    Ricoh Arena Has New Tennants!!

    If this were a saturday afternoon team you'd have a point, but it quite possibly is the best deal they can get for a two o clock game on a weekday.

    Ricoh Arena Has New Tennants!!

    It's because he is misrepresenting it, the money lost by looking after the pitch is happening whatever, the extra costs from these people playing here will almost certainly be significantly less than they are paying acl. So while the total costs to look after the pitch are probably higher than...

    Ricoh Arena Has New Tennants!!

    if ccfc come back and if acl continue to have other games there during the week and if this negatively affects ccfc (ie the pitch suffers) then I'll criticize acl for it. Until then good for them to do everything they can to stay profitable.

    Ricoh Arena Has New Tennants!!

    acl, though floodlights wont be used for this, most of the other costs though they keep having to pay whatever to keep the facility going, so getting someone in to use it is obviously sensible, the actual increased costs from letting kids play there a few times is very little and presumably they...

    Ricoh Arena Has New Tennants!!

    It looks to me like this academy is a business, they are presumably paying to play at the ricoh in order to get them more exposure, to attract better players and ultimately make themselves more money. Some local team gets little benefit from doing this so wouldn't pay enough. I doubt this is acl...

    Ricoh Arena Has New Tennants!!

    I didn't say you were, but there is criticism for the ricoh from you, for stealing this academy, if there is indeed an issue with playing at the ricoh for this academy the problem is with footballcv, not the ricoh. It's also the case that this is a residential academy and so there is obviously...

    Ricoh Arena Has New Tennants!!

    you know full well the costs when you arn't needing to open 4 stands and clean up after ten k people are not remotely comparable. You are just being an ass for no reason.

    Ricoh Arena Has New Tennants!!

    Sisu are not doing what they think is best for ccfc though, no one with any sence for a second belives thats what ccfc are doing, they have never been able to demonstrate even slightly why this course of action is best for ccfc and we all know how easily we can show it not to be in our best...

    Ricoh Arena Has New Tennants!!

    I'm not defending this, I'm just responding to everything I think is rubbish, I think it's irrelevant, I don't know the situation at all but there is absolutely no reason at all to think the academy are doing anything but what's best for themselves and their kids, the fact that they train north...

    Ricoh Arena Has New Tennants!!

    your posts in this thread are a joke, you have no reason to belive they were invited rather than asked to use the venue and even if they were clearly chose to do so because it was best for them and the kids, as I've already said they train much closer to Coventry than Northampton, though the...

    Ricoh Arena Has New Tennants!!

    what? clutches at straws? in what way? I think this news is just about irrelevant for what reason would I need to clutch at straws to defend that position? If the ricoh had built up that they were announcing a major new tenant that sure this would be embarrassing, but they didn't even mention...

    Ricoh Arena Has New Tennants!!

    They train at St Georges park which is much closer to coventry than northampton and they currently play in corby which is slightly closer to northampton than the ricoh but not by much. but seriously who cares, it doesn't affect us, presumably they are doing it because its best for them, its...

    You are a piece of work, I know you are smart enough to know you are massively misrepresenting everything.

    Ricoh Arena Has New Tennants!!

    Joke Thread? Would be very bad news if they got a proper new main tenant for the pitch, I can't see its very likely though, hopefully im right.

    Actually I have to take it back somewhat, the last time I checked out the content on youtube was in the summer and it was completely unacceptable, having just checked the recent stuff its for the most part much better.

    Best digital content? it's almost unwatchable, kids in their bedroom make better quality youtube videos, no one at the club seems to have heard of hd.

    Loyalty replaced by greed or ambition ?

    I'm sure money is a factor, also moving (physically moving city) was a much bigger percentage cost back then, ie if you are on £500 a week and offer you a 20% payrise to move it might not be worth it, all the costs of relocation will eat up that £100 a week increase for quite a while and your...
