No, that's SkippyIs Skip in the bush?
I did think surely another skip lorry can move them, then again they might get done for theft / trespassNeeds a good kind city fan who drives one of them big fuckoff trucks to shift them out the way of the gates in the middle of the night:joyful::joyful::joyful::joyful:

Am I right in thinking the rugby club own the land but the football club own the stadium?
Thanks, that’s massively complicated and messy then
From what I can make out the rugby club sold the ground to the football club and wanted to keep playing there but nothing was formally put in place. After a few years the football club put the rent up, to go towards pitch repairs and floodlight improvements, the rugby club refused and blocked access (that was the last time it happened).Am I right in thinking the rugby club own the land but the football club own the stadium?
Just play the game on the Memorial park, any one know what the ground capacity would be ?Coventry City friendly match at Nuneaton Borough could be scuppered by skips.

A decent club with their own ground wouldn't have to play at that Shithole anyway. ?!

After a few years the football club put the rent up, to go towards pitch repairs and floodlight improvements, the rugby club refused and blocked access (that was the last time it happened).
Eventually they came to an agreement which involved the rugby club having to provide training facilities for the football team in return for using the ground. That deal only covered last season. The ground has now been sold and isn't under the same ownership as the football club.
The rugby club say they've been trying to speak to the football club about a ground share but have been ignored, although as the football club don't own the ground that seems a bit pointless. So they've blocked access to the ground again. The owner has basically said they have no legal right to a ground share and he is going to take legal action to preserve access.
More than likely by this time next year a new entrance will be put in which doesn't need access to the rugby clubs land use it.
As a small aside, how can Borough be near bankruptcy yet again?!?
It surely shouldn't be possible to go bust as often as they do!
Is your nephew part time?I’m amazed it doesn’t happen more often the wages they pay the players must outweigh the money coming in, my nephew plays in the same league and gets nearly 30k per year
Is your nephew part time?
If so, nice little extra!
So in a nutshell the rugby club have no contract for a ground share and no legal entitlement to a groundshare so are acting like dicks to try and force the football club, who don't even own the ground, to give them a groundshare.When the stadiun was sold to the football club a contract was put in place to allow the rugby team to play for a small nominal fee. This agreement was with Nuneaton Borough (19**) f.c. which went bust and the contract became void
