A quango can be a limited company as well. For example, Capital for Enterprise Limited and British Nuclear Fuels Limited (cut under ConDem government). Councils should not run football clubs and should only offer financial support if the pros outweighed the cons and it was the last resort.

Quango - 'a quasi nongovernmental organization; an organization that is financed by the government yet acts independently of the government.' ACL was just bailed out by the CCC for 14m, and is 50% owned by the CCC.

It wouldn't happen, it would not be allowed to happen by the people of Coventry, I don't want me (future) taxes being wasted on CCFC when there's so much to do with regards to the city. ACL wouldn't exactly want to take over CCFC anyway, so again, it is a flawed question. Loaning money is...

What do the council do to make CCFC games happen? It's CCFC who pay for the match day costs to make the games go ahead (if I'm wrong, anyone correct me, but I'm guessing this is what we pay the 10-oddk in match day costs for?) so we should reap the fruits of our own labour? It's also CCFC fans...

They wouldn't ever own the club so it is a flawed question. But, I would also be very unhappy if the local authority came to own the club, because they'd be ploughing money into the club on keeping the club, paying greedy players + their agents and transfers fees etc. I'd be disgusted to be...

I have not been 'duped' by SISU spin doctors, I have said on many occasions, 'both are bad guys here' and I have also acknowledged that SISU haven't gone about this the right way, however, I feel strongly about the rent, I feel it is a rip-off, you feel differently, but that's how I feel. SISU...

Says it all really, even opposition fans (Donny, who have been there done it) are on the 'enemies' side as well. For me, it is only CCFC v ACL and many CCFC 'supporters' have essentially deserted the club they 'support', all because of an all-consuming hatred of SISU, and I could almost...

We sold the right for F+B revenue streams for any event held at the RICOH, including CCFC games, I get that, but I think it is perfectly reasonable and acceptable if that is revised, I'm not saying we should get all of the revenue off concerts, Olympics or Rugby games, but I'm saying we should...

Did he make it out alive? :laugh: Only joking people!

Yes I do, only for CCFC games, though, not a slice of concerts or anything like that, that's what we sold as well, the club deserve the revenue our fellow fans raise at CCFC games, no CCFC, no revenue on match day, is it fair for ACL to leech in this sense? Also, the club need that 100-200k in...

Well it is evidence, actually, because if ACL thought it was reasonable, they wouldn't negotiate it would they? I wouldn't negotiate a price if I thought it was fair, take or leave it would be my stance. CCFC have agreed on 400k P/A so your point here is, pointless, they'd want to know what...

For starters, how can anyone assume what concessions have been made, since no one here has sat in on these negotiations. I'll give you an example, 400k agreed rent, Fisher, Joy and co. hinted they wanted the league average (150/213k) and I'm guessing ACL wanted to keep the rent as high as...

Knowing our luck, it'll be Black, and I don't think Black is on the short list

Your argument was flawed from the second ACL offered a 50% reduction, yet you still defend your untenable position. Since you compare SISU to the Nazis, how about I make this comparison: You're like a holocaust denier defending their position when it is quite clear the holocaust happened...

Should we at least make the revenue streams our fans generate at CCFC games? Yes, 100-200k would make a difference, with the 808k reduction.

Who is CJ_covblaze?

Fucking hell! He said in one post: "THE RENT IS FAIR" (or 1.28m IS FAIR) about 5 times!

A lot of people are looking like right tools! :laugh:

I know, sigh. I've done well so far with so little keeping me going, apart from Man U away... Erm... Nothing?

Question: how much rent did Leicester Coty have to pay in rent for your ground a year?
