blame Ann Lucas for not wanting to meet with Nikki Sinclaire.
Apart from being able to do nothing about the situation, Ms Sinclaire has become SISU's biggest fan and is making claims that even Fisher would be ashamed of. For all the good it would do, Ms Lucas might as well meet Grendel.
And neither did/have a lot of us fans.
Ms Sinclaire has become SISU's biggest fan... Can you please explain as to why you think this?
Big difference to funding losses and maintaining a competitive squad via FPP rules I'm afraid.
Can you please explain as to why you think this?
Oh because she has now stated in the CT after Nikki had spoken to Joy and had offered Anne Lucas the same invitation..

Things all looked good at the beginning, we were all mistaken for believing this would be a good thing, however as time has gone on CCFC has been falling like a shot bird.
No one could have known what we were in store for when SISU took over.
I am sorry, are you claiming this honour?
... because she came out of the JS meeting blaming the council. Giving out propaganda as given to her by JS.
Papers now blasting out £4 charge per person but not relating it to old rent.
She does not understand the detail behind the issues (same as us) but the papers are printing her output as gospel.

Apparently our Leon has joined Wilson of Sheff Utds wish list.
So who will go today? Neither? One? Both?
David Weir is the Sheffield united Manager
Maud and Manset up front Saturday?
1. What is the point in meeting Nikki Sinclaire? - At least someone is getting the answers maybe this is something the Trust should of done, after all we are trying to get the answers, who cares how as long as they are out in the open.
2. What was discussed that was of importance in the meeting Nikki and Joy shared? - Well Joy is the supposed Mystery Woman, however she is willing to meet someone to discuss the situation and the issues involved with owning our club. One reason why Joy won't meet the fans, because they would try and have her head.
3. She offered to meet Joy before. Nothing came of it. - Are you talking about Anne Lucas?
4. There has been an appeal of the JR decision. Why SHOULD there be a meeting when this is going on? - There was me thinking that the more time this goes on the worse it will become, however if you should see a reason why this issue shouldn't be resolved now and to give enough of a reason for the club to return to the City then I'd be happy to hear it.
5. Is it not obvious that a meeting would be pointless? Joy wants the Ricoh at HER price. Council/ACL wont sell it to Joy for HER price - as it would result in a loss for them and the tax payer. Case closed. - Council won't sell it at all, that's the issue not the price. The Council don't trust SISU and vice versa, which I understand however these two group of babies need to sit down and talk like adults or get negotiators in who will talk.
Also Mark Robbins left because when he asked Tim about where the club was going, and what plans they had with regards to FFP etc. he could not give him a straight answer. So Mark said he wanted to go. Nobody can blame him. - No one can blame that however I remember Family Reasons being apart of the reason too, maybe not the biggest one, but enough to make the move.
CCFC: Coventry City have received an inquiry from Sheffield United to take star striker Leon Clarke to Bramall Lane.
The Blades made their call on Saturday night, asking to take the 28-year-old on loan, but were promptly told he’s going nowhere.
The Sky Blues today confirmed the nature of the interest but reiterated Steve Pressley’s intention not to let any player go in the transfer window, either by being sold or otherwise, and that the club would only consider “ridiculous” offers for any of their current first team squad.
The news comes days after United boss David Weir made an inquiry about the availability of Clarke’s strike partner Callum Wilson, when he was told the same thing.
Not at all, but for someone who is just trying to hear the story from both sides and sides more to SISU doesn't mean Nikki Sinclaire has all of a suddeen become Joy's no1 fan.
That statement tells you all need to know so in otherwords Sheffield United do one!
or come back with a better offer.
Which is surely better than accepting the first one (which has been done a number of times previously).
I do hope that what you or I would consider as a 'ridiculous' offer is in the same ball park as what SISU would expect.
You haven't really answered any of my points properly at all have you.
