    Doug King Takeover

    Robins interview today sounds very positive. Just hope he isn't having the wool pulled over his eyes.

    Was just saying exactly this to someone five mins ago.

    U18/U21 Development Thread

    What happened with the lad Isaac Moore who Villa were sniffing after? Did he sign a new deal.

    Doug King Takeover

    When you described what you had heard it actually sounded like it made sense and that Sisu finally had a credible exit plan. I had hoped it was a credible new owner. Last night's announcement just sounds like complete nonsense to me. The statements I think are really amateurish. Ashley, the...

    Match Thread ⚽️ Coventry City vs Queens Park Rangers Match Thread - Saturday 12th Nov

    I thought both games against them last year were as high a quality game as I've watched in the Championship. Expecting the same tomorrow. Willock, Chair and Johansen are all excellent players. The lad Taylor Richards they signed from Brighton is also a very decent player.

    What I was told today

    Ashley also likes a little gamble. I honestly think a £1.5m transfer gamble in January (loan striker, RWB and a CB) would see us in with a fighting chance of the play offs.

    Previously he had said he doesn't talk about business on twitter. His tweet said something like 'considering breaking protocol in the next 24/48 hours #PUSB'

    Don't understand the benefits of this 'pre-pack' deal. ACL still go into administration. Why not the test the market? As a bond holder or creditor I would insist on this.

    @SBchimp be a proud man tonight. Fantastic debut from Burroughs.

    This is my fear. But even then what is then the exit plan for Sisu.

    Wasps going into admin & the impact on CCFC

    Could prove to be wrong on this but the role of the Council in this shouldn't be understated. I'm sure as freeholder they have to rubber stamp any deal. If Ashley acquires ACL and Sisu retain the football club this could be a toxic mix. Surely no one would willingly sign this off as the best...

    Is there an argument that our prospects for acquiring the ground increase if ACL go into liquidation? I barely understand the difference between the two.

    If SISU don’t purchase the stadium…

    It's not like a standard administration I wouldn't think ie. The administrator just gets the best return foe creditors. I'd imagine the freehold to the site has many covenants and restrictions on it which I'd imagine would include potentially even some Sport England restriction. Not sure if I've...

    If SISU don’t purchase the stadium…

    One of many things I'm not sure of in all this is the Council’s involvement. Say an investor comes in and offers to buy ACL but isn't interested in the football side presumably as freeholder they can essentially reject any bid even if that bid was worth more money. Could this possibly go in our...

    Transfer Embargo?

    To be fair, something had to give from a cashflow perspective. In isolation this seems a sensible approach from the club in my opinion.

    Said on another thread, just feels like we are going to end up getting shafted. Starting to fear there will be some way they can come back in, clear the debt and keep hold of the Arena.

    Match Thread ⚽️ Coventry City vs Blackpool Match Thread - Saturday 29th Oct

    Defence looks really poor. Haven't seen Panzo play well for us since the opening game. Didn't win anything today. Doesn't look strong enough or fast enough, and look very nervous in possession.

    Agree. Everyone knows he isn't good enough.
