    Delays in enabling Coventry City to exit administration putting off Chinese investor

    Everything was in the same place before we went into administration, why didn't he bid then? It's really not complicated and if he can't understand it (which is possible seeing as he can't manage to send an email) then he's not really a prime candidate for taking over. All the companies (Ltd...

    ACL Submit high court papers on the cobblers

    As the football club is still in admin those potential buyers he's talking about haven't yet taken over and won't have done by the time the first match is scheduled for Sixfields. So how come tickets are already on sale and who's he made an agreement with for those early matches?

    ACL Submit high court papers on the cobblers

    Cardoza's defence to the letter ACL sent a few weeks ago was along the lines that he made a deal with Otium, potential new owners of CCFC and therefore nothing to do with the current lease or CCFC Ltd. Now it's clear we will still be in administration for the first 'home' games that statement is...

    ACL/CCC. Something to hide...?

    clearly everyone needs to move forward. if a deal can be agreed it's pointless proceeding with the JR, it's just another costly distraction and will lead to more falling out. just draw a line under the whole thing, get new people at the table on both sides and move forward. i would much rather...

    Breaking news about Rent Deal

    is the option to buy back the 50% Higgs own now off the table or is it that the council won't sell their 50% or the freehold?

    CVA Result

    Can't remember what PWKH said but won't the option to buy the Higgs share still be available if Ltd isn't liquidated?

    Otium and the Transfer Embargo

    good point, we know Ltd can't submit theirs due to administration but Otium and Holdings don't have that problem. You would have thought SISU would want to have everything ready to go ASAP.

    Owners & Directors test

    you are correct OSB. there was some questioning down in the this part of the world with some of the owners pompey had and the answer that came from the FL essentially it was that way as they could not afford to do any form of proper test or defend themselves in court if they turned anyone down...

    **Fisher stunned by new deal**

    If they stay at the Ricoh Fisher going would make sense. Even if he is not to blame at all (not that I believe that) then a new face at the table might help things. Might also make sense for the likes of PWKH to be removed from the front line, not saying he's done anything wrong or should get...

    Joy willing to meet with Ann Lucas

    Was she even scheduled to be at the meeting? If she was and hasn't shown up that's one thing. If Joy has just decided to turn up at and expect people to be there with no advance warning that's a totally different situation.

    An interesting comment re Byng and other possible investors

    This is the same Byng who said he had made a bid before then it turned out he hadn't, not an inspiring start! The problem with this idea is how much SISU are going to want. Lets say they get the stadium for next to nothing they then sell it at full market value to walk away with a huge profit...

    CVA not agreed

    For the police to get involved would require ACL, or anyone else for that matter, to present them with pretty clear evidence that the law is being broken. If a liquidator comes in, who I believe is independent, he would have a much greater level of access to information than the likes of ACL...

    New Brandon Arena

    it'll be great, forget the pie money they can make a fortune on Sky Blue binoculars so we can all see the pitch past the race track and greyhound track!

    Acl

    not sure what you're driving at here. on the mortgage to YB the payments were around £1.2m and ACL were meeting these and overpaying, even while CCFC were refusing to pay rent. The remortgage means they now have a lower interest rate and therefore lower base payments. It could well be the case...

    Acl

    it's gone on overpayments on the loan ACL took out to purchase the lease.

    Anyone got any info on this photo

    I have a feeling that while we ended up getting hammered by Saints (hammered, get it?) if we had beaten them and West Ham won they would have got 2nd not Southampton.

    Hyundai

    I've got an i20, it's decent enough. Not really a car person and it was a cheap option to get around. If you're driving around town you will struggle to get anywhere near the MPG they claim but I suspect that it true of all manufacturers.

    Here comes the crunch!

    where has it been shown that without the club ACL will run at a loss. You can't just deduct the clubs rent from headline figures and draw that as a conclusion that's far too simplistic. How do you know ACL haven't lost custom due to the stadium bowl being unavailable or organisations not wanting...

    Player Registrations

    some of those figures seem way off and don't seem to take into account how long contracts have to run. Does anyone really see us getting £450K for Murphy or £650K for Billy Edge?!
