As OSB explain here http://www.skybluestalk.co.uk/threads/15229-Financial-mechanics-at-CCFC Even a change of ownership could put us closer to the financial abyss.

No they didn't - have been rebuffing this so many times! They said they had secured funding till the end of the season - there's a difference you know! In your version funding would stop by the end of the season, in sisu's version funding may still continue. I tell my landlord I will pay the...

Do you have a reliable source? I mean other than dongonzalos. Do you have a reliable source? I mean other than castlevaleskyblue.

Bullseye! Tim Fisher, chief executive of Coventry City Football Club, explained: "We want to be 100 per cent transparent and open about the situation so our supporters are left in no doubt about what is happening. "Our accounts were due on February 29. As part of the accounts submission...

Brilliant piece once again from your keyboard OSB! I really applaud you for taking your time to present the financial stuff in layman's terms. Even I can understand most of it now ... and if I can, everybody can! Thanks again!

Can I please ask you to read OSB's brilliant new piece on the finances and how it will look if Hoffman (or anyone else get in on his suggested terms)? http://www.skybluestalk.co.uk/threads/15229-Financial-mechanics-at-CCFC

You forgot Hoffman as the trinity had majority vote in the 5 man board the first three years. Another mess was the fact that Ranson held almost 20% of the shares - his position at the board was very likely (I am making an educated guess here) stipulated in the shareholders agreement. That...

Well, if nothing else I think this thread puts to bed the 'all fans are/feel/think/hope/demand ...' claim. We are not united behind any one plan or statement. We are not united in anything, but the desire to see our club do well.

If sisu and Hoffman cannot co-exist in harmony, then they should not try to negotiate a take-over. That will never have a happy ending (the ending is when the deal is done and suddenly noone can agree on the actual meaning in the documents). If they are all businessmen, they will understand to...

Is that some sort of new age communism? The 'masses' forcing one set of 'capitalists' to surrender their property, only for the 'masses' to hand the property over to another set of 'capitalists'?

I do associate the protests (the unrest it cause inside the club) and the success on the pitch. We saw the form dip when the Ranson/Hoffman/Elliott vs sisu fight started last winter and the form only recovered when 'the three' had left the boardroom. Then again when the media sitcom 'Hoffman vs...

The chance of that happening is (in my eyes) exactly the same if Hoffman takes over.

First - I think it was the stewards at the Ricoh - under orders from the management of the Ricoh - who took away the banners. The Ricoh is NOT owned by sisu, so you can't really blame that on the club owners. Second - at this moment there seem to finally be some sort of order and relative calm...

On the bright side ... with the squad size greatly reduced, it does seem there are one or two less in the treatment room.

Dennis Wise. We need first and foremost a real general in midfield to bring urgency to our game and to scare the living hell out of the opposition (and to idle teammates).

I think John Hartson was a very good header too. Haven't heard about him since he recovered from cancer (testicles, lung and brain). Is he still alive?

Save the home games for the rainy days ...

The rules have been known for a long time and the clubs have been given the opportunity to plan accordingly. Come next season and panic will spread among the fans in clubs where owners didn't prepare in time.

In this league FFP dictates that any club can only spend 100% of the clubs income on player wages. As we have been cutting wages all season we should now be one of a handfull clubs who are in compliance. Other clubs will need to reduce wages significantly ... here's looking at you Leicester...
