That is possibly the worst story that's been in the CT and that's saying something. To sum up Les Reid announces on twitter theres "New #CCFC story to come from me today" then claims "BREAKING: Coventry council bosses still want #CCFC back at Ricoh as tenants not owners, after 'talks'"...

Unless it's a story that all talks are off or that a deal has been done I'd rather there was nothing reported at all. You never know what little thing could cause an issue so unless it's 100% one way or the other better for everyone, including the press, to keep quiet.

Cost me £65 to get in, was bloody freezing as well.

He clearly had his back turned and was moving away from the free kick. if you're chap had just side footed it passed him, or wait to take the kick, rather than deliberately belting it at him there wouldn't have been an issue. Even the commentators on Sky, who were very one sided given that of...

It must have been something pretty off for Elvis to react like that, thought he was going to take a swing at him!

Goodman and Beagre are both former Bradford players!

I would guess he thought the ball was going to come through quicker and reach him in the box. Once he'd started charging out he was committed to it. Either that or his brain switched off for a minute!

Can't answer that unless you know the terms of the lease, could be they've signed something short term or with an easy out. Guess one giveaway could be how much it looks like they've spent on a refurb. If it's been done on the cheap it's more likley to be short term, if it looks like they're...

Lets be honest by 2025 we'll either be back playing at the Ricoh, have a new ground or most people will have given up. Can't take another 12 years of this!

This has the potential to be another ITV Digital doesn't it? Chap from Sky was saying BT bid more than twice Skys offers. Given that BT have a lot less subsribers (and that number will surely drop when the freebies stop) and some games, inc the final, are free how are they going to make their...

I was getting them but unsubscribed as they would just make me annoyed when they were trying to sell tickets / hospitality for Sixfields. Strangley I have started getting them from West Ham and Pompey and no matter how many times I unsubscribe they don't stop!

The 10 years is indeed a FL regulation which I think is why ACL proposed a 10 year rolling contract at £150Kpa. In theory had SISU accepted that they could have walked away when a new ground was ready and pay off the remainder of the contract. From a financial standpoint that would leave them a...

would be great to get to the third round and draw a big prem team at home just to see how SISU respond if there's a game that could sell out the Ricoh.

why are we still under an embargo if the accounts have been filed by Otium? FFP? Have to pay money owed to ACL? Have to wind up the old company? Does anyone actually know the reason?

Quotas and positive discrimination has never seemed to me a great way to solve the problem as the person in the job will always have 'you only got the job as you're asian / african etc'. Might be worth a call to them to see why it is this way, could be that they've had funding for the role which...

I get mails from Pompey and West Ham despite never having had dealings with either of them and repeatedly unsubscribing!

I don't think that password reminder has ever worked! Back when we had staff and you could phone someone up I had to ring them and get someone to reset my password and mail it out to me!

I assume you mean SISU and you're right they haven't but they keep claiming they need to take ownership of the freehold for the benefit of CCFC which is at best very doubtful but what PWKH's comment show is that even if they did have the freehold, as we've all suspected for a while, it brings no...

If you're using IE with the online shop, as I have to on my work PC, you will have an absolute nightmare - nothing works. Worth giving Firefox a try if you don't fancy going up to Lockhurst Lane.

This is where SISUs plan is doomed to failure. CCC can't let them have the freehold at below proper value which means SISU then can't sell it on at a profit or mortgage it for an amount greater than it has cost them to purchase. Coupled with the fact that the freehold brings no income I still...
