    ACL isn't letting this drop

    You're wasting your breath. No matter how matter times they are told they don't get it. All the council ever did was secure a bank loan to make up a funding shortfall for the building of a facility where the vast majority of funding was already in place. Not only that, GR has gone on record...

    ACL isn't letting this drop

    If you want to take personal offence to an insult aimed at a notional group of people who share a particular viewpoint then fine. I say grow a pair.

    ACL isn't letting this drop

    No I didn't, I said 'fuckwits' (note: plural) in response to a post by somebody else (note: not you) who had labelled somebody else an arsehole. So no personal insults were aimed at you at all before your little rant. Funny how the same people who have freely used the words 'areshole' and...

    ACL isn't letting this drop

    ACL didn't build anything, they are the management company that was set up to run it once it was built. The council didn't build it either. Their contribution (from their own coffers) to the construction costs amounted to about £2million, for a stadium that cost £130million to construct...

    ACL isn't letting this drop

    And where have I disagreed with that? That is a universally accepted fact. Those urging ACL to continue the legal fight and dressing it up as the 'common sense' position are pretty clueless though. Take that route and it pretty much GUARANTEES that the club leave the city, the very thing...

    ACL isn't letting this drop

    Just more name calling with no attempt to actually answer the points. Yes, because what we really need at this point is more legal action - those lawyers haven't earnt enough out of this have they? That's the common sense viewpoint - more conflict and confusion? An idea, we draw a line under...

    ACL isn't letting this drop

    Surely you mean our precious football club? Who cares about SISU, or ACL for that matter. What is weird is the sense of loyalty people feel toward a completely separate 3rd party corporate entity like ACL. It is very odd. Somebody on here once said they sided with ACL in the dispute because...

    Not all over yet... our job now is to...

    But that move to Milton Keynes was always going to be permament and it was essentially a new club that was formed - so a franchise. Unless you think the town of Walsall can sustain two league sides? The moment it becomes apparent that it is permanent (which the league would not allow anyway)...

    Best interests of creditors ???

    But it wouldn't work like that surely? You can't heap extra penalties on the out-going tenant simply because it is recognised that the landlord would struggle to get another tenant in at the same rate, or indeed another tenant in at all (genuine question because my knowledge on these matters is...

    Best interests of creditors ???

    It doesn't matter. If a creditor is up-to-date with payments and but wishes to pull out of a contract because it can no longer meet payments and ceases to use the services provided by the creditor no court will ever insist that it continues to make payments, at worst a small penalty will be...

    Coventry and Nuneaton Utd

    The point he is making is clear. Being upset that your club is dying does not excuse killing another club does it? What sort of twisted logic is that? Start a new club from scratch, fine. It would probably be able to start at a reasonably high level anyway. Destroying a local non-league...

    Best interests of creditors ???

    They can ask it, but it will be pointless. Unsecured creditors receiving ALL the money they are owed following the administration of a debtor is almost unheard of. Having received all monies owed, if they tried to pursue SISU for future revenues it would be laughed out. A complete...

    E-mail sent to football league

    The FL decision is a formality, so I feel this is a waste of time, but understand why you would want them you know your feelings. Efforts now should all be focused on keeping the club in Coventry, which means more pressure on SISU and ACL. The FL just want to get the fixtures out for next...

    Away days only for me!!!!!

    Out of interest, why would you not go to away games? Surely that would be the best way for us to demonstrate how much we care and how much potential we have as a club. It would be a great message to send out to prospective buyers would it not, because I doubt turning up to a empty stadium at...

    Who is going to do what next season?

    100K per week is 5.2 million a year. We turnover more than 8 million. The club was moving towards a break even position last season we are told. Certainly if we move to Walsall we'll be back to losing money hand over fist, but at the Ricoh, even with an average of say 9K, we'll be one of the...

    Away days only for me!!!!!

    No, you will not be slated. On the contrary, it is the people who are planning to go to home games that are being criticised it seems. 'Scabs' apparently. I respect your decision and the reasons for it, but I hope others can respect those if they choose to attend home games. Away games will...

    Who is going to do what next season?

    I am kind of with you. Said I would get a ST ticket wherever we played, but will probably only get one if we play at the Ricoh now. Will try to do all the away games if I can.

    Who is going to do what next season?

    18000 break even? Come on now. They said it was 11K break even last season and that is surely to come down as costs are cut further.

    So as predicted back at square one...

    And there was me thinking it was quite a reasonable opening post.
