Dovin's injury or Arena Coventry Limited?

Arena Coventry Limited doesn't exist any more since Frasers Group bought the stadium.

Do you mean Fraser's Group?

They publish results here: Frasers

But the Arena is just a tiny part of the group's overall operation and they have no obligation to detail specifically how the Arena operation is doing. You will find some details under "property" of the most recent HY25 report for the period up to October 2024 here:

https://frasers-cms.netlify.app/assets/FrasersGroup-HY25-Results-Announcement.pdf

To give you a sense - the property operation as a whole is only 1.5% of the group's revenue, and the Arena is just a fraction of that 1.5%.

Some more details here from the accounts in the year they acquired:

Frasers Group Accounts confirm CBS Area purchase price, revenue & losses

Not sure if anyone has talked about this yet, but the Fraser Group have published their 22/23 accounts - this is the year that included their purchase of the arena. I am a mere amateur, but I was curious and had a look at them. It looks like ownership is under a subsidiary called Coventry Arena...
www.skybluestalk.co.uk

If you're bored you can probably look at the property sections of the accounts since then to kind of work out how revenue / losses are trending by reading between the lines on the other things they've acquired and their own value, revenue, loss etc but I can't be bothered.

The other 98.5% must be them raking it in selling designer clothing to people who can’t afford it and paying for it on the drip via the FrasersPlus app

I thought I'd have a look in the one in town that sells the designer stuff. Fucking hell, £300-£400 for a basic cotton t shirt. Imagine getting into debt for that.

Bet it's made in the same place as the Primark ones but just a different label.

I see they've got a stake in a couple of operations in Denmark wondering if they have any connections to Hummel?

You have to hand it to them.. they have hoovered up a load of brands including Mulberry, Jack Wills and Gieves and Hawkes as well as the shite like Slazenger. They can get all these made in the same Chinese factories and slap a badge on them. Must be massive margins to add to the Flannels portfolio to sell via Fraser’s Plus with all the crappy volume stuff going to Sports Direct.
