    Back to being the biggest club in Coventry?

    Again and neither do you. It's all supposition. Only you don't seem to have learned anything from not just SISU's ownership but also previous ownership and are throwing caution to the wind. You're championing repeating the same mistakes and expecting different results. It's madness. We're not...

    Back to being the biggest club in Coventry?

    What are the independent experts comparing to? There is nothing to compare to. They're generalising.

    Back to being the biggest club in Coventry?

    No, I haven't and that's the whole point I'm making. Your post is equally all supposition for the exact same reasons mine are. Only mine is erring on the side of caution whereas yours throws caution to the wind.

    Back to being the biggest club in Coventry?

    There's a big difference between what you're allowed to spend under the rules of the game and what you have available to spend. If you can't see that getting into more debt is going to mean that we'll have less available money to spend there's no helping you really. Just look at how wrong it...

    Back to being the biggest club in Coventry?

    How can indipendent experts actually tell us anything for sure? Yes they know the business model for the Ricoh because we're living it but they like us have absolutely no idea what residing in SISU's stadium will cost the club. There is nothing, nowt, zilch to compare the Ricoh model to. 3 years...

    Back to being the biggest club in Coventry?

    Sorry Dave but thats a complete red herring and you've been suckered into it. All stadium ownership will do (maybe, at best) is raise the ceiling of what we're allowed to spend under the rules. The reality is that the debt of owning our own ground is going to far outway the benefit it may bring...

    Back to being the biggest club in Coventry?

    I think you're right but there's no denying that a certain section of posters on here don't see it that way and frankly Wasps seem to be a welcome distraction from SISU for them, as is the council, Higgs, CT, ex managers, our fickle fans, SBT etc. etc.

    Back to being the biggest club in Coventry?

    They keep adding interest we can't afford onto a debt that we can't afford. So the real question is why wouldn't they put us into a situation that we couldn't afford. They do have history in doing this after all. Three year's and no business plan outlining the arrangement whatever that means. If...

    RIP Lemmy

    Sad loss. RIP.

    What was tm miffed about?

    The jist of what I got from the CWR interview was that the ref allowed us to make the substitution but didn't allow us the time to reshuffle the shape of the team and it almost cost us a goal. Basically he was saying he started the game to soon.

    New goalie needed

    Also said on CWR that two championship clubs have scouts watching him and are seriously considering him. So the OP may well be proved right although not necessarily how they meant. We may well need a new goalie. Also TM's view was that it was a very well taken free kick that we couldn't do...

    Arsenal and Liverpool in race to sign James Maddison (Independent)

    Feel the same. If he goes in January we've lost the benefit on the field directly from him and I have my doubts about how much if any of any transfer fee will find it's way into boosting the playing budget.

    Mr Tinkerman

    TM is the reason we're in with a shout of promotion full stop. Dodged relegation on the last day of the season to promotion hopefuls. Some people need reminding of that and then give TM the credit he deserves. TM and his staff have turned this club around.

    That's not something I've ever considered but it certainly adds up.

    Back to being the biggest club in Coventry?

    There was nothing stopping you picking up the baton and running with it or anyone of the other's who spend all there time winging about it while doing nothing. As far as I'm aware there was one on line petition against it (which I signed) but that was organised by a wasps fan not a CCFC. You...

    Back to being the biggest club in Coventry?

    Sadly I think you're right. Personally I'm past caring what the outcome is I just wish it was done and dusted so it can be put behind the club and we can truly start moving forward without the baggage. But like you say I can see this running and running.

    Everyone should have followed your example of protesting about it. Oh wait they did. You did FA and so did most others. I guess that makes you one of the people Eastwood was surprised by.

    17779 attendance means one thing

    Peterborough and Doncaster both have restricted income due to stadiums with 15k capacity and Barnsley fans must be more fickle than us because despite having a stadium with 23k capacity didn't even average 10k last season which surely must dent their playing budget big time. Funny thing about...

    17779 attendance means one thing

    On a tight site like the BPA design is going to be a compromise dictated by a number of restrictions. Can't an away team request 10% for league games and 15% for cup games of the stadium capacity? Seems we're going to loose at least a couple of thousand from the overall capacity for home fan's...
