The UN seem to have even less teeth than the football league. Tens of thousands of people dieing, lets talk about that, disagree or at best agree that we should frown sternly.

article says he has to give 14 days notice for a creditor meeting and that it's likely to be around 15th July. Why on earth didn't he call it a week or so before the final bids were due in to give him time to look at the bids and make a decision and then have the meeting soon after?

The Football League is awaiting further developments by the administrator in charge of Coventry City Football Club Limited before deciding whether to back a sale to Sisu-related company Otium. They include, in the first instance, the next meeting of creditors - which the Telegraph understands...

After reading Les reids article I don't see how we are going to be out of embargo before the season starts. We seem all sorts of screwed to me and relegation is really on the cards.

actually from reading the article its appleton that is the disgrace.

Guarantees no chance of promotion this season (not that anyone in their right mind thought it was on anyway) more disgrace from the FL.

He's still saying thats what it means and he is still gaining followers, nuts

I don't think he could possibly have believed that said what he suggested, in fact it very clearly states that it doesn't mean they have been failed. He should be unfollowed for sure. What an idiot.

LAME LAME LAME Chad, Thank you for making us aware of your petition and how well it is progressing. At the moment The Football League would like to confirm that no decision has been made on Mr Paul Appleton preferred buyer of Coventry City FC and The Football League are due to meet in the...

This is what I dont understand, how can the sale go forward if he creditors say no? or does the sale go forward with the debts intact? Surely you can't run up 100 mill in debts, go into admin, buy it back for £1 with the creditors saying no and then owe nothing?

I'm saying if Otium are not fit and proper, there is another bid and we sell to them, people are saying we will get a 15 point deduction because sisu wouldn't accept a cva, im saying how can you come out of admin without a cva? as that means the creditors don't accept what you are willing to pay...

he just tweeted it will be uploaded within the hour

I don't really understand how you can come out of admin without a cva? surely if the creditors don't accept the agreement then you don't leave admin and instead face being liquidated? or am I miss understanding that? if thats the case the sisu probably would accept a cva (I know getting miles...

the deduction would be for coming out of administration without a cva, so whenever that happens (if it did) we would likely get a further punishment.

It's probably the most likely scenario, which is why we needed to see it. The football league has stringent standards that must be met before we grant the league share, at this point these standards have not yet fully been met. I can see them having said something along those lines.

They presumably could bid again but surely Appleton couldn't pick them again not while having any appearance of credibility anyway.

He just tweeted again, sounds like an e-mail not a letter and are to fail and have failed are not the same thing. @CityCoventry @TheSkyBlueTrust I'm at work at moment, basically email says the FL believe Otium are to fail the leagues insolvency procedure

he did send a physical copy of the first 5000 signatures to the football league, all 177 pages of it, so I guess it is reasonable they would write to him. This is such a massive thing though I can't understand why if true he wouldn't have at least a photograph of the letter up right away.

no, his tweet about the letter was and hour ago and said he would post it up later.

It could actually be bad news for this season but I'd take that.
