    Food and Beverage revenues

    Impossible to tell anything without knowing what they are classing as costs. In the days before Rugby was properly professional the bar at Coundon Rd used to make a loss, not that I'm suggesting that the cash was given to the players as payment, that would not be provable.

    They may agree with point one, I'm not aware of them reneging on a sale deal, any more info on this? What was the deal if it wasn't a straight sale? The Academy bad decisions, are they related to trusting SISU too much as well?

    200% Coventry City, New Ground, The Charity and The Hedge Fund

    Are you suggesting that their bad decision was to trust SISU to pay the fees, or was the bad decision agreeing to discuss the sale of their share?

    The Higgs Share..

    I agree, there is minimal risk in paying the market rate for some land in the current financial climate. It will sit as an asset for them, could well prove a decent investment for them, and of course some people may believe a ground will follow in due course. I know you don't think a ground...

    Disheartening Sky Blue's Story On The Way..

    The dividend part is irrelevant, many people who invest in shares do not get a dividend, they rely on capital growth. If ACL are growing as a business, or even if it were merely stable, you surely wouldn't class that as a high risk investment. How are you defining 'principally'? Are you...

    Spoke to a property lawyer

    The question was about who is the debt payable to, not who lent the money. The money is owed by ACL to the Council. It is an asset of the Council.
