    FFP at a glance

    looks like they intend to close the loopholes. Hope so otherwise it's a waste of time. Surely a salary cap would have been easier to implement?

    Help sisu

    not sure how we can be working to rules that haven't yet been agreed and have no timescale for implementation!

    Carsley To play?

    on the radio he said he thought he club still held his registration but didn't seem to keen on playing but who knows given how thin the squad is.

    Palace Away

    there's 7 tickets left if you go on ccfc.co.uk but it only shows 1 block as on sale, sure we had at least 2 last year. Seem to remember there being plenty of space! If you can get through probably best to give them a ring or even try ringing Palace.

    Hoffman and backers meeting Sisu on Friday

    he's a fan why shouldn't he be there? i doubt he was going round telling anyone who would listen there was a meeting planned. more likely someone asked him (which is going to be most fans first question if they spot him anywhere) and he told the truth - that already puts him ahead of SISU!

    What does anyone think about getting Carsley back

    i would imagine he would want paying a lot more as a player than as U18s coach.

    Coventry City v Leicester City to be shown on telly..

    looks like it's not on TV, there's a radio stream from 5Live on the BBC website. Looks like the official site has moved from CWR to Mercia, it's so bad it's hard to listen to.

    Where do you come from?

    Coventry born and raised, move to Hatfield for Uni and now live in Pompey having lived in Cambridge, Ottawa and London. Would love to move back to Cov, or at least somewhere close enough I could get to more games, but the wife won't move!

    Coventry City v Leicester City to be shown on telly..

    Living in Pompey I don't have the time or money to attend as often as I'd like (good this year tho with Pompey, Saints, Brighton and Reading all nice and close) it doesn't half wind me up when I hear of 'fans' living in Cov who can't be bothered to go, especially when they phone up CWR to...

    Home tickets sold

    It wouldn't come as a big shock to anyone if they had forgotten to put the tickets on sale before today.

    If at 5pm on April 28th 2012....

    i would bite your hand off for that right now. given that we're not going to get promoted the whole aim of the season will be not going down and still being in business.

    A message to SISSU RAGE AND BONE LTD.

    that's perfect. I'd always thought, or should that be hoped, that the silver lining with SISU was that the business side of things was being sorted out and at least we're not in the mess we were with with past owners but looking now that doesn't seem to be the case. With the squad the most...

    A message to SISSU RAGE AND BONE LTD.

    out of interest can someone who understands the accounts give us a before and after SISU takeover summary. It's fair to say that we had more debt before from what I recall but were we losing so much a year? SISU seem to have got us £30m in the hole in pretty quick time compared to BR / GR /...

    Question to the SISU out brigade

    This gets said a lot but is it actually true? Didn't they just say if a deal didn't go through by a certain time they would go into admin, it didn't actually follow that they had to did it? I've always thought it was a tactic to push GR into accepting the deal when he wanted more than was being...

    Question to the SISU out brigade

    the fact that they don't want to use their own money (or rather that of their various funds) would surely set off alarm bells to anyone considering putting money in. I would love to see how they pitch investing in CCFC. "we're losing £6m a year, have no assets and don't want to put any of our...

    If We Can It Round And Break Even - Dulieu

    This is what's always concerned me, owning the stadium seems to be seen as a magic bullet to fix all our problems but as far as I can see there's a good chance we'd be worse off. Let's say we owned it 100% leasehold and freehold. There would be £1m less a year being paid out by CCFC but also £1m...

    Question to the SISU out brigade

    I'm not particularly SISU out so not really who you're aiming at but with or without investement I'd like clarity on what they would use the money for and the long term plan. To be honest if SISU has said at the end of last season that we wouldn't be signing anyone as we've got no money and need...
