    New Coventry City FC stadium plan seems 'crazy', says football finance expert

    "Mr Wilson did say that owning a stadium would make the club more attractive to potential buyers" “The problems with the ground don’t make CCFC attractive." “They want to have a deal that includes a training ground, a stadium and this many players - but Coventry is much more complicated in...

    Pressley suing CCFC

    Didn't someone say that SP was offered another role? If that's was true could they argue his refusal of that position impacts on his rights to a termination payment? Anyway think this is being blown out of proportion. Imagine it will get sorted without the club being wound up!

    Anyone go to the Wasps game today?

    Not being used for a while will help but it will probably still cut up badly as they won't have been able to do much past patching it up. Was watching Reading the other day, who share with London Irish, and their pitch didn't look good either. Will wait and see what happens next season but I'm...

    CCFC Season Reviews

    Might be worth trying some of the people on this thread: http://www.skybluestalk.co.uk/threads/8987-Season-Reviews There must be someone with copies, if we can get each VHS transferred onto a DVD they'd be pretty easy to copy so even if it costs a few quid to do the initial transfer if a few...

    New Coventry City FC stadium plan seems 'crazy', says football finance expert

    However he says a reboot is possible in the event of relegation as the players will be out of contract. The same players will also be out of contract if we are not relegated. He also states a rental deal is viable in L1 but seems to imply this is not the case in the Championship which is...

    New Coventry City FC stadium plan seems 'crazy', says football finance expert

    Was going to say the same thing. As he's clearly seen full details of the business plan for both staying at the Ricoh and for building a new ground can we expect the CT to be publishing those details for us all to see? As unlikely as it may be it could be the case that the lease at a new stadium...

    Pressley suing CCFC

    Couple of jobs where he gets sacked after 6 months and he could be picked up 3 or 4 wages as a result of being bad at his job!

    Pressley suing CCFC

    Is there any other career where you get sacked for being useless at your job and get paid 18 months salary? I thought it was usual that even if you did get a payout you only got it until you were back in employment so unless nobody else will give him a job we shouldn't be on the hook for 18...

    cheap tickets now

    The problem is you need all clubs to change. If we were the only ones who did it our ticket revenues would most likely drop, we've seen before that halving the cost doesn't double the crowd, while everyone else's remained stable putting us further behind.

    Fleetwood Highlights

    I'm sure Fleetwood will have a word with the steward, you can't have them pushing players around. You know what some players are like, what happens if one retaliates?

    How was this goal disallowed?

    Goal for me. No raised foot or anything from Wilson. In fact Wilson was stood away from him and the keeper moved towards him! At the point the keeper kicked it Wilson was looking the other way. The only possible infringement would be preventing the goalkeeper from releasing the ball but clearly...

    Total Drivel From AT?

    There's certainly some odd stuff on there lately. Either that or it's always been like this and we've only just started noticing!

    Total Drivel From AT?

    Linnell kept banging on about Clive going for fish and chips after the game and a pier which it turned out he'd imagined as it didn't actually exist.

    Relegation "would not be the end of the world" for CCFC

    Also there's a huge flaw here isn't there. He says the advantage is to reboot as we won't have many players under contract. Surely we will have the same number of players under contract if we stay up so we could reboot with higher revenues.

    Relegation "would not be the end of the world" for CCFC

    I was hoping for a story about the finance issues surrounding relegation. Much better to focus on that than give everyone time to enjoy rare back to back wins. Seems this experts genius plan is to not worry about the fact pretty much our only revenue source is ticket money which will see...

    cheap tickets now

    Isn't there a maximum number of offers they're allowed to make in a season? Some weird FL rule I think and we're already at the limit. Although I might have just completely imagined that!

    Its an improvement to have a manager that sounds like he's actually watched the same game as everyone else!
