Higgs believed that they had a case and judging by the fact that the judge gave it the time of 2 days IIRC then they at least had an argument. How long did the counter claim get? Did it even make an hour. You're also conveniently ignoring the size of the counter claim meaning it HAD to go to crown court greatly increasing both parties costs. Again, given how quickly the counter claim was kicked out so quickly what effect could it have on Higgs other than costing them more money?
So are you saying it would not be worth £6 million on the open market?
Interesting.
I'm not ignoring anything, but that's like saying that SISU must have had a point about the JR because of the amount of court time it received. SISU's actions were to get information. To suggest they were 'distressing' a local children's charity is nonsense.
I'm more suprised that no one thinks that 30K in fees on a deal that never happened is ludicrous... even more so for a charity.
So your saying that if ACL had off gone bump Higgs would have been able to recover it's investment in full enabling it to invest this money into the numerous projects its involved in to help the people of Coventry and the wider area? I doubt that, so they were being stressed.
Peow.
It's worth whatever Higgs will accept for it.
You keep deflecting and confirming my original statement though.
So the stressing was caused as a by product of a search for the smoking gun that clearly doesn't exist. Oh that's OK then. You should have made that clearer sooner.
You just said it was being distressed as it WOULDN'T BE getting its full return back IN THE EVENT OF ACL GOING BUMP.
I'm not deflecting I am asking you what its worth - of you are saying what Higgs want I fail to see how the low bid was distressful - it's what they believed the value to be. Fact is you do t know its worth on the open market do you?
I think the government has far more important things to deal with than football governance. Oh and the hypocrisy of moral football fans really is something. Face it fans care not about morals, financial stability only results. If results are right nothing else ever matters.
Superficially, you might accept that but dig a bit deeper and you realise that sport is about much more than winning.
Why else did Thierry Henri plaster Dublin with a poster saying "sorry"?
I bet you're gutted everybody is more interested in football again now. I don't blame them. How many private companies would want a public forum with an MP in the real world?If only openness & honesty could be the order of the day, but I'm afraid that isn't the SISU way.

However even a behind closed door meeting with the interested MP's would be better than nothing..
Did he??????
Prior to his official apology, an Irish journalist made a huge poster with a proposed apology and a line for Henry's signature.
The poster was placed outside the stadium in Barcelona, where they knew it would get a lot of attention. It did, especially when Henry himself drove past it:
