    I think we're all saying pretty much the same thing. However, WSCP I'm not sure that the £30m+ can be protected. All that it is now, is an interesting historical fact. I don't know how SISU do their book-keeping, but I would be amazed if there isn't a very hefty provision in their books...

    I accept that. However many businesses need funding from parent entities and/or the renewal of bank facilities, but seem to manage to achieve this without failing to file their accounts etc. When a business is in the financial position of CCFC (and particularly when it's a high profile...

    It's true that a budget approval process is a fairly standard part of corporate life. What are not standard parts of corporate life are : 1) Public comments that the funding of a company is not guaranteed beyond a point in the near future and 2) Inability to file accounts within the...

    'Staying Up' by R.A. Gekoski

    Almost true...... The story was always in the book. This upset Dion who complained to the club who consequently stopped selling the book in the club shop. Once Dion was on his way to Villa, it magically reappeared on the shelves.

    Why I think League 1 is a must for us...

    If he says the sun will rise tomorrow morning, I don't think that makes him the Oracle - it's just seeing something that's happened regularly in the past and extrapolating it into the future. Some might argue that CCFC selling players is a better bet than the sun rising tomorrow..........

    Coventry City financial director quits

    I suppose at least "long commute" makes a change from the old favourites of "to spend more time with his family" and "to explore other business opportunities".

    Coventry City financial director quits

    Yes really. Without financing in place the auditors won't sign off the accounts on a going concern basis. Consequently they'll have to be redrafted on a realiseable value basis.

    Takeover Update?

    We have their explanation - funding has not been guaranteed for the next year so the accounts can't be signed off (on a going concern basis). I guess it's a matter of opinion whether or not you consider this reasonable. Personally I think it's just another example of the poor management and...

    CWR Ian - Is he real 2

    Not a great game, but we won and our keeper didn't have a save to make. Feeling good about the result, tune in to CWR for the drive home. Then that plank comes on. Time to turn over to listen to the rugby.

    MMM - I have to admire your continued attempts to use logic in this debate. I can only assume that it's done more in hope than expectation........ :p

    I was right behind the goal - it looked like it was heading for the top corner, but swerved a little more at the last second....

    Soc meeting

    I imagine it's a good few more than just those on the SOC coaches. I wouldn't normally go to Reading away, but 2 of us will be heading there from Shropshire and meeting up with 3 of the family from London at the game.

    Keys on Talksport this morning

    I'd guess that as we've heard nothing official, they're probably still talking.

    My Away Day Experience In Blackpool

    Most prevalent in the West End in the mid 70's. The other similar one - a few years earlier - was "Spider - Brogan", as between those who favoured Chris Cattlin for left back and those who preferred Jim Brogan. Ah the 70's......... (drifts off into a warm nostalgic mist....)

    a rumour from a "source"

    To sell a player you need: 1) A club that wants to buy him and 2) The player's agreement that he will join that club on the terms offered. The fact that a player has not been sold does not mean that his club have not tried to sell him.

    hoffman to meet CCFC board

    I've never really understood what SISU were offering to co-investors. By anyones' standards they haven't made a success of turning the business around, they've alienated (many of) the supporters and it appears that they've been told that they can forget owning the Ricoh. Getting someone to...

    hoffman to meet CCFC board

    What you say makes sense - in the short term. SISU accept relegation, sell pretty much anyone they can get a fee for and so then cover a large part of the lost Championship revenue for the 2012/12 season. What I don't understand is what comes next. We have the cash to see us through a year...
