    A Prison of Measured Time...blog update

    Well it seems Les Reid has incredibly thin skin for a supposed seasoned hack. The claim in the Telegraph that it was a Paxman-esq is beyond satire. For a 2 hour interview there was an awful lot of unanswered questions. She claimed an 60 million investment already, that they were willing to fund...

    So overall the JS statement positive or negative

    A brazen attempt to manipulate fans emotions. We can afford to stay at Northampton for as long as necessary, you fans want the club back at the Ricoh, we will only ever come back if we effectively own the Ricoh. Therefore we desperately need you fans to pressurise ACL to surrender to our...

    We'll Come Back To The Ricoh...

    Agree doesn't really tell us that much that we didn't all already know. Just a rehash of past events from SISU's viewpoint. No real meat on the bones. No new developments about the new stadium, or even a timescale when fans can expect 'concrete' news. Just a suitably vague promise about future...

    Les reid's ct article

    But equally you may ask why are so many fans so concerned that SISU don't sell CCFC without making a loss.All fans want the club back at the Ricoh, but it seems clear the vast majority of fans want the club back but without SISU in charge. The losses SISU have made are their sole...

    Les reid's ct article

    Well I presume it helps define the future.Some people think ACL can survive without CCFC, some people hope they can,whilst there are some people who think or maybe hope ACL can't survive without CCFC. This has become the great unknown, and maybe will decide what ultimately happens. If ACL can...

    Port Vale chairman on CWR

    I think most fans would agree that long term, the football club needs to own a/the stadium, or at least own the revenue streams from the stadium. The trouble is SISU want to do this and would probably then be wiling to sell, the problem is they seemingly want to get at least all of their money...

    Port Vale chairman on CWR

    He also stated that the club had provided the FL with a million pound bond, which has been admitted as not the case, just an undertaking to pay that bond in 3 years, if no new ground is forthcoming. He talked a lot about the saving on the rental payments, but conveniently overlooked the huge...

    So Paying for Sky is against the NOPM ethos - What a cock that bloke is

    Well now you have got me thinking. My plumber who services my boiler every year is I know a big City fan, should I ask if he is going to Sixfields, because I would to hate to think I was helping him go there and thus breaking my NOPM. Maybe it would be safer finding a plumber in future who is...

    So Paying for Sky is against the NOPM ethos - What a cock that bloke is

    So Sky Blues fans who have Sky maybe to watch a variety of sports, should cancel their Sky contract or be in breach of NOPM. That's some bizarre thinking, or he is just being pedantic. You have to wonder if CWR is under any threat from SISU, as there seems a huge reluctance on their part to...

    Time to step up NOPM?

    Income from home games dropped by over 6 figures each game, corporate sponsorship has virtually dried up, no shirt sponsorship, a club shop that is a wheelbarrow. I trust your job is not that of a financial adviser.

    Fisher: Most will be back by the third home game

    But these aren't normal times are they? We are all CCFC fans and in normal times it is taken as a given every fan will want the team to win. However for a lot of fans there number 1 priority is to get the club back to where we all know it belongs, in Coventry. A lot ,probably most fans believe...

    Fisher: Most will be back by the third home game

    You do realise the 2 aren't mutually exclusive.Particularly with FFP the link becomes absolutely critical. If we start next year at Sixfields, how many of our young stars will still be here. There is no guarantee that the next young crop of academy players will be at the same level as Christie...

    Why NO Protests outside the Council House?

    Well they marched out of the Alan Higgs Centre,'promising' never to return. Warwick had all the facilities that the academy needed, or so SISU told us.Yet just a few short weeks later ,reality struck and they have effectively had to come begging for a return back to the Higgs Centre. If they...

    pete from Cheylesmore

    He lives in Styvechale ,Frankton Avenue I believe. But yes he makes Fisher seem personable.I think the fact that so few people are going to Sixfields is really getting to him. You genuinely get the impression he would be disappointed if a deal was done to return to Coventry.

    Anyone else heard of potential SISU Ricoh deal?

    Its ok Fisher has promised us a brand new shiny stadium.

    Why NO Protests outside the Council House?

    Well you just have, nothing at all to stop you organising one. If you feel that strongly about it, then organise a march from Gosford Green.

    More Images from Jimmy's Hill

    Well to be honest in many ways I found his comments strangely reassuring, not so much for the bitterness he exudes but the utter desperation of his rant. The simple facts that he can't ignore was that last Sunday saw the lowest gate in the club's history, no amount of bile can disguise that...

    Ricoh

    I can remember going to a shareholder's meeting at Highfield Road in the 1990's ,and we were all shown a mock up of Arena 2000,proudly displayed in a plastic case. You could go down to the planning department in Coventry city centre and actually see really detailed plans of every floor, at our...
