So do we know the terms that were given by Sisu when they took over and do we know them now years later?

Who gives a fuck what the terms are as long as we get these leeches out of our club and our team back in Coventry.

impossible to do a shitter job then Sisu to be honest

Ermmm to know if it is a good deal or not before I can judge it? Would you want to know how much you were paying for your mortgage before agreeing it?

Why does anybody need to know the details of SISU's accounts? We had best stop telling OSB to look at them as we don't need to know.

If somebody put a thread on here about the shop manager moving jobs and it turns out he got a new job on double the money then yes, his wage would be relevant I guess.

WHAT has my mortgage got to do with watching football ? again if you dont no whats in the players contracts or how much we pay for grass seed at ryton , by your logic you can not get behind the team. seems you and a few others have argued yourselfs into a corner ,and now just have to argue for the sake of it

No I don't think we did know the terms then but i do know most were blindly backing that without much detail and look how that turned out.

To be honest can't be bothered any more. I am only on here because I am bored and the World Cup has come to an end and I have yet to watch a full game.

I haven't argued myself into a corner though have I?

Should we stop looking at accounts and court documents then as they don't matter as they are nothing to do with us?

When have I said I can't get behind the team? I'm saying people can't judge this offer without knowing the details can they?

However, I'd be less inclined to get behind a player if I knew he was on a high wage and didn't give a shit.

Michael can demand answers from the club and other people and rant when he doesn't get them but then do exactly the same thing. Surely it should be saying an example on how to do things....

Who is backing them? It's funny that some of the people accused of backing them actually warned against them years ago.

Maybe if Mr Coventry had been more cynical and wanted more details he wouldn't have been driving round collecting shares from people.

The stadium will be ready and we will have had 3 years in Coventry. The club would benefit financially and the fan base would be maintained.

You believe a new Stadium will be built, situated in Coventry and delivered in three seasons then Italia? You sure changed your tune...

As a true fan of the club I praise anyone trying to do something to get us out of this mess. You like a true wum pick and choose based on your personal gripe with the council. If you can't use it as a vehicle to bash the council you're not interested.

So anyone on here who slagged rob Stevens off on here is a wum?

You could say that by not criticising them you are backing them.
Or, you could say that by criticising people who are offering an alternative option that would scupper Sisu play for the Ricoh is backing them.
You could say that going to Sixfields is backing them.

Those same people who warned against them now want to give them everything,brilliant. Also to be quite clear I trust Elliott as much as I trust Sisu.

No, but by Sisu saying that a new stadium is the plan, why would they not go for this idea?

The same way as grass seed as you brought players contracts into it?

I have been posting about wanting to see the terms of all deals, the difference is the club haven't been running to the press after 2 days basically saying things are great deals.

Yes they are blagging about this amazing new stadium but if tim Fisher was posting how good it was on here I'd assume nobody would ask any questions about any of it would they?

Nobody is on here looking at accounts to try and see what's going on are they? Nobody is demanding answers from the club are they?

I would have just thought somebody so openly demanding answers to things like where has money from arsenal gone would show them how to do things properly.

I don't think this discussion is necessary again is it ? I think most of us can agree that we don't see a stadium being built.. The reasons a return to the Ricoh should be negotiated is so that the Clubs long term future at the Stadium can't be guaranteed.

He often changes his tune. Used to suck the sisu cock daily - including when they didn't pay the rent. You'll never see one post from me saying well done sisu - Italia can't say the same.

I assume its why he's called Italia - changing sides to back the winning horse.

This is my point, it needs to be done properly for the good of the club (not sisu) so that we never get in this situation again.

Let me just flip your last question and ask you one before I answer it. What happens to CCFC if we have 3 more years at Sixfields?

If a 3 year deal is agreed between the parties then what we all get is to watch our team at HOME for 3 years which at present isn't likely now. If nothing is made permanent then we go back to Sixfields and then what have we lost? At the very least it gives 3 years to try and negotiate a deal, a chance to get back lost fans, a chance to build bridges, a chance for Sisu to cut their loses, a chance not to lose as much money/fans and finally as I said.......a chance to watch us at HOME again for 3 years

No i said what deals , weather it be players wages or the price of grass seed ,have you demand to know about before you can back the club , as you have said the only way you can back a deal to bring the club home is to no every part of it , sorry that just seems bizarre

Has Michael obtained football league approval for a 3 year deal I'm the actual city boundaries? The rules state 10 years. I assume he has - perhaps he can share the correspondence with the Football League.

We all know that, but if Sisu are still saying the stadium is the plan they surely would snap up someones offer of free rent and match charges for 3 years.
Why would anyone not take it and then take the income from 5000 fans paying double the Sixfields charges, plus sponsors, maintained fan base etc etc?

If the new stadium is bullshit they will have to reject this and it will be seen by all. Which may be the intention of the offer.

There is no doubt that the affects of CCFC playing at Sixfields would not just financially insufficient compared to the same time period at the Ricoh but it may also have a detrimental affect on the fan base, past, present and the future..

The problem is we are discussing this option like this is the answer to all our problems , but there are no guarantees, but I hope to be proven wrong..

Come on Nick do you remember when we went to the mini forum we were bored shitless with all that accounts rubbish,

Leave that to the people it affects sisu and Michaels backer.

FFS you don't even hear what a player sells for half the time these days that how it is in football.

I'm only speaking hypothetically here Grendel but if this got the parties speaking or Sisu/Otium more open to a return to the Ricoh (even if it was temporary) then would you say well done to Michael?
