Ah, but there's no time is there? The deal at the Ricoh is a temporary deal, so I would think it doesn't really change the 3-5 year time limit set by the FL to find the future solution. If the council and Higgs won't sell ACL I suppose the club will have to build a new stadium. How long till the...

The agreement leaves both sides in much stronger financial positions. The club has a significant reduced cost base (including lower player wages) and ACL has a better mortgage deal. If nothing else both the club and ACL now stand on much improved financial foundations and both could be...

A Finnish article? How damaging can that be to sisu who have a small office in the UK and do their business through the Caymans? I just wonder. Having said that - sisu could well be leaving. Remember the long term debts suddenly turned short term? Expiring in December. But who do you think...

Yep, so predictable. July 15th re possible return:

I actually think involving the academy boys is a great idea. They will feel what it's like to be seen/watched by 20.000 and they will hopefully dream of sometime become one of the players on the pitch.

Excellent post.

Well, it's hardly a fortress ... yet.

Thing is we have never held a great record at the Ricoh. In no season playing there have we ranked better than 15th overall. That has to change! http://www.statto.com/football/teams/coventry-city/2014-2015

Owning the stadium - bricks and mortar - doesn't make sense to me. The club should own ACL and so next step is to negotiate the price for the shares.

Sorry to disappoint you, but we won't be in the playoffs. Hope you are though and that you win it so we can go up together.

12.000-14.000 if the weather is fair.

There's one thing we haven't heard though .... a clear and unambiguous statement from either party that there are no negotiation.

Can I ask how old you are? I am 59 and share your feelings about anything and everything going digital and into 'apps'. But today children are born with a build-in smartphone and can do nothing without it. By 'upgrading' the stadium to include smartphone technology we can give the younger...

All I've heard of Fleetwood is Rumors.

Money from Wilson sale probably.

Yep. Happens to anybody proposing novel ideas. Already a few reply's to support that in this thread.

Probably. It's annoying and unsettling. Managers should have a transfer window like the players.

As the board represents the Trust, informing the board is informing the Trust.

Hmmm - I seem to recall you are a teacher, is that correct? If so, you know all about the principle of 'representative democracy'. And you probably even know Edmund Burke and his view of RD. Anyway, I do believe the meeting is about a return to the Ricoh. Maybe the Trust is simply being informed?

The board has been elected as representatives and as such they have been given mandate to act on behalf of the Trust members. They may not be in a position to reveal information at this point, but that is the nature of negotiations - they are kept private until concluded. Your post indicate you...
