I wasn't around in the early 80s but I was under the impression that football at that time wasn't as well supported as it is now in general as well.

I agree but its still disheartening and angers me to hear Fisher say effectively they have no wish to own 50% of the Ricoh.

Ok just asking as you said you don't want any other clubs logos or insignia on it. If there was an opportunity to stay at the Ricoh alongside Wasps which suited the club would you be for or against it?

Really, so if CCFC and CRFC joined up to build a new stadium in which we would ground share you would be against it? Putting aside my feelings for Wasps, if we could stay at the Ricoh on a suitable deal (not rent) which financially allowed us to have a realistic chance of one day returning to...

Obviously it isn't an easy job but he should be doing better, there was little the club to stop some of those players leaving. Clarke forced his move through, Mcgoldrick was never ours and had an offer from a better team, Christie, Murphy, Moussa all ran there contracts down. Wilson was...

Obviously the figures he's suggested are bollocks but he does have a general point, we should be trying to buy into the Ricoh and benefit from it. It's unknown if Wasps would be willing to do such a deal (unlikely imo) but Fisher pretty much ruled it completely out anyway in the meeting by...

I guess but Fisher explicitly states they have met with the local council with regards to the 3 sites mentioned.

That may be, but when you are analysing Pressleys performance as manager in isolation of everything else its irrelevant, he isn't good enough. Take this hypothetical situation, Pressley is still our manager and we have a new owner, he has bought the Ricoh, he's invested in the first team...

I had sympathy with Thorn, whilst he wasn't good enough we had a relegation squad that year and barely even attempted to replace the players we lost but Pressley is simply under performing. Now go and create a list of every player Pressley has signed and see how many goals they have scored...

Yes that would be a good idea, not sure on your numbers 10 mill for 20% but we should be looking to buy into the Ricoh. Unfortunately it seems SISU have no desire to buy into the Ricoh and it remains unknown whether Wasps would be open to selling.

I guess Madine is one of the hopefuls, that means 3 more hopefuls on top of that. We will probably get a few loans on transfer deadline day.

Cheers, missed that bit initially

Was the question asked to Rugby council again or are you just going off their last response in November?

You are wrong of course, but saying that it wouldn't be a bad idea to play them all at Ryton if it saved money.

I think a lot of supporters made hasty decisions to renew when we returned to the Ricoh, I reckon we could be sub 6k easily next season for some games even in league 1 if Pressley is still in charge and SISU are still here.

Why, we're not Wasps fans? if you want to discuss that you will be better off on the Wasps forum.

Just that Pressley was clueless with Adams and he is still clueless now.

If the people of Coventry want to become a Rugby city and support Rugby over football then so be it, but then they have no right to complain how shit the football team are. If in 20 years time, long after SISU have left CCFC are only getting 1k in the conference whilst Wasps continue to flourish...

If I had 50 million, I'd give it all to ACL as rent for using the Ricoh.

Doubt it, that's how some clubs survive, one 2 million sale will run Crewe Alexandra for a year or two.
