My biggest gripe, is the 1 million pound bound to relocate back to Coventry. It should have been up front not retrospective. They made a non league club pay up front so they set their own bar. Why were SISU different? Already threatened them with legal action over the golden share is my guess?

I think you are just being pedantic, I am not trying to claim I have spoken to the many hundreds of thousands who have visited HR....and you know it. The worst thing about HR for atmosphere was the West End acoustics. A right din if you were in the middle of it, but fairly tame if you were...

Having lived all over the country talking football with opposing fans, no one torch, has ever put Highfield Road forward as a great ground to visit. The majority thought it totally lacked atmosphere. The "most" refers to countless fans I have spoken to who have visited over the years. So it...

A good scuffler, enjoys court as much as Joy!

Football is full of surprises...let's wait and see.

Highfield road was great because it was the home of Coventry City. But it didn't project the passion of the fans. Most people who came to visit thought it lacked atmosphere and our fans were shit. Having lived all over the country, fans have a different take on our support on the road, it...

So there is an accepted rate for state aid? So state aid isn't always illegal, is that what you are saying?

The Ricoh is a great stadium, Highfield Road is over rated due to rose tinted spectacles.

It depends sometimes you need to prove something before you get to the next stage, sometimes you have to prove several elements. But going back to your previous post...I note the state funds to redevelop Wembley and build the Olympic Stadium wasn't illegal state aid? Nor countless other...

And as we have agreed it is complex. Also as I pointed out a bit of an unexplored area which is why I expect SISU to push it as long as they can. I don't profess to be an expert far from it. But taking bits of the legislation out in isolation doesn't necessarily get you the correct answer...

I would assume he is using the word plonk as a shortened version of plonker. It is an accepted use of the word plonk within the English Language. However plonk can have other meanings as well.

Or fans and local business people, the investment need not be huge for a new club operating at a much lower level.

New stadium? You are right figures don't stack up. Plus you need the right land, at the right price in the right location! Which they haven't got. So it's plan A, keep trying to distress ACL, keep reducing costs of running club and eek what we can from it.

Perhaps the medical is being done by the NHS :-)

Two threads running already!!!

Already a thread Bye Bye Callum

Not surprised are you? Football players leave clubs. It depends on what deal we get and how it is reinvested (if at all) would be the key.
