    Mark Labovitch's time at CCFC in quotes

    I read on here DTD that ML had apparently said this latest deal was the same one that was agreed in Jan 2013. Not sure if true. But wasn't that a deal that ACL thought was agreed and SISU walked away from? Equally the current deal it seems is basically a pay as you play deal for 2 years with...

    Mark Labovitch's time at CCFC in quotes

    In my opinion Mr Labovitch was a hinderance in all that went on. He was brought in it seems to muddy the waters and to distract attention, which he frequently did. That is possibly seen by SISU/TF/JS as a useful and successful contribution. But in the end did he become a liability even for them...

    Baker gone

    Good Luck to him. Players come and players go that's the way of football. My assessment of him is more positive than negative. The one thing that I don't think you could doubt is that he gave what he had to give every time he played for CCFC and the fans. Did it always work out no. Sometimes...

    Waggott

    Have to largely agree with Grendel ...... seems to me that a simple change in title is being portrayed as a sea change in policy............ there is no change in objective here. Just use of positive PR to hide behind and to deflect attention. SW comes over as a decent enough bloke from the...

    Premier club obsolete.

    I thought that all ticket operations etc were through CCFC Holdings not CCFC Ltd. CCFC H didn't go bust SISU chose to wind it up in the restructuring that went on - transferring its assets etc to Otium .

    Tickets for first Ricoh game.

    wasn't there one season where the ticket price was £18 or something? Am tempted to repeat some old rhetoric about League 1 average etc in relation to ticket prices but hey we are back at the Ricoh which was never L1 average in the first place. Interesting that the ticket for MK Dons was £20...

    how much would you pay for a season ticket

    For this season I would like to think that the Club would make a gesture to all its fans and charge the same as they were at Sixfields. Then do a properly costed price next season. Would existing STH's be prepared to pay an additional amount....... and charging new STH's more just creates...

    most likely on holiday Nick (or perhaps ill?) ............ so that the deputy leader automatically becomes acting Leader in her absence until her return

    ...for 2 years plus a 2 year extension?

    ACL is not a subsidiary of CCC I am sure details of the deal will gradually become apparent. I have some questions and concerns of my own. But to be honest all that can wait ..... right now I just want to enjoy the moment and thought of CCFC being back in Coventry where it belongs

    Sky Blue Trust Secretive Meeting(s) with SISU

    What rules were broken? Again you seek to imply wrong doing by suggesting other important board discussions are not minuted - it hasn't even been proven that any minutes are missing from meetings, including any from a meeting with Seppala. We have already established that not publishing to...

    Sky Blue Trust Secretive Meeting(s) with SISU

    And how do you know minutes were not kept or a report made to the Board? So now it isn't a breach of the rules or the constitution but in your opinion an obligation to report what was said. So it isn't actually breaking rules or being untrustworthy as has been suggested in this thread People...

    Not good News

    Not really unexpected is it TF can try to distance the club from the legal action but it doesn't really stand up to scrutiny really does it. The two entities named on the court documents are ARVO and SBS&L who are the only share holders in Otium trading as CCFC. The only reason they can...

    Think being a fan-owned club in England is easy?

    Keep hearing about the German model being better but I don't actually know much about how it really works other than fans own 51% so some questions 1) are all clubs 51% owned by the fans ? 2) what are the debt/ borrowing restrictions if any? 3) are fans involved in all decisions? 4) are the...

    Did SP sign the wrong players?

    Could be the case certainly fp . The question I have though is how were CCFC going to have a playing budget unless Wilson left? They wouldn't have based the budget on winning the JR and a return to the Ricoh would they, and I don't think there is an appetite for SISU/ARVO to lend more money...

    Did SP sign the wrong players?

    What comes first the players or the system ....... If it is the system then the responsibility is for the manager to bring in the right players for the positions within the budget he has if it is the players then the system has to fit the squad available and to get the most out of that squad...

    SISU Paid Up yet????

    As I understand it. Otium was required to put aside £600k in an account to pay unsecured creditors - this was part of the conditions of gaining the FL share. There is nothing official (other than TF comments and we know that they can be contradictory at best don't we) that says that money was...
