Agree with that. This is a very decent gesture though and should be taken on face value. If Sisu still want to move it gives them a whole year to look for another ground.

Turning this on it's head slightly, isn't this a great opportunity for Sisu to stay at the Ricoh and then try and get this Byng consortium onboard in a joint venture with a promise for the new owners to take full control and Sisu to back down at a later date? Just thinking new investment could...

They can't say no. Surely not. That would really cause a revolt amongst supporters!

The Directors of Arena Coventry Limited have been deeply concerned with how the emotions of Coventry City Football Club supporters have been tested over recent months and more especially the past few weeks. These concerns were discussed in great detail at an ACL Board Meeting on 7...

It helps Sisu too, because it would give them plenty of time to arrange a groundshare for next season.

And you can't say fairer than that. Those nasty, nasty ACL boys!! :pointlaugh:

We shouldn't be excited. Would rather new owners entirely came in. But if it was a choice between ACL with remaining in Coventry against Sisu and leaving Coventry then it has to be a no brainer doesn't it? And as others have said, it would only be ACL for them then to sell on to someone else...

No Sisu/ACL bias here, but the bottom line is between these two parties that we are faced with;. 1. Sisu owning us, taking us away from the city for at least 3 years on the promise of a new stadium or 2. ACL owning us and us staying in Coventry at the Ricoh, bringing the ownership together.

Depends which side you're on. It's fine if you're on the right side.

Feel the same. I haven't been anti-Sisu, but listening to Fisher on these forums has made me like him an awful lot less and he is there to represent Sisu and their interests. If he was there to pacify and appease fans and try and get them onboard and gain their confidence, then it totally...

Temporary? 3 years minimum. Possibly a lot longer. Anything but a smart move any rational person would surely say.

Your best bet is to move away from your customers? You sure about that? :thinking about::thinking about:

And you also learn in business that your customers are your greatest asset. Without customers you have no business.

Yep, I know it is in Rugby. Still one road in and one road out and it's already busy. And picture this, Tim Fisher said they will build a ground that can be expanded down the line should we get to the Premier. So it's not only a 12,000-15,000 seater stadium we are talking about here, but...

Brandon is a ridiculous notion. No way planning permission would be given. 1 road in, 1 road out. Total gridlock. Objections will be put in and will surely be upheld.

Agree. He's only half right. I will follow the City whoever is in charge. I won't however follow the club out of the city. Ridiculous to suggest people aren't real fans. I've been going up since the 1960's and have had season tickets pretty much every year for the past 40 years. Have followed...

Our version would be Nosher Nigel.

Then everyone can abuse each other about their stance on ex Coventry City player Carl Baker.

Maybe it wasn't on letterheaded paper.

Never buy a pie or drink? :thinking about: You're not Nigel the hunger striker by any chance are you?
