The mammoth sum Coventry City owners Sisu would need to walk away without loss - CoventryLive (coventrytelegraph.net) I think this might have been what I was thinking of when I talked about SISU needing a figure much higher than the current debt plus assets. Obviously it's from the CET and...

The debts alone are in the region of £20m aren't they? You then have the possibility of SISU not being interested unless they get plenty on top of that for sums previously invested (whether they actually were or not). Wasn't this one of Fisher's lines around previous interest? That the owners...

The memorial day was my first thought but it was jan 27th so still seems a bit of a delay. Think you're spot on about the irony and i think that is where much of the calls to ban things cones from. If you don't trust people to see that its clearly a joke and not reinforce their prejudoces then...

Yeah, i can totally understand people finding it offensive but the timing of the backlash didn't make much sense to me.

I find him to vary quite alot, sometimes very funny but at other times he just seems to be bullying people. Having said that, i havent watched many of his routines right through. Any idea why yesterday saw all this reaction to a show that was released on Christmas Day??

Just another part of the neverending fistfuck of life. There is apparently a plan for the government to subsidise the bills by up to £200 and for a £150 rebate on council tax but there will be alot of peoplw in alot of bother by next winter if it doesn't dramtically improve by then.

Have you not got one of the smart meters that give you a running total? They're great for causing rows about 'turn that fucking light/tv/bunsen burner off' and watching your money disappear in real-time 🤣

I read about that and then also the fact that Robinho is about to (or may now be) placed on the Interpol most wanted list as he is supposed to be serving jail time in Italy for rape. They linked back to another case in Brazil of a player being able to resume his career after a conviction for...

Ours are more like 16% aren't they? Burnley must be a safer bet but in the main loans from owners seem to be at zero, or very low rates. Not ours....i understand why, just wish it were different

Id have to go looking for some comparisons across the division but i suspect loads of teams need money putting in from the ownership, cant see many being sustainable from that point of view. I find the lack of a clear long-term plan for the future troubling too, how long is a hedge-fund content...

I don't know if it is as high as when they arrived but it is certainly substantial and increasing. The level of interest charged is high, though i'm not sure what you'd realistically compare it to if trying to qork out if we're being exploited or not. I haven't read the article but i'd have...

Complete guesswork on my part clearly but we've got quite a bit piled up in debt to them now which rakes in about £1m in interest per season doesn't it? They'd presumably want the debts paid off and a chunk on top for loss of the income stream, possibly more to cover any investment they've made...

The fact they ejected him right then suggests there were grounds for it. I agree that cctv is unlikely to provide unequivocal proof, they have probably gone with the statements of several witnesses. Ultinately neither of us know, i just doubt he's been booted out if completely innocent, it...

You'd have to be really, he came back knowing full well what they were like so it's not surprising. I get where you are coming from but my worry if Robins were to say "fuck this shit, i'm off" is what the hell do we end up with? SISU aren't going to find a buyer that's willing to pay the money...

What do you mean by 'leave the church'? Resign? Or just speak out against having players sold from under him?

What's your take then, they shouldn't do anything because it might be made up? I'd imagine they'd be looking for cctv and corroborating statements from other witnesses. Weird use of the word 'grassed' as well, like he should have just shut up and accepted it.

Really need a win from this one, sounds like we were unlucky vs qpr (didn't go because of bastard covid) so hopefully that turns vs Stoke.

Why? What negative impact is it having?

4-0 city, revenge for an absolute spanking in the 90s that ive hung on to for no apparent reason. I was convinced our record against them was terrible but actually seemed alright for most of the 2000s/2010s

If he displaces Maatsen that would be a very good sign, ultimately better for CCFC if he's the better option as he'd be under contract beyond the season. Even if he just provides decent competition and motivates Maatsen to perform better that's good, just the former scenario that suits us best.
