    Donkeys and Lions

    That kind of comment generally loses its power and credibility if it is taken lightly or made fun of doesnt it ...... becomes a joke on the person who delivered it old saying water off a ducks back comes to mind If there was an intention to rile it doesnt seem to have worked on this occassion

    Sky Blues Trust Guardian link

    Might have another effect Nick. It might mean less emotive statements from the Trust that deal with verifiable facts that challenge what is said. If that challenges all sides so be it I think it should. But it seems to me the only side giving interviews are Otium & Sisu, and that means they will...

    What the Trust actually said about the JR can be found here http://www.coventrytelegraph.net/news/coventry-news/statement-sky-blue-trust-following-6355424 and what they said about the Golden share and CVA can be found here...

    Shareholder's meeting.

    surely the value of the assets transferred is the value of the debt that it settled? Even if you discount the debt between Otium and CCFC H (which you shouldnt it is still a valid debt between to seperate legal entities) then Otium owes ARVO many millions and that has been spent on? The...

    new ground ??

    so they have architects designing it, lawyers working on it, fans choosing the drapes etc .................... but where the hell is it going to be................... because it is hard to do all that work if there is no site acquired. If it is going to happen just get on with it..... cut the...

    Some Feedback from Les on SBT Leagal Action

    Some Feedback from Les on SBT Leagal Action

    was thinking when was the last time ACL, the Council or Charity actually gave an interview and were questioned rather than issued a statement? Was guessing it was around early August. Anyone know?

    Sky Blues Trust Guardian link

    either it is a heavy handed way of giving "advice" or it is a threat (which ever way you view it, that came from high powered expensive London lawyers acting for the club & owners)............. either way it doesnt come over as a shining example of fans relations does it.:facepalm:

    Sky Blues Trust Guardian link

    Threat is not necessarily a persons actions but how the person receiving the information perceives it . Clearly the basis of the letter is do as we say or there could be consequences relating to other information that quite rightly can not be made public by the Trust. Is it reasonable for a...

    Sky Blues Trust Guardian link

    In which case you could argue that a phone call from a director/official at the club saying we are taking action against the Guardian it would be sensible to take it down would have sufficed? was the Trust the only website to publish the link on 02/12/13? I assume they got similar letters? **...

    Wider cost to business & the City of Coventry

    So essentially we are saying the measure of success is based on foot fall which is what brings in the sponsorship, the hotel rooms, the restaurants, the shopping. Whilst undoubtedly there is a loss because CCFC are not at the Ricoh call it £20m if you like (i tend to disagree with that figure...

    Council Owe The Club Money?

    Included in the final administrators report 27/09/13 there was the following detail as part of what Otium bought from CCFC Ltd "The debts and benefits of all guarantees, indemnities and security rights in respect of them, including any rates rebate £1,000,000" So looks like the administrator...

    Council Owe The Club Money?

    at present CCFC Ltd is not dissolved it is in the process of liquidation. Part of that process is to gather in the assets or debts the company is owed. I would agree if the company is struck off then the money couldnt be repaid and the claim would be lost. Is that why it takes so long to strike...

    The minutes from the Supporters Consultative Group meeting on December 4th

    The minutes throw up so many questions confused if stadium and academy are to be in same place why do they need to bid on a second site if their first site is acquired and good enough ? "would you sue ACL for damages?" and goes on about the rate refund - doesnt answer the question surely...

    Council Owe The Club Money?

    Got to be clear who is due the rate refund is it CCFC or CCFC Ltd ? I would have thought that CCFC Ltd as owner of the lease & Licence at the Ricoh Can the rights to a rate refund be bought and claimed by a third party? - I thought it was a tax and tax can only be paid to the taxpayer but I...
