You assume right, but I prefer to go with friends.
If I had no friends I would take up your offer.
That's odd - you last stated you hadn't got free tickets and said such an offer never existed.
Strange.

Not interested in the Ricoh - Gospel
Building a new stadium - Bullshit
It's amazing that a very simple question that just requires a yes / no answer has generated hundreds of posts across various threads from people desperately trying to defend the council without being able say they did actually offer the same deal to CCFC that they offered to Wasps.
I would suggest that if the answer to the question was yes we would have had a statement to that effect long ago from CCC or at the very least they would have got it out via the Telegraph or CWR.
No they were never offered it because they never bid
Put to you very simply hundreds of times
Merry Xmas you stubborn git!
In the ann Lucas statement she said repeatedly for sepalla to get in touch with her, pick up the phone, door always open etc.
But sepalla never did...
Bottom line Sisu didn't want to buy into owning the Ricoh by fair means they wanted it for nothing basically.
Sisu won't build a new ground either because hedge funds don't do that. We are stuck with them until they find a way out and at the same time getting their investors money back.
I've got visions of you on a a first date with a girl, taking her out for a drink, standing awkwardly at the bar in silence, staring intensively at her, with mantra going through your head
"Must not offer to buy her a drink until she asks me to buy her one, if she does not ask, I cannot offer....."
I'd like to know if ACL ever told the football club about the wasps deal when they were negotiating a return home and saying that they (both parties) wanted and needed to rebuild bridges (said smiling whilst preparing the knife)
Anyway it's Christmas, so back to the family.

Name me a pawn shop that would do that!Perhaps if you were a pawn shop selling someone else's goods, it would be good to just double check before selling their prized family heirloom engagement ring before selling it to some other charlatan at a knock down price....

Thats reinforcing my point. I would've took the first deal that matched my expectations - I wouldn't go & ask someone else if they would match the offer unless there was something additional for me in doing so. I can well imagine that ACL/CCC/Higgs would be more than happy to reach a deal - & if it meant not having the stress of dealing with our owners any further into the bargain - because all that would mean with SISU is more grief in some guise or another...so I'd have been shocked if they'd done anything different than rip the bidder's arm off!you mean the blöke who says he's buying another anyway and suing you? You'd rather sell it to him?
I live in Southampton. If I REALLY needed to be in Edinburgh first thing in the morning & the guy with the car said he'd take me. I'd be eternally grateful. If the journey meant I had to sit in the back seat of a mini with his two Great Danes licking my face all the way & he took me via London, Bristol, Norwich, Manchester, Carlisle & Newcastle in that order - I would still be eternally grateful for the lift...but do all I could to avoid a lift from him in the future; not recommend him to anyone else (unless I hated them); & I'd definitely keep away from him & his dogs.Probably if you have been going on about how much you love him every five minutes and that he should never drive other cars and he belongs in yours
No, you obviously haven't read it properly:
The £27m Liberty Stadium was built in 2005 with the Swans and the Ospreys both playing there.
The clubs pay a peppercorn rent to the Swansea Stadium Management Company (SSMC) - a body running the stadium which is a partnership between the council and the two clubs.
The clubs also contribute over £1m a year to the running costs of the stadium with any profit made being returned to the teams and the local authority.
It quite clearly says "the clubs", ie suggests that between them.

The Liberty Stadium, which is run by Swansea Stadium Management Company (SSMC) on behalf of the council, had more than half a million visits in 2012/13 and generated income of £3,103,936. Swansea City FC contributed £1,306,544 of this sum, with the Ospreys chipping in £207,450.

Must be some creative accountancy as this is from page 15 of the 2012/13 accounts and swansea fc clearly took out £6m.
There is no deal of the £1.3m or the £200k in the accounts.

But it doesn't show anywhere that Swansea took out 6m. Like I said earlier in the thread it says purchase invoices. And unless this is making 100% profit it will not be anywhere near 6m. IIRC it can be used to cross reference all other incomes for different uses.
There is also no evidence anywhere they pay £1.3 million in fees either - they pay nothing like that.
There is one article that suggests both clubs have to contribute towards stadium management losses and to ensure it remains solvent.
SISU having had an option for the club to buy back into the stadium that was built for the club....ultimately failed, they chose the wrong stratergy.
It would be vey interesting how the formula for that option worked. It was generally accepted to be around £10m, PWKH confirmed that was about right on here. Given that Wasps have paid Higgs £2.7m for the same 50% it would seem the formula was heavily weighted in Higgs favour.
