I'm not saying that they are anything like competent, but any attempt, even slightly, to absolve Ranson of any responsibilty, makes my blood boil. However we could possibly discount the profit made on Bigi anyway, as he wouldn't have even been here if Ranson, hoffman's and Elliotts plan to...

And of course not signed by Ranson.

Weren't sold whilst he was here, which is what your argument is about him being so great. Are we supposed to celbrate selling players now then in order to praise Ranson? Thought this thread was generally dedicated to the opposite?

We've sold Dann and Fox for a "profit", though a total of around 3 million for them(as was in the accounts), am gross underselling. Virtually everybody else we let go for nothing, either through letting them run down their contracts, or because they weren't good enough to actually demand a fee...

So you admit you were wrong then?

With such great crowds and exalted league positions then losing millions upon millions, year on year must surely make him even more incompetent? Though of course when he left we were 4th from bottom and and not above Derby and Middlesborough, and finished the seaon 6th from bottom(still above...

I did sign our captain on loan for a couple of months, but despite his name, he was absolutely shit at baking. Kitchen just a mess of flour,eggs and sunken soufle's. Had to send him back.

With an awkward council that owns it,

One of the major problems with any "new" club would be it wouldn't be new at all, Mr fucking Coventry would be involved somewhere I'm sure.

What about the people who have been running the Arena for the last years? Just incompetent in not exploting the "potential" of the area around it?

With all this "potential" you'd have thought that somebody would have already been looking to exploit it.

Wish that some of those had been sold rather left to leave for nothing or virtually nothing due to the incompetence of Ranson. The Henderson and Carroll stories are just bullshit anyway.

I"ll come in this when he's been sold, or when he hasn't. Nothing like Kneejerk reactions to really get to the facts if the matter, the Leon Lobjoit going to MKDons definitely as well as Baker's imminent signing for Forest spring to mind just recently.

Leon Trotsky?

You can just fuck off with that sort of attitude!

It was "the rent row was getting increasingly bitter" part of the article that made me think that they were having some discussions with Sisu over the rent. I may have been jumping to conclusions, maybe it was with the casino??

Here http://www.coventrytelegraph.net/news/red-button-ricoh-arena-chairman-5431948 You may remember this from a couple of weeks ago? "Light touch discussions" would hardly need to involve the Chairman of the Arena to sound out getting in other clubs, and seeing if sponsors would wear it would...

That they are, so why sue somebody else to try and get them back then? Still doesn't mean that there isn't more than one type of shark in the ocean.

Do you not remember him playing for us???

To the OP. Fucking hell.
