But that's not a positive is it? That's like saying I have a good employer because they give me a chair to sit on! It's the minimum expectation!

ACL didn't want the club to cease, all parties were virtually certain that the FL would grant the share back to Otium regardless of what happened to Ltd. Remember this whole saga began with ACL applying to put the club into administration because Fisher and Labovitch had threatened liquidation...

Spot on, I despair that those who went to Bristol and those that will go to Preston don't see this simple point. "Supporting the lads" is not justification for assisting in the destruction of the link between Coventry and its team.

They've reached new heights in the 'How to be bad at running a football club' stakes, a fantastic display of incompetence unmatched in modern times.

Off to Leamington on Monday, looking forward to it

For those going to Sixfields I am presuming that you all want the club to come back to Coventry or its close surrounds and are therefore willing to back the move to Sixfields because you honestly view it as temporary. Given that there is a huge amount of work for the club to do even before they...

Twelve years of a season ticket, four years as a Premier Club member. My money and support is there for the club if they play in Coventry. The club left me, not the other way round. Will I follow Leamington, yes I will (along with a few other local clubs), but that's because the club I used to...

Did anyone go to the Leamington game yesterday? Good win for them against Bradford PA, I plan to head over on Bank Holiday Monday when they play Gloucester City. First live football I will have seen since last season!

Completely agree, you can tell he's loving this though, he's a wealthy bloke with a big ego who's got the chance to throw his weight around and get exposure from local and national media. I'm not sure he cares where this all lands, he's just enjoying the ride.

Les Reid broke the 'bombshell' on Friday afternoon, both ACL and Appleton responded with statements immediately, it's Sunday morning and yesterday was Saturday - I think you're being very optimistic to think that something has or is happening. Admire your efforts but personally I don't think...

I note our new sponsor which was going to be "announced in ten days" has still not surfaced.

But it's obviously ACL's fault, a ruthless council and charity backed organisation seeking to bring the club to its knees by asking for money they're contractually entitled to.

I think it's inevitable that if we do begin to climb the table and look like playoff contenders that more will go to Sixfields. However when you look at the form Clarke, Moussa and Daniels are in, regardless of what the club say there will be other League One clubs coming in for them. Even if...

Although on the face of it this is bad news - continuation of the legal wrangling and potentially tying the hands of the Council until they probably win the appeal it does mean further legal costs for SISU and clearly shows their intent to try and get the Ricoh. As AFCCOVENTRY says, if you're...

Completely agree, and IMHO your points add more importance to the Trust coming out with proposed plans for a Phoenix club. Not to begin immediately (obviously) but to serve two purposes: 1) Keep fans together rather than see them drift away from Coventry completely. 2) Show Sisu that there is...

I don't think they'd even contemplate it until they fail a few times to get planning permission for a ground within Coventry / Warwickshire and then look at locations into Leicestershire, Northamptonshire, Oxfordshire. Many people are making a big thing about the £1m bond to the Football League...

Maybe 'conflict of interest' is a bit strong but yet another link between Sisu and the supposedly impartial (from the perspective of Ltd's creditors) Administrator.

It was Paul Mccarthy sitting in for Des Kelly. I was interested to hear that he mentioned he was doing PR for Paul Appleton. Why? Because I seem to remember that he was doing PR for Sisu! In fact here's the proof...

It's pretty clear that there is a fair to good chance that we could suffer relegation both this season and next season. I'm sure the majority of fans would doubt whether Otium will file accounts leading to a further transfer embargo, plus the lack of revenue drastically reducing the wage bill...

I don't think anybody has ever slated Sisu for trying to negotiate the rent downwards - I would say we all acknowledge that the rent was too high and inflexible for the club to ever manage regardless of the owners. People slate them for: 1) Their aggressive and uncompromising stance. 2) The...
