Why not? You seem happy to have the council and Higgs trust to put all the investment into the Ricoh only for sisu to get it for free.

£10m Ricoh! Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha Your funny. Also please could you tell me when exactly the club were locked out? Some sort of newspaper article will do, only I think your lying about it.

Yes, and the offer was rejected. http://www.coventrycity-mad.co.uk/news/tmnw/city_statement_on_acl_offer_772025/index.shtml

Ok, lets assume fans sold out the shithole every week. These are just rough figures, but the ratio of loss is whats important. 7250 fans paying an average of £13 a ticket equates to income of £2.16m. Discount the £150k rent, leaves the club with £2.01m. 11000 fans paying an average of £15 a...

That would have made financial sense though wouldn't it? Persuade me that moving to Northampton was better for the club than staying at the Ricoh and paying the rent.

Regardless of whether £1.3m is "right", the club is loosing far more by not paying the rent, which in turn will affect FFP, meaning your beloved team will be broken up and sold. The club simply could have stayed whilst working out a solution with ACL.

Yes, they didn't have to take us to Northampton. We have a perfectly good ground in Coventry.

Can I just ask, do you think its wrong for CCFC to be playing in Northampton? Because the likes of you, RFC, and trueskyblue, all seem to like us playing there. Because of that I have to question your loyalty to your city.

Yes

Not entirely. Still have Crewe & Peterborough as localish games. Also Notts County give a generous allocation, no reason why that cant be a mini MK Dons. Then theres Sheffield United, Rotherham, Bristol City, all pretty easy to get too.

Nothing worse than a middle aged chav.

What a stupid thing to say.

Although their record is similar, I always felt Dowie was much better at building the team up for important games. I don't think we would have seen the 5-0 FA cup defeat to WBA or the 4-1 loss at Charlton on the final day if Dowie had stayed.

When I saw the headline I was expecting to see something like this:

I bet the players aren't looking forward to it. Imagine going from the quality stadium MK, with 7k loud city fans, to that shithole with 1500 city fans. It must be so depressing for them. Anyway, shouldn't a megafan like you be looking forward to your trip to Hartlepool first?

No one, he resigned.

I support Coventry mate. If you want to betray your hometown then that's up to you. The majority don't, and told sisu at the start of the season they wouldn't. When you get advanced warning like that your 100% responsible.

About as rosey as it was pre 2005. We were awesome before we moved to the acl owned arena. Remember the classic Peter Reid era? Or who could forget the ever glorious days of Gary Mcallister. Now that we've gotten away from the shackles of the Ricoh we might be able to return to those glory days.

Sisu took over a mid table championship team with an average home gate of 19k Since then we have become a mid table league 1 club with an average gate of 2k. Care to defend that? And thanks for reminding everyone about orange ken. Always good to remember the sort of dicks these people...
