Have you ever heard of the McLibel case? It cost McDonalds £10m and a lot of embarrassment. For another UK company to go down that road would be idiotic - oh yes, I see what you mean.

I love this bit: "Nobody at Coventry/SISU seems to worry about the long-term issues arising from the fact that a Sky Bet League One club, facing a battle to attract young supporters, has, out of bloody-mindedness, ended up playing its home matches in front of crowds of less than 2,000 and a...

Another damning indictment of SISU as part of an article that highlights the failing of the game's administrators. Oliver Kay Chief Football Correspondent December 14 2013 Choose football. Choose a club. Choose a vanity purchase. Choose a leveraged buyout. Choose dragging a club into...

There is a chap in a town in Sussex whose job it is to go through the town and collect 'the dung from the steed of the reigning monarch'. I suspect he is busier these days than Ms Garlick will ever be.

From the SCG minutes: "Tim responded to an article which appeared on the CoventryCity-Mad website and stated for the record that ‘there will be no suing of fans’ as alluded to in that article." Factually correct, I suppose, in that the threat of litigation was sufficient.

Why, whenever Fisher talks about the new stadium and what it won't have, does this accursed place spring to mind - and it would be within their budget: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H3UBPKeH2sY

Wasn't there a rate refund shown in the assets of CCFC Ltd when Appleton produced his report? If so, it is probably now in his back pocket.

You could be right, it's quite easy for "I don't agree with you, old chap" to be misspelt as "Bore off, you moron".

"physcic Sally" James, I think you should be recommending him a book on basic English to start with.

The way I feel right now, I wouldn't go to a SISU owned stadium if it was at the end of my garden.

I am not sure where you get your ideas about investors from. The City abounds with all sorts of risky investments and most investors are interested only in the downside and the return, not how the game is played. If you don't show a return, then you're dead meat. There are no brownie points for...

But more importantly, the people with money think you are a crowd of useless twats who can't be relied on to provide a return.

Far from turning attention away from your post, I actually quoted it and could quote it again if you wish, but I am sure everyone has had a good laugh at it by now. Also, I did reply and if that reply does not tell you how abjectly ridiculous I thought your post was, then I cannot help you any...

Well you started it, just how stupid do you think most of us on here are?

I see Comical Ali is making a comeback.

You must have heard the saying "form is temporary, class is permanent". The team are in good form, but SISU will never have class.

NOPM is about more than the loss of income to the club or SISU. The sparse crowds at Sixfields are a cause for national comment and even sparser crowds would draw even more comment. For a company that shuns publicity ("we provide a discrete investment service"), these comments must be like a...

Oh well, just to be pedantic and to out a plagiarist, this was posted 3 months ago:

Labovitch was CEO of one of Tony Blair's ventures and, you would have thought, with that on his CV would be in demand by a host of City firms. So, why did he have to resign from Blair's company, why is no City firm interested in him and why has he pitched up as a director of a firm controlled...

No, I just find it difficult to believe that any rational person could spew out so much bile in support of a private investment fund unless they either have a vested interest, lack a moral compass or are bored at school.
