    Wow, that's an impressive stat!

    Marosi

    Definitely an upgrade, but time to move on regarding burge. I think he did his best when here, was selected by a number of managers, so was (probably) best we had at the time. Came through our academy, so no real cost and a boost to our reputation as another player we have developed. Wish him...

    Not very good odds I'm afraid! Yes, that is the obvious next step, more legal battles/appeals....

    CWR

    If wasps can't pay it, and can't issue more bonds (again OSB and others can comment better on this), I think Sisu 'could' afford it, but given they have proven unlikely to pay previous asking prices, then unlikely. And, as you say, can't see the council wanting to sell to Sisu. But, if they have...

    CWR

    Fair points, of course, but playing devils advocate here - it's a rule that larger clubs who own grounds won't be as concerned about, whereas smaller clubs, including those coming up through the pyramid are more likely to be concerned about as they may rent from the council. And, a council can...

    (I think - expect people with more knowledge to amend) related to the sale of the Ricoh to wasps at a value below market value (in reality, a subsidy from local government, which isn't allowed under EU). Basically, the council (who on behalf of Coventry taxpayers) owned the Ricoh and sold it for...

    Match Thread Tranmere Rovers vs. Coventry City Match Thread - Wednesday 1st Jan

    Not sure why he would consider it at the moment. He seems happy, playing games (has seen lots of mates move on too early and struggle). Would the probable increase in salary make up for it - or a way of encouraging a new pay rise....or perhaps as nick says, paper talk about a player in good...

    January Transfer Window - Who do we want?

    I've got friends who are season ticket holders at Bristol - don't seem to think Walsh would get in squad (guess that's why he is on loan), so whilst they have a recall, not sure they will use it, as he is getting games/development and guess we are contributing towards his wages.

    "IF" we managed to get promoted... How would we fund it

    I'd even let the insects rent the Ricoh if we owned it to earn some money for the sky blues!

    "IF" we managed to get promoted... How would we fund it

    Extra policing we would pay for (I think), local residents...clubs don't always seem to care about - the embarrassment is probably the biggest issue for them! Personally, I'd share my ground to earn an extra million or two (no idea if that figure is accurate), for the potential embarrassment of...

    "IF" we managed to get promoted... How would we fund it

    True, but if we get promoted, they are competing with us regardless. 'helping' us by hosting our home games is nice - but they are getting money that helps their club. If they think it'll make a difference to how they compete in the league, of course they won't accept. I just think...

    "IF" we managed to get promoted... How would we fund it

    If Sisi continue with the reported not investing or withdrawing funds, what happens to the extra money? If robins is allowed to spend on higher wages and fees that would help - but our players may have promotion clauses for wages and payments too. And...Sisu may want some cash back. The ground...
