    Seat Colours

    Don't think there's any probably about it. Even if they are going to change the seat colours they aren't going to do it that quickly. Wasps away kit is blue, maybe they'll do a complete rebrand as part of the move and change to blue - after everything that's happened in the last couple of...

    What does this actually mean for CCFC though?

    Surely you're not saying Les Reed was wrong are you Nick ;) We need something to hope for and that's about the only thing I can find so I'm going to stick with that!

    What does this actually mean for CCFC though?

    Its not an easy question to answer. If you take SISU at their word then absolutely nothing changes. We still have the 2 + 2 deal in place, ACL continues to exist so that agreement is still valid and will run it's course at which point we will have our new stadium to play in. If anything it is...

    Was this "Decision" a surprise?

    I don't think any of it should come as a surprise. Since Lucas has been in charge she has consistently said they will listen to any offers for the Ricoh. Seems SISU have banked on nobody else being interested.

    Sisu what are your plans for CCFC ?

    It looks like the total cost of getting a 250 year lease on the Ricoh is way below the cost for building an on the cheap stadium. Not putting an offer in seems crazy, it was clearly stated in the meeting there is still time for SISU to put their bid in, hopefully they've taken note of that and...

    Todays council meeting will be held in public

    That's the key quote so far. SISU need to get a bid in and buy the stadium themselves.

    Stadium seats

    You could do the multi-coloured seats trick, that also isn't as obviously empty when shown on TV

    Todays council meeting will be held in public

    You're spot on but if it goes tits up and Wasps go bust I imagine there would be some provision for it to revert to CCC. It's basically what we've been saying to SISU, you don't need to own the freehold to get all the benefits but they keep insisting you do.

    Todays council meeting will be held in public

    Think it means the senior team will be based in Cov and the academy is Wycombe or wherever it is now. Can't see that lasting, eventually it will all be based in Cov.

    Todays council meeting will be held in public

    I can't see that being kept in place permanently, eventually the RFU will quietly drop that requirement I'd imagine.

    CCFC reponse to Ricoh affair

    Not much to ask is it. I don't really care who owns the ground or who gets the money when there's a gig there - most other clubs don't have that kind of income. All I want is us to be there on a sustainable long term deal and get access to the revenues we generate.

    CCFC reponse to Ricoh affair

    Think they need to make a stronger statement than that. You can't say you're moving out but should be involved in discussions anyway. Just come out and say our first choice is to stay at the Ricoh long term with an ownership stake. They don't even need to stop talking bollocks about the new...

    Open Letter To Coventry Council

    Letter seems spot on to me. No one really seems to know what is happening so a chance to breath and hold some consultation would be good.

    100% of ACL, 250-year lease, £20m. C'mon Mr Fisher!

    They should still submit a bid in my opinion. At the moment we're a bit in limbo as everything the club is saying states they are building their own stadium and have no interest in the Ricoh. If they said our first choice is an ownership stake in the Ricoh and here is an offer at the very least...

    Labour group votes to approve £19.5m Ricoh sale to Wasps

    Blimey, away from the forum for a few hours and there's thousands of posts! To save me reading them all are we screwed or not or do we still not know whats going on?

    Questions for Waggott and Fisher at the Trust open meeting

    Did either of those get an answer from Fisher?

    Questions for Waggott and Fisher at the Trust open meeting

    Surely if they need primacy it will be in the contract they've just singed with ACL? I think this kind of thing is distracting from the bigger issues. Is Fisher trying to sidetrack people by getting them whipped up about things that can easily be resolved (already been said tonight that Wasps...

    Questions for Waggott and Fisher at the Trust open meeting

    And it was only last week his boss was saying they had no interest. If they could all get their stories straight it would be a start.
