Yes let's. Watford and Swansea both over 20k so Bournemouth is actually the only real comparison to what SISU are suggesting and they have something we don't. A benefactor who was willing to pump money in. Plus how much historical debt do those examples have? How much debt are they servicing...

What makes you think we'd ever reach the need to expand to 20k starting from 12-15k? It doesn't give you the scope of success to need a 20k stadium baring the chance of a multimillionaire benefactor like Bournemouth. Start at 20k is all I'm saying. If you do anything different you're...

You just need to look at clubs with similar size grounds and see where they are. It's league one/two maybe a season in the championship every other decade at best. If we're lucky we can look forward to an away draw at Leicester in a cup and listen to them singing this is your Wembley. My...

You're joking aren't you. CCFC moving to a 12-15k ground would leave Wasps the only club in Coventry with any ambition and the opportunity to grow their fan base. This could actually play into Wasps long term plans nicely. I'm not promoting that and funnily enough neither is Italia. Some...

Yes but Grendull and his cronies will have the chance to stick two fingers up to wasps, ccc, Higgs, ct, fickle ccfc fans etc. etc. so it's clearly a price worth paying.

Snap.

No but the council will benefit from all the extra parking revenue in the town and no doubt from parking tickets in the area around the butts. Again Grendulls genius ideas are outing him as a double agent. He's not just promoting Wasps revenue streams he promoting CCC's as well. He's clearly...

Sounds like a plan to make people give up on CCFC and start going to Wasps instead because it's more affordable to the average Joe in Coventry. I think Grendulls plan has just outed him as a double agent. He's clearly applying reverse psychology to promote Wasps.

No your pea sized brain is too small to understand that 12k will only make the club a former shadow of itself on a bad day. What's the average crowd for a league two club let alone a bottom half league two club? What's the average windfall bonus of a cup run a season for a league 2 club? It...

A start? 12k is only the beginning of the end only. Engage your brain and do the maths. We're going to have to be on one hell of a bad deal at the Ricoh to be worse off. The location is great but stop fucking the club around. If there's scope for 20k rising then start as you mean to go on...

I've never bought a season ticket yet as well you know. You'll probably won't even give a fuck when you're sat in your seat smirking how SISU got one over everyone in a half empty 12k stadium languishing at the wrong half of division 2. That's your mentality. You don't give a fuck about the club...

For a capacity crowd they'd have to be more than double the price of those of a capacity crowd at the Ricoh to gain the same ticket revenue.

If we don't build it with at least 20k in the first place chances are we'll never need a 20k stadium unless someone turns up and buys the club and is willing to throw a shed load of cash at the team like what's happened at Bournemouth. We're just going backwards all the time. We won't even...

Needs to be 20,000 at least to begin with. If not how does the maths stand up as to possible 32,000 tickets while renting at the Ricoh? We keep being told it's all about the revenue and ticket sales is the biggest part of that by a long shot. At 12,000 - 15,000 its cutting our revenue potential...

Called it first http://www.skybluestalk.co.uk/threads/61360-Where-do-you-think-the-stadium-site-in-Coventry-might-be :claping hands:

Predicktable if nothing else.

He's tall enough already isn't he? ;)

Is it? Shows how long it is since I've been to that part of Coventry :)

Well Done TM & MV. Great news

Sad news. 32 is too young. RIP
