    Premier League Fantasy Football

    There is indeed one already (See this thread: http://www.skybluestalk.co.uk/threads/34639-Fantasy-Football-2013-14). League code is: 787008-196041 It seems to be a pretty strong league so far. My score puts me in the top 25% of all players in the game, but I'm not in the top half of the Sky...

    Coventry City FC YouTube Videos

    I'm going to guess it is this one below - now with over 25,000 views. I don't know if there is a different version out there, but this one was uploaded by SkyBluesPlayer so I very much doubt you'll succeed in a request to change the name to "the run that deserved a goal, SISU OUT"...

    CCFC anyone there?

    Sky Blue North East, does the last bit of your name have any connection to Sunderland?

    Thanks for the correction! :)

    and then there were 2

    In addition to Malaga, the BBC article on the Edge leaving also names Sean Jeffers as one of those who is not part of this season's CCFC first team squad, suggesting that there are four left. Maybe two have upped and gone and two are still training together locally? Maybe those players training...

    NEWSCoventry City: ACL call for administration to be re-run

    If I recall correctly, the accounts covering the years up to and including part of 2011 have been published by the owners but not since then - hence the transfer embargo. (I have a headache and can't recall right now if the administrator published some accounts for CCFC Ltd). There has been...

    Portsmouth- what on earth

    This is an interesting article on a Portsmouth fan who wrote about what was going on at his club: http://twohundredpercent.net/?p=23937

    NEWSCoventry City: ACL call for administration to be re-run

    Say, for the sake of argument, you take out a £21m loan at 5.5% interest over 50 years: A loan calculator tells me you will pay back £61.7m - or £1.23m a year. I don't know what the terms were on the old Yorkshire Bank Loan taken out to complete the stadium and I'm not sure which year the loan...

    Peter Knatchbull-Hugessen

    So is the question: Do you sell a £115million stadium development* for around £5-10million? Common sense suggests this doesn't really need an answer, but let's play it out anyway. The first piece of land available for redevelopment that I come across for sale near the Ricoh has an asking...

    Football league admit incompetance!!!

    A good day to bury bad news? It appears from the following article that the Press Association picked up on this story: http://uk.eurosport.yahoo.com/news/football-coventry-row-rumbles-173553198.html All the major newsrooms in the country will have access to PA stories, so you would think it...

    The community asset

    I've no idea - I haven't seen the balance sheets of those councils and therefore don't know if that money could have been used to earn a rate of interest for the council that could help keep council tax rates lower than they now are, or whether a particular project or service is no longer...

    The community asset

    I know you're playing a game and wanting attention Grendel, but I'm feeling charitable so I'll play along for a couple of minutes. I don't know the terms of the loan, but on the surface it might be a reasonable assumption that the council will be worse off if the loan is not repaid. But unless...

    The community asset

    If they were to give away the Ricoh for free would that include taking over the £14million loan from the council to ACL? If so, some might think that it was not 'free'. If no, some might wonder who would be left out of pocket by the £14million being unpaid... Please could you refine your...

    Football league admit incompetance!!!

    From the Telegraph report: So, Tim, you were saying that CCFC Ltd is a non-trading property subsidiary? Why should players' contracts have been registered to CCFC Ltd if it was a non-trading property subsidiary?

    Someone just made this point on Twitter: As the liquidation process is not complete, is there any chance this new information could lead to the administration process being reopened?

    He did indeed Nick. Any chance you can merge the two threads running on this so we can keep all the discussions in one place? Thanks.

    Football league admit incompetance!!!

    So when they became aware of this did the league inform Mr Appleton that, contrary to what I recall to be his own belief, CCFC Ltd did indeed have some players? I seem to remember him saying he couldn't do a deal to play at the Ricoh because the players were in Holdings...[/COLOR]

    Just asked this question on the other thread on the same article: Could ACL or any of the bidders take any legal action over this?
