    "No player is bigger than the club"

    I'm referring to the amount of new posters that have appeared since all this nonsense got out of hand with SISU. Where have you been during other crises that have been affecting the club in recent times? Would have been nice to have your views then too?

    "No player is bigger than the club"

    Coming from such an avid supporter and fan who has posted just 4 times in this forum?

    Do not give up!

    Am I right in thinking that those posting such calls for aggressive action are the ones who have only recently been members of this forum?

    Cov Mad Article

    Nick runs a great forum for us all. Period. Now if Nick comes on here with his thoughts and opinions then that's exactly what they are, just like you and me. There is no equating it to an opinion of this forum. He does not do editorial. The opinions on here are from all of us as fans who love...

    Can anyone say something positive about Arvo/SISU?

    It's very difficult to answer this question more than you may think imo. When they took over with Ranson they had big hopes etc but that failed and they brought in people to correct it, especially in the aftermath of the crash of 2008. Unfortunately things got worse with very poor decision...

    The waiting game....

    The 150k rent has not been made to 'SISU' though has it? So ask ACL why not? As for 'ownership' of the Ricoh. I'm inclined to say never to this hedge Fund group in a million years. Now a long term assignable lease is a very different matter and should have been explored long ago. Again ask...

    Should Baker come back in?

    I think if you substitute Daniels on say 60 minutes he will be more down than if he did not play. baker is one of the best players at the club and captain. An arm around Daniels shoulder to say he did magnificent and go prepare for the next chance to prove it again will work much better...

    NEWSCoventry City: ACL call for administration to be re-run

    Based on that - both stinky deals and if taken screwed by a banker. familiar territory there then!

    Funds available for squad

    I guess that with the 80m odd they would get for premier league promotion they might offer the council a grand lump sum for the freehold? ha ha just a thought!

    If acl act on behalf of joint owners CCc/Alan Higgs

    I agree to some extent but should ACL go to the wall and the stadium be up for grabs lease hold there will be plenty of groups interested. Not just SISU. Big risk for SISU as a strategy. What stops Haskell from out bidding SISU? I think as time moves on the realisation that the only football...

    Which would you prefer next season: Championship football or back at Ricoh?

    Well it's a good hypothetical but surely the higher up the league chain you get the more money and potential you get making the other issues of stadium more likely to be resolved in the course of things? For example how many think that a deal at the Ricoh would be in place if we were in the...

    NEWSCoventry City: ACL call for administration to be re-run

    VOR you are inclined to believe in the power of a name and ranking position as a means to enhance your opinion and dismiss the opinion of any one on this forum that may be equally as capable or more so than a certain Mr Hoffman or Elliott? Hoffman may be a banker by trade but I would not trust...

    NEWSCoventry City: ACL call for administration to be re-run

    Manchester sky blue is correct. While the FL admit errors they also clearly state it has no effect on their judgement in the case and were fully compliant with their rules. In short ACL are clutching at straws in a great PR exercise that appears to make them less of an enemy and SISU more so...

    Sisu have been a total business failure

    I think they have done remarkably well since recognising that initially they did very poorly. How they have gone about trying to achieve more income streams for the football club (God forbid!) has been very aggressive and failed to date. I'd rather they left but for now I recognise we need to...

    Tomorrow is the start !!!

    All that matters is what the FL have said in their statement. What ACL or SISU has to say has no influence on what the FL have already determined. Case closed. Next. Or shall we actually start supporting the team for a change?
  16. Paxman II

    Consider this.

    There may be little evidence that they will actually build a new stadium at the moment apart from land sites being identified as we are all aware already. The point is what evidence do you have to the contrary?

    Tomorrow is the start !!!

    There is no well meaning intention here though is there? Like I said go back and read the original statement from the FL. This incessant pouring over every minor inflection in the hope it brings about some magical other solution is bordering on paranoia. Moan all you like, complain all you like...

    Tomorrow is the start !!!

    I suggest people go back and read the FL's original properly statement before calling for anything. Talk about clutching at straws.

    The time has come

    Because ACL want 10 years? ACL are the people with the keys. It's ACL who need to find a tenant and make an offer to one. I suppose that will need to be more than just an offer to rent their pitch? You seem to be under the illusion that the football club should make the first move? The onus is...

    The time has come

    How many times must this be denied before some on here finally get it? NO this offer was not made and the offer that you talk about was to the administrator who could not act on that in his remit. It also had a few very special clauses such as a 10 year tied agreement and no F&B etc. to name a...
