How will they afford the rent and match charges with such small ticket sales?

What ARE you on about?

Not surprised, was looking for a figure but once I saw on twitter they were letting people in through the Atrium rather than the turnstiles I had a good idea.

What's their normal crowd? I imagine far less. Hope this helps them pick up a bit of support but its not for me.

Well I was genuinely curious.

Personally I'd not be against as many fans as possible today going to the Ricoh and Sixfields. It shows action and, well, it offers the opportunity to show unity of a kind.

Non attendance is apathy however. I also fear messages pushing people to choose one or the other probably results in people choosing neither, and am not sure how that helps us long term.

On the other hand, those wanting both CCFC at Sixfields and also ACL and Ricoh NOPM'd appear to be getting their wish!

The charges for renting the ricoh to play their game.

I hope they did make done money and get exposure though.

I guess the contract they signed sensibly covers that- else they wouldnt have signed it, like any professional business.

A bit like the headline agreement signed by the council and ACL agreeing to SISUs offer for a 50% stake in ACL?

Oh, no, that wasn't a contract was it, so you can renege on them whenever you want. Forgive me.

Sorry, couldn't resist.

How many times-- yes McGinnity etc negotiated and signed the original contract, Sisu conducted due diligence and legally took over all related contracts i.e Sisu signed it over. It happens all the time, Sisu the new owner took over the existing contract.
Its not that difficult to understand is it?

Why is the Ricoh and who is playing there being discussed on the Sky Blues forum? The Sky Blues now play at Sixfields Stadium in Northampton. Get used to it or do something about it instead of sniggering at what is happening at our former ground.

Not really at all, and bringing down both crowds proves what? That nobody can be bothered? It shouldn;t be a competition about who gets most.

Or least.

Me Tim? That fat, smug bastard who hadn't had a job for years, after being sacked as a completely useless sack of shit, until SISU recruited him to do their dirty work?

Drat it, I can't fool you, Joy, but I think I have managed to fool a lot of the mugs on here . How long have you been posting?

You mean watching a team called Coventry City playing in Coventry? Very novel! And not going to Sixfields IS doing something about it!

I adore the smell of your used knickers, they remind me of the first time I had sex. What is it that you do in them that makes them smell of a Scout Master's shorts, fragrant one?

Well, the council won't be able to keep that playground open much longer if they are only getting one boy and his bike. Isn't there someone they could give it to?

I'm not bothered about ACL. Never have been. Nor SISU for that matter. My heroes are Ralf Hutter, Florian Schneider, Karl Bartos, Wolfgang Flur, Pete Shelley, Steve Garvey, John Maher, Steve Diggle, John Foxx and Bill Nelson. Didn't realise they were clubbing together to build us a new stadium. Very nice of them.

Is there any evidence to back up Mr Fishers claims that he had agreed with the council to distress ACL? That would have been something I'd have been waving copies of of from every street corner but strangely that hasn't happened.
