Joy Mark and Tim have all said "we've moved on" and they have made that very clear. If they aren't 100% about this and are hoping to go back to the Ricoh then they should stop saying they won't, as it sends out the wrong signals. ACL aren't going to wait forever for us to come back, they run a...

Joy however has made it clear in the LR interview that if it's 'Ownership' we're talking about, she wants the Freehold. She sadly doesn't give a decent or even detailed explanation of why this is necessary though...

I don't think anyone on here is suggesting that the rent wasn't extremely high and almost certainly unsustainable given the gates we were getting. In fact SISU don't appear to have had a problem with the rent until we were relegated to league one which is a little odd. The question is whether...

Well it isn't 100% clear to me that it's about the rent as that bit of the article talks about 100% freehold ownership. http://www.coventrytelegraph.net/news/coventry-news/coventry-city-fc-owner-joy-6096912 She does then go on to talk about rent, but the first part is about the freehold and her...

She contradicts herself in the interview, first she says she doesn't negotiate and then she says she can negotiate a deal. Which is it she either negotiates or she doesn't?

+1 to that. Even though I'm trying to learn how a balance sheet works, they still might as well be in Japanese.

So from that it is perfectly plausible to believe she went in and said here's what I want and my price or the club doesn't come back to the Ricoh. It is also possible that council were expecting some sort of rental period first to try and build back up a level of trust between the two parties...

Yeah but she also said http://www.coventrytelegraph.net/news/coventry-news/coventry-city-fc-owner-joy-6096912

I always thought you were just a super passionate CCFC supporter who put that above everything and everyone else. It's not my opinion but you're entitled to yours.

GLR in London are covering bloody Brentford tonight, although to be fair they are playing Peterborough who are second in the table. I'm supposed to be babysitting for a friend tonight as well and I was hoping to listen to that.

That's a step too far in copying A.N.Other firm surely ;)

I'm unsure as to what exactly ACL sent to NTFC and without seeing the entire thing it's a bit difficult to comment - and I'm not a lawyer and this needs a real live one to comment.

Perfectly possible for an organisation to sue for defamation, a past example is the McLibel trial www.mcspotlight.org/case/trial/story.html‎ & en.wikipedia.org/wiki/McLibel_case

Mine did it on rebuilding a garden wall, hardly a roof on the ricoh.

Even if you ignore the legal action, as OSB58 says they won't sit around forever waiting on the off chance that CCFC are going to return and will do something else. That will make our return harder and it'll be worse if they do decide they don't need the pitch space as a pitch.

My builders would probably be delighted to give them a quote and then take ages before they actually start to do anything after it's accepted.

It's possible, but what worries me more is that they've decided to "Move On" and are working on doing something else with the pitch area, be it another team (as unlikely as that seems) or something. That would then prevent us (or make it a hell of a lot harder) for us to go back to the Ricoh if...

Does anyone actually know how many league football clubs in this country make a genuine profit? I can't imagine it can be that many but I'm happy to be corrected.

I'm not falling for that one again. :o:D

Actually if you read up on the charity it wasn't just set up to help deprived children but stated within the objects is Source:http://www.charitycommission.gov.uk/Accounts/Ends67/0000509367_ac_20110405_e_c.pdf They therefore I am assuming they decided that taking on the club's stake in the...
