KC is where the money come to build it. IIRC KC was also council owned so it's not really an exception at all. SISU weren't let of the hook they invited them to talks about ownership on at least two occasions that we know of the first being October 2013 the second being January 2014. If SISU...

Aside from the fact she didn't just say it in a council meeting. How many companies out there would be interested? Is it even viable without a permanent sports team in place? Surely in reality it's only viable to a sports team with a fixture list to fulfill? Would ACL have needed to sell...

Of course AEG knew. You concern yourself then with that SISU weren't bidding on a level playing field. I'll concern myself that they weren't bidding at all. I don't have an objection. I just recognise that chances are the outcome would have been the same, wasps would have bid and SISU...

Are you saying AEG didn't know that CCC would listen to any serious offer? Look at the links I put up earlier. There's quotes from a full council meeting in October 2013 where SISU were invited for talks over the Ricoh. They had ample opportunity to bid for the Ricoh before the council publicly...

I don't get your argument here Dave. Are you saying that CCC should have even done more to attract potential bidders so even more people could have done what SISU didn't? Who else do you think is out there looking for a stadium? SISU were the only show in town according to the experts on here...

We as fans have a limited voice. Public forums such as this are one of the few places where you can actually get your opinion into the domain, thank you Nick for providing that service. I don't believe for one moment that the club doesn't read this forum. They may even pay attention from time...

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-35835967 Here you go Dave. Sport England, City of Coventry Swimming Club and the Amateur Swimming Association must all be part of this smoke and mirrors cover up for wasps to secretly be taking our place at the Higgs to.

SISU were invited previously to talk about the sale of The Ricoh http://www.coventrytelegraph.net/news/coventry-news/time-running-out-sisu-want-6257043 this dates back to October 2013. Here's a snippet “My statement to full council on Tuesday October 22 confirms that all options are available...

Well then they needed to be buying ACL then didn't they? Are you really suggesting that SISU couldn't work that out for themselves?

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-coventry-warwickshire-25728542 Were you in a coma that day? Your only offer is unfortuantly always your best offer. Did SISU know that the council were willing to listen to offers?

See. Playing let's pretend is a team sport and the opposition were using moves like "The business was washing it's face". Same as SISU say things like our investors will cover the losses of Sixfields before selling Wilson to cover the losses of Sixfields, or we will never return back to the...

Is there a law or something saying that they are the only ways a business can be sold? It was publicly announced, it was on TV, on the radio and in the papers. According to some on here there was only one show in town. Why do these same people now insist that there should have been a prospectus...

First offer? What was the second one?

Are we still playing lets pretend on this one as well. Offers were invited publicly as well you know. Wasps made one SISU didn't. Are you suggesting SISU didn't know that offers had been publicly invited? Perhaps JS thought AL had just dropped in while passing by for a cup of tea and talk about...

It must be a team sport playing lets pretend. How many options does a distressed business have? It really isn't that difficult. Why were we sold to SISU? It's all the same reason.

1) We don't know the outcome of the JR for starters as it's still ongoing. Unless you have some insider knowledge? 2) A JR isn't the reason that they had to sell unless halting a JR would have made up part of any agreement. I don't think wasps are looking or taking CCC to court for a JR on...

You assume wrong. We all know and I'm not going to play silly buggers with someone pretending otherwise.

Don't know and quite frankly don't care. This thread was running along nicely discussing the future of the academy until one of the usual suspects turned up with another conspiracy theory to turn it all on wasps. I'm actually angry with myself now for biting. Do me a favour Nick and delete my...

So they would be doing it to help CCFC then?

There's a lot of extra facilities going into broadstreet including buildings, a running track and 4g pitch i believe. So you're suggesting that they are going to build them there, which is no weekend job and then build them again at the Higgs once the smoke and mirrors have cleared as it was all...
