If its 1 mile from the boundary its likely to be in another town.

Probably wouldn't go. It has to be in or literally next to the city boundary for me to still class it as Coventry City FC.

ACL will give the most detailed answers. Otium and CCC will each answer only the questions they want to answer. FL will reply about how they don't comment on specific cases and refer back to Otium/CCC/ACL

The only way I can see not returning ties in with this is if they win the JR then they can claim for damages.

Facts and figures suggested otherwise though.

The means being moving to Northampton and decimating our fanbase.

Ends justify the means?

The problem with the deal is it contradicts Sisu's plan of distressing ACL.

They had a 45 year agreement this time last year yet they managed to worm their way out of that.

I fail to see what difference it makes whether its 10 years or 3 years.

http://www.coventrytelegraph.net/sport/sport-opinion/sisu-rejected-latest-ricoh-arena-6373747 Good article. Better than the usual Les Reid stuff. Tells Nikki Sinclair how it is.

You mean like Les Reid?

I think they would be looking at a bit more than that. CCC put in directly around £13m (from what I recall anyway), based on inflation from 2003 that is now worth £17.5m Higgs put in £6.5m, would be worth nearer £8.75m today. Then to repay the £14m mortgage, you would be looking at nearer £40m...

What sort of slimy shit makes a comment like this: "There is no point at all in dredging up the discredited landlord-tenant debate. We cannot return to the clutches of a rapacious landlord which has done so much to damage the club through two generations of ownership.” The man is nothing more...

But if its cheaper to get it through the council then what's the point? That's the trouble with politics, too much ideology and not enough common sense. If ACL as an independent business can pay a rate of 2% to the council, or 4% to YB, then they would have to be stupid to not get the money off...

I never knew that. I always wondered why my Dad used to insist on parking in that crappy one behind the Belgrade!

Have ACL been GIVEN money by the local authority?

They might. They feel a great moral duty to stand up to the evil of open democratic institutions.

Good for the local economy though. Those at the Get Cov back to the Ricoh group will be pleased as they were worried about the loss of income to the city's economy.
