Is Sky Blue Sam now becoming the Council mascot, but dressed in white?

I literally don't know anybody who has been for Blockbusters for years, which is the problem of course.

Was saying Blockbuster would be next to go, think Waterstones hasn't got long either with the growth of Kindle and E-books. Haven't helped themselves by starting to sell Kindles, turkeys voting for Christmas springs to mind.

Year anniversary of the glorious Hoffman takeover brought you back has it?

Never liked lawyers myself.

Wank the lot of them? Don't think they deserve that after screwing the club up to be honest.

Goodnight Jim Bob..

Nope, nor would I invest in something that was overly reliant on a football club to stay in business,

Depends if the council was making more money on interest where it was before it was used for ACL, if you're going to take the "council getting ripped off by the club line". If it enables a lower rent to be paid and the Arena to become profitable then obviously would be the best option, Perhaps...

Think it was, little point to it otherwise really.

Lots of people would lose their jobs and the council would lose another £14million to whatever is already invested in the stadium. Eggs and baskets spring to mind.

Don't think they can til the option runs out?

I don't think that it affects the ownership issue in the slightest really, Sisu still have to come up with the £6million or so to buy out the Higgs share before the option runs out. The option must be pretty much due to expire by now. Think that after that Higgs could sell it to whoever they...

Not saying that all police are dodgy, but enough cases of wrongdoing over the years in all areas to not think of them all as Dixon of Dock Green either. Thatchers Thugs and Stormtroopers in the 80's, and far more protected by the media than attacked that's for sure.

Think I'll sort out my family budget with a one/off expenditure on black at the Casino.

Suppose it's a good investment opportunity and they know what they're doing. Hopefully safer than an Icelandic Bank.

It's a loan made because ACL couldn't afford to pay Yorkshire Bank, hardly a loan based on sound business decisions. Of course a £113 million asset shouldn't be handed over for free. Though a very small fraction of that alleged value was paid by either the council/ACL to build it. An asset is...

It seems that those that are celebrating the £14million that the council has put into ACL are the same ones who were worried that the rent not being paid by CCFC was impoverishing the poor council tax payers of Coventry.

Council workers Christmas parties now.

I am, but not very good at it, still bloody broke all the time.
