    Legals Update This Week / SISU Lose chance to appeal

    I would think that the club will have to move first. Wasps can claim an open door in the absence of court cases having stated it on the record So If we assume that the leagls are parked for now and given the EFL hearing later this month I think they have to at least go through the motions of...

    My 26 years of being a Coventry City fan

    I remember when we had Chris Marsden on loan . Rave Reviews from the press especially down at Spurs, always seemed to have time on the ball , pulling all the strings in the team.......and then they let him collect his boots on the last day of his loan period and then go and sign for wolves...

    32,000 sold already

    Yep Sky can be myopic in their coverage sometime But remember that the next story could be 40,000 long faces as the long suffering CCFC supporters again suffer heartbreak. Plucky Oxford etc... I won't say against the odds because as a club you are better equipped both on and off the pitch...

    C-Unit Council

    You don't strike me as someone who would be stupid enough to knowingly take on a rent that would leave you bankrupt but you seem to think that CCFC / SISU somehow are a special case.. Think you are right to worry.

    The Butts - CRFC Confirms it is willing to join mediation talks

    OSB58 Agree with calling them out but.. If you were CRFC how would you feel about the business risk presented to you by CCFC (Otium) considering they are only operating because the loans have not yet been called in. I don't think I would be comfortable in developing the ground to accommodate...

    EXCLUSIVE: Coventry City chairman Tim Fisher dismisses takeover rumours and insists Mark...

    Only 20 you're lucky! No I don't for one second think that the £600k per year would materially have changed where the club is in terms of overall debt but now we are a sub £5million club its a significant proportion of our available spend. But certainly investing the £600k has not helped that...

    EXCLUSIVE: Coventry City chairman Tim Fisher dismisses takeover rumours and insists Mark...

    I really don't buy the academy argument, simply having a Cat2 academy is no guarantee of any footballers progressing from it into the first team. what it is is a guaranteed commitment to having to spend £600k when we cannot attract or pay a first team to compete at league one. I think all...
