Yes of course. If that's where Coventry City were playing. I hope they are playing at the Ricoh but if it transpires not to be then a new stadium in Coventry will do fine.

I think there is lots of leaps into the dark here. I can't see quite how you can firmly suggest SISU won't stop trying to distress ACL because they want the Ricoh arena? I think it's more complex than that. The deal offered now is not as easy and as good as it looks. However with the F&B added...

It doesn't. This is a deal to have them realise an exit strategy surely? 10 year lease n the Ricoh adds value to the sale of the football club especially with such peppercorn style rent. ACL will hope they take it and they sell up in a season or two. If not they know that such low rent is likely...

To my mind ACL are giving as best they will to entice SISU to leave by an assignable lease over 10 years. Enough to add value to the football club as a going concern and therefore perhaps with a season or two SISU can be instrumental in getting back to the championship, offer the business for...

Not sure about this. 10 year assignable lease gives SISU the asset they need to quickly get out of town perhaps?

Funny how time eventually runs out and the crunch moment inevitably arises.

If this is true then I'm not at all surprised. I expect ACL will sign the agreement in the end but time perhaps for Ms Joy and Ms Lucas to put there 10 pennyworth in first and have a handshake before ACL are instructed to agree. We will play at Sixfields this week and Ricoh will be readied for...

...you won't get your club back. It will be gone. Tell what evidence do you have that SISU as owners of the football club and operators of CCFC (Ltd) have done anything illegal? So everything SISU do is a bluff? Like we won't be playing at Northampton? In your eyes then ACL/council have done...

Jesus are we not in the abyss already? Is there any further to go? I suggest some of you wake up. Calling for investigations into SISU is astounding me. Who do you think pays for that? You really think (and I can't think why or how) that SISU have made criminal decisions over a pathetic football...

Otis they are not going to ever get 10,000 at Northampton and by saying they will fund the gap while away suggest the term is short and they did not expect any large support 35 miles away. So logic says they will return to the Coventry area asap. OK so where? Currently according to the press...

I put my view on this dadgag on plenty of post previously. To answer you with my opinion on that very question: Short term ACL need to do a deal to entice the SISU owned football club back to the Ricoh for the foreseeable future. Sign the CVA. This season maybe even rent free with match day...

My feelings are with Coventry City F.C. The one that won the FA Cup in '87 and the one I will support until it dies or I die. Owners as despicable as the ones we have currently will come and go. Survival and not total destruction and liquidation is uppermost in my thoughts. I don't take any...

The thing is not going to Northampton will make no impact other than maybe effect the very results you are hoping for from success on the pitch by giving your backing to the players? This picky "I'll go to away games but won't give them a penny" just strikes me as hypocritical. You are telling...

I guess an investigation if ever carried out on SISU's ownership and paper trails may be damaging but does anyone truly think they have acted unlawfully? Rules are bent and misshaped continuously by companies to their benefit but usually within the law. I don't think they will discover...

I have no idea why you would think like that.

I raised this subject when Haskell was on the scene. SISU have invested some 30m net approximately. They will not leave while that kind of money is owed to them. They need to get close to recouping it and holding onto the club is their best option due to relegation. They need to improve the...

Any new ground will be constructed by a developer who will raise the capital. The caveat to this is SISU/football club will then pay the mortgage. That mortgage will be far less than the 1.3m rent they were paying to ACL for a rented pitch. CCFC/SISU will own the new stadium freehold and an...

the information is likely confidential until released Monday. The Trust have been entrusted with the process as representatives of the supporters and as such have fought for you. I'm sure they would tell you if they could but we will all know on Monday. fact is they should not even have said...

This is what happens on a forum. You answer with pure opinion and absolutely no fact. Just to be clear: They could build a small stadium inside a year. Planning could be granted very quickly. An option is just that an option (if it's required...like insurance) it does not mean we stay there 5...

Christ I'll get the violins out! Never heard such stupid one sided sentiment. Some on here have very short memories or simply join the sheep and never let up. I want SISU gone as much as the next person but some of you are getting ridiculously extreme. The fat lady has not been seen singing...
