    Sky Blues set to play home games at St. Andrews

    The circumstances may be different but all I'm saying is don't all moan when we end up doing a ground share while a new ground is supposedly built which could take years or never be built if SISU are able to hang in there. All because everyone went along with playing anywhere no questions asked...

    Sky Blues set to play home games at St. Andrews

    What about like when Brighton moved 70 miles to Gillingham as a short term solution. It lasted a long time before they came back. I realise rules have changed over time but we could still end up playing for years outside Coventry. Be careful as once this starts you don't know where it may...

    Sky Blues set to play home games at St. Andrews

    It's about whether you are supporting the club and its best interests and what it stands for or are just supporting a team at a football match trying to win a game. Moving the club outside the City even for a short period is not acceptable, we are beyond it being just about a game of...

    Sky Blues set to play home games at St. Andrews

    If ever supporters had a chance to put across their feelings on the idea of moving outside the City then this is it. We aren't getting promoted so who gives a shit if we lose. By going to the game you are saying its okay. Its not.

    Sky Blues set to play home games at St. Andrews

    Not bothered about refund but I'm with you on the rest. I won't go to any home game outside Coventry.

    CET: Joe Elliot confirms talks and that Hoffman Would also join the board.

    Because if it doesn't happen, Haskell gets free national publicity for his company and we can all say Joe and the Hoff are trying. If it happens then great but we've heard it all before haven't we.

    Joe Elliott to be the front man

    This Joe Elliott front man title is putting me off as I keep thinking about him in tight leather trousers prancing about like Freddie Mercury.

    5 points off play offs

    I think it would obviously be good for Pompey if they get out of the relegation zone (before pts deduction) as then the deduction will be this season and they will be relegated. If they don't get out of the relegation zone (before deduction) the 10 pts will be taken from next season. What ever...

    If the worst comes to comes worst

    If people want to watch non league football with the word Coventry in it they can watch the Sphinx now. If CCFC go bang and end up in the Evostick then I certainly wont be watching and after about 27 years of having a ST it would be hard, but I've pretty much had enough of this shit as it is...

    So are you saying the people that currently run the Ricoh are clueless? Like I said the Ricoh with ALL currently available revenue streams makes a £1m profit. I'm not saying it couldn't be run better but it's not going to give you multi millions in profit. The football side runs at a loss and...

    Potentially 4 interested parties

    Well that all sounds just dandy but currently CCFC run at a loss and ACL with all those revenue streams only make £1m profit so even you combine both things there is currently no money in it. Is a bit of area regeneration really going to make a huge difference? Okay if a buyer just wants to...

    i know its too late now

    Well I don't think the punishment is death by stoning. Think it's just an embargo. Essentially you can overspend and build a team to win the league by a mile and then suffer the earth shattering punishment of not being allowed to make it even better.

    Sky Blue Trust: We know nothing about an impending takeover

    tbh they could have just left the bit about the takeover off the end of the statement.

    The Football League Golden Share

    The problem is with FL you can't get away with anything because of a technicality. Unfortunately this isn't an episode of Kavannagh QC and the FL can and will change the rules and penalties as they see fit to close any loop holes that may have been used.

    Does everyone agree?

    Yes but what size development are we talking about? It's not a housing estate, isn't it the size of a car park?

    There are lots of private companies who are owed all sorts of money going back over much longer time periods who continue to trade with their debtors so I don't entirely agree but I do see your point.

    Does everyone agree?

    So how do you develop land for free? I'd heard of the Midas touch but you must be one rich guy.

    Does everyone agree?

    I don't think anyone is expecting a new owner to get his trowel out but in terms of money to get the area developed how much as we talking? Are you suggesting a new owner for the club will gain control of all the income steams in return for this development? If not how much to get all the...

    Preston Haskell IV to buy Alan Higgs charity.

    Yes businessmen want an investment that gives a return but at what price? If the ground is say £50m to gain control over plus how ever many millions on development of the area. There will never be a return in this guys lifetime.
