    Coventry City owners invite council to talks over Sky Blues returning to Ricoh Arena

    Well, they've done what many on here were clamouring for, they've made the first move. They've asked for a meeting. Let's see how the Council respond. If the Council say "no deal with SISU" then come out and be honest and say it. And I also agree in the statement that Lucas should clarify...

    Hull Next?

    Meanwhile, in a dispute which has echoes of the one that has led to Coventry City playing in Northampton, Hull’s owner, Assem Allam, is threatening to build his own stadium in an attempt to force the council to sell him the KC, which is only 11 years old. Stadiums can be expensive to build and...

    Coventry City owners invite council to talks over Sky Blues returning to Ricoh Arena

    They've both blabbed to the press in the past. Remember Lucas' "Woman to Woman" statement. How do you view that? Differently, I guess.

    Coventry City owners invite council to talks over Sky Blues returning to Ricoh Arena

    Well, they certainly had the "desire" in the past, haven't they? If they don't want to sell to SISU then at least we can all move on. SISU can build their stadium and CCC will have their own sports arena.

    Coventry City owners invite council to talks over Sky Blues returning to Ricoh Arena

    Also. They can only spend capital (i.e. money from central government) on certain things. For example, a council service maybe be woefully short on staff. However, the authority can't use capital money to pay for staff, only revenue which they may not have much of. Which is why you get crazy...

    There are different "pots", capital and revenue.

    Coventry City owners invite council to talks over Sky Blues returning to Ricoh Arena

    Which is why ACL/CCC are trying to palm the development of the surrounding area onto the Club's owners, or potential owners when they were all over PH4 like a rash. Which reminds me. I thought he was buying the Ricoh...

    Coventry City owners invite council to talks over Sky Blues returning to Ricoh Arena

    Cllr Lucas has not so far confirmed that she will discuss a sale and does not appear to have commissioned an independent valuation to get the ball rolling

    Club statement: truth edit

    Spot on. I've read some odd things over the last few days.

    Coventry City owners invite council to talks over Sky Blues returning to Ricoh Arena

    Quite canny of SISU this. After the "protest" outside the council house fans were saying it's not up to ACL it's up to SISU to do all the running. Well, it seems like they are now doing that. I'm glad they've "outed" Lucas too as I've said before she's hiding behind the JR a little too much...

    Coach parking at Sixfields

    weird. The guy on here yesterday using phrases such as "self respect" and "feel ashamed" regarding fans going to Sixfields got 37 "likes". Shows the divide and attitude of a lot on here. Take Italia's and GPEs typical pathetic responses. I'm not going to Sixfields but I don't "feel ashamed"...

    22k break even myth !!!!

    Yes. it does. When we were relegated in 2001 our wages were 125% or turnover. People soon change their tune and are desperate to blame the club for our woes - even before SISU. People moan about wages but they still want to see Dublin, Huckerby, Keane, etc They want loads of players and moan...

    I was with im all the way until phrases such as "self respect" and "feel ashamed" were used. Shame, eloquent insults towards fellow fans but still insults.
