It'll be a revelation for them seeing colour television on the big screen

V odd. This DA Capital firm don’t seem to particularly exist - there’s a website but the Company is dormant and has been since inception. Robert Tidmarsh, rather impressively, managed to go from a customer service representative at Thomas Cook to brokering million-pound football investment deals. Can’t be arsed to look into the other one.

Something clearly dodgy happening.

Any advantage of switching the shares out and then back again?

Won’t claim to be an expert but no reason I could think of, certainly not that would be above board.

Unless you have money to throw away I can’t see why you would bother buying a club at this level it must be far more hassle than it’s worth.

you either go big or go home - if you have enough to make them a league club in say 5 years, then maybe, but small change will always get eaten up = It is a bit like the argument for a championship owner is only worth it if they get promoted

Ground sharing with barwell.

Are their stadium owners wanting to sell it for development or something?

I would think so most of the area nearby has been done already, shame when the ground was built they didn’t put a thing in that stops it being anything else.

Lost on penalties after drawing 2-2 quite a lively game with the attendance given as 882, we were late getting in as there were long queues at the turnstiles

only at the CBS could you have long queues to get in and miss the kick off for a crowd of 882

For it's size, Nuneaton have been rubbish for about 20 years.
Mansfield, Carlisle, Shrewsbury, Tamworth are all examples towns with a lower population than Nuneaton that have much better football clubs.

I imagine a new club will be born in the coming days/weeks. (again)

It’s a big town full of people who follow other teams as they have moved to the area. Loads of our fans here and lots to Villa fans, I thought they never tried to attract fans of other clubs enough with things like different kick off times

When they moved to Barwell I thought they might have gone to the Pingles (if that’s to standard). I can’t see they starting again this time previous times they had a ground.

Plenty of people in Nuneaton are Nuneaton born and bread. But yes, the club have never attracted locals enough.

88,000 people - For context the biggest place never to have had a league side is Wakefield with a population of 109,000

It’s going to be a big old place to not have a football team

I just don’t see how - starting a Phoenix club outside of the town just won’t work

What a white elephant Liberty Way will be now

Maybe they can come to a deal with Old Ed's rugby club. Speaking of which, are Nuneaton RFC out of business now as well?

No, and they've won their last seven games and sit second in their league.
