But the club will still be losing millions a year even with zero rent and 100% income streams. Do you not agree that Sisu's position on the rent would be much stronger if they sorted out the clubs other problems? If their only loss each year was due to the stadium would that not back up their...

In that case the club is screwed is it not? What is the point in even going anymore if it just on a downward spiral into the abyiss?

Why does it have to be Sisu who put the club into admin? What do you think will happen when HMRC can't be paid?

Which is exactly the reason why the Council doesn't trust them.

As we have not paid any rent in nearly 12 months, and the rent is the cause of all our problems, this years accounts must be the healthiest in 20 years.

How can a long established top filght club lose all its fixed assets, be relegated two divisons, and lose £85m in under 20 years? When you combine the losses generated by Sisu and the last shower it really is mind boggling. How can we be so unlucky to get two lots of owners as bad as this?

Why didn't they go through with it then? Your post also states that ACL were more than happy to sell, that blows away a few theories on here.

Ray Ranson & Sisu didn't seem to think it was an issue in their early years.

Are you suggesting then that the Ricoh wasn't a problem then and it has only become an issue due to Sisu's mismanagement of the club?

What has been left or right wing got to do with this? I'm firm centre right but want Sisu out as much as anyone else. Nothing to do with politics.

By an amazing coincidence though they did manage to hold off the Inter bid up until the point most people had renewed their season tickets.

Coventry City chairman Ray Ranson says that the club are not likely to exercise their option to buy half of the Ricoh Arena any time soon. Ranson believes that stadium ownership is not his number one priority. "At some point in the future it will make financial sense to do it," Ranson told BBC...

I think it was classed as someones bonus.

Was it the case in the past? I seem to remember HMRC getting annoyed about the football creditors rule and taking someone to court.
