    Coventry avoid squad crisis....

    Never thought I'd say this but I think I agree with Fisher and SISU on this, how can it be justified to pay out £1million in bonuses when we can't win a game and get relegated. That said it was under SISUs watch that all these contracts got given out. It looks like someone (Orange Ken?) didn't...

    Portsmouth- what on earth

    given the way we budget I would have assumed common sense would mean wages but everyone down here is talking about Appletons 'war chest' and how much certain players will cost in transfer fees. they're not even out of this administration and they're already planning to overspend again.

    Goal music

    i'd rather not have any but if we must have something then either the sky blue song or twist and shout rather than some random rubbish

    Portsmouth- what on earth

    at what point do the FL pull the plug? they've got a cup match Tuesday and their first league match Sunday and at the moment they have 2 registered players according to their website. they're still in admin and under an embargo the trust bid seems to lack the funds to get off the starting line...

    Rent

    You would assume this was covered by the terms of the contract. I can imagine CCFC get first say on dates as the main tenant. Think they would have a case for getting a rent reduction over the Olympic period due to the disruption if they were up to date with the rent but as we all know they...

    Portsmouth- what on earth

    Wouldn't be so sure, they have pretty much a full squad in training they just can't formalise the signings till the CVA goes through, for which the deadline was Friday. Once that goes through expect to see a lot of signings very quickly and worrying they have players training with them who have...

    Sky blue special

    think the biggest problem these days would be that different companies operate on different parts of the network but it's definitely something that would be worth the club looking into even if it wasn't for every match.

    Portsmouth- what on earth

    Unbelievably the local council has agreed to loan the supporters trust nearly £1.5m of taxpayers money, not happy at all that my council tax is going to be covering their overspending.

    sounds like husseys gone then...

    if he posted it this morning he could just mean the rest of the team have gone to Port Vale.

    Portsmouth- what on earth

    I can't work out how it is in any way acceptable to have a former owner be the person being lined up to take control again. Surely anyone who has had a hand in this mess shouldn't be let anywhere near the club? The council are due to have a meeting on Thursday to decide if they're going to lend...

    Sky Blue Player

    the footage is normally from the cameras from the FL show, not sure if it's done in house and then given to the BBC or the BBC do all the filming and give it to the club to use. I think for pre season they've got the website guy doing what he can so it's more a case of have this footage or none...

    Portsmouth- what on earth

    latest is that the council are considering loaning the supporters trust a few million to help them buy the club. while I like the idea of supporters owning their own club I'm not sure the council should be getting involved. it's one thing to have the sort of arrangement we have where the council...

    City Of Coventry Stadium

    fairplay to the people of coventry at least some of them have turned up unlike the other games! weird that they've covered the club crest yet are quite happy for people to have CCFC flags on display complete with sponsors logo!

    BBC Olympic mistakes thread

    they've just done an update from the Ricoh Arena on the News at 6, guess noone told the BBC the stadium name had changed.

    City Of Coventry Stadium

    I can kind of get the thing with sponsors although it is totally over the top but why does the club crest have to be covered up?

    All Cash Stadium!!!!!!!!!! About time

    so what do you do with the money still left on your card?

    Portsmouth- what on earth

    could be an error, could be that they've not paid the ticketing company or could be a sign that the administrator is winding things up but apparently all tickets (season tickets and match tickets) are no longer on sale.

    Portsmouth- what on earth

    Don't know for sure but the figure of £6m is being thrown around. At the moment that's supposed to go to one of the former owners under the last CVA but the theory is the PL, FL and PFA will get together and divert that money direct to the players. Of course while Pompey are making lots of...

    Portsmouth- what on earth

    if you read between the lines the issue with the players they're trying to offload isn't really that they won't move to another club on lower wages and more that Pompey don't want to pay the deferred wages. The players haven't been getting their full whack for a while and they want the balance...
