No Di No. We're not running a holiday camp.

A good manager is proven by making the best use of the tools available, all this "right tools for the job" and "hands tied behind their back" crap takes me back to the Thorn days.

What I meant actually, my mistake!

Wouldn't be at all surprised if the Airport, Rigby been losing serious amounts of money there, only got it for the Gateway which doesn't appear to be happening now. Planning permission could be a problem though, though sure the sensitive souls in Bubbenhall and Stoneleigh wouldn't be so...

Idi? Been gone a few years now.

Went to a dreadful 0-0 draw at the Manor Ground around 1989'ish in Division One. Think it was the only Div One game on that day due to World Cup qualifiers or something, the only 2 teams in the top division not to have any International call-ups at all from what i remember. Good day out though...

Obviously nobody else wanted him then.

Who do you think you are kidding Mr Regis?

So people like Joe Elliott and Ray Ranson intended to fuck the club up? Would rather have people involved who didn't intentionally want to do that myself.

Sisu were more than willing to take on a long freehold, despite constant shouts of "unencumbered" from many. Think most agree that a 250 year lease effectively the freehold anyway, though the Wasps bond and most newspaper coverage of it seemed to intimate that the bond holders would have the...

Would imagine so, not looked that closely at the actual prospectus to be honest, just a quick look at it set off enough alarm bells!

I'm assuming that CCC and Higgs got paid their £5.5million between them from Wasps at the time of the sale and not now out of the money raised by the Bond issue?

They bid more for half of it, the council's half wasn't for sale was it? Too scared that Sisu would just use ownership of the Ricoh to raise money against it and give themselves a load of money. Luckily that never happened when Wasps bought it.

They did.

Log in fail?

Never knocked her work for women and appreciated here stand against the King signing. Mind you she was called a "publicity seeking whore" etc by a lot of fans then.

That is entirely where it went wrong. The first priority should have been getting the Ricoh. Named some decent players there, but only Dann really Premiership quality, forgetting the dross also aquired on unsustainable contracts, and the perserverence with a useless manager. If Sisu had...

Yeah it's all a bit of a paradox really. Couldn't actually afford to buy ACL until they'd actually bought ACL.

What they did when they "bought" the club, buying debt is their game. Wasps and ACL be ideal on that front.

Well they get their news from The Coventry Telegraph.
