    Acl to comment on Ricoh arena position

    So we can safely say that Michael had no such permission to offer a rental deal to SISU.

    Christie set to sign for Derby

    He's only ever going to make it as a winger... not a defender.

    JR Decision Appeal ?

    I can't understand why they are appealing... they lost and are never going to bloody win it. Give it up for fucks sake and concentrate on more pressing matters,

    Well said Richard Keogh - respect

    Yes I do. A year deal to start at whatever value (maybe sixfields rent value) with full matchday revenue. Gives both parties more revenue but long term the club has to secure ACL as part of it's business.

    Sorry let me clarify... when I say dissolve I mean buy out ACL and shut it down. Take on their lease deal direct with council.

    Somewhere around 200K for league 1, and more/less dependent on promotion and relegation. If we were in the PL somewhere in the region of 750K to a 1m is about right IMO. Irrespective of that all matchday revenue has to go to the football club. It's a nonsense to have it any other way. The club...

    1. Maybe the net difference between the two doesn't amount to that much, but having the revenue streams to put in the 'revenue' column in the first place as opposed to just the 'outgoings' column may have something to do with it. 2. As I have said before - If the club had all matchday revenue...

    Well said Richard Keogh - respect

    I'm not sure how that is relevant really.. most clubs are selling clubs when a club from a higher league comes to take your best players. I'm not saying to exclude it from a business model, but frankly you seem happy to ignore the fact the rental value as a proportion of the revenue the club...

    Well said Richard Keogh - respect

    Can only imagine because they got zero matchday revenue as before. Although there is a saving on rent - if you sign up to that deal you are just recreating the same problem as before. No other revenue streams = more equity injection. The club is not going to get itself to be self sufficient...

    Well said Richard Keogh - respect

    But when you rely on player sales as the vast majority of your income we are never going to build a successful team. If the club had to have a 22K attendance for every game just to not make a loss on matchday then you can see so much of what is wrong... and it's not just the rent... but also...

    Well said Richard Keogh - respect

    Fine... no reason for you to mention the 'rental deals' and everything else.. we've discussed it a million times previously. Maybe we'll be able to stop hearing the 'SISU batter people in court' tagline as that must have been used at least 5 million times.

    10% of ACL's turnover.... not 10% of the club's total revenue though was it? What was the break even figure for the club on the deal 22K a game?

    Well said Richard Keogh - respect

    And these 'rental' deals haven't. You don't want to discuss the rejected CVA becuase you know there isn't a single justified reason to this day for it to have happened.

    Well said Richard Keogh - respect

    Essentially strangling the life out the home town football club... all long before any of us had even heard of SISU.

    Well said Richard Keogh - respect

    At least one deal was offered to the administrator, in the full knowledge that the club couldn't accept it. Secondly.. if everything was to 'keep Coventry City in Coventry' then why the CVA rejection? Had that not occurred I believe we would have been back some time ago.

    Well said Richard Keogh - respect

    SISU's actions in regards to their rental dispute with ACL and ensuing legal battles have been rightly criticised, and have been very destructive. However to suggest that the council and ACL haven't in other ways contributed to our precarious position is quite frankly nonsense.

    I'm Seriously Annoyed

    I don't think anyone is actively supporting SISU, but there is balance to be found between those who don't really care about the fans (SISU) and those that pretend that they care about the club and the fans - but actually don't care either (Council and ACL) Evidently - in this whole scenario...

    I'm Seriously Annoyed

    Maybe you can't lump them in with other owners, and when you look at their actions it's clear that their strategy is utter bollocks. They clearly went for a quick buck return and fucked it up spectacularly. Their only chance of ever getting anywhere near a return is to invest in the football...

    I'm Seriously Annoyed

    Every owners goal is money and some form of return. It's not and will never be an objective exclusive to SISU. If the club has borrowed money then it goes somewhere.. mostly to fund the losses because the club can't stand on it's own two feet. If this situation had been dealt with properly back...

    Wilson Money to be Reinvested

    Without going over old news there is a distinct difference between saying that liquidation could be a possibility to saying 'I am going to liquidate the football club' as a direct threat. It's interesting that is a matter of record but the lawful spending of £14m of taxpayers money couldn't even...
