I guess the club shop staff may have been told to get ready and pack things so would know before us

Not that im saying it's true though!

More likely to mean they're closing the shop because it makes a loss or the shop rent is going up.

Rumours as we have seen are not reliable. Who would of told him down the club shop? And why would they know any more than us anyway?

Again nothing will happen till the 590k is paid so it's bs really.

I disagree with that!

Someone told me in the Club shop that the new Away Shirt would be in White and then it was a rumour, but it turned out to be correct.

Exactly my point!

Besides white and black there's not many colours to choose from is there. Very easy to guess a football kit colour. There's hardly a lot of different colours through the leagues.

all the colours of the rainbow together are white.

He's joking though isn't he? there is every reason to believe the club shop would know the colour of a kit before it's announced, there is no reason to believe they would know we were going back to the ricoh.

I was talking about light because a rainbow is light, there is no non light based rainbow. Anyway not really something we need to debate is it?

It is going off tangent somewhat.

My point was that the guy said the kit would be white and I'm saying that besides white there's hardly a lot of other colours to pick from. Very easy to just have a guess and get it right, so just because the bloke said it and he got it right doesn't necessarily mean the club shop have the lowdown on all that's happening at Coventry City FC.

Can't tell if you're joking. An away shirt to a deal for the Ricoh is a bit different tbf

Even if it does come true though Robo, it doesn't mean the person hasn't simply guessed.

My next door neighbours lad is in the CCFC academy (13s). He went to the Nuneaton friendly with his lad and a certain first teamers dad(won't mention names) and he said a rent deal has been agreed, was due to be signed privately and revealed on or after 7th August. Believe me or not but its fairly reliable.

Does the shop or Conors dad add any more weight than from Fisher plus one I heard ,bar the timeframe has slipped 4 weeks .

If this was hush hush signed In private seems too many people are In the know.

Like I have said before, I have a member of family working for the club.
They have now left employment with the club and been employed by the Ricoh complex (he decided he had better job security with them). His wages have not changed, or terms of contract other than the employer. He has been employed to keep the Ricoh pitch up to league standard.

This is NOT new news, this happened over a year ago. What I can say is that the pitch is ready to go with no notice, it has been kept ready to go for our return. But he has heard nothing about a return being signed for on the 7th, as far as he is concerned talks might be happening but the grounds keepers have not heard anything to back this up.

I hope he is being kept in the dark and as the pitch is up to league standard he does not need to be informed. But all the info he has gave me in the past has been correct.

I hardly ever post on here, but if you check back I have never told lies.

I wish we were back for the start of the season, but I can't see it. From the tone he uses I don't see us being back within the next couple of months.

Hope i am wrong PUSB

There is a good chance that something is happening.

The last comment from SISU didn't mention continuing with litigation. And a continuation of the JR looks fruitless and expensive. The money due will be decided on in just over a week. A return for our club should be best for everyone involved other than Northampton.

All this depends on Joy giving up on her aim whilst saving face and not demanding too much. These three points make me think no deal has been done

Because he isn't like RFC. He is calling you morbidly obese by suggesting you need at least four seats. Or can't you see an insult when you get one?

I've heard they haven't been paying the rent on the Shop, in an attempt to ruin the Gallagher business park, forcing them to go bankrupt to buy them cheap in a fire sale of assets. They are also claiming they want a share of the rent from other revenues on the site such as Argos and McDonald's, as the ccfc shop brings literally dozens of people to the area every week.

I would think there are 2 authority bodies who will at the very least been primed about a change and that is West Midlands and Northampton police services, with the big kick-off less than a fortnight away I am certain they would both know, we need a spy in their respective camps.
