I support any attempt to purchase, at a fair and reasonable rate whilst acting like a professional businessman. Something that Ranson managed to do much better than Fisher. Fisher I'm afraid doesn't work like that so I cannot support his actions.

If we are successful within the next 5 years its irrelevant anyway as the club we currently support are not Coventry. All CCFC fans would prefer to see the team lose every week in Coventry over winning in Northampton, unless they are some sort of plastic glory supporter.

Good blog. Les Reid offers his opinion, some Sky Blues fans offer an opinion that disagrees with his, where's the problem? I think I have to question as to whether that is Les Reid replying though. If so I am concerned that a senior editor for the CET can reply in such a childish manner.

This is a business dispute, therefore can we use their registered names please? I have rewritten to how it should be: Which side are you on? Simple question but needs careful thought before answering. 1. Otium Entertainment Group Ltd or 2. Arena Coventry Limited Answer either 1. or...

This entire thread is hypothetical, its about whether Fisher would have been more successful than Ranson. HAD Ranson tried to buy the Ricoh he would have been more successful at it than Fisher. Or to put it another way, Do you think Fisher has been successful in his attempts to buy the Ricoh?

According to him on Sisus instructions. But leaving that aside, I suggest you consult a dictionary about the word WOULD.

Leicester aren't doing bad either, might give them a watch! In all seriousness, if its not in Coventry it means nothing to me. Regardless of who you blame, ccfc have stabbed thousands of fans in the heart, and it doesn't matter what the football is like, it will take a long time to forgive.

I think Ranson would have been much more successful in securing Ricoh ownership. Fisher is an arrogant turd who seems to have gone out of his way to antagonise the council from day one. I remember when Ranson was there a local councillor telling me how good the relationship between...

It depends how you look at it. If Fisher left tomorrow his tenure would be the worst in the clubs history, compared to Ransons relatively stable leadership.

Not in favour yet, still time to get our club back. I think your forgetting something Nick, it is the club that has abandoned the fans, not the other way round.

Would you care to explain why the club needs to own the freehold of a stadium?

What a strange man you are. Higgs trust have done far more for this city than sisu ever have or ever will, improved the lives of countless children yet you despise them for some reason? The council is effectively the collective treasurer for the people of Coventry, its our money. Are you...

I suspect there will be nothing new revealed in this meeting. Will be a charm offensive I think (nothing wrong with that but after 6 years you have to question the timing. Perhaps the prospect of 2k gates are concerning her?).

Well what could they have done about it?

Or maybe, and much more likely, they don't have a clue what they are doing and there is no master plan? Since they've taken over I've seen nothing to suggest they are capable of running a major sports club. In fact I've seen nothing to suggest they're capable of organising a prayer in a...

But they have never answered as to why they just didn't stay at the Ricoh until this mythical new ground is built? The fundementals are the club is over £2m a year worse off than had it stayed at the Ricoh.

If they can't afford it how can they afford to pay Northampton rent on 2k gates?

We dont need to own a ground, we need to own income streams.

New ground six miles from Coventry? That sounds convenient to get to.

The whole of Milton Keynes feels manufactured and wrong. I include the stadium in that.
