For me it's not the same thing. What we are talking about here is Nuneaton moving, most likely on a temporary basis, if promoted as their current ground is not up to league standard. They would be moving to the nearest ground that is league standard and it just so happens to be empty. In my...

Isn't she also part of the chamber of commerce? How much it impacts on her business is debatable. Her company already took a fair bit of stick online when they began sponsoring Sky Blues Player earlier this season after all other local companies had stopped dealing with the club. The bigger...

I'm afraid the more I hear about this group the more I doubt how truly independent it is. Certainly does not seem to be representative of the fan base. Shame that once again the chance to get people involved, no matter how futile the project or if you believe the ground is being built or not...

Interesting note on the new group in the latest SBT newsletter

What a joke, it's not really an increase is it as we've never seen any plans!

That's what I don't understand. It appears from what little we know about the JR that SISU will present an argument which, according to what Labovich has been stating, will show that SISU has been acting illegally!

In my opinion it is SISU's fault we are not playing at the Ricoh and as a result of that we have a huge drop in revenue which they should make up. If the revenue isn't high enough then there's a very simple solution to that problem. Not sure what you're suggesting with ACL's revenue, are you...

I'm pretty sure its the case that if the owner puts money is as equity (i.e.: not a loan) it can be counted.

It's a problem in Safari on iOS7 that apple are taking their time fixing. Any ad that's got a link to the app store automatically opens the store.

I believe it is.

I suspect the 'real' debt figure prior to admin was around £30m, then some old debt which had been kept on the books from the pre-SISU days (but not actually money they'd paid out) suddenly appeared and the figure shot up to £60m meaning they could happily write off £30m as part of the...

You also need to factor in at least 3 years (I'd say 5 as a minimum, more likley longer) of massively reduced income due to playing at Sixfields as well do it is going to be over £60m they need to sell it for. Of course any buyer has leverage, assuming the bowl at the Ricoh is still available...

Rotherham's 12K capacity stadium cost £20m to build plus cost of land, planning, legals etc so I would say you're looking at £30m as a minimum. There are no other facilities to sell on or lease to generate money. Potentially you could sell naming rights but I can't see them being worth a great...

Both Fisher (at the forums) and Labovich (on CWR) have been asked how it was going to be funded and they said they weren't able to answer as they didn't know yet but a mix of investment and borrowing. If they don't even know how they're going to pay for it there's no chance they know how they're...

You can only assume because if they gave a clear question the trust could give a clear answer and that doesn't fit in with ML's requirements. He just seems to be seeking to push blame onto as many other parties as he can with little or no evidence to back anything up. As you say if they have a...

Do we actually know for a fact WS are engaged purely to deal with the CCFC / SISU situation? Do ACL have a seperate PR company who deal with their general PR?

Didn't they go to court after the initial application for a JR has been rejected and ask for access to council and / or ACL documents. To me that implies they don't have all the information and they're hoping something will turn up when it all gets investigated. If you had all the evidence you...

If ACL went into admin isn't it probable that the lease reverts to CCC?

I never remember it being an issue. We were told where it was going to be and shown plans well in advance and I don't recall any great outcry about the seat colour being wrong or anything like that. Are there things that could be improved at the Ricoh? Of course there is but I don't think...

You're confusing 2 different things. Duffer mentioned about outdoor shows which the first comment is related to. Anyone looking to put on a stadium show would most likely pick the Ricoh, as a stadium with a good track record in putting on shows, above a new stadium away from a major city. The...
