    I support any attempt to get our plight national coverage or serious attempt to get our team playing back in Coventry (doesn't have to be the Ricoh).

    If you're standing on just one issue then you will be starting at a disadvantage because that one issue may not be relevent to everyone. Why would a Villa/ Leicester/Arsenal/Man City etc. fan or someone who doesn't watch football vote for this candidate when what they're standing for is of no...

    And to think this whole situation

    Richardson had put us in a financial hole that subsequent business managements couldn't dig us out of. He was paid over half a million quid as a salary and bonus the year we were relegated which is a small fortune (and a lot more than the currrent directors are getting in total) each year for...

    Nope not Kevin, unless he was the biggest shareholder in the club at one point.

    Two words............and the second one is Richardson

    Hence why we need the new stadium asap as Sisu appear unwilling to do anything else.

    Question: If we were to return to the Ricoh....

    Yes if I could find someone to split it with so that it could be used for games I couldn't get to.

    Murphy V Westwood CET

    Is it fair to look at the GK in isolation? If you're playing with better defenders than the other bloke had etc. then it's going to affect your stats to some extent. Having said that I was sad to see Westwood go when he did.

    To you and me maybe, to the lawyers and accountants possibly not. ;)

    Think it's part of the joint venture they own not Compass but happy to be corrected.

    Funny What You Forget About, Isn't It?

    Don't know- Oi Simon there's something you could investigate and write a story on.

    Funny What You Forget About, Isn't It?

    Yeah some did it was in the press at the time. Two that I remember were Geoff Mann the architect bloke who had the suit made for the cup final, and David Shortland who is something to do with property I think, certainly seen the Shortland name on some building development.

    Council pays Sky Blues six-figure sum. ACL left to foot the bill

    Those offices are available for rent apparently, you can view them via a link on the ACL website. I'll post it when I get a moment, still on my way into work.

    OTIUM ENTERTAINMENT GROUP LIMITED - new document

    I find his Premier Inn commercials very funny. :D Have seen him do Shakespear "Comedy of Errors"* and he was very good in that. *Interesting title ;)

    Council pays Sky Blues six-figure sum. ACL left to foot the bill

    I hope you can back that serious allegation up with some evidence.

    Council pays Sky Blues six-figure sum. ACL left to foot the bill

    ACL could in probability just use the money Otium owe them to pay back the council- so the money could just go round in a giant circle. :facepalm:

    Council pays Sky Blues six-figure sum. ACL left to foot the bill

    That makes the ACL claim of our being the anchor tenant when we only had the place for 30 days a year, a bit thin.

    Council pays Sky Blues six-figure sum. ACL left to foot the bill

    Yes as I said earlier as our club wasn't renting the bowl pitch etc. full time ACL are quite rightly responsible for it when we weren't. That makes them liable for the rates for the rest of the time - simple really.

    Council pays Sky Blues six-figure sum. ACL left to foot the bill

    I can understand why ACL aren't keen for it to be backdated to 2005, and our club are, most people are the same with taxes. Is there a 'statute of limitations' like income tax on how far back these things can be looked at retroactively? ACL I would guess owe the council for the shortfall because...

    Council pays Sky Blues six-figure sum. ACL left to foot the bill

    Good, now we just need Sisu/OEG/SBS&L to hand over the cash to ACL and there's no risk to our Golden Share. That is unless Sisu manage to do a deal with the league to avoid it.
