Lol. I capped up May if that counts?

We'd want to see some actually evidence of fraud before reporting such things. Especially if the person in question wasn't able to defend themselves. However, we'd certainly pick up such stories once investigations are complete or if charges were brought. But it'd be really poor form to run...

Nick, just for you - I've added it into the article. It will cache through shortly. I trust that means we can be friends again?

You think we should suppress news? What's ok to report? Just so I know.

It doesn't seem like we're going to agree on much today.

I would have expected to see some sort of smoking gun by now if it had - what with all the disclosures through the court proceedings. I'd also liked to have been kept in the loop if I was meant to be part of a conspiracy.

Nick, there's hundreds of pages of documents that have been released today. I have to summarise the key information. The date of the letter doesn't seem to me to be the key thing here, or even in the top ten. Luckily, if you feel everything hasn't been covered that you would have liked, there...

How many people read past the headline? How many people get to the end? How many people click the other links? I can't read it / operate their device for them, all I can do is supply the information. At some point readers do have to take responsibility for informing themselves. It's two...

I'd rather just present the facts and people can make their own minds up.

How did you know the complaint was from May?

I don't think it's really whipped up a frenzy, and I think it's been played with the straightest of straight bats. If people are pre-disposed to lambasting the owners, I'm not sure any presenting style is going to take the edge off. The same goes with those prone to criticising the council's...

The timing is not great - I've acknowledged that. But we are not responsible for the complaint being pursued, or the timing. We also can't suppress the news, and (even if we could) we never would.

The report into the complaint has become public just as the club has gone top. The observation I have made is that this process seems self-defeating, especially in the current context. But I appreciate Sisu are only responsible for the complaint, not the timing. I hope that helps to clarify.

"They" as in the club they operate, not Sisu. I sense, you probably knew that though ;)

The report into the complaint was published today. That's something that has happened today. We didn't know the full details of the complaint until today. That's why we reported it today.

The letter only became public today when it was published online along with all the other documents ahead of the Ethics Committee meeting on Monday, November 30.

There's also a complaint filed with the Local Government Ombudsman. http://www.coventrytelegraph.net/news/coventry-news/exclusive-coventry-city-fc-owners-9251200 I would imagine Sisu would have to demonstrate they've been through all the available procedures before that complaints process is...

Couldn't agree more. But this report and accompanying documents are now in the public domain. If we don't report it, it would get out anyway. There's also a public interest argument. Sisu are the ones pursuing this complaint. They may have a case, they may not. What is for certain is that it as...

Tea spat on screen. Thanks!

Hearing will be held in public on Monday. Come and join me. I've re-arranged my holiday specially.
