All he's done here is quote the law. Quite obvious.

Wow I didn't realise you hated your own fans so much. Just wow.

I think when everyone talks about the amazing HR atmosphere they actually mean the West Terrace. The rest of the ground was no different to the Ricoh.

I remember some games at HR where you could hear a pin drop.

Chelsea was flat, Crewe was good though. Leeds was also good, I remember one of their fans coming on here saying that we were the noisiest home fans he had encountered for a long time.

But that's not what were talking about here.

Bollocks.

In an ideal world I wouldn't have sisu anywhere near the Ricoh. Anyway, you haven't answered my question. Maton was quoting the law, and he is correct. So I don't see how you can disagree with him.

That simply isn't true. The authorities can refuse to answer a question, they cannot respond to an foi request with a lie under any circumstances. No planning discussions have taken place.

You only care about Coventry City do you?

So what was your point then?

They haven't got plans because they havent discussed anything with the relevant authorities. What they might have at best is an idea. Which frankly means nothing.

All the council have done here is clarify the planning process, and that whilst Joy Seppala will base the future of the club based on spite, the council cannot involve spite in the planning process. Had Sisu actually done something in regards to a new stadium over the past 3 years then there...

Reading fans seem ok with that don't they?

And look where that got us. But hey ho, because Richardson started the destruction of our club that now means its fine for sisu to finish it off.

So you disagree with him where he says this?: “If we made a perverse planning decision, just because we didn’t like the owners, they would appeal and they would win. “The decision would be reversed and we would get a hefty fine. You can’t refuse applications on the basis of who is applying.”

I'm not sure that is the case. That would open up a whole lot of legal loopholes.

I suppose it all depends on who is lending them the money. I would wager that, in terms of the balance sheets, it is CCFC that is paying for the court cases, not sisu.

I don't know. But again, that's not a satisfactory answer to what I was asking.

See this is why it doesn't make sense to me, and I have yet to see someone come up with a satisfactory answer. Why do we need to build a build football ground to host these things? Why not just build a conference centre somewhere? What is the point of spending £30m on a football stadium when...
