    Really? that does surprise me. Could be cos we're not allowed in half the place.

    Wasn't talking in revenue, OSB. Meant more in terms of sq ft of the complex. Just reinforces what the thing was built for in the first place.

    Wasps in talks to takeover Ricoh

    In saying all that, OSB, it is the Ricoh Arena, with their name emblazoned upon the top of a football stand, in a football stadium that was a CCFC badge on and sky blue seats all round. CCFC may not be the best customer but let's not forget, the Ricoh Arena was built especially for Coventry...

    Wasps in talks to takeover Ricoh

    It's just not for sale to the current owners of the football club.The problem's not with CCFC, it's with Sisu. I'm sure they would consider selling to different owners. Don't know what has gone on behind the scenes but it appears that both ACL and the council have a complete distrust of Sisu...

    Me neither, not after what Pressley has said. Seems already like Coubilly is a bit of a spare part in the squad.

    Tis for City fans at least, but it would be a traffic nightmare.

    Wasps in talks to takeover Ricoh

    I agree. A football club should own its own football ground. Was just pointing out, the Arena does indeed seem to be available for purchase to the 'right' bidder. Maybe if Sisu change their name and all wear false beards. Thinking about it, maybe that's Tim Fisher's master plan in view of his...

    That's what I don't get. Wasps fans will surely be even more outraged than us. That's an awfully long way to travel.

    To be fair to them Torch, that was aimed directly at Sisu. Think it has always been apparent that they would sell. It's just Sisu they have the problem with unfortunately.

    Wasps in talks to takeover Ricoh

    Once again I can but say ..... drop the bleeding legal proceedings against CCC /ACL you daft buggers. Do that and I don't see any reason why negotiations couldn't take place for Sisu to at least get a part share in the Arena. Maybe this is ACL being clever and getting Sisu to drop all the...

    They used to use Zebra years ago. Definitely bought my CCFC ST that way in previous seasons.

    Top 6 finish

    More often than not there is a newly promoted club pushing for a top 6 place in the higher division too, so that has to come into the thinking.

    Latest Preston crowd estimate

    Just to bugger you up big time I have now decided not to go, so it'll be 11,027.

    Yes agree. But like you say, if CCFC had access to an exhibition hall etc. they could do many of the things I have listed above in terms of turning it into a Sky Blue supporter zone.

    Yep, it's a really good idea. Another option may be the casino. If Sisu had a share in that or took ownership, then for match days they could make a much more Sky Blues themed day of it and get more supporters in that way, by maybe showing videos of previous games or beaming Academy games to...

    Not sure if this has been covered elsewhere before, but why can't ACL agree to sell off bit parts of the Arena to Sisu? Okay, fine, we know they are saying the stadium isn't for sale, but there at the site is the hotel, casino, conference facilities, exhibition halls, a theatre etc. Could it...
