Indeed, maybe someone who thinks we should be protesting against the council should attend a trust meeting and propose it. In fact I seems to recall Robs group appears immediately after all the other groups had called for unity just serving to further split the fan base rather than taking a...

I think the poster is probably referring to events organised by your group as you are saying all sides are responsible but seem to be targeting only one.

Would that not also rule out the Ricoh as they've played home games there as well.

Not sure that's entirely accurate, what about the youngsters with no transport or the less mobile. The club have not done a great job of making sure people who can't get there under their own steam have been taken care of this season.

What are you on about? Leicester Reserves, CCFC Ladies, charity games and two small cup finals have all afforded to be stage games at the Ricoh but a Cup Final put on by Birmingham FA can not? That's not spin that's factual. There's nothing to suggest increased costs (looking at the pics on the...

Have to agree, this seems totally one sided. Also think it would probably be better to have this after the elections, having it a couple of weeks before will make people think this is politicised what with Get Cov Back to the Ricoh running a candidate. May well put some people off from...

Wonder if there is more to this story than we're hearing? Was wasting some time on the CET site and there's a match report and pictures from the Coventry Telegraph Cup at the Ricoh, article also mentions the Coventry Charity Cup at the Ricoh the week before. Seems a touch odd that its...

The key for me is how much it was going to cost ACL. If it was going to cost them £10K then as much as they've lost the business you could argue its a good commercial decision. If it was going to cost them £1K then they've messed this up and lost out as a result.

Speaking of which that's all gone a bit quiet hasn't it, what happened to the promised manifesto?

I went to the charity game and I don't know when all this stuff about Joe being welcomed like some sort of God happened as I certainly didn't see it. I went for various reasons: I was in Cov visiting my family, Hucks was playing and he's one of my favourites and it was for charity. There was...

My understanding was the £400K figure was first mentioned by Fisher in one of his CWR appearances as an acceptable / average rent. When it was offered it was £400K + matchday costs at which point he said that wasn't really £400K as it needed to be that level inclusive of matchday which led to...

Are they the same or should they be the same? If they are all fixed costs and both offers cover exactly the same things as matchday costs then you could reasonably expect them to be the same. I'm sure ACL could make an affordability argument, if ticket prices suddenly shot up they could argue...

Would depend on what you were including as matchday costs. If you were comparing 2 deals where the matchday costs were covering the same items, and all those costs were fixed rate rather than variable according to attendance then yes you would expect matchday costs to stay the same. Of course...

For all we know the stewards were paid for by CCFC as it was a permanent deal with 25ish games per season. For a one off or occasional game isn't it more likely that staff are provided rather than the hirer having to provide their own staff. We don't know and that of course is the big problem...

Sure he must have a friend who lives in the city and can ask for him.

I'm don't think it was recent, think it was before the JR was started by SISU causing everyone to shut up.

Not really a question anyone is going to be able to answer is it? Why don't you ask your councillor? For all we know they've tried to and Higgs have said no!

If you have a dig around on here I think PWKH has mentioned it before when someone was claiming Ricoh would terminate their contract due to the club not being there.

Would you generally expect a company to release details like that as and when they happen? I would have though it being in the accounts was correct. Do other companies make a big deal of announcing it when a contract ends for any reason? The naming rights isn't a big secret, Ricoh extended to...

If Higgs had withdrawn their claim wouldn't it have needed SISU to also withdraw their claim?
