Would be interested in why people believe this to be true. I cannot think of a single reason why freehold ownership would be necessary I also believe that the club will never hold the freehold under SISU. I recall Tim Fisher saying that it would probably be owned by another SISU subsidiary...

I saw a naval chap walking around East Coventry acquiring mass. It was a Higg's Bosun.

One could make an argument that all goals ever scored are due to defensive mistakes.

What other kinds of posts can take threads off topic? Any ideas anyone?

I disagree. Why do you think that zero attendance would be any different to 1,000? From a publicity standpoint certainly it would be a big news item. Emotionally too for the fans. However I don't believe that either of these things would influence SISU at all. Their only driver is money...

Harsh but fair.

millions. m is a thousand, so mm is 1000x1000 = 1,000,000

Golly, thank you. I tried to follow what you said really closely and I thought really hard. ;) You are quite clearly quoting a floor price here - if you were writing an option to buy at that level then I'd want to be long. Forget the club and forget the rent that the club would be prepared to...

20-30 year gilts trading at 3.5%, so I reckon 7% is a bit high. 6% yield assumption gives a valuation of 33mm - again on projected revenue of 2mm. 2.5mm revenue and 6% yield gives you 42mm valuation.

Well, yes... Of course there are nuances and there will be a lot of negotiation within a range, but that doesn't invalidate grego-gee's helpful post which at least gives people on here and understanding of the rationale for valuing commercial property and hence the ballpark for a price.

Beat me to it - had just started playing with some yield and revenue assumptions in Excel. I also assumed 7% yield, although that may be a little high. I assumed total income of 2mm giving a valuation of 28.5mm. To answer magic82ball, it is the income potential that should be used. The fact...

I predict that we all know some people who earn an awful lot more than that. Your GP for example, your dentist, the bloke you know from school who got straight As at A level... For sure, there are probably fewer than half of all people who earn more than the mean average - but that's only...

So you think that we should play Baker on the left? Why?

I'm sorry - no insult intended.

The point of NOPM is being lost in this suggestion - muddled thinking. SISU will return the club to Coventry under only one condition - that they can make an awful lot of money by doing so. And their current strategy to get this jackpot is to obtain the Ricoh and surrounding land at a bargain...

Not sure if you are being serious or not. Clearly stating a fact is not an issue, but conjecture on Cov players could turn out to be expensive.

DJ Campbell has been arrested today for match fixing. In the papers yesterday, San Sodje was boasting that he has a network of players happy to take £70k for fixing. I am absolutely not accusing any Coventry player of involvement - There is no evidence of it taking place. However there were a...

I'd choose ability and attitude over experience every time. Not saying maguire hasn't got these - but you don't even know who the player is yet, let alone seen him play.
