4 weeks from the time they were last told no appeal from appeals court, so by my reckoning 2 weeks tomorrow. Ricoh Arena: Court of Appeal rejects Coventry City owners' judicial review bid

Yup, Eastwood repeated the assurances at a SBT meeting but I can't remember exactly what he said. But unless it is in a contract assurances are worthless & unenforceable if circumstances change.

Absolute nonsense. I've even been giving some praise to SISU for managing the club well in the last 2 years. However I still don't think SISU are suitable owners for a sports club with deep local roots. I agree with OSB their primary objectives are not the same as those of a successful local...

Probe finds Coventry councillor Rois Ali breached code of conduct over non-declaration of business interests referred to police and making threats

There are also people out there who say it glorifies war when it does nothing of the sort.

I don't know why the Council decided to pay that amount and not delay and negotiate harder, it is a question worth asking. That also smells fishy. Was there something time critical in the situation. Answers on a postcard. PS I found this link about a £21M commercial finance deal falling...

Ha ha, I'm doing Line of Duty 3 as its being rebroadcast on Sony Crime(?) for some reason I missed it.

100% spider. Never heard Cattlin referred to as anything else, Peter Bonneti was known as the cat

I don't know why it was only a 50 year lease to begin with. Maybe someone else has a view, what do you think. It seem awfully short for a property lease. The council paid all that money because Dear Bryan left everyone in the lurch and had to pay the his Dutch contractors by letting them have...

I was beginning to think nobody else had watched it. :emoji_confused: There is a lot going on, you have to pay attention.

Irrelevant. I've highlighted the Council land purchase that created the hole in the numbers. It would have been £2M if CCFC had got finance to buy direct from BG. SISU were always trying to get the bulk of this written off as part of a purchase agreement but Wasps swallowed it whole, which is...

Thus covering the hole in finances created by CCFC/Richardsons bad business and not giving state aid as SISU tried to show and failed. Between the proverbial rock & hard place, a situation largely created to Richardson's fiscal mismanagement. It sucks for the club but it was not the Council that...

You know where that loan originated don't you. It was a hole CCFC/Richardson left in the Arena finances because the club were too big a risk to lend to. It all spirals from where they lost the (rather good) land deal BR had set up with BG and had to let their Dutch contractors buy the land they...

The UK is issuing a coin to celebrate our exit.

and reality finally bites... wouldn't lay odds against her being forced out earlier thought. Angela Merkel to step down in 2021 I wonder which of May or Merkel will be first to go?
