    Is Murphy the answer to Centre Half issue ?

    Oggy as the goalkeeping coach should maybe have a word in his ear.

    Ainsworth Explains: Land Around The Ricoh

    For the record, I don't comment on players performances at football games I haven't seen as it would be unfair. This is because I can't judge for myself whether they were stunningly good or should have been substituted as soon as possible. The BBC live text/5Live are excellent in letting you...

    Ainsworth Explains: Land Around The Ricoh

    I was talking about the fact that plans have never been submitted as far as I know for our new stadium, and you said By which I assumed you were referring to the new stadium, it appears you weren't and do accept my apologies for the misunderstanding.

    Ainsworth Explains: Land Around The Ricoh

    So not after the rent boycott had started then, when a new ground was suggested with any seriousness?

    Ainsworth Explains: Land Around The Ricoh

    But we don't own any of ACL despite having had the chance to do so. :facepalm: We could have had two seats on the board of ACL and therefore influence, the ability to see the accounts etc. just by buying the Higgs share.

    Ainsworth Explains: Land Around The Ricoh

    So quite different to SISU in that respect then? Plans have never been submitted (as far as I know) for the new stadium and nothing has ever materialised on that score (pun not intended). Were they just looking to get planning permission sorted for the eventual developer perhaps?

    Ainsworth Explains: Land Around The Ricoh

    I may have completely the wrong end of the stick on this and am happy to be corrected but...... I thought the reason for them CCC/ACL wanting the development of the surrounding land by the owners of our club was so that the profits from there + ACL could be used to support the club. As the...

    Ainsworth Explains: Land Around The Ricoh

    Sadly you can't see the dressing rooms or anything like that but I've never seen anything on the lower ground floor apart from the casino.

    Ainsworth Explains: Land Around The Ricoh

    Whilst looking at Google maps and the land surrounding the Ricoh I noticed you can walk around inside using the streetview stuff. I've seen vast bits of the Ricoh I never knew existed (until recently)...

    Fa cup audio

    Yes sort of, the Sky Blue Magic cassettes are available to listen to here http://www.cwn.org.uk/skyblues/FA-Cup-87/sky-blue-magic.htm and are an excellent memory of the day, especially if you were there. I always get teary eyed when the final whistle goes and again when Killer lifts the cup...

    SISU will never build a new Stadium

    I work in a shop and if I lie to a customer then my manager will at best seriously reprimand me and at worst sack me. That's before you get to the Trades Description Act, the Sale Of Goods Act etc. which could also apply. What worries me and has done for some time is the fact that we are...

    SISU will never build a new Stadium

    So hang on you're saying that ACL weren't lying when they made the £400k final offer but that we're possibly being lied to by TF and JS? Because we need as a club need to make our intentions clear about whether we want to go back or not before ACL move on and we can't. People thought that...

    SISU will never build a new Stadium

    So what other offers were made to the club then? Because the fact that we've seen nothing about the new stadium isn't looking very positive for the credibility of Joy or (don't laugh) Tim.

    SISU will never build a new Stadium

    I worry that every day that passes and we appear to be no closer to being back in Coventry at the Ricoh means we are less likely to go back there. The lack of any news at all about the new stadium just adds to my concerns that we could be exiled at Sixfields for many many more years to come.

    It's to do with sperm and I'm not sure what relevance it has here.

    club shop on line:

    You're assuming that ACL had the finances to be able to offer a cheaper deal than the legally agreed rent amount or survive without the club after they opened the doors to the place. We've only got the word of SISU/TF that there was any deal, the council have said nothing about it and that...

    Depends, what other offers have been made to Otium since that one?
