    Police on stand By

    Difference here is that no one was expecting them to play at the Ricoh because they had moved to Sixfields apparently and anothers police force would be responsible. Do you not think considering that the police have the final say it is not wise to give them an early heads up of the...

    as to how old I am I will let you work that out .................. my lad is 15 ............. not that any of that has any bearing on anything I say on this site or is really any of your business

    Should we be ashamed to go to Northampton?

    surely if you were ashamed of the decision then that implies you think yourself it is the wrong thing to do ? However if having considered the pros & cons you still decide to go the only person you have to justify that decision to is yourself. If you are comfortable with your reasoning then...

    If the rumours are true....

    well 2000 at sixfields at £207 a season or 10000 at the Ricoh at £300 a season you tell me ...... margin on a £1m of F&B's isnt going to a breaker and they have to share income streams at Sixfields ....... yet they still intend playing in Northampton.............as it stands there is no great...

    If the rumours are true....

    Right now the message has to be a consistent "Keep Coventry in Coventry" that is the most important thing now. SISU will not go until they are good and ready no matter what the fans campaigns are. As for the rumours then I think I will stick to believing it when i see it ....... Not at all sure...

    Police on stand By

    surely they would have to give the police two or three weeks notice just in case ? Couldnt leave it to the last minute ie a couple days before. Does it mean there is a CCFC match there ? no it just means the police are prepared if there was, be no point ACL & SISU talking about it if the police...

    academy returning to the higgs

    PWKH is still a director of ACL, he would have been briefed on the discussions. ACL agreed to a news blackout regarding the discussions and they have to date made no comment. In which case you would expect a director of ACL not to comment one way or another either. Think people are desperate for...

    Discussions - just an opinion

    I understand it is not being pro sisu KG7 you could be right but it just doesnt make much sense to me to take the club to L2 to claim the stadium is not worth anything to the club. They have already stated that now. A stated aim of ACL is to be independent of the football industry so I would...

    Just to add if the club goes to Sixfields it is by no means certain that taking CCFC in to L2 increases the chances of CCFC getting a good deal on the purchase of the Ricoh. Just makes it less likely that CCFC will be bought in my opinion. For that to work that assumes that ACL sits there and...

    Am certain PWKH would know as he would be the one dealing with the agreement for the academy to use the facilities

    Whilst in my opinion SISU have tried to distress ACL to get it on the cheap I am not sure how distressing CCFC further to do it actually changes the value much. If you accept the notion that the whole complex is nothing without the football team then yes perhaps it fits the theory but thats an...

    Hedge funds being in control for 5 years and planning 10 to 15 years ahead is not normal hedge fund operation. The strategy is not unusual but being so far in a hole before doing it is Yes they make money from debt and by clever accounting whereby those losses are used more than once. But say...

    If I were in their shoes NW taking a business decision I would have cut my losses and gone a long time ago...... certainly wouldnt be pouring more money in to the pit. That would have been the business decision. Even now that would be a sensible business decision. They have no real affinity to...

    Discussions - just an opinion

    Nothing more than my own guess but I really do not think that the discussions at the end of last week will achieve a break through or bring our team back to the Ricoh. The feel i get from the reports & "leaks" is that the focus from the SISU point of view is on driving through the CVA...
