A little sideline of mine - my campaign to encourage more use of two letter words.....

This is a key issue for me. I'm sure that there have been "wrongs" by both sides throughout this messy saga. That has brought us to our current position where (from all that we can see) a (the?) key obstacle to moving forward is a lack of trust between the parties. So a (rhetorical) question -...

I think that more mud-slinging from one side against the other is the last thing we need at present. I can't see that there are more than two options: 1) The parties get together and agree a deal that brings us back to the Ricoh - whether temporarily, until the new stadium is built, or...

Having said that - I would expect him to have a very good grasp of how the business case for building a new stadium stacks up and would be very interested to hear that!

I'm not normally known for leaping to the defence of SISU/Otium Directors, but in this case I have some sympathy for ML. In my experience, Directors (excluding FDs of course :) ) have only a passing acquaintance with the statutory accounts of their companies. They'll usually have a decent idea...

Excellent post. I believe that that is representative of a significant number. I worry that SISU do not understand that.

I agree. I love the intrigue as much as anyone, but after our "lost year", the only thing that matters is playing back in Coverntry.

I fear that that is true, but hope that it isn't. If we kick off next season in Northampton, it seems likely that we will be there for years. If so, I wonder what state the club will be in when (if?) we return to Coventry.

I think the question is what do you mean by "the club"? If any money is due, I'd have thought it was due to CCFC Ltd, or perhaps CCFC Holdings Ltd. I don't think that either of those are anything to do with SISU any more. If that is correct then I can't see how SISU could sue anyone for...

Interested to read this section: TF was asked about the business rates story which had appeared in the Coventry Telegraph. TF gave the background that back in 2012 they had reviewed all club business contracts, all invoices, and that they had found several issues and anomalies including council...

This is my concern. Even if we accept SISU's position that the only future for the club is with a new stadium, I simply cannot see any logical reason why they don't move heaven and earth to do a short term rental deal with ACL while the new stadium is built. The short term financial impact...

I recall that at the time I last studied company law (back in the early 80's) it was pretty standard for private companies to have clauses in their Articles of Association that limited the rights of shareholders to sell their shares to third parties. If this is what is being referred to, it...

Not sure where you get that opinion from. I live outside "of the Coventry bubble" and every football fan (and I do mean every) that I've discussed this with has been in complete agreement with the approach of the majority of our fans.

I think that "other things being equal", it's better if things are out in the open. However, I don't think that they are equal here. We've got a lot of history, (it seems) a lot of bad blood and too many people taking a pop at those involved with the other parties. In these circumstances, I...

I'd agree with that. It's good that they tried and they should only be given credit for that. Just as those who put effort into the SBT and KCIC should equally be given credit.

The wife had a Range Rover Sport that she loved, but spent more time in the dealers than on the road. On the other hand, I have an XK60 that makes me smile every time I get into it.

Great article - brought a tear to the eye....

Different player in the Cup - trust me ;)

You've got to be kidding - the winner at Old Trafford, 2 in the quarter final and 1 in the semi final. He's bound to score.....

No need to worry - "our name's on the Cup"!
