Or, preferably, another football club.

I really don't know how to answer this without it reading as an insult.

Talking about taxpayers money, someone should ask her if the Fraud Squad investigation into her expense claims has been completed yet.

"But mysteriously, once the purchase of the land and the sale to Tesco had been completed, Coventry City Council informed the football club that they were unable to share with them the profit from the sale of the land due to ‘state aid’ implications." The "profit" from the sale of the land was...

I do hope this is a sign that you will in future be chastising Grendel for using similar insults - in the interests of balance of course.

As others have said, the walk through the streets to Highfield Road, the smoky pubs and the Kop - these are now, sadly, gone. Going with my father, my brother and my mate that never came back from the Falklands - these are now, even more sadly, gone. Going to the Ricoh could never replace those...

People keep saying this, but there is absolutely no evidence they would go. Ms Seppala has said that her only reason for owning the club is to make money. If SISU were to own the ground and all its income streams, what is to stop them using that income to repay all debt (£60m) over the next 10...

Absolutely nothing, but that doesn't stop SISU demanding it as part of the ransom.

It perhaps wasn't new, but it was a reaffirmation of what the council is there for. Ms Lucas stressed that the arena was built to regenerate the area and to provide jobs - that is what councils do. If SISU want CCFC to play at the Ricoh, then talk to ACL - that is what stadium management...

I don't think it will be long now. There is a warm up act doing a very good impersonation of Mark Labovitch, so I guess the Ricoh announcement is next.

Fisher has been spotted visiting a specialist at this Chinese hospital.

Probably, but do you really think they give a shit about the name?

The Football League have already stated that they cannot force the club to go back to the Ricoh. If the club use the "evidence" of the design for the stadium, the involvement of CBRE and the consultation forums to show their sincerity in wishing to build a new ground near Coventry but there is...

I agree with this valiant and have said before that I am concerned about that empty ground at Nene Park. The current owner of Nene Park has been in no rush to sell up to now, probably because Max Griggs had the right to a large percentage of any profits made on any resale of the ground. Those...

Consider the following scenario: 1. SISU build a new 12k stadium outside Coventry at a cost of £30m. New stadium financed by mortgage held by separate holdings company. 2. Holdings company charge the football club rent to cover repayment of loan for stadium - £2.5m per annum. 3. Club remain in...

Another article about CCFC in the Guardian today. This one deals with happier times despite being about that, rather embarrassing, trip to Gander Green Lane. http://www.theguardian.com/football/blog/2014/jan/03/vault-sutton-united-coventry-city-fa-cup-1989-giantkilling

"That's how it feels to be a Coventry supporter".

At PNE, Boxing Day 1964 - Howard Kendall punched the ball into net for the winner. We thrashed them next day at Highfield Road.
