Ha ha! As soon as I posted that, I thought I had set someone up for such a reply! In that case, I'm a giant at 5 ft 5".

Is he SteveB on here? Always comes across well enough on here. Interesting seeing Otis' comment knowing him a little bit. I like the fact that I don't know who any of you are and have never met any of you. I've visions of what a lot of you look like and reckon I'd be disappointed if I ever met...

You know the CT isn't the only website on t'internet that reports on all things CCFC related? I'm sure we'll live...

Well that post has confused me...!

It would make the negotiations FOR Wasps stronger as well to be fair. "Oh look, they've got more fans...more money...let's charge them more". We know what those pesky hedge funds are like. Especially when they owe at least £35m to others.

They're exceptions to the rule. The Ricoh is too big for us...would the glory hunters come every week? Doubt it. I do get your point. I'm not saying a 15k ground is ideal as a long term solution...having something modular in the short-medium term than can be increased long term, is in my eyes...

I didn't say it did. My point being that starting again in a smaller stadium wouldn't kill us. Many are missing my point on this. I (my opinion) would rather that we weren't paying rent to a franchised rugby club, which will help them pay their bonds used to purchase a stadium that was built...

Yeah, but you have to get there first, right? They didn't automatically parachute into the top flight.

So we're never going to be owned by anyone else other than SISU? There's not a chance we could be owned by a multi-millionaire? As for them, the main shareholder is the Russian. The Americans are a private equity firm...they got lucky. Speaking of luck, I had the pleasure to listen to Jeff...

So you agree that I didn't say 'I'm happy with League One'? I agree, financial input off course would help. My point still stands, I'd rather us not rent a stadium of a franchised rugby club (when everyone was rightly up in arms about Northampton), when that rent will go to subsidise their bond...

I know it's a hypothetical scenario but yeah, agree with Penguin on this. If it was a temp move whilst a new stadium is built, I could live with that. Spurs are going to Wembley next year for a year, I'm sure others have done it. The Ricoh would be the obvious choice whilst somewhere new was...

Robert Jarni. Wouldn't be allowed to happen now.

The bitching between members. Not the topic of the thread...calm down princess :-)

I agree about the tenant status to a degree but we're more likely to get some sort of joint ownership of BPA than we are the Ricoh. 250 year lease isn't it? And actually, buying two Coventry clubs could be attractive, much along the lines of the Bristol model. With regards to revenue, I'm not...

Sorry, I didn't see where I typed that. That 11k stadium is absolutely killing AFC Bournemouth at the moment, isn't it.......

This thread is a prime example of why this forum has become a bit of a joke recently...

As unlikely as it is, I'd love us to own/part own the BPA with CRFC. The Ricoh has been an unmitigated disaster from us from before day 1, with so many parties culpable. Staying at the Ricoh, we're forever intrinsically linked to a franchised rugby club. I'd much rather we moved elsewhere...

I'd rather our landlords were someone with a connection to Coventry, rather than some parasite, franchised operation who have no affinity to their own fan base by moving permanently circa 100 miles. Wasps have absolutely no interest in us whatsoever other than using our presence at the Ricoh to...

You said on a previous thread that Mowbray would be gone tomorrow (whenever the thread was posted) and Evans would be announced on Monday (yesterday). Mowbray went which wasn't exactly hard to predict but Evans didn't come in yesterday.

Mate, you need to cut those strings. I get the infatuation...I used to like SPs tank tops but hey, TMs gone now. TM was god awful the past few months...he had to go.
