Add on the extra rates we were paying for ACL unknowingly. Theres a few hundred grand.

Too expensive - so SISU actually did a good thing withholding payment in an effort to reduce having been fekked over by the council. We had already paid more in rent than Wasps paid for the stadium. Hoffman's consortium would want us to be self sufficient so if the rent deal can be sorted then we'd be in no better position with new owners unless an unlikely billionaire takes over. Is it not time to turn up the heat on the other parties as per this thread ideas? All our fan base know is blind hatred for SISU. I wont forget what they did, but only saying SISU out will achieve exactly the same as it has for the past number of years.

I think Notts Forest were paying £50k per season plus match costs, but then Nottinghamshire Council see the benefits of having a football team in the City and all the potential money that will be spent from both home and away fans to local businesses, car parking etc

Don't forget the bonus of 0% ownership upon completion of the lease. A whopping £65 million for precisely fuck all.

To be fair they did offer us the F&B money, as long as we paid them £32m for it.

Was that for our matches or all events? I’m assuming just our matches.

Have you got any update on the adverts? Happy to chip in if you have more info! I might be able to help with a design depending on how much notice as well!

That’d be good. I’ll get the one done for Friday as that’s quite short notice but could do with some help with Tuesday’s.

Let me know what you want on it, what format, sizing etc and I'll see what I can do.

What's going to be on Friday?

Thanks PTG. We posted those yesterday through the Trust's account. I was looking at the Wasps one initially for Friday but it would be too difficult to read on the board when it's made bigger. Will break them down and make the artwork.

Looks like more of an excuse not to say anything bad about Wasps to be honest.

The intention is to drive a new stadium forward as it de-risks our profile - Joy Seppala - Feb 2016

"This deal would not have happened if it threatened the future of the Sky Blues or Coventry Rugby Club.” - Ann Lucas October 2014

“We effectively made a commitment to the Council when we purchased the Ricoh that Sky Blues would be at the Ricoh for as long as they wish." - Nick Eastwood, Feb 2018

WHAT HAPPENED?

These were the exact quotes

Sorry Nick, thought reply would include CJ,
Sadly, I think I know what the answer will be.... but hope I am wrong.... (and hope the content covers what it should too)

And zero income despite being the only real exposure of the stadium to the wider world.

Are you reading that from a script?
The trust's book of comebacks, in no particular order:

"What have you done?"

"At least the Trust are trying!"

"Your just a SISU apologist!"

"Why should w**ps sign a new deal whilst being sued?"

"The council done what was best for the city".

"It's all Joy and Timmys fault!"

Have I missed anything?

Yes your brain seems to be missing. How you can deduce that i am backing the trust from what I have said is mind boggling. Seems you think sisu are doing a fine job

Which you are obviously a penny short of a full house . Ironic that the back up cannot see the irony of his own comments where did I say I was pro the trust or supporting them in anything I said . Yet again people trying to divide fans .

Erm, reading your posts in this thread says it. Hence you jumped in when something was said against them.

Oh ok. I never knew that. I always thought they were the citizens. If you write "the Sky blues" into Google it comes up with CCFC news and fixtures and results. So man city being called the sky blues clearly isn't a common thing.

I know at the oasis gig LG said this song is for the real sky blues, MCFC, but I thought that was more to get a reaction that it was him calling man city the sky blues

It's another thing they have changed. Their scarf used to be light blue, white and claret and the claret has now changed to a dark blue just like ours. They are just magpies stealing from others, first it was Blue Moon which was originally sung by Crewe and then of course the Poznan

“It was dire, particularly when compared with the Wasps match which really was a fantastic sporting occasion"

Sky Blues Trust, 2014 when Wasps moved here.

Think that would work on a poster?

They have so many ‘nicknames’ for corporate purposes it’s hard to keep track. Would be easier if they renamed as UAE and PSG as Qatar
