If Sisu got a decent offer surely they'd consider it, apart from Hoffmans we'll pay you on promotion they've not had oneIn phase 1 yes. He will want the club as he well knows together they are complementary assets. SISU are up against it as they have the Council who despise them and a bidder with a business plan that would wake up even the most half asleep local councillor!
I actually don't mind at this point but I would favour one owner of the stadium and the club.
I’m guessing it was the McEvoy or whoever model.That could happen though, there have been loads of rumours one with sisu linking up with an investor on a 51%/49% basis. I hope the investor is Elon Musk
Nope, Boddy was
I think the contact has been made but they are tight lipped af on it. Maybe a non-disclosure or something.

Apparently interested in Wasps. It suited Wasps to have that story out there in the hope it would either generate interest in them or push anyone looking at them to take action.
Just saying you’d expect some contact before steaming in to buy it if that was the plan. After all we heard when he was interested in Wasps.
Literally just messaged by brother saying all I want if it comes off is a couple of additions in Jan then new contracts for Vik, Cal, Gus and Sheaf.Preparing myself for the worst over here.
I just want us to be able to buy a couple of players in Jan, maybe even keep O’Hare. It’s not too much to ask is it?
Be funny if half the posters on here were actually SISU and they have just been unknowingly arguing with each other for the past decade or so.Simon Gilbert adamant that Mike Ashley hasn’t been in touch with SISU. I wonder if SISU are watching from the sidelines thinking WTF is going on like the rest of us. Joy checking her phone every couple of minutes to see if she’s had a missed call from Mike Ashley.
I don’t agree.I think his plan is to get cbs and then wait until Sisu are ready to sell at cut price. He’ll be in no rush as he holds the stadium card. Why would he pay them millions when everyone knows they aren’t gonna build another stadium. They’ll be backed into a corner eventually but will go down kicking and screaming no doubt.
However, be interesting to see what happens now. So did I read a post earlier that said he’s potentially bought the lease already and now these companies are just going into admin with nothing in them but debt?
If I don’t get a response to my blackmail note, then I’ll post them on here…..So people saying they saw him at the game but any pics?
I don’t agree.
If it is his plan then he’s an idiot because sisu will move us around. Fuck about and take 10 years of his life before they consider selling on the cheap and he knows it.
Yeah I hear what you’re saying but he’s a businessman not a fan. He’s not gonna pay millions to Sisu now as he only buys companies in distress. He might not be desperate for the club and just run the stadium and all that comes with it. If theI don’t agree.

Haas prepared to pay similar if not more for a team in L1 and a stadium without all the bells and whistles.Yeah I hear what you’re saying but he’s a businessman not a fan.

Which was a lot easier to purchase than CCFC as Mel Morris was selling the lot. Sisu repeatedly have said they ain’t selling.I repeat he set aside £50 million for a just relegated Derby
Can't be Ashley, born in WalsallOggy on CWR mad a 'bloke with a Geordie accent' comment referring to future owner (wonder if he's itk?')
If that's the case the Council seem relaxed about CCFC leaving the city again.Yup was going to say the same thing. If that’s the case and Ashley’s stance then there’s no chance. We will just be playing elsewhere.
I’m still waiting for someone to explain why I should have a burning hatred of the Wasps just because…
*checks notes*
…they purchased a ground our owners never had any intention of buying?
Yawn. No one is biting. You're too boring to even be a decent troll.
Off to bed now son, you've got school tomorrow.
Could prove to be wrong on this but the role of the Council in this shouldn't be understated. I'm sure as freeholder they have to rubber stamp any deal. If Ashley acquires ACL and Sisu retain the football club this could be a toxic mix. Surely no one would willingly sign this off as the best offer for the City.
That’s a bite though
I can’t really see that Ashley would buy the stadium without having some kind of assurances from SISU re selling the club
I also don’t think SISU would let it happen. Their goal for years and years has always been the arena. Don’t see that they would just stand by and let someone nip in and take it away when it’s finally availableIt would seem very odd. For better or worse, I don't really see him as someone who wants to make his name in arena management.
The logic being only SISU should be allowed to buy ACL?Could prove to be wrong on this but the role of the Council in this shouldn't be understated.

Obvious issue is SISU do not have the financial resources to complete with Ashley or even NEC ( if they are interested)I also don’t think SISU would let it happen.
