Delaying the autumn stadium announcement indefinitely as a mark of respect
Can't believe Boddy didn't mention his plans for commemorating the life of her majesty the queen.
Fucking prick.
Newsflash: we’re skint!
“The postponements of four out of five home games this season has had a significant impact on our cashflow,” said the CEO, speaking exclusively to CoventryLive.
“We are currently well over £1m down on the forecasts made for this stage of the season. This clearly puts the club under enormous strain and is something that we are trying extremely hard to work within. However, the impact is significant on the football club.

Well makes sense as we have had no cash flow really this season due to games called off and this situation hasn’t been budgets for so it snot rocket science, the problem has depended as the queens unfortunately timed death caused another game to be missed called off, plus we had to rent Burton which means the cup game cost us money rather than making money… we need home games on after the break and hope it doesn’t have any impact on paying bills and the players in September
We sold Hyam which would cover the shortfall

Dom Hyam was not sold in the light of the 3 postponements. Thepostponements have caused significant cash flow loss for the month of August but the sale is not connected to the cash flow issue.
To prep for the sale of Gyokeres?So if the sale was not for cash flow issues why is Boddy bleating about cash flow issues
Because he's a useless prick who's been told to lube us up ready for SISU to fuck us in Jan.So if the sale was not for cash flow issues why is Boddy bleating about cash flow issues
The comment that says 'but potentially 3 players we'd never be able to replace like for like' is equally hilarious.We should have sold Dabo hamer and Walker for £32 million when we could
Dabo
Just had a glance on the Norwich forum and they were saying how good he was and they wouldn’t mind signing him. Easy to forget how lucky we are to have him, going to be crucial to any success we have this year, he’s not even fully fit yet.www.skybluestalk.co.uk
Hold up isn't the biggest hit to cash flow and team performance that we didn't make a big sale sufficient to buy 3 or 4 players ? Who was in charge of that ?
Yes there is a "short term" income loss but a big chunk of that is guaranteed to come in anyway at some stage because it relates to season tickets. Some season ticket income was received any way.
Yes we lost short term income cashflow but equally we didn't get the "short term" expenses. Yes there was a pitch contribution but could be compensated for that.
Say a gate is down 2000 the lost income after excluding vat is under 30k. Our owners couldn't cover that short term ? Indeed couldn't cover £1m if they wanted to ??
Of course the hyam sale mitigated things, unfortunately in terms of maximising cash flow it was the wrong sale given the owners history of non finance. How boddy could say it wasn't about cash flow is disingenuous to put it mildly
Think an efl decision is up coming in terms of penalty and boddy setting the scene perhaps
It’s just nonsense. Boddy is tying himself up in knots every time he opens his mouth. Does he think fans are just stupid.

The way they run the club is an embarrassment- we’re run as a plucky lower league club in the Championship - unfortunately relegation looks inevitable this season.
Amazingly other teams have actually invested in their teams rather than standing still, who’d have thought it?Doesn’t help that at least 2 of the promoted sides look comfortable either. Good job Sunlun are so skint and useless

Well Robins is on record in saying he didn’t want to do much this transfer window and priorities were the new pitch at Ryton….
