Course he's the council
Now before I go on I’m delighted for this kit man that he is still in a job especially at this time of the year. However, he’s given an impression that London wasps are returning to the area as he is effectively the old training ground caretaker. Not sure he should be doing this….
I mean, he’s not. The council are the councillors technically, colloquially it’s everyone who works for Coventry City Council. So Duggins can legitimately say it’s not been considered by the council and Gilbert can say the council did it. And both can be right. Isn’t language wonderful?
What’s not up for debate it seems is that it wasn’t taxpayer money being suggested, but Reeves introducing third parties. Which is not the angle Gilbert is going for.
But was it, nobody knows what they have been up to. Do they not have to have audited accounts each year ?? They will because them and Gilbert have been beating that drum for a while, but what taxpayers money? If anything it was Hottingers money.
Sorry mate, couldn't read that.
Totally believe it!
Is there no way you could get info like this to Gilbert?... then what he does with it/how much he believes he can dig is up to him??
Shocking yet not surprising.
So he is actively working against the interests of the club and SISU.
Basically doesn’t want CCFC owning the stadium.
Or local journos fudging facts for clicks. Take your pick.
The Chief Exec becomes “the council” which he’s not, he’s Chief exec of Coventry City Council. A third party being introduced becomes “council bailout” because that’s the story angle he’s been working with TWW and the like.
Yep.
As i said when admin was announced at twat oclock 3 days after it SHOULD have been announced, it was pushed through with the preferred bidder exclusivity shit for Ashley as Reeves and co found out that Sisu DID have the cash to take on the stadium with this 51% investor
Council (disguised as ACL) shat themselves knowing sisu could finally get their paws on the ground and there was no way they would allow that
After four hours, this is the best you can come up with?

I’ve got some Biff and Kipper books my youngest has grown out of if that helps?
Did you miss the match funding bit?? They will because them and Gilbert have been beating that drum for a while, but what taxpayers money? If anything it was Hottingers money.
So why didn’t Sisu bid?
Because Admin was widely expected. From all interested parties.
Then all of a sudden, open admin wasnt an option.
As i said at the time, ACL/Councils one last fuck you to the club
Did you miss the match funding bit?
Did they also tip off NEC or just Ashley?
A club that has to sell players for profit (or assets) in order to compete at a level that is beyond its income.Whats a selling club exactly?

The NEC wasnt ever really a goer i heard
Can you imagine Mike Ashley meekly agreeing to talk to who he's told to, as well?If what they want is for the club to prosper but not SISU then you wouldn't bar Big Mike from trying to get the club as well as the ground.

Exactly. He's not going to just say he won't deal with somebody, he's not that kind of personality is he.Likewise if he's pledging serious investment into the arena and the city, he can simply say 'fine I'll take my money elsewhere' if the Council overstep their mark.
Not sure it was an ITK but I picked it up from media possibly CWR,think suggested as a bit of counter bidding at which point NEC dropped out.I thought someone on here said they were outbid by Ashley, though I’ve lost track of who is ITK.
Still seems to me that the problem here is Sisu wanted to wait in the hope there weren’t others buyers and there were.
Or is the accusation he’s been told not to partner with Sisu? But why would he?
@Nick May have been right all along
Murmurings that Richardson will still be involved after Ashleys bid
Maybe we havent seen the end of the insects

Just remember people said it was a conspiracy when I said the trust were working with wasps with Hoffman...
