Why would they liquidate the club? As poor a state as the club is in would it not be worth more as a going concern than selling off any assets which seem pretty much limited to Ryton these days. And of course the value of Ryton is impacted by the council saying redevelopment for housing would...

Given that it takes about 2 minutes on line but about an hour in the store might be an idea to look into installing some self service points like you get at the cinema.

Should have taken peoples details and offered to call them in the week to take the order over the phone at the early bird price.

BTW, the early bird season ticket price is available online until midnight.

Tweet the club and let them know you were turned away. They might be able to sort you the same price over the phone.

Have they got a new slimmer Sam suit or is it just the way the photo was taken? Good to see this sort of thing, they need to get Sam out and about as much as possible with the school holidays coming up.

Assuming that true then definitely something the SCG need to get onto, that's exactly the sort of thing they are supposed to sort rather than bitching at each other.

Getting TM is a definite positive, didn't think SISU would pull that one off, especially when it was revealed he would only sign if his conditions were met. The new kit and deal with Just Sports is good. A new fully stocked shop with decent kit and training wear in there should generate much...

I have never known anyone so determined to stick to there view that they will ignore every single fact presented as you Tony, guess I should congratulate you for that at least.

No it doesn't, the only thing it confirms is that the council are incapable of being straight up and truthful where this matter is concerned.

Can you show where in that post it says that CCC offered SISU the same terms they eventually sold ACL to Wasps under?

Read it again, CCC never agreed to extend the lease to 125 years and Justice Hickinbottom stated there was "no possible way the council would be willing to agree a transaction with Sisu". And of course even if SISU were 100% convinced a 200 year lease was available despite there never having...

If you're referencing what I think you are referencing then you are talking about SISU's negotiations with Higgs not CCC. SISU proposed purchasing Higgs share of ACL and as part of that deal the lease would be extended to 125 years which would have needed the approval of CCC. They entered into a...

Would also expect it will bring an end to the promotion the trust did on behalf of the ladies team. What happens if and when we get new owners if they are big supporters of womens football and start a new womens side under the Coventry City banner with the full backing of the club? I suspect in...

Tony, there is zero evidence to suggest that CCC were prepared to sell ACL to SISU under the same terms they sold to Wasps. There is however plenty of evidence to suggest they would not offer that, or indeed any other deal to SISU or any other past or potential owner of the football club...

I can't imagine it costs a huge amount to run the ladies side. Are any of their players full time and salaried? If they aren't then the costs are surely in line with the likes of Sphinx. Would have thought if they made it known they needed backing and started a fundraising drive they wouldn't...

No and at no point have I, or anyone else, said that. What I have said is that if what is stated on this thread is correct and ACL refused to allow Coventry City Ladies to play any further matches at the Ricoh, which as far as I know is new information, they have questions to answer. Whilst it...

That is not what I'm saying at all. What I am saying is that it requires two parties to engage in negotiations. From what I can see every time SISU have attempted to negotiate with CCC they have been given the brush off. Simply put CCC did not want to sell ACL to CCFC, the judge in the JR could...

Personally I think agents need to be removed from the game. Think the PFA should take on responsibility for advising players on contracts, could be funded by contribution from transfer fees or a union style subscription.

When TM was first talking about making signings he said he was going to identify roles that needing filling and then potential players to fill those roles. He stated that if the first player they tried to sign didn't sign it wasn't an issue as the supply of players far outweighs the demand for...
