I remember it well. It was a double celebration. The football club made a profit, and Singers had just made the first motor car to go over 15 mph.

No its just been added to the pile of debt. That's much better.

Well diverted again.

I never said force. However a local authority is perfectly entitled to publicly have an opinion of the ownership of a business within its area.

Actually the council is perfectly within its rights to have a preferred ccfc owner.

Osb, based on what you know, what would you say this year's figures look like?

Hence why everyone was so grateful to the council for trying to force them out?

The JR is between sisu and CCC. Nothing to do with ccfc. Presumably your hoping for a CCC win then?

Sensible answer! I don't disagree with any of that.

Otium are Coventry City.

Hmrc and Co op bank were also major creditors. The accounts were a mess apparently so seeing that won't help.

They wouldn't have had a choice. They had no more money. Do you think businesses only ever go into admin because it suits the owners?? The reason it didn't happen is because they sold their share of the Ricoh.

Yes it is the same logic. It was widely reported at the time that unless CCFC could sell Higgs their share the club would have gone into admin. Now as McGuinity and Robinson were "the only show in town" at the time, is it not likely that CCFC would have been liquidated?

Well diverted.

CCFC would have gone out of existence in 2003 if Higgs and CCC didn't go it alone with the Ricoh project. Something that is conveniently forgotten.

I was just asking, should the council help the club? Should they allow Otium to buy ACL if they don't want to sell?

So many on here seem to back a hedge fund more than their city?

So the Council wont help in lowering what they want for it you mean?

They are a private company in the same sense that Royal Mail was a private company pre 2013.
