    Question for PWKH, whats next for ACL & The Ricoh Arena?

    Why? It's a great stadium and should be a venue of which the citizens of Coventry can be proud. Just cos Coventry City aren't playing there at the moment it doesn't mean it can't be a great venue for the city. Besides if we want new owners and new investment then the Ricoh is key to all this...

    Baker, Clarke & Murphy Told To Go

    Yes, but as I said on the other thread, we may well have hung on to these players because we couldn't bring anyone else in. We would have been seriously short on numbers had they been allowed to leave and us not being able to bring players in. As soon as the embargo is lifted these players...

    Baker, Clarke & Murphy Told To Go

    Did hint at this on another thread. End of the embargo would signal a procession of players going the other way.

    The ball is now firmly with ACL and the Council

    Thing is, for all these business people (on both sides) purporting to be clever, the answer in so many ways, lies on the pitch! If Sisu accepted a £150,000 rent without any F&B revenue and no chance of any part ownership, but managed to put a winning side on the pitch we would regularly get...

    Agree. They have to act in the best interest of Coventry City football fans.

    We can rise again just like before

    How about Coventry Blitz? First 5 players could be the bomb squad.

    Only one or two signings at most when embargo lifted

    Christie I think for sure. Concerned that Baker and Clarke could be half inched too though. I'm sure if we could have brought players in others would have left.

    good takeaway in North cov

    Yep, saw the address. Just how far up the Longford Road is it though? Near Hackett's the funeral directors?

    good takeaway in North cov

    It's in Tesco's? :thinking about:

    Only one or two signings at most when embargo lifted

    No, you're missing my point. We've hung on to them because we can't afford to have them leave without replacing them. We're already down to the bare bones. As soon as we can bring one or two in you could well find at least 2 going in the opposite direction. Could well be players have only...

    good takeaway in North cov

    Never heard of it. Reviews look good though. Whereabouts on the Longford Road is it?

    Only one or two signings at most when embargo lifted

    Think one thing people are forgetting is the fact of some of our current players either maybe wanting to leave or are being pursued by other clubs, Baker, Christie and Leon Clarke to name but 3. Wouldn't surprise me in the slighest if gentleman's agreements had already been put in place and...

    So ACL had no option

    ACL charged an extortionate annual rental. Let's go with that for starters. It was ridiculously high whether Sisu originally agreed to it or not. They also said they would no longer negotiate with the club back in February I believe it was. Talks should have never ever stopped. If they really...

    So ACL had no option

    You're right, they don't. Both sides are culpable. There can be no doubt about that.

    So ACL had no option

    If only it was all so simple. Tim Fisher says the club really want to play at the Ricoh, yet Sisu take the club 34 miles away. Nothing is black and white and I think your post is disingenuous. I do believe Sisu want us to play in Coventry. I do believe that ACL want what is best for CCFC (to...

    Yeah, but I bet you first liked your missus when you met her too.

    Mark Labovitch

    Totally agree. His people person skills seem non existent. If we want to move on from this and find a solution, some of the figures involved in the meetings and PR media interviews need to stand down. They don't need to be sacked necessarily, just removed from the limelight.

    You'd be better off with the train or grab yourself a lift. I wouldn't try and get the buzz either.
