You may be right about the club losing less at sixfields with their reduced costs ( and a bit of luck - Arsenal away, selling Leon Clarke and Callum Wilson ). But the 50 million - even if maybe some is a tax loss/ shuffle - will not come back and will hurt.
There is no chance though, of building a football team capable of promotion in this low budget scenario.
It's not really £50 million though is it? Nowhere near I would say.
sisu's lawyer said that in court. No doubt he was truthful, or do you think that Joy would have instructed him to tell porkies?
WE'd have just about broke even on the low rent offer at the RICOH,without the Callum money ,turnover circa £6.5-7M.
Judge kept citing £40M??:thinking about:
Lawyer 50 million.
Rubbish. I think SISU and the FL are above embarrassment and unfavourable headlines.
I think it has replaced "sisu apologist" by the ignorant majority on here.
Ignorant Majority ?
That is similar to the " Everybody in the world is mad except me " comment

Sometimes I wish you would listen to what Joe Dolce say's.

It wouldn't help.
a) We've seen how ridiculously divisive such a boycott is. It detracts from actual issues and allows people to turn against those who haven't caused this - that's utterly pointless and ridiculous and, indeed, falls helps out the protagonists rather than hinders;
b) You'll never get 100% for anything; why badger people with a different view?
c) It looks like apathy. Have to always consider not what you want it to look like, but what it might look like also.
d) Proactive looks better. A better pressure would be if thousands were milling around Northampton, Coventry... London. Desperate to watch a football match but unable to do so even if they wanted to, as the capacity is finite and below what it should be.
Pragmatically, a far more constructive protest would be one that seeks to include as many as possible (next Saturday, for example) rather than exclude.
Why? As you are part of the ignorant majority?
The real money lost is far less. It's a daunting stat that the cost of being in sixfields is probably £2 million tips and with proper financial management the club could lose less money than they had at the Ricoh.
As soon as the administration order was raised I said Pandora's box has opened and no one knows the hell that will be unleashed. This will run and run.
You'd be, errrm.... silly not to do it for a TV game though.
Thing is, things need a build-up though, and anything we do is on the fly. Should be, now, thinking about what the Christmas event is.
You don't know how the gamble has worked as you don't know the timescale she will be prepared to work to. Say its 4 years -what then?
4. Start a campaign of contacting known or suspected SISU investors, drawing their attention to the current position."
True, however each year that goes by with ACL intact is another year of pouring investors' money into the failing Sixfields idea. Removing the club was her trump card and it hasn't worked, with no imminent sign of it doing so. If the club were such a key part of ACL's business that they could not survive without it then we would have seen tangible signs of that.
Her trump card failed when CCC refinanced the loan. This is why Timothy says it will go in front of 3 judges.
At least he would be able to hear the result in stereo.

I would say in surround sound with 3
The only one that will make any difference IMO - or more specifically, publically targeting any investors. Many won't care of course, but there could be a few that would be averse to any negative publicity.
Unless, of course, there are no investors to contact.
The uncomfortable truth is the investors would be a lot happier with the past year's efforts than those previously too.
This is, after all, the way SISU operate. Death or glory.
You know what you're getting into when you invest somewhere like SISU. What you want to see is strong, firm hands pushing to the edge of brinkmanship. What you're prepared to do is accept the risk that goes with it.
