Well, that's a start.

kevinleftpeg · Jun 24, 2014

Hoofuckinray........ It's good to talk........

However, I guess the 'light' is only one of those crap 'eco' bulbs like the one in our khazi.
It's tricky trying to read a 1978 Beano Annual when Im having a sit down number. I want a 90watt!

Anyway, just fucking sort something out & stop screwing us fans around!

A chink of light. Hears hoping.

The Gentleman · Jun 24, 2014

Well done Michael! Everything starts somewhere now lets hope this can snowball.

Nick · Jun 24, 2014

Fair play and like I said in the other thread, happy to sent over a crate of beer and apology for doubting if this comes off!

Michael lives with me now so I'll PM you my address for the crate

Otis · Jun 24, 2014

Michael's having my babies, so I think you should divert it Keresley way!

Gint11 · Jun 24, 2014

Great news, just given me a lift. Come on, get an agreement sorted, get us back to the Ricoh for fuck sake. At least then we have our home back that can attract players and 10k + fans back!!!! COME ON

torchomatic · Jun 24, 2014

I think SISU would be happy with 4999 a match.

Grendel · Jun 24, 2014

Let's hope there is actually a deal in place or we can a guess tomorrow's headline.

Senior Vick from Alicante · Jun 24, 2014

If it gives the club a way back to the Ricoh and lets the owners not have to deal directly with ACL or CCC it would work. SISU's pride would not let them come cap in hand but a 3rd party brokered deal keeps their ego intact. Well done Michael

Danceswithhorses · Jun 24, 2014

Didn't see that one coming-but it's very welcome news.
Trying not to read to much into this news and the cancelling of the forum, but are SISU stepping back from the breach as they've found out they've lost the JR, and now have to build a few bridges ?
For all their tough talk eg we batter people in court, we've moved on, we don't posture etc etc etc, have they realised the current loss making Northampton debacle is untenable ?

Sky Blue Pete · Jun 24, 2014

It's labovitch though so could just be saying it and have no intention of doing it

lewys33 · Jun 24, 2014

Positive news, but let's not forget Labovitch's position in the club.

torchomatic · Jun 24, 2014

Well, he would be pretty stupid if so, as Michael would tell us.

Or he could gleefully pour scorn tomorrow over the deal.

skybluetony176 · Jun 24, 2014

Well done Micheal.

its just one of many steps I'm sure but at least it's a step in the right direction.

Don't worry i'm sure there's time for ML to come up with some reason to discount the offer, so then you will be happy.

whats your contingency plan grendull? you do have one don't you?

shmmeee · Jun 24, 2014

Got to be good news. At least it's not a no.

Anything that gets us home at this point.

Grendel · Jun 24, 2014

What are you talking about?

Even when he doesn't make any decisions? I suppose from a PR point of view he could.

sky blue john · Jun 24, 2014

Anyway should it not be Joy phoning Micheal ?
ML is not the decision maker !

You're so clever at telling everyone making an effort to sort things why they're doing it wrong, you must know the right way to do it to be able to take that stance in the first place.

Unless you're admitting you're full of shit off course.

That was my thought...had it come from TF or JS, it would have more weight.

That said, great positive news. I didn't expect this at all, so here's hoping that it leads to a return.

Simon...quick question...can we change grounds mid-season or is there a date that we need to confirm to the FL where we're going to be playing for the forthcoming season?

MichaelCCFC · Jun 24, 2014

I have this very minute txted ML saying we'd b delighted to meet with him (he initially said phone call but given need for absolute clarity of understanding and my need to communicate accurately with kcic colleagues I said email wd be better but a meeting would be better than both). Fingers yet again crossed! (and on a practical point I'm in meetings rest of this afternoon but hopefully will get a positive text and will post an update once free)

Jack Griffin · Jun 24, 2014

So, does this mean SISU have had some bad news (for them) about the JR, I hope so.. I really do.

sylus · Jun 24, 2014

many moons ago there use to be a children's programme called jackanory!..... lol.....

If he rejects the 5,000 crowd tell him that the consortium will up it to 20,000.

Skyblueweeman · Jun 24, 2014

Michael - As has already been posted by others, well done for even eliciting a seemingly positive response. I was a big supporter of the Petition as you know and I'm sorry that Apathy seemed to get the better of that.

One of lifes great traits is Perserverance...which you Sir have in adundance. Well done mate.

WM

PS. If none of this comes off and we're still 'elsewhere' in 12 months, I take the above back you loser!!
PPS. Keep up the good work.

so you do have a contingency plan. presumably you also have the financial backers organised to be able to do this and can answer all the other questions you and Nick were demanding answers to from Micheal?

Just kidding, you may well have a point. The only way sisu may release the hostage to its family is if someone pays the rent and matchday costs for them, who knows.

But even you must admit this is progress. Will it come to anything? who knows, you never can tell so long as there is a sisu element involved. either way surely Micheal deserves praise for getting this far in the face of adversity?

Kingokings204 · Jun 24, 2014

2 points I would like to make.

1. Wasn't the verdict of the jr out today to the relevant parties if not already?

2. At least someone is talking and it is a positive first step on a journey of 1 million steps. Has to start somewhere. This is the breakthrough in my opinion.

I hope you don't mean Michael is going to leave his wife and run off with Mark Labovitch

dongonzalos · Jun 24, 2014

Has anyone got where it was stated that the two parties would hear prior to W/C 30th.

I was under the impression the barristers would only find out then when your honour was passing through Birmingham and it was more likely to be Tuesday.
