Seems quite a reasonable position to me when you consider how important the football club is to the viability of the Arena. ACL could just concede to these requests and problem solved? If it is that simple, why aren't people calling on ACL to do exactly that? Well, I suspect it has a lot to...

Toxic? Absolute nonsense. The atmosphere is not toxic enough. When we played at Sheffield United they were terrible, and their fans weren't shy to let them know it. That was the turning point for them, they got a good roasting and they responded to it. So many times this season we have been...

Re the trust's aims. All wishy-washy nonsense. At this time, the biggest threat to the survival of our football club are the legal proceedings instigated by ACL. Where is the public condemnation of that? Shouldn't you be urging ACL (with suitably strong language) to halt these proceedings...

Your little addition at the end ".. oh and a Premier League standard ground as well" spoke volumes, a clear indication of which side of the fence you stand, despite your protestations to the contrary. Almost everything I see you post is done to try to contradict or undermine those that are...

I have no doubt ACL puppet master 'Mutton the Milkman' has an awful lot to do with the breakdown in negotiations. The man is an imbecile. Is it any wonder that this monosyllabic moron has failed so miserably to attract investment when representing the city on the world stage at events like...

The mentality of some is completely twisted, it's almost as if they think ACL are doing the football club a favour. You think this is a good deal? Even if you accept the figures you quote, it still represents a net contribution of 150K per year for a 3rd division football club. The arrogance...

I never said anything about the club official stating the debt had been written off as equity, it was Fisher that stated that some time ago. Whether or not this has happened or will happen will not become clear until the next set of accounts are filed. If it doesn't happen then that will be a...

Whatever you say sweetheart.

Nobody has said it is worth millions, and the club is not currently loss making if you take the rent out of the equation. The club is almost on an even keel and has roughly broken even this season up until recent events. Accessing those revenue streams would help, and at least make the club...

This is a good point. You only have to look at the amount of day trippers last week. Some clubs seem to approach it almost as a cup tie, especially on a Saturday when they tend to bring bigger away followings (big for those clubs anyway), and their players seem to raise their game accordingly...

Yeah, I was in late teens so that sounds about right. Good day out that was.

I have been to Falkirk a few times, but only to watch East Stirling :facepalm:(long story), but always made to feel welcome up there and had some good times. Went to watch you one year play a cup tie at Stranraer (you lost), but seem to remember a really good following from Falkirk that day and...

For those of you that care about this sort of thing (and I appreciate some don't) these are the latest away averages for League 1: 1,651 Sheffield U 1,173 Coventry C 957 Portsmouth 841 Swindon T 801 Preston NE 704 Bournemouth 652 Doncaster R 600 Tranmere...

He was not referring to grammar and you know it. Whether or not it is grammatically correct is neither here nor there, the implication was that I was in some way trying use language that is synonymous with football hooligan culture hence the reference the Football Factory, when all I did was...

What? What on earth are you babbling on about? So if somebody asked you after an away game "how many Cov were there", you'd think he was making a reference to football hooligans? Cov = Coventry just in case you weren't aware of that fact. So I'll rephrase it for you: "I saw a group of about...

What's the Burton game got to do with anything? That's a one off game which in the context of this season was not a big game, and tickets sales were from a standing start. There are 5-6K who would stay with this club regardless, plus you'll always have that big pool of casuals who would pick...

I don't have the romantic view of life outside of the football league than some have, but let's get serious for a minute - if we reformed in the BSP, or even the league below, we would be the biggest club to EVER play at that level in the modern era, by a mile. The idea that a club with our fan...

There are no rules that I am aware of. As a new entity you can apply to join at whatever level you like, you could apply to join Legaue One again (but no way other clubs would accept that). I suspect an application would be made to the BSP, and it would go to a ballot amongst the clubs in that...

I saw about 20 Cov with their faces covered heading for the underpass shortly after full time. Someone I know who works in Next says there were big groups of City fans looking trouble and that there were a couple of big flare ups that she witnessed. You could sense it all afternoon yesterday...
