And how do you propose they become self sufficient, as all we see is players sold and no adequate replacements provided within the playing squad, this has been a recurring cycle during their tenure, when it is plainly obvious, 1.5-2m investment into the playing squad, will get you out this league, gaining 5m plus from gaining championship status.
Mock it as much as you like, but they're right the Club does need to be self sufficient, not every owner will have the money to throw at us and FFP rules have been introduced to stop the latter.

Isn't advertising done by the game or season? Would expect so in which case the lack of advertising isn't down to people thinking we're moving, more to do with a general distrust of SISU, it not being cost effective or not wanting to be associated with the CCFC 'brand'.
Would self sufficiency work even if we achieved it? It sounds great and we certainly should be able to get out of L1 and into the Championship but where from there. You're allowed to lose millions in that division, not to mention teams with parachute payments, how would we be competitive with them if we are on a self sufficiency model?
It's tough as logic says you don't propose to lose millions every year as that isn't sustainable but equally we can't operate in isolation to everyone else and if they're all prepared to lose millions and we aren't we will then have one of the lower player budgets and struggle to be competitive. Not sure there's an answer to that until the authorities sort things out.

We couldn't compete in the championship under a no-loss model, that only works in leagues one and two.
The fact they want to run a self sufficient club, not reliant on owners pumping money in, suggests that Sisu will be here for the long haul.

That article was about as good as Fisher's brilliant line at the start of the season - "we'll stick to what we're good at, building good relations".
The start of the article talks about building trust and clear communication - are they having a fucking laugh?
Mind you, RFC will probably cream himself when he reads through that lot.
The club will never be self sufficient under sisu, they have devastated the ticket revenue, the merchandising revenue, the sponsorship revenue and the corporate/hospitality revenue, they have alienated the fanbase, lost us our ability to own our own stadium for any reasonable sum of money and the club will continue to run up large debts in interest and management fees. Yes they have cut operating costs but those cuts have come at the expense of the club now having almost no assets, a playing squad worth peanuts and not good enough to get out of this league (upwards anyway, getting out downwards is a significant possibility) a club shop with nothing to sell, a ticketing system where you can't get through on the phone and the whole thing dies a complete death at any big game(not that there are many of those these days) we just simply aren't going to be self sufficient under sisu and every action they take makes it less and less likely.
Mind you try telling this to the new stadium lovers on here.

Seriously, who the f*ck are these new stadium lovers you bang on about?
Aprt from RFC I havent seen anyone buy it, no one believes it well ever happen, so why be so devisive about a group of people that dont even exist?
Try reading all the fucking posts on here and you will see. Sick of where could it be ? and people wanking over Garlicks tweet to keep people hanging in hope of nothing.
Well done .. it didn't take long for RFC aka Fisher to come on here.
Firstly the 17,000 "fans" who came for the Gillingham game could make the effort more to attend games..

We will only get out of this league once the turnover from revenue is substantial enough for us to spend that amount of money on players.
When you say £1.5-£2m on players, do you mean on wages, or transfer fees?
Just because we throw money at players does not mean we will get out of this league.

You start treating your fans properly and you will find they will return. Fans can be surprisingly tolerant as long as they don't feel they are lied to or treated with contempt. If the club do as they say in this mission statement watch the fans slowly come back.
If they can achieve break even they can stick around for years just in the hope that something miraculous happens and they get their money back somehow.

You are putting the cart before the horse, no one is obligated to attend, the owners have to provide a product that people want to see and will pay for, they are not doing that.
Correct, Football is an entertainment business, the fan base is still their .. just hiding away waiting for something to change at the top, and a better product to be provided making the working class man / families to attend again.
