Interesting...I wonder how much was paid during the period when we couldn't afford to pay the rent !

12k per match when you get probably 12,000 extra fans per game at present is hardly bad going !!!!! Even I can do the sums there so I'm sure Tim can

Thought dagnall worked hard but lacked match sharpness, will hopefully get better. Maguire, well what can you say ! Unbelievable debut

Good shout. Especially against a team like Bradford

Not sure we need a big man (except against long ball merchants like bradford) I like the mix of the two centre halves but we have to remember he's still learning the role. Jordan Clarke was head and shoulders the best player against Walsall (regularly clearing up after Webster). One poor game...

Anyone bought tickets online recently, doesn't appear to allow you to at the moment ?

My point is the potentials there if there is success. As I said I could understand a 25000 seater but not the small stadiums being talked about. It all comes down to what vision the owners have for the club More importantly I think most of us believe a new stadium is extremely unlikely and...

I don't think many people would disagree with that size of stadium where we are right now but even last season we filled 32,000 so it can happen. 25000 I could possibly agree with but 12-18000 is an acceptance of where we will be for the next 5-10 years ! Grendels comments about charging the...

It depends on what your plans are and how successful you feel the club is likely to be (something which is at least in part is within the owners control) 12,000 is pathetically low and suggests they would be happy on us staying in league one or struggling in the championship. On current form...

Precisely. I've also mentioned this before. Any normal tenant would've been appreciative of this (unless they had ulterior motives !). The restructuring of the debt allowed the club to offer substantially lower rent to the club, I understand as low as £150k p.a for league one...still not enough...

Spot on Matt

I just find it amazing that people who have been involved in such dubious behaviour/practices have the audacity to take the council to court for undertaking an action that would actually benefit the club !!!!! As has been stated in court, the council had to step in because sisu stopped payin...

Hang on a second Nick, you're talking about people who reneged on a previous agreement with the council (which potentially could have bust acl and cost the council millions...probably the hope). The Ricoh was built for ccfc, the council and higgs bailed out the club when they couldn't afford to...

I don't know why but I always read your sisu sided arguments, however, surely you'll appreciate that people's arguments, negotiations, offers change over time depending on their position. The fact is there was/is no reason for sisu not to return to coventry except pure greed in trying to get the...

This is the crux of the matter, whether GH's offer was genuine or not and/or ACLs offer of £150k p.a for 10 years was put to the Administrator rather than the club, the fact is that if the club/SISU were interested in either they could have confirmed this. If ACL (or GH) then retracted the offer...

I think the concern is what SISU would do next ie keep the ground in a separate company, charge the club high rent, look to just sell it on at a profit etc etc. I'm sure there are terms that the council could put in place to stop some of the above but who knows (someone suggested just an...

Agreed. I wonder when the players started being registered in holdings ?!. Once again it just comes across that at some stage assets were being moved out of the entity that had the large unsecured creditor ie acl (moving assets beyond reach of creditors is illegal and for what it's worth the...

Out of contract but young enough for compo to be payable. Good young player. Will probably end up getting around 500k with some add ons next summer

Shmeee makes some very valid points. Yes acl were willing to try to negotiate a rent reduction, that doesn't mean they are not contractually entitled to the remaining part of the lease. By accepting the cva they would be walking away from this for 500k (and it would also have been an acceptance...

With people still accepting TF's word and talking about additional income streams being the real reason for the current circumstances, does anyone actually know what income would be generated from match day revenues ? I'm still not convinced its large enough to be going through this mess but I...
