You sure you didn't just build the stadium but can't remember where you put it? :D

Yep, we can always pluck a few against the norm can't we. By pure logistics, it is harder to get to the Prem from League One than it is from the Championship as there is an extra division to move up from. Even with my poor education I worked that one out.

All I've heard consistently is that we are in a transfer embargo and won't be signing anyone for the foreseeable future.

Just saying if it was always their intention to buy half the stadium then the rewards come the higher up the leagues we are and they should have had a foresight to try and back the manager last season to try and ensure our Championship status. The Premier is the place to be and it's a lot...

True. They could have invested in players though couldn't they. A successful club brings in more revenue to an owner who has a part share in the stadium doesn't it. The higher up the leagues we are the more revenue. Make it to the Prem and the admission cost per game would rise.

Was a long shot I know. :D Thought did cross my mind though. Could Sisu have nicked Hoffman's investors? :whistle: Just taking punts now!!

We have. No wonder the club is run so inefficiently. All the Sky Blues' employees are on here all day posting rumours rather than doing their work.

Why would you keep harking on about Hoffman Otis? Because the headline in the paper on Thursday talked of a Chinese takeover, backed by Hoffman and a few 'insiders' on here confirmed that to be the case. That's probably why.

Go tell Scully!!!

That Sisu have received new investment from ..........................Hoffman's lot? :o Someone said the other day that they couldn't understand why Elliot was involved seemingly with Sisu's side, when he had always appeared to back Hoffman. As Sisu just represent investors, could these...

Find that incredible if true. Thought we all agreed that the whole stadium was never going to be on the cards.

They did indeed. But ever since then they have pleaded poverty and not mentioned it again. I think we all assumed we no longer had the money. If we had that money all along then that is a real pisser, because we weren't given as much as peanuts to strengthen the squad. They want half the...

See he's on the bench today. So dropped down two divisions and still not in a starting line-up.

Ohh, and another thing that no-one has appeared to mention. Sisu declared a new found transparency didn't they. Transparency with the fans! So how come us fans weren't told anything about this new turn of events that the club suddenly have money to buy half the arena and we had to find out...

And as i just said on another thread, Sisu have done nothing but plead poverty until this meeting on Thursday when all of a sudden they somehow incredibly have the money to buy half the stadium!

They've pleaded poverty until this meeting when they suddenly have the money to buy half the stadium! :facepalm:

Not so long ago that comments were coming out along the lines of 'over my dead body' in terms of Sisu getting their hands on even a small part of the stadium. Bottom line is that no-one seems to trust them. Them not paying the rent for 2 months and saying they want to buy half the stadium...

Yes, but Hoffman is a City supporter so I think that makes a big difference to a group of people who don't even seem to know anything about football at all. Okay, so Hoffman could still fook it all up, but you would have to believe that at least he has the City's best interests at heart as well...

In talks to buy half the arena isn't quite the same as 'Sisu to buy half the Ricoh' is it. Remember last time when they said they intended to buy the stadium?

How could Hoffman go in front of the council before talking to the owners of the club first?
