In other words whoever owns the club will never ever play at the Ricoh again as any owners will not want one penny going in the public purse.
To be honest I would want a management company based in my town to run it rather than some mysterious offshore company that has proven to be incompetent.
The fact that it is a council as well gives me a feeling of security and I am willing to put up with its inefficiencies in the hope that any future profits will go into the public purse.
I'm sure any prospective new owners will take note.
If they pay a fair price for it they will respect it.
If they get it for nothing they don't have to.
You need to explain the comment Grendel I don't recognise it. Once you have explained the context I will try and answer my opinion. Js wants it all and doesn't care about the club. What is your motivation Grendel? We are both fans.
First how do you know she wants it all and doesn't care about the club?

And how do you know she does?

SISU's plan derived by Fisher in December 2011, and then activated in March 2012 when ARVO registered 2 Debentures at Company's House against the Football Club, was the beginning of the end for Coventry City. The ACL Management had insight into Fisher and Seppala's plan, and scuppered it. Certain players on the ACL Board were a little smarter than SISU thought.
No, thats idiotic. I would say you a problem with councils clouding your thinking.
In one post you say they are not making a profit so they should hand it over then in this one you say they shouldn't make a profit.
You talk bollocks and I don't know why.
More nonsense. No evidence whatsoever suggests anyone wants something on the cheap
Again, you probably missed this because it was when last week's court case was still deemed irrelevant by you. But sisu valued higgs share of ACL at £ 0.00. Presumably they valued*CCC's half the same. This is a company with better accounts than the ones they have lumbered the club with. So yes, they want something for nothing, that's less than on the cheap.
Ooo. You may be onto something grendull. If ACL is worth zero pounds sisu should pay the trust to take CCFC of their hands. We'd be doing them a favour and the club could start playing in Coventry again with immediate effect. It's a win win.

No disrespect to anybody, could the trust run a club?
Can Sisu/Otium?
They offered £5.5 million you idiot.

No they didn't. The terms if payment was not acceptable and they then offered £2 million.They offered £5.5M going into negotiations and then changed there mind during negotiations.
Try and keep up!!
They didn't offer anything. The talks never got that far. Hence, last week's irrelevant then not irrelevant court case.

Sorry? How many other football clubs forums would anyone care about a management company. They wouldn't want it to have a fair deal they'd want it to go bust and get it as cheaply as possible. As I do.
Anybody else wish there was a magic button on here that could fast forward to June/July?
Ha Ha this from the poster that turns every Thread onto ACL or CCC of course we care about Coventry, well I do anyway and that includes the City of Coventry where I live and Love as well as Coventry City FC who I also love. Unfortunately I don't want our current owners who I don't like and who have fucked up one of my loves to have something for nothing just to fuck it up even more and leaving us with nothing!
So you believe that Sisu have done well for this club and giving them the Ricoh will make them even better, yet you also make out to be far superior then the rest of us on your £100,000 per year?
I just glad that I am uneducated and only on a fraction of that.
Enjoy this thread.
A lot better than the trust. We'd be out of business in a week.
No they didn't. The terms if payment was not acceptable and they then offered £2 million.
The original offer was according to the council over valued.
Really? If the right management structure was in place following detailed analysis of how the model works in Germany, acceptance of a lowly rental deal with access to revenues at the Ricoh (how could ACL possibly refuse this), higher attendances would increase income, the buzz in the city would increase sponsorship having fans directly involved with their club and the promise of negotiations into the Ricoh. Not saying it would definitely work but I know one thing and that is that Sisu/Otium have made a complete pigs ear of it so far.
Have you ever heard of Ricardo Montablan?

I have never said sisu have "done well for this club". If you want a debate its best if you do not start from a false premise.
We started debt free in the championship
