I'm not sure I would be comfortable with the trust trying to prevent people going to games. As much as I hate the situation we're in and would like rid of SISU (and ACL if possible) I support the 11 players on the pitch and it's not really their fault if they end up playing at another ground...

so it looks like SISU, ACL and SBT have all managed to piss off the administrator. sure that will help things. He says "I want to reiterate my position as Joint Administrator for Coventry City FC Limited" who's the other administrator then?

Plan A would be to move just outside the area the city council has control. Plan B would be to fight the council, they can't refuse permission based on the fact they've fallen out with SISU and it would eventually move higher up the chain than the council. I'm pretty sure while all that was...

you could always build a stadium next to a rail line and then wait for a station to be built :whistle:

Right then, rather than all the doom and gloom lets have some fun and get excited about our fantastic shiny new stadium ;) Assuming Timmy is serious where could it be? I've not lived in Cov since 1992 and pretty much the only place in the city I visit these days is the Ricoh so for those are you...

does make you think about 'I'm not going if we move out of Coventry' would a 2 min walk from the Ricoh really make that much difference???!!!

thanks for that. so if Timmy fancies buying up some of the industrial units next to the Rioch he could build a new ground and there would be nothing the council could do about it!

Is there a handy map somewhere showing exactly where the city of coventry ends? I assume this is also where the influence of the council over planning and such like ends as well.

would planning hold ups play into SISUs hands? they could go back to the FL claiming they're trying to move back but getting resistance at every point. What would the FL do then? I can see the 'you must move back within x number of years' being extended over and over again. why not call their...

the problem you have is you're not having to answer these questions in a court of law, you're dealing with the FL and they don't appear to have the teeth for any sort of confrontation with SISU. I can quite easily imagine a meeting between Fisher and the FL where he convinces them he is in the...

I'm starting to believe the same thing. On the one hand it does seem like a giant game of chicken between ACL and SISU that gets more out of hand by the day. I've always thought that SISU would eventually give up as I can't see any reason for them wanting to stay but increasingly I'm starting to...

I think we'd all prefer to lock everyone in a room until they come to an agreement and my gut feeling is that we will be at the Ricoh next season but I think ACL need to make the next move with regard to negotiation. Seems to me there is a total breakdown there and little chance of moving...

golden shares are actual physical thing, i only know as the Pompey Supporters Trust tweeted about received theirs back from the FL. That means even the physical thing is lost, someone is refusing to hand it over or the FL hold it. I would say the FL hold it as in any other scenario surely they...

The FL will just send you a 'we don't comment on individual case' type response. Is this not an area that the Trust could be useful? With the help of Supporters Direct they could apply a bit of pressure on the league to get their finger out and do something. It's one thing to knock back...

think you're right, especially if the FL have messed up somewhere along the line and allowed the players to become owned by a different company to that holding the golden share. easy solution in that scenario is to ensure the company owning the players ends up owning the share, removes any...

admin was never going to be a quick and easy solution. look at Pompey, they had a supposed football expert administrator put in at the request of HMRC yet were in admin over 12 months at a cost of more than a million and the day they were due to go to court after nearly a year of messing about...

it's a good point and the one thing I've never been able to work out. despite what some people seem to think noone on here who is handy with the figures has been able to find any evidence that SISU are actually making any money out of CCFC so why are they so desperate to hang onto it?

I think what we're getting to here is the difference between what is allowed under league rules and what is allowed by law. The league is a members club and they can make pretty much whatever rule they like. When ever there's been a threat of legal action from a member club to the league the...

I believe the court has the power to replace the administrator if they wish.

He is / was part of SISU, didn't he repalce Onye when he got the boot before Joy decided to run things personally?
