    FAQ 3 - The End?

    and as a contrast to Eastwood .......

    I read this on CovMad about our new starlet Bigirigamana........ Eastwood could learn from him http://www.coventrycity-mad.co.uk/news/tmnw/bigirimanas_long_road_to_success_699146/index.shtml Sounds like a decent lad with real desire and commitment. Wish him lots of success

    If SISU bought the stadium...

    When CCFC was sold to SISU didn't we have 30 million pounds of debt?

    Actually the last accounts 2010 showed SBS&L owed £24m to funds managed by SISU. The 2008 accounts showed £11m (year of accounts that they took over). During 2009 SISU increased the loans to SBS&L by £12.3m and a further £700k in 2010 to cover the cashflow implications of the losses since...
