Sorry but this has to be said to all the people who thought SISU were bluffing this is real, I am sorry because I wanted CCFC to stay in Coventry, but unfortunately the writing was on the wall..

I will finish supporting CCFC when the first game is played at Northampton.:wave:
A £1M bond to FL but no plans submitted. Well done FL.
RIP CCFC

heres something else that stands out !
So, in short, if SISU NEVER come back to Coventry, they lose their £1 million !!!
Thats bye bye club then. Why on earth would they come back ?
Gotta say, I'd be slightly concerned if I was a NTFC fan. This could well be SISU now muscling in on their staduim and the development full time !
Otium will also be required to provide a Performance Bond of £1m with The Football League as an assurance of the club’s commitment to return to the Coventry area.

We sorry the new owners couldnt resolve the issues with ACL - they never even tried!!!!
3 very clear course of action.
1.A mass protest at Football League HQ under your own banner and "Football League not fit for purpose". Will attract thousands and be all over media.
2. Complete boycott of games at our place. Just don't go. If you come and stand outside you will look stupid.
3. initiate a Pheonix club asap.

A total cop out from the FL, to be expected.

Terrible terrible news!! I can't go on Sunday afternoons even if I could swallow all my pride and principles cause I am a coventry kid and have always followed my home team.
Absolutely gutted!!
My dad said it was the beginning of the end when football became money oriented in the early 90's and has ultimately been proved correct.
Flabbergasted and so upset!!

Just as well, cause they will be all over you as well !
I really cant help but think its not just one club who maybe ended long term by this news, you lot really have got into bed with a group of people you just dont want to be associated with

Yes - by not agreeing to the terms of the CVA.

Sent my email to fl thanking them for taking my club away from its community
Thanks for your solidarity. Any more keep us posted on these sharks.

Some already tried this. And managed the 'looking stupid' part
I agree though. Think the previously mentioned form of protest (all gather at the Ricoh on the date of our first 'home' game') should now be put in place!

Didn't the lease come to an end upon entering admin? Sure I read that somewhere

Let's just wait and see what the actual terms of the deal are before jumping into anything.

At least 3 years will not be 3 years, it will be a lot longer..
£1 million "bond" will not be enough to ensure they come back
This is a franchaise simple as that, and when they start dipping their fingers into your revdevelopment plans, by loaning you the money to get it completed, expand the area etc, they will have their hands on what they want, a ready made stadium with redevelopment
They couldnt get the Ricoh, so have moved onto The Sixfields

good point, I am sure its all in the best interests of CCFC
Don't think you can really blame the Football League for it...
Provided that SISU ticked all the boxes on all the regulations that were previously stated (and presumably they have), there pretty isn't that much they could do to stop it.
Even if SISU have no real intent to build a new ground in the next few years, provided they show plans e.t.c and proof, then i guess they would have to allow it.
