Who remembers this http://www.theguardian.com/football/2004/jul/02/newsstory.coventry

The businessman bidding to take over Coventry claims he is lining up Gerard Houllier as the next manager with Eric Black pencilled in as the Frenchman's assistant.
Joe Dhinsa is planning to complete his buy-out in time for the start of the 2005-06 campaign, which is expected to open at the club's new 32,500-seater stadium.

Think that Northern Wisdom may have attended, but can't say for certain.

Knew that somebody did, but wasn't sure who.

Could very well be Otis, wasn't it breakfast at the Holiday Inn?

Alas, only a nice cup of tea

Was vaguely amused when Geoffrey Robinson called however, and McGinnity told him he was busy, he'd call back later and hung up on him!

Now *that's* power.

Among many of the things he told me between those four walls was the club *would* own the stadium.

Mystic Mike never proved more right eh.

Never trust an Albion fan!
Didn't he oust the very friend who brought him to the club in the first place?

I criticised him (Dhinsa) on another fansite and he had called me at work within the hour!

Didn't he post his mobile number in GMK so that anybody could give him a call?

Premium rate number wasn't it?

I wonder how many of those who went to his breakfast meeting are now season ticket holders at Sixfields?

Not sure what Dhinsa intentions were, maybe a publicity stunt. He certain got press for a while

Was waiting for the first dig at the Sixfields fans.

Well done.
