    Explain away. When you look at what is being said on here and elsewhere the suggestion is we abandon any thought of a ground at BPA, CCC have stated there are no other sites available in the city and the local MPs are asking the FL to refuse any application by the club to play outside the city...

    Sky have got the film up on demand as well. Never seen it and not sure if I should watch it now or wait until the series is over.

    The FT is paywalled, you'll have to paste the article in here if you want anyone to be able to read it.

    There was a note in the most recent accounts about this. The upfront fee for Maddison was used to repay some of a short term loan made by SISU to cover the cash flow problems caused by the miscalculation in breakeven. The rest of the loan remains as a rolling credit facility.

    No they didn't "The Board of Arena Coventry Limited (ACL) announces that it has made an application to the High Court in London to request that it make an administration order against Coventry City Football Club (CCFC)." But you're saying we should only go after the Ricoh and discard all other...

    Latest SCG Minutes

    Don't get me wrong. Not saying it is in any way likely just that the longer everyone cries BS and doesn't get behind it the longer SISU can use it to stall things. If everyone got behind it then the details you mention like how it would be paid for and what our status would be could be pressed...

    Realistically they won't go back as far as Sixfields, they'd look at what's happening now. So you'd look at not having a long term deal at the Ricoh - Wasps have publicly stated they ended talks and won't now talk to the club; not building a new ground - just need to shows CCCs attempts to block...

    Brilliant, so Wasps say £2m a year or you're out and we just agree.

    Interesting, so on that basis you must believe ACL shouldn't have started the process of putting the club into administration based on a comment from Fisher. Equally CCC should never have assumed SISU didn't want to purchase the Ricoh based on Fishers comments.

    So potentially there could be a way forward for the club where it can thrive in the future by leaving the Ricoh but you wouldn't even want to consider that?

    Well if they can't appeal they'll just start another court case.

    England V Slovenia

    That was a lot like watch our first 10 games this season. I don't expect us to be winning every tournament but with the level of talent we have available we should be doing far better than we are. How have we managed to be so bad for so long?

    He gave details in the last SCG meeting minutes. I don't see why you would be so against it. If tomorrow the trust, CCC, CT and anyone else involved said we're 100% behind a move to the Butts lets get on with it then in a relatively short space of time SISU would have to get the plans out in...

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    I don't think people are going it gleefully or in a told you so way. A lot of people who voted remain had concerns about the impact of a brexit. Nothing that has happened since has removed those concerns, if anything they've increased. If we had a clear plan people might be able to relax but...

    But while they can still bang on about moving to the Butts they don't have to sign up to a long term deal. Call their bluff and when it all falls apart then even the FL won't be able to give one of their exceptions as it will have been shown they can't deliver. Given how long we've been putting...

    Latest SCG Minutes

    If everyone thinks it is impossible then I'd go for the calling their bluff approach. Get the trust right behind it, get the council saying they will do what they can to help and then everyone ask Fisher and Sharp to show the plans and how it will be funded.

    England V Slovenia

    I was supposed to be going out tonight, decided to stay in and watch this. Big mistake. What a load of crap. They all owe Joe Hart a pint, they'd be at least a couple down now if it weren't for him.
