    That scramble !!

    It was like the Atherstone ball game or whatever that one-horse town calls it.

    Not bad for a club that never signs any players.

    So you keep saying, but where are they? Who are they? I asked you earlier, name one homeless sporting team willing - and more importantly be able to afford - to move into the Ricoh.

    Agree, MMM. I'm not saying they couldn't survive without City, but I think they'd certainly miss us. Yes, you've listed a good few year over the last eight years. They are all one-offs and while they certainly bring in income, it's not regular and doesn't continue through the winter, though...

    Oh, I see. The crime of having a different view. Guilty. Been a fan myself for 40. Always looked on the bright side. As for figures, it's not for me to say, is it? It's up to City and ACL.

    While that may be true; I would probably take that from most people on here - I respect 'em, you see - coming from you that's a bit rich! As for the your Photocopier manufacturer bit, do you think they would have given £10M for sponsorship if it just a local exhibitions venue? I don't think...

    I guess because having a professional football club brings a lot of money into the local economy; jobs, opposition fans, fans (like me) who would never be seen dead in Coventry otherwise, the wealthy footballers spending their cash....

    Oh my mistake. I look forward to the "Mayfair Hedge Fund" and the club being thrown out so that the Ricoh Arena becomes the Premier Plumbing venue in the country. Mutton will be as proud as punch.

    Why is my perspective "interesting"? I want the club to stay at the Ricoh and pay a reasonable rent, one that gives enough income to ACL without crippling the club. That would be suitable to all parties, I would imagine.
