The pitch is no excuse, both teams play on it for gods sake. Hopefully he is looking at a pacy right sided midfielder/winger than can beat a man alla Ryan Haynes and whip a decent ball in. With a new pitch at least we can exploit the width instead of playing side to side all the time. But then...

Has Paul been reincarnated?

Great news for the opposition as some have already said. Whether it promotes passing football is another as the dross so far this season can hardly be described as football, unless your having a conversation with Stuart Linell on the phone in that is. The pitch is no excuse for the fair on...

The only way a new stadium can feasibly be built is next to a large conurbation, this is the only way you will get third parties involved in joining the venture. If your out in the country you don't attract the customers plus the infrastructure is not good enough. The maximum amount of effort...

I think it will be a lot sooner than four years. The business model used has not worked, we will be lucky to be in the professional leagues by then. Its gone too quiet over the last three weeks, something is going on behind the scenes, Waggot has been the only one to speak publicly in that time...

Fair point, but as I have said in other threads I don't think Sisu have ever had the money to afford to. The other reason is that if AL didn't give them the same offer the backlash is something the council could do without.

I agree with most of the post Paxman, the council could have offered the same deal to the owners of the club and others for that matter. My only point would be that the details of the original negotiations with Sisu have never been made public because of commercial confidentiality. We don't know...

Give it a rest Brighton, you will accuse the Telegraph of getting free tea bags next because Tesco run an advert for them.

I was quoting Richard Cockerill from Tigers. Born in Coventry, coaches Tigers and understands our demographic, he can not see where their support will come from. He went on to say that he would think that they are hoping to attract fans from the surrounding conurbations that occasionally watch...

As I said in my post that is all any one can have against them. Coventry is more working class than middle or upper middle class. The demographics for the type of supporters Wasps want to attract is vastly different to Citys, I doubt their will be only a very small percentage of cross over...

You cant call them anything Brighton. Look at it from another angle, Real Madrid play Barcelona in an exhibition game at the Ricoh. Your offered a ticket for 15 quid and decide its good value. How can anyone call you anything for going to watch the game and supporting one team or another just...

Its a shame that Wasps bought the Ricoh, but they have and that's that. Being jealous about it just eats you up so its time to move on folks, If you want to vent your anger at any one look no further than our owners. They had their chance and blew it, if they had done the deal instead of trying...

Insight is great. Having the nouse and cash to act on it is a different thing. The club is pot less, just take a look at the shop they have cut budgets to the quick every where and are reaping the rewards. What chance of people renewing season tickets next year when the off field antics of the...

I don't think that with our current owners we can attract any one of a high calibre. If Elvis was replaced we would probably end up with the usual mercenaries looking for one last pay day. Added to this most would want a change of playing staff so Sisu would not want to support this. Elvis has...

Perhaps Puma had run out of kit to rebrand? Something is afoot though why would you no be holding stock this time of year?

Its a sad fact MCCFC that everything that is spoken about the club and its owners is speculation and assertion. This is down to the secretive and often divisive way they carry out their business, if they were open and honest then fans would not speculate on future possibilities that are coloured...

The longer they hang around the more the threat of liquidation gets bigger for me, they can use it to offset profits in their other funds. We have and all ways will be the collateral damage Italia, the thing for me though is how much is real debt and how much is debt that has been saddled on us...

Question for me Astute is have they ever had the money? Every one on here could have bought the club for a pound, accounts can always be manipulated to show a strong trading position or the opposite for that matter. I don't think SISU have ever had physical cash and the wear withal to be able to...

The Council would have to follow Government guidelines for the building of any new stadia. It is dependant on infrastructure, regeneration and lots of other factors, SPITE can not come into it. Sisu would have to prove all these things in any application, though we all know this is Timothys...

But they haven't. And why? Its because they were trying to get everything on the cheap from a council and a charity by distressing a business instead of paying the going rate. Sisu would not have been able to purchase anything if the charity and council had not stepped up to the plate in the...
