    just a thought but if you let contracts come to an end and then ask those players to sign another in a different company, or , only sign new contracts for youth, loans freebies etc in that different company whilst say leaving the players you dont want or are too expensive in the old company has...

    Telegraph probe into Sky Blues administration raised in Parliament by Coventry MP Bob

    Think the problem is that at 31/05/11 the players register may well have been as stated above however in the year From 01/07/12 to 30/06/13 there were 41 registrations and I would guess by March 2013 the players were registered in CCFC H Ltd ....... with very little value attached The value £5m...

    Best guess on finances

    Just some thoughts....... In my mind the club moving back and SISU acquiring the Ricoh are two seperate things if the club moved back to the Ricoh then crowds bigger, more ticket sales, depending on the rent deal more match day incomes, more sponsorship, probably more TV income, more success...

    Best guess on finances

    Can only tell you what they told me MMM ...... but as we all know the FL make it up as they go along ...... SCMP relates to L1 and L2. I was asking them specifically about the SCMP not the Championship FFP rules I subsequently got this reply too The League has put together an FAQ document...

    Best guess on finances

    The reply I had from the Football League on 25/07/13 said this The Relevant Turnover figure used in the SCMP calculation includes cash invested into the club in the form of equity or donation but does not include money injected into the club through loans. However for Otium to invest...

    Coventry City boss admits 'errors' after leak of confidential players' documents

    just for example £20m over 20 years at 4% is 1.45m per year but what would they have needed to borrow......... CCC required a loan of 21m plus ERDF grant of £10m plus other CCC had access to funds CCFC could not have accessed 4% is probably low considering the football club credit history...

    ACL caving in?

    I think you will find the PWKH quote of "moving on" was him requoting something that TF has often said in interviews. It is said a little tongue in cheek. A sort of we have been told but do you believe it ..................... think the same was said about the academy but there are now talks...

    Coventry City boss admits 'errors' after leak of confidential players' documents

    If sorting the structure out to help administration had been the driving factor it could have been done without all of this grief...... in fact we would never have known most probably. Also if siorting it out was so essential they should have done years ago but didnt. In deed the whole mis...

    Coventry City boss admits 'errors' after leak of confidential players' documents

    Just a few thoughts really There have been comments about how the split of "The Coventry City Football Club Ltd" was done in 1995. That things like the golden share were put in the wrong company. Just to be clear in order for the Hive down to happen there had to be written approval of the...

    More from APOM

    I would assume the first decision is PA's as to whether to reopen, then if no resolution the Court. Got to be honest I dont see the court going against PA so long as he remained right side of the law. For the administration to be re run then ACL would foot the bill i think if they appealed and...

    Coventry City boss admits 'errors' after leak of confidential players' documents

    all pre Fisher cover period from 2006 to 2010. But whether Fisher was there or not at the time really is not relevant. After months of investigation there shouldnt be these contradictions.

    Coventry City boss admits 'errors' after leak of confidential players' documents

    When will the CCFC badge be taken off the Ricoh

    It isnt ACL's to take down. So any cost would have to be bourne by CCFC so it would be under SISU instructions if it comes down It would as said above be a PR disaster for ACL to take it down so I wouldnt think they will. So it will be the club doing that .................... assuming there...
