That's the danger isn't it, if this guy doesn't get elected it can be argued that the voting public have agreed with the stance CCC have taken and you actually end up doing more harm than good. Hopefully before long we will see a clear strategy as to how the groups aims can be achieved, do that...

Hopefully the Wolves fans will be in good spirits and there won't be any trouble as I don't see how they are going to keep them out of the home stands when you can pay on the gate. Why didn't they just give Wolves the stand that usually closed, there appears to be enough demand from them to...

So lets say player A is offered the same contract by us and, lets say, Sheffield United, they would consider both clubs to be in the same state and us being in the mess we're in and playing at Sixfields would have no influence on our ability to sign players? How often when signing players in...

Who would be your choice for leader of the council?

You don't seriously believe that there is no difference between trying to persuade a player to come at play for Coventry at the Ricoh to trying to persuade them to come and play at Sixfields?

Leon's going to be on the bench isn't he? What odds can you get on him coming on and scoring a late winner? Can't see anything but defeat today.

What a sorry state of affairs that next season we will (hopefully) be playing in L1, 35 miles from home at a 7.5K capacity stadium with only 1 stand open. That's going to be a tough sell to anyone we want to bring in over the summer.

The HOT exclusivity period expired July 2012 after which Judge Leggatt stated that all sides had no appetite for the deal, the administration process didn't start until March 2013.

The part blend is referring to is not really opinion, more a factual statement. What Sepalla has written clearly points the blame elsewhere as opposed to the judge who stated all sides, including SISU, had no appetite to complete the deal. if you look at what Sepalla has written she is saying...

Equally where is the evidence to support the idea that ACL rejected the CVA for anything other than valid business reasons?

This is a common problem statements coming out of the club / SISU have. They state as fact things pretty much everyone agrees aren't true. There is no need whatsoever for the club to own the stadium, in fact the FL stated at one point that the majority of clubs do not own their own stadium. What...

So what happens to the contracts in place with the casino, hotel, compass etc. Its not unencumbered if those contracts haven't been terminated and thats not going to happen without a financial outlay. In your calculation you also don't make any payment to CCC for their 50% share in ACL yet...

Absolutely correct, as anyone who runs their own business will know you run this risk of losing every penny you put in. Any half decent business owner or investor knows when to admit defeat and walk away rather than keep pouring money in with slim to no chance of a return.

Seems they can manage to protest about having to move seats, shame they can't put any effort into protesting about having to move to Northampton in the first place!

I can't watch this, I find Freeman with an American accent too distracting. Not that he's bad at it or anything just doesn't seem right.

That's exactly my concern and the only response you ever seem to get is we can't know for sure they will do that so that argument isn't valid. To me that just seems to be burying your head in the sand and hoping for the best. Why risk it when there's solutions that give the same outcome for the...

Sorry, typo, I meant unencumbered freehold. If you think this is achievable can you explain how? As I see it ACL has contracts with various other companies, all those contracts would have to be cancelled and compensation paid for the cancellation. ACL would then have to be wound up, as this is...

Indeed but if we're going to take them at their word on that then we may as well give up all hope of the club ever playing in Coventry again. The unencumbered lease is essentially impossible to achieve, my feeling is SISU know this and that is the reason they have requested it, I don't think...

Seeing as you're the only Coventry fan I've ever know who has access to all Robinsons accounts can you let us know the net figure from all his dealings with the club.

There was definitely charity matches at the Ricoh before we left. And of course there's the Ricoh Arena Community Space project which has been there since the very early days of the stadium.
