Over the years both the Charity and the Council have helped CCFC out of the many and various self inflicted financial messes. There is a will to help the club, there is the will to keep the club at the Ricoh (and yes that represents less than 17% of ACL turnover right now). However I doubt there...

Listened to an interview with him on Radio 5 live about 12 30 yesterday. Talking of his feelings, emotions and sadness at the death of his baby. Very moving. Spoke of how Football helped him through it and how his son is always with him. Some things are vastly more important than the game or...

if we accept we are going down at what point do we start building for next season NLHWC? and is AT the man to do it ? Without new investors or owners the finances are not going to be a great deal better is he the man to inspire the team in division 1?. Given that clingan and Juke will be gone by...

You could try any of them but as pointed out above by kingharvest they are only as good as the service they get. We dont provide good service to any of our strikers, and that is not just under AT. Think it would be a tough ask to expect the academy lads to make the difference on that basis. I do...

The only bright spot in this season so far has been the emergence of the youngsters. Think they are all a credit to the academy and more importantly themselves. They wont have a great game every week but you cannot fault their effort and enthusiasm - there are a few senior players that could...

ok sbd i will qualify that ..... cannot run a successful team in the Championship on an amateur basis :)

Confirms what many thought really - fitness levels at the club are not what they should be. Fitness shouldnt be down to AT, he has plenty to do other than that. It is crucial to success and is a specialised area, it is not about doing a few laps of the pitch. Lack of fitness coach may also...

AT is doing the same things he has always done, he sticks to the diamond hell or high water- he doesnt seem to have flexibility in strategy that he either believes in or can make work. He might be getting more stick than he deserves now but end of last season he probably got more praise than he...

The 30m has been put into the SBS&L as a loan by the investors in 5 investment funds that are managed by SISU. Originally it was much lower at around 9m when they bought the club but has gradually increased over the years to a reported 30m + now. Basically the club has more payments out than in...

Not saying they have done anything to foster any trust Tankie, just think sometimes folk are so angry at them that they miss the possibility that some action might actually be exactly what it seems to be. Not making excuses for them they made the situation for themselves just keeping an eye on...

Anything is possible but I doubt it would happen. If you take at face value that SISU have said i think that they have not talked to anyone lately then to get it done in 9 working days or 16 days total from now is pushing it. There is a lot of hard bargaining to be done on this one so i think...

Yes we are owned by Sconset - however SISU do not own sconset they manage it for their investors. The move has probably been made to tidy up the shareholdings and to spread the costs of running the funds better for the investors. Sconset is not a company it is an investment fund. The only way...

guy on cwr this morning said it was most likely done by end of 2013 early 2014 ajsccfc

it wont change much for CCFC no but it will further enhance the Ricoh as a venue and it will help regenerate North Coventry. The station was never solely or even largely about the ability of CCFC to benefit from it.

"I know this great little portugese player ....... Christiano something ..... I reckon I could get him to come play for us you know"

We dont I agree but if it is as outlined personally I wouldnt be staying around long and the best way to do it is for AT to get himself replaced - SISU would have to pay him up then. But do you really get the impression that AT would stand up to KD etc - if you ask me the guy has had the fight...

But it is no good getting the likes of Cody Mcdonald is it ..... to have hope of being higher up the table we would need to spend 3 to 5 million to bring players in who would have annual salary of say £600K each. So that package could mean a cost in the first year of £6m and still guarantees...

Without looking at their finances I cant tell you how they do it ........... sooner or later though if it is borrowed money it catches up with you.

who the chairman is aside ............. I was always taught that in football you make your own luck, and you do that by working hard then putting the opposition under so much pressure they make mistakes. Basically luck in football is making less punished mistakes than the opposition. It isnt...

so simple isnt it and guaranteed too :facepalm: wouldnt disagree that some structured investment in the team is necessary but dont assume that by doing so the Premiership is there for the taking - ask Cardiff if spending money guarantees success. it only gives you the possibility...... whereas...
