Two quality tackles from young Phillips.

More Utd than City :( Such a sad state of affairs that it has come to this. Feel weird watching this. Looks like watching City playing away at a non-league ground, but knowing it is a so-called "home game" robs the comfort that illusion would bring. Then there's a team in Sky Blue passing...

I think that's a very similar preview piece to the one CCFCWay put up last night. The full piece will probably be online soon enough though.

Thanks for the early snippets Torch.

They'll be in Northampton a while then, I suspect.

All you can do is ask! Thanks for taking time to let us know about the conversation.

It appears the question asked in the FOI concerned "formal" discussions: http://footylaw.co.uk/2013/09/06/foi-responses-expose-coventry-city-football-clubs-new-stadium-plans/ The next question is: What is a formal discussion? At a guess, one could speculate it would be one for which there is a...

Thanks KH. I'm still not clear what the issue was re: Coventry being close to not starting the season. Were Sisu unsure whether they wanted to cover the losses for the season? Was it the terms being demanded by the Football League? etc. Re: question 2. I wasn't expecting them to reveal...

A touch of irony there perhaps?

Thanks KH, an interesting read. My initial response turned into a long, slightly ranty piece (not about you KH; primarily about Sisu's PR) but I doubt anyone wants to wade through that, so I'll just post a couple of queries: Can you say anything about "the club being 15 minutes from ceasing to...

Why are you guys debating the rent? Les Reid wrote: "this is overwhelmingly a dispute over land. It is a dispute over ownership of not just the stadium, but the potential development land around it."

You are right and this is the reason I suspect Coventry could be in Northampton for a while. Les Reid's article seems to suggest Sisu won't back down and the hope for a speedy resolution lies in selling the Ricoh to Sisu and incurring a loss in the process. Would a politician from the left...

The article said: "in the gamble of football, people have to write off losses." If you are right, does the question really change? Doesn't it simply become: Should taxpayers lose money so financiers lose less money?

Reading Les Reid's opinion piece, a condensed interpretation of his argument seems to be: The Sisu-ACL dispute is primarily about land, not income or rent: "this is overwhelmingly a dispute over land. It is a dispute over ownership of not just the stadium, but the potential development...
