    Pressley suing CCFC

    You have to ask shmmeee - he is probably busy finding a quote or two.

    Pressley suing CCFC

    There is ... CEO's can make a lot of damage and still receive a nice golden handshake.

    Are they worried?

    Pressley suing CCFC

    You forgot to put in a quote, so I am a bit lost. I can only assume you mean that I have said something about the council ...

    Pressley suing CCFC

    It's not the club suing SP - it's the other way around. And maybe - just maybe - the club has a good case? Innocent until proven guilty and all that.

    Bets for Today

    I rarely put a bet on us since I lost a lot of money when we won 3-2 at West Ham scoring the winner in overtime with the last kick of the match. Long time ago I know, but I can't erase it from memory. Today I think 1-1 (but I won't bet on it).

    Yeovil manager pretty much accepts that they will be relegated.

    Thing is they're not being relegated just because of their last 8 games - they have quite consistently been in the zone most of the season. The past 10 games alone they have lost to Crewe, Walsall, Orient and Colchester and it seems obvious the moral is broken. His remarks are aimed at take away...

    Donny Match Thread

    You do realise we're at home today? We haven't won with a 2 goal deficit at the Ricoh this season. How will the surface 'support' our game? I think a draw is in the cards, but hope for a 1-0 victory.

    Yeovil manager pretty much accepts that they will be relegated.

    They are not just 9 points from safety ... they will need at least 15 points from their remaining 8 games. That's not going to happen and I think Skivertons remarks are sensible.

    Wll said Spider

    I'm just guessing, but it could be all about the Ricoh? Not the club, not Wasps, not Sisu - just the stadium.

    Pressley suing CCFC

    And you can't imagine any situation - any clause - that could be interpreted differently by the two parties?

    Pressley suing CCFC

    I am going with a wild shot here, but what if there was a release clause in his contract that could be triggered if we entered the relegation zone? Then even if he was fired at a time we were out of the zone (though only on goal difference) ... there could be cases for both sides to argue...

    New Coventry City FC stadium plan seems 'crazy', says football finance expert

    Oh, I'm sure you would, but that's not my point. You ask an 'expert' on a subject specific to us and get a general reply. If I am diagnosed with cancer I am not interested in a general lecture in oncology, I want an expert to analyse the illness and decide the best treatment for me. The...

    New Coventry City FC stadium plan seems 'crazy', says football finance expert

    What makes a story 'interesting' is the angle it's presented with. Why didn't you ask the 'expert' if he had seen a business plan for the new stadium? Did you ask him if FFP/SMCP was part of his analysis? Did you ask him if 'our' style of football was helped by a surface shared with a rugby...

    New Coventry City FC stadium plan seems 'crazy', says football finance expert

    It's unfair he has seen the business plans and nobody else can!

    Possible Solution

    As a few have already said - we can't know until we see a business plan. Even that is probably never going to happen, so all we have is the rules of capitalism: If the plan seem viable then investors will be attracted. That's the first step to increase the revenues. Next step is to use that...

    Possible Solution

    I read your post like this: 'I want to see a viable business plan, and even then I don't believe they will stick to it because they are stupid and clueless in everything they do.' If that's the case you are not even trying to engage in a constructive debate like Don is, you're just dismissing...

    Possible Solution

    Just stop there for a second. Who would want to invest £11m in players in league 1? (Totally disregarding the whole idea of attracting players worth 11m who could make sure we got promoted could be a challenge). To put the numbers you want owners to gamble on the venture just suggest into...

    Possible Solution

    Lease money? Additional businesses? How did the 'investors' of the Ricoh recoup their investment? Or rather - how did they intend to recoup their investments?

    Possible Solution

    Like some super rich dudes in the Caribbean? There is so much money in this world that if sisu manage to put together a reasonable business plan they will not find it hard to get it financed. Of course it will help if the complex include some additional customers - like a hotel, some houses...
