    The next step for the Ricoh

    How is it that every time SISU make a massive PR balls-up, we get a newly joined member spewing out anti ACL bile?

    Lucas denies rent free offer

    Why do you bother arguing with him - it's like getting into an argument with the looney on the bus. I now have him on ignore as he never posts anything but abuse, bullshit or banality - I just wish everyone else would do the same so I don't have to wade through his regurgitated shite.

    Sisu boss Joy Seppala rejects council offer to play at Ricoh Arena rent-free

    Yes, he seemed to know that Weber Shandwick had four people working on spin for ACL, but not how many sites were under consideration for the new stadium. Funny that.

    Oldham at home 29/12/13 BOYCOTT

    No, most of them prefer to keep quiet about their guilt and shame - pity you don't join them.

    CCFC, The Ricoh And The European Commission

    Ah, that's where it was worth following some of the links. If only one professional sports club is a tenant then it is more likely to be state aid than if there are two such clubs. Is there another sub plot here that sees CCFC being used as the second club, by Northampton council and Cardoza...

    CCFC, The Ricoh And The European Commission

    Somebody sent me this link that explains a recent European Commission ruling on a local authority plan to lease out a municipal stadium to Chemnitzer FC in Germany. http://legalknowledgeportal.com/2013/11/15/leasing-out-of-local-football-stadium-due-for-renovation-can-constitute-state-aid/...

    SCG Meeting Wednesday - Any Questions?

    I don't know why anyone is bothering. There is only one question that really matters to the SCG "Tim, when do we get to sit in the Directors Box?"

    Oldham at home 29/12/13 BOYCOTT

    I have just had an exchange of emails with some friends, one of whom is in the medical profession. He suggested that all those going to Sixfields have a medical condition known as Khuntz-Mimi syndrome.

    The Final Proof

    Who is to say that boycotting isn't working? Why else has Fisher been so quiet, why else did Seppala go through the charade of a meeting with Ms Lucas and why has she suddenly started giving interviews? Neither of us know if this is hurting SISU or not, but a few things seem to have changed and...

    The Final Proof

    Looks like somebody is on a one man mission to hold back the tide of opinion that is now against SISU. I remember a story about someone else trying to hold back the tide - he was a Cnut as well.

    Sisu boss Joy Seppala rejects council offer to play at Ricoh Arena rent-free

    Just noticed this in today's Times, another reason why ACL will miss CCFC a little less if it happens. Barry Hearn replying to criticism of the staging of the UK Snooker Championship "Hearn acknowledged that there had been logistical problems at York Barbican this year, but maintained that...

    "Coventry City owners lead club to Northampton and towards the abyss"

    Midland Media Awards. Other winners that night were The Lincolnshire Echo named as Newspaper Of The Year and a chap from Worcester News got the Sports Journalist Of The Year. So it seems that Les must have beaten off some pretty stiff opposition from columnists at the Lichfield Mercury and the...

    The Ricoh Arena Rent Free for the year - Next Step?

    This was Labovitch's reply on behalf of Sisu: “Joy’s door is open to Ann for further discussions. But we would have to be clear this time that it would be a discussion about stadium ownership.”“In the absence of a clear commitment to discuss ownership, we are pressing ahead with the plans for...

    If they do, he will claim it as an "Exclusive" :D

    "Coventry City owners lead club to Northampton and towards the abyss"

    If this comment on the Guardian article is anything to go by, then the next demo against the council is going to be even more sparsely attended than the last: SkyBlueSpot wrote: "A very enlightening read. Until I read it I thought that my local council and the owners of the Arena were entirely...

    "Coventry City owners lead club to Northampton and towards the abyss"

    An interesting follow up by David Conn that reiterates his claim about the rent free offer: "Thanks for the kind words Houch87. However, on your list of points, where you say ACL never offered a rent-free deal; they have within the last few weeks, an offer made and communicated via the Football...

    Franchise demise

    No one has to come out and say it, just by going and being pleased as a dog with two dicks that you are going says it all.

    Franchise demise

    Exactly - the attitude is if you are too old, too young or just don't have the time to go to Sixfields, then tough luck, but I'm Alright Jack.

    "Coventry City owners lead club to Northampton and towards the abyss"

    An independent journalist provides an in depth and unbiased report on the situation and still there are people bleating on about Les Reid and bashing ACL and the council. Anything to try to absolve SISU and their greed and incompetence of the blame.
