I hope our new signings aren't being led to believe we'll be back at the Ricoh in the near future. If they are and it doesn't happen that could backfire and leave with a load of pissed off players who don't want to be here.

Don't think people should get two excited. We have one of these every year it will just be about the playing side of things not the Ricoh / SISU / CCC / Higgs / ACL or any other business stuff.

Look at the overall picture. It is hard to imagine Baker was told he was off at the end of last season as he's bought a house down here over the summer, if he was surplus to requirements would it not have been courteous to tell him before he did that? He then turns up for pre-season and gets...

If you don't need someone then that's fine but there's a right and a wrong way to go about moving people out of the club.

Sums up the state of English football pretty well.

Its getting worse and worse. Of course we always had the odd player going off to play for a top team when we were in the prem which was annoying but now its out of control. You've basically got the top handful of teams and then everyone else. It does make me wonder what success if for a club...

With IEC would the idea not be that amount ACLs % generates exceeds the amount they were generating when doing it themselves as cost prices etc go down? That's normally why you would make a deal like this. If that is the scenario then isn't IEC a bit of a non issue? For example lets say ACL...

Sometimes when you read articles like this you have to wonder if they are deliberately taking the piss. How can he say we're paying for the pitch with a straight face after banging on about how the cost of renting Sixfields was all inclusive.

But the fact that last seasons frees weren't great is exactly the point a lot of people are missing. A lot of people on here seem fine with losing Clarke, Wilson, Murphy etc as we will bring in more frees. If anyone says that is a risky plan it's all, this and that player were free and did well...

How do you know they all wanted to leave? Did the ones saying they wanted to say want to leave? Of course even if they did want to leave you would need to know why, maybe if they thought we would be back at the Ricoh and mounting a genuine promotion challenge they wouldn't be so keen to go...

We should be one of the best supported clubs in L1, obviously not at the moment due to our owners actions, and therefore be in a position financially to be challenging for promotion. It's not like people are going around saying we should spend crazy money to storm back into the PL. We should be...

This is what I find odd, players have left who have a decent track record and a lot of the players coming in have poor stats yet the majority don't seem concerned. Lots of comments about how good it is to cut the wage bill and not to worry as the players coming in might come good. Seems a risky...

One of the problems with the vote was that if you weren't attending you had to nominate a proxy, so if, like me, you didn't know anyone attending you couldn't vote. What's needed is a system that allows all members to vote when required as you're never going to get thousands to turn up to these...

We seem to have reached an odd point where there is very little objection to our players leaving. Its all well and good saying that players can come in and do just as well but not all transfers work out and you only need one not to work out and we have a weaker squad than last year and lets face...

Good stuff. Noticed they all say Coventry rather than Coventry area. Aren't these the kind of people SISU said were falling over themselves to try and get us moved to their area?

What's happening to Southampton makes me wonder what the point is in being a football supporter these days. Of course teams have always sold players, even the biggest teams, but Southampton have an owner who has said they will put more money in to get the club into the champions league but after...

When was it that all the contracts got changed? Didn't pay cuts happen then with it being moved to a lower basic salary and more performance related bonuses?

Based on just last season Daniels with 3. It's even worse if you look at our 2 seasons in L1 combined. Top scorers: Clarke 23 Wilson 22 Baker 19 Moussa 17 McGoldrick 16 Elliott 4 Fleck 4 Then your answer would be Fleck who last season managed 1 league goal.

He's scored 25 goals in 2 L1 seasons from Midfield, surely that has to be worth at least a token fee?

When they started down this road I remember posting that by now we should have seen them purchase land, full plans and a planning permission submission but that wouldn't mean the stadium was actually happening as that can all be done relatively quickly and easily and without chucking too much...
