    Disheartening Sky Blue's Story On The Way..

    Its a no win all round now for SISU as even if they Sue every adversary into the ground surely they will alienate all of the decent people of Cov and Warks ! hence having no customers to buy their fucking pies !

    Disheartening Sky Blue's Story On The Way..

    Oh God another eleventy billion pages of posters guessing the ins and outs. The bad publicity will likely be another nail in the hedge funds coffin in the eyes of most Coventry people unless the charity really has done wrong !

    So what will be the outcome?

    Persistent stalemate !! I can see a new flower meadow being muted, they're all the rage at the moment. Maybe they could open up the concourses for the homeless if the weather gets bad?!

    Hinckley AFC at the Ricoh?

    Oh dear, how gullible ?! Of course it was one of the Hinckley/Leicester types taking the piss. They have a perfectly good stadium at their level they can use. They really struggle for support though, for a town of its size they barely get about 400 home fans to a match. They'd only need one...

    Part from Paul Fletcher's Book

    I have no sympathy for the hedge fund whatsoever and their immoral actions but it would have been helpful if the club at the time had some stronger negotiators to at least gain benefit from the footfall that they would inevitably bring and pay a more reasonable rental fee. The football club were...

    This Situation..

    Reading between all the lines I'd say no-one involved wants to sell to the hated and incompetent hedge fund. I'm sure if a genuine buyer came along who would legally guarantee attachments to the club and redevelop the area to the benefit of Coventry they would...

    Part from Paul Fletcher's Book

    Its all fairly simple and straightforward to me. The clubs relegation from the Prem just as the more lucrative TV deals were washing around from SKY, and that coupled with the collapse of ITV digital and a huge wage bill hanging over them from paying poorly performing players a Kings ransom...

    Highfield Road and the Ricoh Arena

    Fantastic memories of HR, great games, great crowds, great players. I was young, carefree and life was all about football. By the same token the world keeps rolling on and HR had become run down and antiquated. Squeezing in seats where they didn't belong, the smoking ban, piss poor facilities...

    Proud of the Ricoh?

    You must surely remember when the main water at Coombe was open as a boating lake. We used to bike from Burbage, via Cropston Magna [ To gorge ourselves at the Strawberry farm} to Coombe whence we would hire a couple of row boats or canoes on the lake, it usually ended up in a water fight and...

    Proud of the Ricoh?

    There is a nice large statue in the City centre showing a cricketer, footballer and rugby player together from a few years back when all 3 teams I think won their respective leagues !

    Proud of the Ricoh?

    Leicester is a very pertinent comparison for me living in this corner of Sth West Leics. Last weekend saw their football team crush Derby to stay top, the Rugby team reached the last 8 of the European Cup and their basketball team won the cup at a packed NIA. I'll tell you what though the people...

    Proud of the Ricoh?

    I brought along a lot of friends and business associates to matches at the Ricoh { some from abroad} and all without fail thought that the stadium was a credit to the City. I have great memories from HR but they'd given up on it and it was crumbling away at the end. We were very lucky to get a...

    Proud of the Ricoh?

    Well said MMM, what the fuck went wrong with you Edgy? You used to be a decent poster on GMK in better days, you now seem to be brainwashed by Fisher and Co's poison and spout rubbish like this? When you come over the brow of the hill from town and look across at the Ricoh, it is a fantastic...
