    ITV release potential sites

    This confused the hell out of me for a minute because the site of the former Hillman/Peugeot factory at Ryton is also called prologis park

    What If???

    If the league awards the golden share to holdings then ACL would have no say in the matter would they? Thats a genuine question if I have misunderstood the situation then please tell me.

    Show us the document Tim

    You would assume that a man in his position would not be stupid enough to base his entire argument upon a document that doesn't really exist........... then again......:p

    What If???

    We would not be able to start the season without the golden share issue being resolved. So, if the league decided not to issue holdings with the share then they could not field a team which in theory would pave the way for Haskell taking over, assuming the league thought him a fit and proper...

    tim speaks.....bullshit as usual

    For all made Tim's bullshit, I do believe him on one point. I do believe that the council/ACL were intent on removing SISU from the club. Whether they were right to do that or not is another question but it does make you wonder if we wouldn't be better off with SISU buying out the debt and...

    Where do you see the club in...

    I am genuinely concerned that they would sooner see the end of the club than walk away from it. I only see it ending one of two ways, either Appleton in conjunction with the league awards the golden share to new owners and we start again but still at the Ricoh or SISU win out, ticket sales...

    What will Appleton's findings reveal ?

    I suspect he will conclude that we don't have a pot to piss in and that previous directors sold the family silver to pay for beer and hookers. Just my guess :D

    Players being released; Possible targets

    We are the best known name in League One - for all the wrong reasons. There is so much negative press around the club now that no decent player is going to touch us with a barge pole for a very long time. Even if Haskell does come in, buys the stadium and resolves everything we are still gonna...

    'Highfield Two'

    Because long term, even medium term that would not help the club. FPP was going to ruin us and they had to have control of at least 50% of all the revenue streams from the stadium to stand a chance of complying. The way they have gone about it is totally wrong and what we are left with is a...

    'Highfield Two'

    It is perhaps worth pointing out that £400k was only going to be the rent whilst we were in league one and we have only the media reports to go on that said it was £400k, you don't know what other costs and add ons there may have been on top of that. Also it's not just the costs per year that...

    'Highfield Two'

    It's always on the news about how knackered the high street is, so with that in mind how about they just flatten all the shops in the city centre and just build a stadium there? :D While they are at it they could move the speedway there as well, keep the NIMBYs in Brandon happy, sorted!

    'Highfield Two'

    Yes that may be the one saving grace. Of course though as the main creditor they could still block the sale to another party by failing to agree to the CVA which would mean another massive points deduction and possibly a very long drawn out sales process.

    Brandon Speedway

    It was an odd situation, known to everyone and referred to almost exclusively as the Brandon Bee's but the league officially referred to them as Coventry and published fixtures and league tables in that name.

    'Highfield Two'

    I think it would probably take some sort of legal challenge to remove him and bring someone else in. i don't know why ACL didn't do that the second SISU appointed him to administer CCFC Ltd. It must have been obvious to everyone that they only did that so they could get a sympathetic person in...

    'Highfield Two'

    That would all be fine if Appleton could be relied upon to be impartial and just award preferred status to the best bid. I have absolutely no confidence that he will do that, do you?

    Baginton is under Warwick council rather than Cov and there could potentially be space there..............

    Brandon Speedway

    There was Speedway racing at Lythalls Lane but it was way back when, from 1928-1936. The stadium then converted to greyhound racing in 1937 and remained as such until 1963 when it closed. Some time after that it was demolished and built on. I think Speedway started at Brandon in 1930 but i'd...
