It's like asking if you would prefer to be shot or stabbed.
You can shoot or stab me...I give up
Neither...its CCFC for me
SISU are the enemy - there using the club and its fans to basically steal money
Why would anyone be backing ACL/council over the club?
What money do you believe they are stealing from the masses of income the club rakes in? Who is paying the player's wages (one of the highest wage budgets in the league), who is paying the bills and the running costs of the club?
Where is the money coming from that you claim is being stolen?
Doncaster 10k rent, hull 10k rent, Coventry- hundreds of thousands rent. That okay by you?
It’s an extraordinary state of affairs but there is a new end game in sight for ACL. They now realise the only way they can continue to fleece an over exuberant rate of rent out of CCFC is to get rid of the current Coventry board that is standing up to them and refusing to be ripped off.
ACL believe that this course of action will strangle the club into administration and so force new ownership into place which they can exploit to carry on paying an over the top value. If it leads to the club going into extension and having to start again at the bottom of the pyramid then they will simply blame it all on SISU.
Don’t believe me well they are trying to charge CCFC 24m to take over all the revenue streams associated to match day takings despite the fact they won’t let them see how much those takings generate.
As for the “broken agreement” this was nothing more than an acceptance of understanding by the CCFC board of the points being put in place and if anything ACL have broke the agreement by not sending to CCFC the details on the revenue streams requested.
As anyone who has done any negotiations will know, you might often sit in a meeting and nod alog to the points being made while inside thinking they must be joking!
So that's the crux of it. You're basically backing the council to kill off the club because you hate sisu that much.
I Couldn't care less about sisu it's my football club I care about.
Doncaster 10k rent, hull 10k rent, Coventry- hundreds of thousands rent. That okay by you?
There's people on here think the rent is fine!
Spot on Moff, doesn't matter who the owners are or the level of dislike for them to me CCFC always come ahead of the council.
You compare our council with the local council here in Portmouth. They are lining up a loan of around £3m to allow Pompey to buy Fratton Park, they've justified it with the claim that having a football club brings tens of millions into the local economy each year. The council need to realise that if they let this reach the conclusion it seems to be heading for, forcing SISU out and folding the club, it's not just SISU that will suffer. In fact it's likely SISU will just gloss over it and move over while fans and local companies that rely on CCFC will be left devastated.
This thread is right
We all our own views and thoughts and think we know all the facts but in simple terms e are either SISU or ACL/Council.
Hedge fund v the people of Coventry (if I have to spell that out: the council are elected by and accountable to the people of Coventry and subject to strict controls, audits and duties of care)
It really is that simple, but this thread explains to me why so many working people are capitalists. Clueless buffoons.
SISU are all we've got but I think we might be better off going out of existence and starting again than being dragged through the gutter by the thoroughly rabid owners.
