The article by David Conn in Guardian 02/12/13 In the middle of English football's greatest ever boom, a proud club is being publicly strangled, and those who run the game are accused of being no more use than bystanders. Coventry City, formed in 1883 by workers at Singers' cycle factory, are...

Just to be clear The valuation was for Yorkshire Bank to value its security. The security held was a charge over the assets (inc lease of the site) ACL owned. That was valued at 6.4m It would not have been a valuation of the freehold that is owned by CCC and not charged as i understand it...

Just as a for instance many properties that are let are valued as a multiple of the annual rents it receives ...... multiples can be 10 or 12 times. We know at the time CCFC were paying 1.3m but how much were the casino and hotel paying? say it was 500k (i would guess it was more) . that would...

To some degree yes...... but things have moved on from a year ago. A valuer would value the worth of the tenants leases that ACL holds (its rent roll). Some were good covenants eg the casino or hotel of good value...others like CCFC were very poor and probably valued at nil. Dont forget the 6.4m...

Think the report they are referring to is the valuation CBRE did for Yorkshire bank to value the security for its mortgage. Such valuations are often discounted to something much less than open market value it may be the case here too. The question is did the council take an acceptable risk in...

Think it is more about avoiding the legal costs Nick ....... AL's statement doesnt come over as scared she says she welcomes the examination in court. The only people winning out of this are the lawyers. Makes sense for all sides to settle this without further legal costs surely?

This is a bit legalese but it might help understand some of the proceedures going on http://www.justice.gov.uk/courts/procedure-rules/civil/rules/part54 or this is easier to read http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Judicial_review_in_English_law

It will be what they call commercial income fp ........ sponsorship, shop sales, tv monies, league monies etc (it is not the sale or profits on players though)

Was surprised that they won on all the grounds put forward, expected they might on maybe one ............. but lets be clear what they have won.......... thats the right to have the evidence examined in court supported and put forward by legal counsel. That does not mean they will win, that the...

You are making the assumption that they wont challenge it I think ....... the figure was only put out yesterday perhaps they have to do their own research

so the SBT or KCIC or who ever should just accept the claims of cbtr without asking for the evidence or assumptions to support it??? ............ that would be wrong wouldnt it ?

would be interested to see how they came up with that figure of £20m and the assumptions made. Most fans come from Coventry and have not disappeared. They still have the same disposable income just spend it differently and most likely in Coventry. What is lost in terms of football to...

oh go on give it a go ...... have a feeling you are a born natural and it will come easy to you..... where as the rest of us have to work on it

Used to be at Henley College but then switched to Alan Higgs for a while but it really depends where the team can get a pitch as fixtures often booked late..... so at the moment there isnt a home ground as such, but the lads wont play home games outside of Coventry

no pal no reason to.................. i just help them with their training, they find it useful to have an FA qualified coach on board who has some experience running football teams...... Guess that means i actively help a Coventry team be successful (amongst a lot of other things i have...

yes they do. They alsdo pay for most of the kit travel and pitch costs themselves. The SB Trust sponsored one of the kits

the original judgement was given on the basis of the written evidence supplied to the court. Thursday sees the oral examination of the same evidence and is happening because SISU etc have the right to request an oral hearing if the first judgement goes against them. It is not a case to examine...
