got a legal binding lease csb ............ so yes you are right.
there's loads of temporary seating that has been warehoused unused since the olympics. Wouldn't be that difficult (assuming there's space, I've just had a quick look on Google Maps never been there!) to bring the Butts up to 10-12K or were SISU agree to develop it to that capacity permanently surely they would be able to negotiate a stake in it.
Not saying either of those things are options but if SISU can show that somewhere else is viable then that is to their advantage. I would assume ACL have gone down this road to call SISUs bluff but I'm not sure SISU are the types to respond in the way you would normally expect.
And let's face it a 5 min walk from town and a stadium that's packed would be a much better matchday experience than the Ricoh in the hihgly unlikely event it ever happened. I know people talk about all the facilities at the Ricoh but would your average supporter be bothered if there wasn't a casino to go in and all the other things that come with the Ricoh. I know there would be a drop in available hospitality but we don't really know the % take up at the moment or how much that loss would be offset by reduced rent. Maybe it's not such an out there idea as we'd all previously thought?
Ricohs just one big concrete morque anyway, completely souless and void of any atmophere (like most new stadia tho). Lets hope, that if we do have to move to a new ground then all the negative moaning i could of been a pro footballer so called supporters can stay at the ricoh.........
Is there anyway they can put one of the companies associated with CCFC into admin or liquidation and get rid of the lease that way? Assuming the lease is tied to whatever company is actually CCFC (as in the football club itself) so long as the league would transfer the golden share then could that company not just be wound up and SISU walk away without paying the rent? Sure there's more to it than that but I wouldn't put anything past SISU!
This was always going to come to a head at some point.
Ccfc can not keep paying rent fees that are unrealistic.
where is that sort of money going to keep coming from, when we are only getting gates of 10k and any money through the sale of food and drink ect doesn't come to the club.
ACL either lower the rent or we look to move and play else where.

Another stupid thread on the suitability of a park pitch with one stand.
And what if 50% of the current rent is still unsustainable ?
We need to still find that 50% of the rent, with low tickets sale and very little other income streams we just can't operate as a business.

why are the club and ACl banding around fixed fee figures for rent, surely the best way to do it would be on a percentage of attendances
The one major flaw in that plan is that this is the people of Coventry and Warwickshire we're talking about. Unfortunately, they don;t turn up very often. The new ground should be in Norfolk. We'd do OK then.
Ticket sales are double the league 1 average, and what income streams do other clubs have?

Knew it would be the fans fault at some point! Well done, you've found your scapegoat.
<br />But from what I know ACL have offered to reduce by over 50% but it was rejected out of hand so who is not being transparent in their actions<br />
<br />

Well how much more is the rent we pay than the league 1 average ?
Foods sales at the Ricoh arn't going to get us to the premiership, like you so intelligently put it.
But they are going to help towards what we can put on the football pitch, as I understand it.
