    Tom Fisher Q & A email

    No analysis, because we have all commented on it all previously.......... but ...... Some of it is quite right. For example the rent offered isnt £150K, such things are misleading Dont want to discuss in the media ...... but there you go..... again..... :facepalm: mediation is just...

    Ground

    If four players cost £1.5m we have what another 30 players? If they on average get paid £1500 pw (Thats not an unreasonable guess is it?) that equates to £2.34m. Total players wages bill £3.84m Then add to it manager, coaches, support staff, academy wages, directors, commercial staff and...

    Ground

    Seems pretty rerasonable SBT. But I think that is the point However for instance, I do not see the insistence on the info regarding ACL though. There are published accounts and no requirement for ACL to give more information. It really isnt usual when taking on a lease let alone when just...

    Ground

    just a thought but to break the current lease (which you would need to do or end up paying for 2 grounds) wouldnt CCFC have to go bust first? In which case (a) geography becomes less of a problem for us and FA/FL (b) we would drop down at least 2 divisions as New Co (c) the size of the stadium...

    How Hedge Funds work !!!

    RR did not lose £5m at all ............. Prozone was introduced into SBS&L Group at a value he accepted, that is when he made his gain or loss as far as Prozone goes. The gain when Prozone was sold on was entirely SBS&L Groups in which RR had shares until he left

    Search for a new manager goes up a gear

    Sounds a pretty reasonable approach to me, certainly dont want a knee jerk reaction approach thats for sure. While Carsley has achieved a couple of wins so far then there is no pressure to shorten timescales. Problem they have is every manager will ask about the financial situation and money...

    Adkins and Warnock.....and us?

    Cant imagine that we could afford Warnock to be honest. Also the teams he tends to manage are hard working in your face type teams, with a bit of an edge to their play (edjenguele is not what i mean btw)..... i just do not see that in our squad and I can not see much in the way of funds to...

    We are paying the rent

    no one around to buy us :thinking about:no as it probably stands there isnt because no one would buy CCFC the way it is dressed up in the accounts etc. But then the basic facts are not so different to 2007 really are they and someone bought us Only way that someone becomes interested is if...

    We are paying the rent

    have always had a problem with those sorts of statements. SISU pulled us out of the fire in 2007/08 yes grateful for that ACL pulled the club out of the fire in 2004 when it paid £6m for catering rights to CCFC because it was about to go bust The Charity pulled the club out of the fire...

    We are paying the rent

    All that follows is just an opinion I agree it is not about the rent any more if indeed it ever really was. In some way it has to be about how SISU get their money back. Hedge funds just do not go into distressed companies with a view to turning around and long term ownership...... it just is...

    We are paying the rent

    The rent that has been agreed as would be acceptable we are told by both ACL and TF is £400k. It hasnt been written into contract as yet. The F&B's are not actually part of the lease so do not write down the acceptable rent of £400k at all. If the club made no sales of F&B's in a season then...

    SCG Teleconference with Tim Fisher tonight

    so......... a constant is JS controls SISU and therefore SBS&L Group and therefore CCFC ............. can make the decisions unilaterally, in line with company law a constant is John Mutton leader of council who (the council)own 50% of ACL .......... but he cant make decisions unilaterally...

    SCG Teleconference with Tim Fisher tonight

    just my opinion and expressing no bias but............ I think that TF knew exactly what he was saying and why. There are others involved in this dispute that shoot from the hip and open mouths before thinking ............ TF has never struck me as being one of them. We do not have it word for...

    SCG Teleconference with Tim Fisher tonight

    Look we all know that each side will put their own spin on the way they see things ........... TF is quite correct imo in thinking that as of now the Council would not want to give/sell/accept ownership or part ownership with SISU. However he has also made statements in the past about ACL being...

    SCG Teleconference with Tim Fisher tonight

    kingharvest or anyone ...... says on the official site that the SCG includes "high-ranking members of both Coventry City Football Club and the Ricoh Arena". Who actually makes up the members, I didnt think ACL were represented?
