"Maybe he did this, maybe he was thinking that" etc etc
I'm sure you can work out who yourself chap.
It'll be a fine thread to reference well into the future...

Don't do it though because even though it takes 5 seconds to find an old post on here you'll be laughed at for doing it.
If someone is using words like "maybe" and "think" they are clearly speculating on what might have happened, when someone says categorically "no he didn't mean that" they are trying to pass their opinion as fact. Either that or it is a fact and they are indeed a mind reader.
I'm surprised you didn't work that out for yourself chap.
You wouldn't want to burn bridges.......
.....it's like when we came back to the Ricoh, the opportunity to rebuild bridges with ACL and their former owners.
And back to your point, why would Robins bother saying anything? He was moving to a club in a higher league, for more money and a better wage bill.

How did that work out for him? You've sort of proved my point really. Especially when you consider that the job he did take next at least on the surface would have been a less attractive prospect than us at the time he took that job. But if he'd left slabbing of SISU the door would have been closed.

Tell me Nick why would he burn the bridge to re-employment at a club where he would clearly be a popular fans choice should he be unemployed and that said club be without a manager?
You don't seem to have noticed but football management is a cut throat and often short lived career so I don't think you are crediting him with the intelligence he has clearly demonstrated.

You invented a scenario yourself about what Robins did. Started off all nicely with "Don't you think" but quickly followed two posts later with an absolute "The intelligence he has clearly demonstrated"
So you are one of the mind readers I was talking about. Chap. I'm not surprised you didn't work that out yourself though. No self awareness whatsoever 'it seems'.
The full quote is above. If you're going to quote me do it in full. Quoting in part is a cheap trick. I clearly stated it as opinion not fact by saying I think. You seem to be struggling with that chap.
Why would he want to come back if he left because SISU were so bad and couldn't wait to leave?
JD or Southern Comfort?

A league one football managers job or join the real world? Which would you prefer? There's plenty of ex players and manager's do real jobs as they have no other choice.
Like i said. I don't think you want to credit him with the intelligence he probably deserves. Maybe it doesn't fit in with your mantra.
Do you ever think that he just didn't want to burn his bridges on the chance he might need a job one day and as he was unlikely to seek employment with CCC in that scenario thought it best to leave on a good note with SISU?
Couldn't really give a shit what you think you have noticed to be fair.
So according to some he couldn't wait to get out, he slagged off the council but didn't say anything that bad against SISU as he didn't want to burn bridges so he could have the door open to come back?
My Mantra? Im not the one making up imaginary scenarios to try and suit.
I am sure he is an intelligent man, maybe you shouldn't be so quick to sidestep his council comments then? Or was he being thick then?
Great post Astute. All parties are at fault to varying degrees, but why should the Coventry tax payer be held to ransom because a dodgy hedge fund want everything their way? Their way of thinking is...What's yours, is mine, and what's mine, is my own.But CCC should help CCFC doesn't mean CCC should help SISU. And with SISU refusing to talk to CCC unless in a court room it ended up being a hard task. SO you say that CCC should have helped CCFC more. How much more taxpayers help do you think should have been used? Fisher was still saying that they were not interested in the Ricoh because of the outstanding loan. We can go back to when CCC/Higgs tried doing a deal with SISU. They went back on each deal until it came down to unencumbered. To me that was wanting the arena without the loan to be paid. So should the taxpayer taken the hit so a hedge fund could benefit? Is anyone trying to say that MR thought that CCC should bail out SISU? Things carried on getting worse between CCC/SISU after he left. Would he have continued to have wanted more from CCC?

Which dodgy hedge fund are you talking about here, the one that owns CCFC or the one CCC sold ACL to?
@ chiefdave.....Hohohoho..Hahahaha....Your wit knows no bounds. In all seriousness though...Which "Dodgy Hedge Fund" has had numerous opportunities to buy into the Ricoh Arena over the last 7 years, and at one point "Shook hands" on a "Heads of Terms" then immediately reneged?...Now carry on with your "Witty Japes" My sides are hurting whilst rolfl. Hahahahaha!

The court actually found that BOTH sides immediately reneged
I thought the court said that when Higgs asked to see proof of funds when SISU asked to pay on the never never they then valued the Higgs share at zero pounds but recognising that they're a charity offered £2M at which point both sides lost their appetite to continue. So not immediately, later.
