There's a long article about the Skyblues' exile in Northampton in a quite big German football magazine, called "11 Freunde" (11 friends)...
Unfortunately, there's no online version of the article.
If someone's interested, I'll post a translation here, when I got some time.

Yeah, they must all be stuck in the lower leagues or close to insolvency.

Yes, it's that magazine and no, not that article.
The one I mean is in the current print issue, which will be released next week. You get it earlier as a subscriber and of course they do not publish the new articles online same time as well.

I guess they are worried that Sisu may have taken their record in respect of destroying Coventry.

Will part of it translate into..

''sisu, an offshore hedge fund, has managed to do to the Coventry Gas works site, what the Luftwaffe tried to do on more than one occasion in the 1940's, and turn the area in to a vacuum of life''
