    Are there any Cov fans in the ground? Everytime they want a shot of our fans they cut to a camera on the hill!

    Like how they opened with turbulent time for Blades fans. Cos everything has been going so smoothly for us!

    MK Dons Tickets 30/10/13

    Well actually I'm not going to MK Dons so you've got that wrong for a start but it's for people to make their own minds up what they do. I've never called anyone a scab for going to Northampton and I never will, don't personally feel I should go and I didn't go to MK last year and won't this...

    Bottling plan A not rent is the real issue

    What we don't know is how many players chose to run down their contracts as they perceived their to be a lack of ambition from the owners. The tipping point was probably when they sold Dann and Fox. If I was a player then that would have signaled to me that any aim of investing, and by investing...

    MK Dons Tickets 30/10/13

    I can see peoples point but let's face it there's zero chance of MK Dons moving back to Wimbledon and the Wimbledon fans have moved on and started a new club. We still hold out hope that we'll move back to Coventry and those actively boycotting / supporting NOPM believe they are applying...

    NTFC Official Statement re:ACL

    My guess would be two possible reasons for initiating this from ACLs point of view. Firstly the hope that Cardoza would get worried and back out of the deal, forcing SISU back to the Ricoh or possibly that by doing this they removed the possibility of Cardoza being able to claim no knowledge of...

    NTFC Official Statement re:ACL

    Did he really come out with this? Unbelievable. No wonder he gets on with Fisher if this is the way he thinks. Maybe we should all sue him for the stress and upset he's caused us.

    NTFC Official Statement re:ACL

    This never got any further than ACL firing off a letter to them did it? Presumably that was done so that if legal action was taken Cardoza couldn't claim ignorance of the situation. How much in costs can there be for receiving a letter?

    Wolves tickets

    is there actually a reason for there only being 2,500? Seems odd not to give us more if they can't sell out.

    The heat rises as the sun goes down on SISU?

    What they need to buy is ACL not the stadium. The new stadium is going to cost £40m so why not offer Higgs £10m for their share (which is roughly what the buyback formula valued it at I believe), pay off the £14m loan and offer the council £16m for their share. For the same cost as a new basic...

    The heat rises as the sun goes down on SISU?

    It's odd that the only tenant that seems to have a problem with ACL is SISU. All the other users of the Ricoh don't seem to have a problem. If SISU do want ownership and are willing to pay market rate how about this for a solution. Proceed with the purchase of the Higgs 50% of ACL that a HoT...

    The heat rises as the sun goes down on SISU?

    I've yet to see anyone give a buisness case for CCFC needing to own the stadium. I've asked for one several times but no one can come up with anything so if you know of one feel free to share it.

    Sky Blues companies behind with filing accounts

    There's no reason at all for Otium to have not filed accounts, they company has never done anything! Decent account could get those submitted in a very short space of time.

    Why is CT quoting Byng?

    I can certainly see how there would be a loss to the local economy but I'd love to see how he's arrived at those figures as they seem very high. Of course also assumes that noone who would have been at the Rioch is doing anything else and we're all just sat at home twiddling our thumbs.

    The heat rises as the sun goes down on SISU?

    How do you know ACL are running at a loss? Even if they are running at a loss what evidence is there that CCC are putting money in to ACL at the expense of the taxpayer? As far as I'm aware the only finance that has been provided by CCC is the loan which was drawn from central funds, while...

    A Blue Ribbon Event

    it does seem a bit odd that given everything that's going on at the club the thing that has the manager and players fuming is a bit of blue ribbon!

    Stadium plans

    Wasn't the old Peugeot site ruled out as they'd had some sort of funding that restricted the type of development or have I got that mixed up with somewhere else? This doesn't make sense to me, if they've had plans made why not show them to us? It's still a long way from actually building the...

    new club shop to be opened

    spot on, look how far we've fallen that having a place to buy tickets and merchandise is even news let alone something we should be congratulating SISU on. can't picture the size of the store in my head but those shops are quite big aren't they? wonder what they're going to use it all for, if...

    new club shop to be opened

    Not really I would have said a sensible location was somewhere like the city centre. Sure they used to have a shop there. Whatever happened to the plan to sell tickets all over the city using the pay points, that was a great idea but never seem to be mentioned after the first time they came out...

    new club shop to be opened

    If it's taken them since June to find an empty shop in Cov and this is the best location they could come up with it doesn't inspire me with confidence about the new ground.
