Got no problem with the vote. Both sides twisted things to suit, it worked (just) for Brexit, however Remain over egged it. Doesn't give me any comfort with either side to be honest. Doesn't work to do voting separation the vote was and was intended for the UK No you cant ignore the 17m but...

Just my opinion/thoughts ......... Let me say from the off I was not in favour of leaving but we have what we have and we now need to make the best of it. The vote was democratic and there is no exam passed to get the right to vote, no need to prove you understand or have even heard the...

This referendum didn't cause the many fractures in this United Kingdom but it sure did bring them in to sharp focus. Lot of work to be done and not just on the Brexit

Actually as my own son, his friends, and cousins have attended SBITC, I have spoken to staff and decision makers at SBITC and as you might expect regularly checked the financials, regularly praised its efforts on this forum, I have some idea of what fine work SBITC do thanks. All I am...

I suppose we could sit here and point fingers at all the other parties for all the nasty things they are doing and the continued damage caused. Emperor Nero comes to mind, or shall we just sit and be victims As the senior football team in Coventry shouldn't CCFC be taking the lead? shouldn't...

What I asked for was for the club to take active leadership nothing more nothing less. Because if they do that there are (a) benefits to grassroots and football is maintained as the number one sporting activity and (b) CCFC needs to "win friends and influence people" and that will maintain its...

Not apportioning blame to CCFC or even SISU be it for nuclear proliferation or the city of Rugby Nick ! It is not a question of who is at fault, it is a question of how the threat is countered. No Coventry will not suddenly become City of Rugby (never suggested it would) but this is a long term...

http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/36606270 signed new contract at Leicester

fair point ....... but then look at the incomes that rugby and football control within Coventry, the partnerships being formed, the building plans, the growing coverage - the threat is there and the football community can not just brush it off

The guy is entitled to express his opinion, I doubt it will make any difference to what is going on though. Do you know what I find is most worrying is how lacking in partnerships CCFC has become. If you go on the rugby website referred to there is a whole range of organisations buying in to...

Good post stu ......... should be compulsory viewing, especially for politicians! reinforced my view on the economy and legal situation

watch the video clip - says it all really http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-manchester-36596875

I think part of the reason no one complained was because the information on the finances was harder to get, less well understood, and not widely reported - it is different now 14 years after he left. The main source was Companies House and you had to pay for the information for example now its...

Just looking at the teams on that list saddens me. Hope we can maintain a decent challenge this season. Top six should be minimum but .................

always happy to learn new stuff so knock yourself out :)

2007 the CCFC turnover was £9.6m ACL was 6.4m at the Ricoh 2015 the CCFC turnover was £4.7m ACL was 19m plus wasps had another 9m at the Ricoh Or look at it in 2014 year for ACL turnover was 12.1m with no rugby and no football - ACL turnover significantly above 2007 levels But why bring that...

Its all about the money, personally I think it has become a pointless worthless cup, but if it gets CCFC extra revenue then that has to be good.

nope Before 2015 year end there had been significant growth and Wasps were not involved. Significant increase above 2007 levels kicked in from the 2012 year end. The one thing the dispute did was to focus minds at ACL on obtaining income from non CCFC sources. The dispute broke the lease but it...

ACL Turnover - ACL is a sub group of Wasps Holdings. It owns IEC Experience jointly with Compass but ACL has 77% of iec which was set up in 2012 to run the events etc (ie ACL was split in to 2 companies) ACL results (year end 31/05) ..... turnover .... profit/(loss) ...... £m...

I am sure SISU are spitting feathers over a lot of stuff, similarly there are the same reactions on other issues at CCC. But if CCFC are to remain in Coventry or even on its borders they will need a workable relationship with CCC. And if CCC want the City's football team they will have to have...
