I look forward to the Club statement on the second Early Day Motion. As Mr Appleton is also named perhaps he would like to make a statement too. What did happen to the Club's assets shown in the accounts in June 2012?

Club statement on Parliamentary Early Day Motion and subsequent amendments
On Tuesday, Jim Cunningham MP tabled an Early Day Motion in Parliament calling for an urgent meeting to be convened between the club, ACL, Coventry City Council and the Football League.
We appreciate the genuine concern about the current situation felt by Mr Cunningham and his fellow Coventry MP, Geoffrey Robinson, who sponsored the motion, and indeed that felt by many of their constituents.
The Rt. Hon. Bob Ainsworth MP subsequently submitted an amendment to this motion saying inter alia that the club's owner has no viable plan or intention to return to the Coventry area and had put itself into administration as part of a deliberate strategy developed over time to defraud its creditors.
These statements have no foundation whatsoever in fact and are grossly defamatory.
If Mr Ainsworth genuinely believes his statements to be true, we respectfully invite him to repeat them outside Parliament and not to hide behind parliamentary privilege.
If he is not prepared to do this, we can only conclude that he does not in fact believe them to be true, in which case he should immediately withdraw them.

I dont get this 'the accounts are a mess' scenario. They have owned the club for what 6 years? So in 6 years they havent organised the accounts at all......well that doesnt fit with the shrewd intelligent investors that are SISU.

I thought all accounts wre checked and audited
BDO the auditors, will not release any details even to Mr Appleton.
I smell fish!

Administrator has power to demand the information under the Insolvency Act and if not received to go to court to get it. It would be very hard for the auditors to with hold information from an administrator. Advice from ICAEW to the auditors would be to provide the information.
well said sisu. i think ainsworth was acting in a disgusting manner . . . just an attempt to keep the fans turning against their own club. parliamentary privilege does not mean an m.p can lie. i am making an official complaint to the parliamentary ombudsman and will complain of ainsworth lying. i also believe as he did lie privilege is automatically refused. naming footballers taking out super injunctions like john hemming mp did is fine .. but you can use privilege to defame, slander and libel. you can only reveal truth and be protected
Why on earth would Bob Ainsworth want to turn fans against their own club . What he has said is what most of us think! I say most of us because some think that sisu are here for the football. Typical sisu they tread on everybody wherever they go ,use their struggling situation against them and as a last resort , haul them of to court ! Get these disgusting ruthless people out of our city and give me my football team back!
