Pure conjecture here, but he mentioned the whole process taking a couple of weeks, which takes you back to Nov 1st when Ashley got exclusivity. It could be that was the trigger for Joy to sell, or at least look for a different investor as the likelihood of getting the arena shrank dramatically...

Didn’t know, sorry for your loss. I know nothing will compensate, but hopefully you get some closure as you Yanks say.

Of course it could! It has to fit with the local plan, change of use would need to be considered, etc it’s hardly PD!

Timing and closeness to Sisu mostly, for me the fact that’s he’s talked at length about the arena and seems to know virtually nothing about the club and has no clear plans for it. I’m still holding out hope that it’s a bit of extra investment to get us further forward this season and beyond as...

Who else is going to play on the pitch and sell a bunch of tickets every other week?

I mean he’s a councillor, he can rock up to records and dig himself, talk to staff, etc. And if he finds something/gets blocked/finds a massive hole in the records, go public with it.

Ive always wanted a bunch of bars by the canal and have that but better developed. I think the rumours for Ashley were a hotel (which has long been mooted and makes sense with the conferences) and a car park, I’m guessing multi-storey so they can free up the others?

Indeed it will. The sad fact is that voters seem to become more austere the worse things get. Start thinking about what else money is going on and why it’s not going on them, nationalism, anti-immigrant sentiment, etc all seem to rise when times are bad.

The idea that some more complex game is afoot and someone who seems to be losing is actually winning. See all the Trump conspiracies. Mostly used as sarcastically or as cope.

If he had anything it would certainly benefit him to release it, like any non-Labour councillor. Same with the KovBlog/Piggy guy, always a red flag to me when it’s vague accusations and little proof.

No. Wasn’t in office 2012-2016

Yeah spotted my mistake.

That might be the nicest characterisation of me on here 😂

No I’m an idiot and misread his profile. He was first elected 2002! https://edemocracy.coventry.gov.uk/mgUserInfo.aspx?UID=485

Think how boring it would be without me 😘

No he was elected in 2016 (aged 21! Talk about a career politician)

Ah questions and GIFs, definitely the basis for a public investigation. The council are invested in the arena, this should be obvious. It’s a key piece of infrastructure. It’s obvious why they wanted Wasps there. The only reason anyone has come up with not to have them and let ACL die and with...

Standard to have a bit of a wobble. I did when I first left for Uni.

AFAIK he bought the three companies. Obviously what happens to take them out of admin is another question.

I think it’s just Twitter bleed, they all seem a bit mental over there.
