    An interesting find

    Someone may correct me on this, but the terms of the loan from CCC provided an enhanced interest to be paid back to them over 20 years, which the council mean't a better return than money in reserve accounts at the bank. However, I thought that Wasps did a quick "double cross" and issued the...

    SISU Statement - Article From Sky Sports

    I'm getting ahead of the process and being optimistic! Assuming that an agreement is reached for the club to build an alternative stadium. Are SISU going to have the resources to fund it & at what recharge to the club, as I'm pretty sure the stadium would not be owned by the club?

    SISU Statement - Article From Sky Sports

    Interesting perspective from Joy Seppala. When she asks to build a stadium in the city on "reasonable terms" from CCC......is she asking for "State aid"? I thought that was one of the legal cases they pursued.

    New keeper?

    I have reservations regarding Lee's performances, but if we don't stop the negative comments his performances will only get worse......and I know some of you will state that would be impossible! However, we are SUPPORTERS ......can we stick to the remit? Whilst he's wearing a CCFC player I'll...

    CWR

    I was perplexed by the substitutions. However, if MR felt the atmosphere was negative, then my thoughts are that he might have made the assessment that he didn't want these talented youngsters exposed to that.

    Whiff of Desperation, something happening?

    Exactly - how do you become a millionaire? Start off as a Billionaire and buy a football club!

    Whiff of Desperation, something happening?

    I have a concern that if Wasps do backdown on doing a deal with our club that the terms would be so punitive we couldn't possibly accept. Hence, Wasps would be able to say, we offered the club deal and they refused it!

    Player of the Season - early contenders?

    Willis has been my player of the season. His speed in the centre of our defence has been a critical factor

    Do wasps need CCFC?

    A long term deal for CCFC to remain at the Ricoh could be worth a lot more than the match day rental fee, etc. For example: The naming rights for the stadium is bound to be worth significantly more!

    Will they have to re-open the agreement or will a legally binding statement backed by the Attorney General do? Sounds like a Brexit fudge? lol

    Is this Coventry's version of the Backstop? We may need the Attorney General to give his legal opinion. lol

    If Jeremy Wrights involved don't expect any positive outcome - he'll abstain just like he did on HS2, so he can protect his cabinet career.

    Cwr this morning

    I can understand that Eastwood was never going to backtrack on Wasps stated position regarding negotiation a new agreement on CWR. The potential of a 50% share in the Ricoh is a very attractive proposition for both Wasps and CCFC, as it cuts overheads and has the potential to increase revenue...

    sbs&l group accounts 2018

    Really appreciate your analysis OSB of the accounts. I have a question regarding the value of the club as an ongoing trading entity to SISU. My question relates to the rate of interest that the SISU charge to it's companies and despite the fact they do not receive any repayment of the accrued...

    Whiff of Desperation, something happening?

    My understanding is that the timelines for the next hearing for SISU will be after the EFL decision on whether we remain in the league. I can't envisage SISU dropping the case, so the variables on outcomes will include: a] CCFC expelled b] CCFC voted by EFL members to remain in the league, but...

    now it’s becoming a reality moving from the ricoh - Letter from EFL to CCFC

    This is crunch time and the ball is in SISU's court. Whether we continue to have a football club will possibly depend on the value of the training ground against continued trading. I hope they decide to drop the court case and not realise the value of the training ground through a liquidation...

    Is this whole thing a Haskell Mk2?

    I think we are all in danger of seeing conspiracies in every corner. There’s no criticism of the potential scenario being painted here, but I doubt there is anything in it. . I just think Wasps are emboldened by the windfall cash they’re receiving & are pissed off with our owners. So think they...

    Highfield Road 2

    You are right that Boddy seems to have improved relationships with potential stakeholders, which is to his credit. However, we've constantly been fed the line that "it's not the club" that is taking this action, but the overarching company. Therefore, any partner in working with CCFC has to take...

    Highfield Road 2

    There was legal action against the Alan Higgs Trust in the past and recently Wasps are cited. Additionally, at the end of our time at Northampton there was a threat of action, which was dropped after reaching agreement on exiting the clubs original agreement there. The bottom line is whether...
