It's the first time I have seen those documents. Absolutely shocking.

The £1.3 million was also for use of the stadium on matchdays only. Aside from the retail unit, pre-Northampton all that £1.3 million bought us was use of the facilities for 150 hours a year. They also had the gall to charge us business rates on the basis we were using all of the facilties...

Wow, that's depressed the hell out of me. Reading a thread almost 6 years old full of the same arguments we're having now. All those wasted years..

Nobody has swallowed anything, and the comments have pretty much all been in agreement, that we have learned nothing new based on what we have seen, and that her appearance is long overdue. What comments are you reading? As for "Only in April she offered to drop the legals if she was granted a...

Just watched the extended clip. Still only 10 minutes out of a much longer interview so I would be interested to see the transcript. Lots of talk about aspiration and potential, but no real detail. I suspect it was edited for general SS viewers in mind more than fans of the club. Hopefully...

The first bit is just semantics tbh. As for the amount, I defer to your knowledge on that matter.

I know your are trying to downplay ST sales, which is fair enough. I think they will be better than you expect, but either way clearly way down on what they have would have been. In no way though do I think that poor ST sales would force the club back to the Ricoh. That will only happen if...

As soon as I was told that this interview had taken place I'd decided there and then to stay off twitter for the next couple of days. I can only imagine the sort of pond life that has surfaced this morning.

TBH, I was referring to those who do 20+ away games more than the casual traveller. To do that many away games is a huge commitment to the club, it's an outstanding effort. It's just strange that people are planning to do that, but are refusing to contribute financially to the club they clearly...

Nobody is saying they don't want large away followings. Of course we do. And a couple of enormous followings will get a little bit attention like you say. The issue is those who plan only to attend away games. We need people to back the club by attending home games, even if not as frequently as...

We're all guessing of course, but I think you're behind unduly pessimistic. We're currently selling 50-80 season tickets a day and that rate isn't slowing. It's about 1100 from what we can see, and corporate is on top, and because hospitality tickets are relatively cheap this year, that'll be...

I don't understand those who say 'away games only'. Their choice, and I guess this is their way of supporting the club. What they are saying in effect though, is that they want to support the club, but also want others to fund the club on their behalf. They'll go away and cheer on players who...

I think 1st game will surprise a few people. Any prediction is just a guess, but I think it will exceed most people's expectations.

Car parking season tickets now on sale for those interested.

Exactly, it is about brand awareness and recognition. They sell houses, and a quick sideways glance at a for sale sign and you immediately recognise the agent. I think it is quite clever branding, and how that brand might look on the front of a football shirt was probably not on their mind...

Nobody in the media has mentioned the comment from Duggins about SISU's stated intention of building a stadium just outside the city border being "an act of hostility". Of course, SISU then subsequently entered talks with CRFC about a joint venture at The Butts, very much IN Coventry. What...

Yeah, that was a lot earlier. CRFC were still playing at Coundon Road at the time iirc.

I'll always remember the time Jim Twyneham announced over the PA mid-game that Mike Hunt needed to call home urgently. I like to think he wasn't fooled and just said it for a laugh.

At 8.30pm on a Sunday night the entire retail park is closed. I'm not sure how strict they will be given that the entire car park would be empty otherwise. To be honest, they're missing a trick, they could charge and make a few quid.

Agree with the first point, but not sure I understand the second one. There was very little stick given to the players last season, I can only recall one game where the line was crossed (the stick given to Burge), other than that nothing of note, and certainly nothing you don't get at any club...
