I can't disagree with much of that. You know though as well as I do that the real potential of that Arena has always been optimistically based around the football team moving on up the leagues not down. In another world and with more luck and better judgement, the Ricoh could have been gracing...

But what did they really get? Can you quantify that? It seems profits from the Tesco deal were used to finance the building of the Ricoh and other revenues that ACL have got from pie sales, sponsorship etc do not amount to that much either? The contracts gained from the likes of Compass would no...

If it was that simple I might abandon my stance but for them to sell, you have to have a buyer. They haven't been falling over themselves of late to get their hands on the club and it doesn't bare thinking about if smug Fisher and his devious employers got the Arena, developed the land around...

'Giving them something to sell'..................I just can't see any justification to giving them something to sell and why should they make a return on their investment. Their incompetency is only deserving of having to accept that they made a serious mistake in going into a business that they...

CCFC should be reunited with the Ricoh, I totally agree !

You make it sound like a piece of cake and that despite of all their incompetence, their management charges and exploitation of debt, despite Orange Ken, Northampton, the constant lies and bullshit about HR2 LEGOLAND, that people should roll over and give them everything they want because it...

Got to be honest, that pitch at Meadow Lane was shocking, if Northampton is anything like as bad then don't expect much free flowing football for a couple of months !! For once I'm glad I live in this part of the Midlands though, looking at the shocking water levels now rising around the Thames...

Truth is I think, with current player budget/wage structure, lower rent at the Ricoh and the Success SP has had this season which would have encouraged higher crowds in Coventry plus the Clarke sale and the Arsenal revenue, the club would have been able to break even this year !! Although only...

You honestly think that at any time from now until judgment day that everybody will agree on anything !??

Well meaning that you are, you are not living in the real commercial world ! If I gambled my house away, I'd have to rent somewhere to live and pay the appropriate costs but it wouldn't be my landlords fault and I couldn't accuse him of taking advantage !

and Delfouneso looked like a bloke who has an appalling scoring record !! Not impressed on Saturday !

The other income streams that have developed over the years and the restructuring of the loan has enabled them to reduce the rent. I'm not sure about the discussions at the beginning but the club had it's begging bowl out and a set of weak and self interested negotiators ! Commercial decisions...

Spounged off the club ?? No, I wouldn't put it like that at all. They provided a viable commercial partner to complete the stadium and kit it out when the club had completely run out of money/Lenders, they then as custodians and owners had to negotiate contracts for all other commercial...

I doubt you actually wrote that but clearly it's just an historical take on the sequence of events with little detail in the financial matters which is fair enough. I agree wholeheartedly that the rent was too high and had to be reduced and I also think that CCFC executives should have...

C'mon then Edgy, I'm dying to be educated, can you please bullet point WHY and how all the other so called parties are exactly culpable in this debacle and what they have/haven't done to rectify the situation, over to you ?!

RFC is a fictional little wind up merchant and no I don't think Fisher and Cardoza will get into bed together !

No they're not you troll. Now bore off !

It's a shocking situation and SISU have got really lucky with Pressley and his management of the kids. However I see yesterday as a bit of a turning point, the loanees IMHO were not up to much yesterday and even when Wilson arrives back on the scene it could take a while for him to fire again...

This might sound ridiculous and I'm not destroying your idea but there would have to be some sympathy to the away fans on the day, if they have travelled at considerable expense to have the game abandoned from the off. Somehow or another it would have to be communicated to them not to bother...

Yes, but I didn't take any pictures !! Plenty of drunk Cov fans in there and local stag parties!
