That's the thing, ML is supposed to be in this job as he knows what he's doing yet he can't grasp basic facts that everyone else can. The guy is an absolute idiot.

So you are only allowed to have your say if you agree with them. What is the point of a Stadium Consultation Group if no one is allowed to have their own opinion? Glad we're spending time looking at these vital issues. This is frankly absolute bollocks. There's no way you're going to have a...

Does he even think before he opens his mouth? A certain London based hedge fund don't seem to have much understanding of football in Coventry (or now the lack of it they have caused) or the fanbase. He's not talking about lobbying in private meetings, he's talking about the general fanbase...

Everytime I hear Labovich speak or read something like this I have to seriously question if he is fit to be in the role. He seems absolutly delusional! The way he talks about Weber Shandwich they must be the most effective PR company in the world!

How much does a station actually cost? The station near my office is a strip on concrete either side, a bridge over the track and a ticket machine. No staff, no facilities, not a lot of anything. Can't have cost that much.

Isn't that the point? More hotels around the Ricoh would help in getting those events in. It may well be the case that you can split people over 20 hotels in the area and bus them in as Grendal says but doesn't that give an advantage to a venue that can say you don't have to do that, we have...

Problem is supporting City there is no smooth. I started going in 86 and of course it was great for a couple of seasons but since then we've pretty much always been struggling and going from bad to worse. Sure we got to see some great performances and some great players but overall we never...

No idea of actual figures but as an example lets say we had £10m in revenue last year but spent £15m so a loss of £5m. Now at Sixfields lets say we have £5m in revenue. If, as SISU said, they could cover the loss of revenue caused by the move to Sixfields I would expect them to put in the...

I would guess they want more hotels and it encourages more conference business. I went to an event in the middle of nowhere in New Jersey at a conference centre around the same size as the Ricoh, it was surrounded by hotels and they were all sold out. Maybe it's a chicken and egg situation, they...

SISU didn't term it cover losses did they? Didn't they actually say they could cover the loss in income caused by the move? That's a different thing and implies there will be zero impact on playing budget as SISU will make up any lost revenue. If SISU had said we need to fill Sixfields every...

Same here, at least my phone bill has gone down! My Dad doesn't even ask me what's going on and if I bring up the City I can tell he's got no interest anymore.

Been going to games since 1986 and was a season ticket holder from 89 until I moved away for uni. When I did move away my Dad posted me the Pink every week and I'd go to as many games as I could afford. Being a supporter used to take up a lot of my time. The first thing I'd do every morning...

I certainly think you can make the case to lay blame with SISU for the small squad size this year. At the start of the season we were told it was SP choice to have a small squad which some doubted was true but I can't imagine for a minute he was thinking it was OK to have so few forwards we'd be...

They should have a pre qualifiers tournament for the lower teams and keep the number in qualification down. They could do it over the summer as those teams won't be in the world cup. Just makes the qualification process drawn out and uninteresting. When do the actual fixtures get announced...

That's all well and good but we were handed full match day revenues and 50% of a management company (operating a £113m complex as opposed to Swansea's £27m stadium). We then sold the that 50% on and didn't ever bother to buy that share back! We all know the rent was too high but we are told...

When did the seats get put in? I don't ever remember it being standing so I'm guessing it was before 1986.

What are the dimensions of a speedway track, would it fit in the pitch area without having to move any seats or people being sat miles from the track? It's not a terrible idea really. ACL can't just sit around waiting for SISU to get their act together. If the speedway needs a new home and it's...

How many season ticket holders do with have this year? If a chunck of them decide not to bother next year it could spiral. It looks bad enough now but imagine less than 1000 in the ground. There has to be a chance of that happened at some point next season.

What would be your breaking point? 3 years in Northampton, extension to 5, more than 5?

Luton are bringing thousands aren't they. Given what they've been through I'm sure we could get a lot of their fans to sign.
