That is a question you would need to direct to Fisher himself. If I was to take a guess the approach was made after they had a strop and moved out of the Higgs. Ryton doesn't have the facilites needed to retain their academy status so I would summise that Fisher was looking at alternative. As we...

No he hasn't, he clearly said he'd spoken to 2 councils about the new stadium. He may, from what's in the N&B council, have made an enquiry to them but he hasn't made an enquiry to any other council. The reponse from Rugby council was to do with training ground and the summary of the reponse was...

it comes as a shock to me as well. we're looking at this the wrong way. they're going to build the stadium in the sky, it's so far up they don't need to speak to any of the local councils and they'll make money by selling pies on the plane you have to take to get there. SISU can't really spin...

Fisher very clearly stated they were speaking to 2 councils - a lie. He also said those councils were very interested and there was an ongoing dialogue (reports, plans etc) - a lie.

which is very different from Labovich and Fisher stating they were talking to 2 councils who were very keen and economic assesment reports were being carried out. anyone could phone up the council and ask a couple of questions about building a stadium, that's a million miles from actually...

So they've spoken to N&B council but nothing has happened since. That seems at odds with Labovich and Fisher banging on about the councils in question falling over themselves in excitement at how much money this would bring in for them and wanting economic assesments. You could almost say SISU...

That's about it. What we do know for a fact that we didn't before is that both Labovich and Fisher have outright lied when they have stated they have been talking about the proposed new stadium with 2 councils. Not sure if this is the only available site in N&B but it seems very unlikley they...

Just a slight overreation then! Point still stands just substitute Bedworth United in place of Nuneaton Town. Although as Nuneaton Town are covered by the same council that this site is located in I'm sure they could also raise an objection if they so wished.

So you're agreeing with me than that SISU have made no attempt to locate the stadium in the city. Why would it be denied on the ground of sustainability, ecological and Environment issues and could you also explain why this issues only relate to Coventry and not to anywhere in the 'Coventry...

But none of that would apply to a greenfield site less than 2 miles from the Ricoh? Why would there be ecological issues building on a site in Coventry? Most sites in Coventry would see a new stadium being built of industrial land no longer in use, are you saying that all those sites will now be...

Where did Coventry City Council state they would not allow another stadium in Coventry? They can't turn down a planning application without a valid reason and 'we don't like SISU' is not a valid reason. Even if CCC did turn it down the appeal process would take it out of the hands of CCC. Why...

What's the actual law here, is it just an outright if someone is unarmed you can't shoot them or is it more complex than that. Do they take into account things like the police feeling they are in imminent danger, police having reason to belive someone is armed? At the end of the day I'm not...

Found this online: EIR is the term for allowed exceptions. They could make an exception for commercial sensitivity but that would have to relate to specific points and they would have to justify when that exemption applies and why it isn't in the public interest to release the information...

I get that it's only a few minutes away from the Ricoh but for me the motorway is the point at which I would consider no longer being in the city, not sure how many others will think the same but there's no way I would class that as being in Coventry. Anyway if they can't get planning...

How do you know if they've done something if it's behind the scenes? So far we've had them produce an artists impression which looked incredibly similar to the artists impression produced by the same person for Brentford just with blue seats instead of red. The chap who did it said in the CT it...

Not sure there's that much too it. Trust we're being questioned on why they hadn't released the results, they said they were waiting for one response people said publish what you've got. Once the Trust issued a press release the CT might as well release their story or they have no story - it...

Think the Trust need to pressure N&B council. Found this on gov.uk: You should receive the information within 20 working days. If the organisation needs more time, they will contact you and tell you when you can expect the information. Some sensitive information might not be available to...

Hard to say for sure until it happens, which it won't, but my current feeling is that if we move to the other side of the motorway we're no longer a Coventry team. If we were moving because it was essential and there were no other options maybe I could accept it but that's not the case.

Where is the city boundary? Wouldn't that site be so close to the city that CCC would be involved due to traffic flow, potential infrastructure changes etc?

You're more trusting than me! I won't believe it until it's built and we're playing there. To be honest I thought they would have purchased a piece of land by now. That's relatively easy to do and is unlikely to go down significantly in value. Thought it would be an easy way for them to try and...
