Unless something has been agreed today, I'm not sure there's anything in it. Let's hope it's true.

There is one stumbling block currently to a return which they are arguing about. Fingers crossed they sort it out. But currently not sorted.

If there is one issue I think pitch maintenance could be it.

Even so, if people have no concrete evidence or what not, they shouldn’t go getting fans’ hopes up.

I never understand why people will sit and give ridiculous hints about things they know or possibly know as like a 'tease'. If you know something, just say it. The likelihood is 99% of people who say they know something, actually know sweet FA. Better Days on here seems to be the exception. And to be fair, from this summer that Sunny off the Facebook group has been accurate.

They love having their egos stroked by people treating them like they’re important.

Also see how annoyed they’ll get if anyone dares to cast doubt on whether they have info or not.

It’s like a weatherman saying; ‘There’s a 50% chance of rain today’.

He’s basically saying it might rain or it might not. Thanks m8. Fucking invaluable info.

On Twitter it will look like this:

🌧

He basically said let’s not be frightened of not getting a Ricoh deal done and that having a good surface will allow us to flourish.

I may have got the paraphrasing wrong, but it’s on the Cov Tel site

A nice enough pitch can be maintained at the Ricoh! The trick is to actually treat and maintain it.

Tbh, fuck PSB group SPIRIT OF 87 etc.

They dont know anything. 3 people i trust with rumours that 90% of the time dont let us down.

That is @better days
John Dawkins
Sunny that has made the facebook post. He had pics with Hamer and Dacosta in his gaff and knew about it before anyone else.

These 3 clearly have links with the club one way or another. And to me, if hes posting that, i will start to believe.


Pretty sure @AFCCOVENTRY gets info n all doesnt he?

Was told by a wasps fan who reckons they know someone in the wasps setup that a 3yr deal close / agreed with higher rent but we get revenues and better pitch care.

Could be bollocks but he is a blue nose who I know does watch the scum egg chasing tossers so other than toying with my hopes of a return has nothing else to gain

If true, this may get me shot down but id tell them to fuckoff. Should be 5 years at least. 10 ideally. 3 years kicks the can down the road

We’re in a really tight spot whatever happens. But agreeing to a higher rent contract when we could be back in L1 next season seems an unlikely risk for the club to take.

SISU to pay higher rent after leaving for the lower rent they paid ?

I would say no chance in a million years that is even close to true

I don't think they'll do something that would put them in a worse position than when we were at St. Andrews. There will be many different things considered such as sponsorship (stadium and otherwise), increased crowds, etc. that will be taken into consideration (not forgetting the state of the pitch).

I read this very positively. If it just one stumbling block and it is just the pitch, that doesn't seem insurmountable.
