I'm sure a new club could pull in at least 1618 people.

Before moving to Sixfields the lowest ever Saturday attendance was 4744. Getting just half that would now be considered a good crowd.

Best example is the Les Reid arse kissers on Twitter. Anyone who dares to criticise sisu are branded as "rabid anti sisu" by Les and his supporters. They mean it as an insult, however I take it as a compliment. We should all be rabid anti sisu after what they've done.

To those hostile to this idea, can I just ask, what do they physically define as the club?

I don't listen to the radio, but that's purely for the reason that Stuart Linnell gets on my tits. Otherwise I'd still be tuning in.

Theres quite a few of us on here that haven't seen many games this season so it would be wrong of us to post about something we haven't really seen wouldn't it? As for sisu hating, don't you hate them?

If (and I do emphasise the IF in this comment) PKWH is right with his calculations and ACL are expected to have turnover of £12m this year, then that does somewhat throw into doubt the idea that the club and stadium are worth more together.

So you wouldn't like the idea because of what a total stranger said on a internet forum 6 years ago? Good to know you've based your decision on sound reasoning and logical thought.

Getting back on topic, which was lost by the second post, I think an AFC Coventry would get around 1000-1500. Bearing in mind the best supported teams at that level currently get about 120, AFC Coventry should fly up those leagues. Especially as it would be run well.

Why is he so hostile to the Higgs Charity all of a sudden?

The same excuse we use for selling every player and being in financial difficulty before the council were "bleeding us dry".

At least its better than those factually incorrect "We are Coventry" adverts.

Its clear that if they don't want to come back then the FL wont, or, cant force them to.

Good point. If you look up Robbie Keanes debut against Derby from that season the away end looks very empty.

So their looking a 22k maximum ground. With segregation that would instantly become a 21200 ground at best. Last reasonable season in the premiership (99/00) saw half of league games, and two cup games exceed that figure: Man u 22022 Leeds 21528 Newcastle 23031 Watford 21697 Leicester...

The whole crux of the matter though is what the Ricoh is worth now isn't necessarily what it will be worth in the future. The council is under no obligation to sell. Therefore why would it take a loss by excepting a £5m bid? The council has an obligation to get the greatest return possible, and...

The CCFC option was to buy half of ACL, not the Freehold.

That is such a gamble though. The reason it worked with Tesco is because the council bought derelict land, which they could then sell on with planning permission. To make money on this, Sisu will have to buy land, then hope and prey they get planning permission before selling it on. From what...

Do you consider what is best for the team as the most important thing for us to concern ourselves with? Personally speaking, with all that's going on right now, I couldn't really give a toss about the team.

Well apart from analysing 10 years of attendance data there is no way either of us can actually prove our point. I'm sure both of us have better things to do than that so I suggest we agree to disagree!
