The club want you all to remove the bricks. How else are they going to start building their new stadium?

You know what I would dearly love to see? A list of all the sites they have previously identified but fell through. Can we see that list please? :whistle:

Lol. Didn't quite say that though. My whole standpoint is that I think the new ground is a fantasy anyway. If it were announced I would see where it is to be. If it was to be close to Coventry I wouldn't have a problem with that. I still wouldn't believe it would be happening though. In fact I...

I usually do. Don't feel it correct or necessary to speak on behalf of thousands of other supporters.

Ex bloody actly.

Totally agree. What we have got is a rental agreement. If that means us hanging around the lower reaches of League 2 then so be it. I would much rather that than us playing in say Nuneaton or Rugby. A Coventry team playing in Coventry has to be the very essence of what we want as football...

Maybe it's me, but I can't see any hope in building a project that is just going to alienate quite a few more City fans and have them probably leave the club behind forever. I know I am being cynical, but I still simply do not believe a word of it. It makes no sense to me at all. This is Sisu...

No, it doesn't make sense. You will be looking at 5-6 years, increased financial burden and very little hope of it being what we would all want it to be. With the increased debt and time involved I wouldn't be surprised to see us in the lower reaches of League 2 by then and playing to less than...

So they have announced the location for the new stadium then?

That's exactly where I am. Don't buy into this 'having to be within the city boundaries or I won't go.' To me that is just a nonsense. A couple of miles or so wouldn't bother me, but if it were much closer to another town that would be where I have a big problem.

It's not about the city centre. Not for me anyway. But if we are in Nuneaton, or Rugby, or Leamington or Warwick, then it will no longer feel like Coventry City FC for me. I'm not bothered with just outside. I am extremely bothered if it is another town or much nearer to another town than it is...

That is simply untrue and you surely know that.

No I agree. That wouldn't bother me. I'm not one of these boundary people, I am talking if it in terms of being several miles away. That is likely I would have thought.

But Torch, you don't live in Coventry do you. Completely different kettle of fish. I was born here and have lived and stayed here my whole life. The impact on City moving away will have a much bigger effect on me than it will on you I would imagine If I lived in say Leamington or Warwick or...

Each and every to their own, but if we move 8 or 9 miles away we are in someone elses town.

I agree. Don't know how everyone else feels, but I have always gone up and will continue to go up the Ricoh if we get relegated and then get relegated again and keep losing every week. We move 8 or 9 miles away though and I will stop going, win lose or draw. I'm sure there are many, many City...

I think we need to really try and get the best rent deal going so staying at the Ricoh can work, with a partnership to maybe be in the offering further down the line. Instead of trying to raise £20m to build a new stadium out in the sticks, why don't we try and raise the money to buy a half...

Mutton on Mondays. Tonight is steak night! Let's hope they all get burned at it.

Idiots! Sisu took us away from our Coventry home and now we're back here it seems like CCC may have forced us back out again. Sisu have been a joke and our council has just done the dirty on us. Good job everything is well and dandy on the pitch isn't it.

I still think building a new stadium is a madness, so where does that leave us? Somewhere between a rock and a hard place I guess. As you say, we are in a very bad place as it is. Taking us down a route of adding to the debt by 10's of millions is surely a fruitless excerise. If we were to...
