    Still unsure about the 150K offer.

    Legally they offered the deal to the company they had the lease arrangement with. Was it their fault if another company was claiming ownership of the team, even though 2012 accounts and league rules seemed to suggest the company with which they had the lease owned/should own the team? It seems...

    Well done Tom. Sturridge might play tonight Ginetta.

    Still unsure about the 150K offer.

    As I understand it, the lease for Coventry City to play at the Ricoh was between CCFC Ltd and ACL. So negotiations would be between those companies while the lease was in effect. At the time of the £150,000 offer in the summer, Paul Appleton was running CCFC Ltd as the company's administrator so...

    2046

    IIRC, didn't Tim Fisher predict gates would be about 3,000 if City were struggling and 7,000 if successful? The team is winning but the crowds remain around 2,000... It highlights how Sisu have misjudged the mood of most fans.

    Fantasy Football 2013-14

    Can anyone beat my genius transfer this week? I removed Gylfi Sigurdsson after he was dropped for Spurs' last game, was facing a price reduction and was up against competition from new transfer window signings. So, of course, who should score a brace today? Gylfi Sigurdsson. :facepalm:

    Pressley is better than Robins!

    I just highlighted some stats where Webster was the variable. Longjohnskyblue's earlier post selected Webster as the variable, not me. I did not give any commentary on them. I thought I'd leave it up to others to decide whether the stats supported longjohnskyblues' hypothesis or not.

    Pressley is better than Robins!

    Some 2013-14 season stats (competitive games only): Games without Webster: 2 Games with Webster: 5 Average number of goals conceded per game without Webster: 3 Average number of goals conceded per game with Webster: 1.8 Clean sheets in games without Webster: 0 Clean sheets in games with Webster...

    Sixfield rent

    Mr Fisher's so-called "League 1 average rent"... for a League 2 ground. I'm sure all those who fumed that Doncaster only pay £10,000 a year* will be on here soon screeching what a rip-off this is and attacking Northampton for charging too much. ;) (*If you believe Doncaster's stadium only...

    New post: FOI responses expose Coventry City Football Club’s “new stadium plans”

    Pax, read the blog post again. The author is not expecting plans to have been submitted.

    pizza war in coventry

    What a way to cheese these pizza guys off. What's your beef with them? Or are you just too chicken to stand out there in one of those boards? Afraid someone will pepper you with tomatoes? :D

    PFA Out of Contract List

    Hmmm, narrowing down the list to centre backs alone (http://www.thepfa.com/transferlist/listedplayers/sortbydate/cb/outofcontract/-1/-1/-1/1/) throws up mostly inexperienced youngsters (including two wearing Coventry City shirts) and the odd journey man (Michael Duberry hoping to have a 20th...

    Sheffield Utd - fit for a prince it seems...

    It appears the foreign investor who will be pumping money into Sheffield United is a Saudi Arabian prince: http://www.sheffieldtelegraph.co.uk/sport/sheffield-united/sheffield-united-blades-are-fit-for-a-prince-1-6006829 Prince Abdullah said: “I am delighted to invest in such a...

    Six. You forgot the fans - but don't worry, it's a common error. :(

    28 Days Later...

    With the interesting exception of SPWaverly's point - which poses the question: will we start to hear about new litigation in the next few weeks? - it appears you're right Italia. Thanks all (& good to know my deliberate selection of thread title worked Sterling!) ;)

    28 Days Later...

    If I have got my dates right, isn't today the 28th day since the CVA was rejected? A few questions for those that may know a bit more about how this stuff works: Did the 28-day cooling off period apply whichever way the decision went or only to one result or the other, or was the decision 28...

    Plenty of time left to turn it around Ginetta. Like you, at the start of the season (before the bargains emerge from the woodwork a la Michu last season) the rest of the squad did look so much better on the screen without RVP. And it would have been a nightmare if Bale wasn't off to Real Madrid...

    Fantasy Football 2013-14

    Thought I'd give this a bit of a bump given the other thread on the other bit of the forum. After two weeks The Only CCFC leads the way on 145 points, four points ahead of the fabulously named Eboue-merang, which itself is four points ahead of two other teams. Three of the top four teams...

    I'm not sure whether newcomers are entered with their earlier points scores or not. From memory I don't think that happened in the past but I think they have changed it this year, which is good. The SBT league is running from Gameweek 1 so if you had a team in Gameweek 1 I hope it will count...
