sad day today .. and i'll not be traveling over to Northampton, out of principal. I want the club at the Ricoh... end of!

will a fans "stay away" starve SISU out of the club .. we'll have to wait and see, but the same needs to be done to ACL at the ricoh

ACL have had just as much of a hand in this though.. and talk of going to watch games at the ricoh, or other teams at the ricoh is only going to be lining ACL pockets..

So while CCFC are are not at the ricoh.. it'll be not one penny more for ACL too, get the lot of em out!!

How would you give your pennies to ACL if we're not at the Ricoh anyway?

If you get ACL out now wouldn't it just be the council who would step in though?

Do not pay you're council tax either as the council are as much to blame for this .

if we can play for free at the ricoh but acl still keep catering monies,is that better financially for ccfc.
Instead of the other way round where we pay rent and keep the catering money?
which is the best option?​

well.. for a start, as i said above.. people have been talking about going to listen / watch covs matches ... or even going to watch other teams ( if they bring one in ) ..

not sure if you have been before.. so forgive me if im telling you things you already know here ( which i presume im not.. as you asked the question! ).. but there is also a casino under the ground ( which i used a lot ) .. their is a hotel ( which i booked clients into all the time ) , a resturant ( which i actually had breakfast meetings in all the time - its a half decent breakfast ) , the costa coffee cafe ( reckon i spent about £50 a month easy popping in ), concerts which they held in both the main arena & exhibition hall ..

in short.. there are lots of ways i spent money all year round in there

you dont get a CHOICE on paying your council tax, and its totally unrelated as to weather ACL can survive financially at the ricoh with the club anyway..

I don't see it having the same impact, but if you're talking the principle more power to you.

You've been giving more income to ACL recently than Mr Fisher and ACL then my friend-good on you.
The people who weren't spending any money though were the main tenants, who went on a rent strike !

your most probably right.. and to be honest it only just dawned on me today.. i was even thinking it could be a good idea if we were to get the games streamed to the ricoh & we all go up their and watch them!!!!

but thats the LAST thing we would want.. as ACL would still be making match day revenue, and why should they.. they are fully to blame for this mess too.. as much as SISU

Blame cannot be apportioned equally but Coventry City Council are the main protagonist with SISU & ACL just about equally to blame for this very regrettable situation
IMHO - PUSB
