A Coventry City fan, who is new to wealth, announces he wants to buy the club and he is subjected to vitriol from his own people! You couldn't make it up, no wait and see, no I hope he is genuine. What the fuck is in it for him at this stage? PR? bump his status? This guys status is his bank...

I tend to agree with that statement based upon that is exactly what are current owners are. What I am hopeful about is that in conjunction with the other interested parties, who are businessmen, we can get over the line and move on from the wreck of CCFC.

By what are you measuring that statement? Current owners= disaster Dale= unknown. I am presuming this guy is not a criminal, just a guy who has come into some money and is looking at an emotional purchase. We will find out soon enough if he is fool or a serious bidder.

Maybe, maybe not. It will all come out in the sands of time.

this guy has come from left field, he doesn't say he is a businessman, he has stated clearly he has come in to money. He hasn't even met with the owners so he wouldn't be subject to a NDA. I wouldn't be so inclined to prejudge the guy. If he is a joker we are no worse off than now and if he is...

I don't get the Andreu love in. Just what exactly did he do to warrant being so badly missed or so highly regarded?

I don't bow to anybody with my love and gratitude for my hometown. Even I wouldn't argue why Coventry City were not on the bid. Our club is toxic, we are at the lowest point in our post war history and I could have made a bigger case for Coventry Bees had they survived.

You missed my point, its the posters stating that Coventry is a shit place and doesn't deserve the award.

Nick, you are preaching to the converted. The BID is the point and Coventry City are not sexy in terms of the bid-fact.

I understand what you are saying and believe me I wish things were different but I can also get why you would exclude us from such a bid. If you were to read this thread and were on the awarding panel you would steer clear of this city. That is our what our fellow coventrians think of the city...

All your points are valid. None change the optics that our club is irrelevant in the context of this bid. By the way even here in KSA the piss is taken when we lose to these clubs but as I point out to them we are now one of those clubs.

Really Ian1779? You think that Coventry City have a great story to tell? You equate our impact with that of the Beatles? Blinkers off and as much as I love my club and indeed the city of my upbringing I can't say that it is a big selling point for such a bid.

Wont dispute that Chiefdave! but if you were sell your home you wouldn't highlight your dry rot, damp or subsidence. This is not a quiz, it's a bid. 15 years ago a bid that would may not have highlighted JLR or diverse ethnic population. Times change and we are not relevant at the moment.

I saw the video the other week and actually was impressed with the multi cultural content, the people on it spoke of what Coventry has given them from refugees to a Chinese jaguar Land Rover designer but the Coventry City omission was not on my radar. I will tell you why! It's a sales video to...

We lost to a Yeovil side that all were tonking, we lost to FGR who were bottom and we beat Exeter, Swindon and Notts County. Since the first game Jones has scored once, McNulty the same and the rest except Nazon have scored zero. We can't break down teams that sit back and we have no plan B...

Can you remember which players wall the brick was on?

I salute you, Astute, like Stevefloyd you have exposed yourself and shared. We are not indestructiblle and we are vulnerable. Somehow it is much easier to have an illness or disease than admit to a mental issue. It's not ours but to anybody on here with an issue you'll never walk alone.

We are not machines and we are vulnerable, however we perceive ourself. When bad things come knocking we are not immune. Your strength is not exposing your weakness but facing up to it. I expect all will be liable to depression or being down, however you want to put it, and coming out the other...

It is not the last thing you want to do, otherwise you wouldn't have done it!

Yes it does and how we made a profit on it!
