Definitely, it was more just explaining what it was.

Have wasps replied to the letter in October do we know?

Ex trust chairman not looking overly impressed either

Who is Lies Reid?

Have wasps replied to the letter in October do we know?

Last statement from Eastwood I remember was this one:

Despite significant progress being made in the discussions, we have unfortunately been unable to reach an agreement with the owners which, putting aside the complaint to the European Commission, would deliver the fundamental principle that there would be no further proceedings about the ownership of the Ricoh Arena.

Who is Lies Reid?

Tim Kalns

 

[Nick]

Great to see the Sky Blue Trust communications officer articulating his objections in a mature and professional manner

Have they published the minutes about why he was sacked off from the Trust?

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Producer just phoned I’ll be on at 4.40 on phil uptons show

Who is Tim Kalns?
Ignore that. Grendel has answered below...

 

[Grendel]

Who is Lies Reid?

He is Tim Kalns. Former secretary of Cov Utd ex unelected trust board member and a close friend of Dave Johnson - created a sky blue Phoenix group and no doubt still doing trust communications through his absurd parody accounts

 

[SlowerThanPlatt]

And to top it all off it’s not some bored teenager trying to get reactions it’s a 65 year old man

Probably just frustrated that he can no longer get an erection then...

Are we to understand that this was the trust/Wasps conversation -
Trust: “why the need for the indemnity clause?”
Wasps: that’s commercially sensitive
Trust: ah - no worries, SISU DROP THE LEGALS!!!

Thats pretty much how it went.

Oh dear.

This guy is meant to be a PR expert.

 

[SkyBlueDom26]

'pretends to be shocked'

 

[SlowerThanPlatt]

I assume Neil is another of Tim Kalns parody accounts

Yes

I do find it odd that if people have read the statement they still find it difficult to understand the underlying sentiment i.e. all sides have to be called out and find a way forward.

I don't think Les Reid's approach has helped us in this regard mind you (although it has started discussion)

That’s how I saw it too. At least he’s a fan and attends games I suppose. It’s his article and our statement is part of it and shown in full

 

[Briles]

I think we need to maintain focus here. Are we looking at whats best for CCFC or just targeting the trust and point scoring?

Lets try and stay focused on promoting our statement rather than trying to make them look stupid. They can do that themselves. It will sort of undermine our stance with all the mud slinging.

LOL JOKES- Burn them all.

We didn’t call out all parties. The council got away with it a little

 

[Dean1961]

I wish Italia was around he would still back the insects ooops sorry he still does on facebook...lol

To be honest, I emailed Duggins and they’ve effectively washed their hands of it. Going forward the council aren’t players in this.

it’s a deal between 2 private companies

 

[Liquid Gold]

Indemnity is being talked about in the local media. We've already achieved something that has seemed impossible since June.

CCC will be players in this if the EU state aid regulations have been breached
and it will then be between two parties,CCC and Wasps
CCFC have no part in any of that

Great, will listen in - feels like we have some momentum . We also need somebody to be on Friday's CWR phone-in to follow on from you two weeks ago and me last week. Any volunteers to put the case again?

 

[Nick]

Exactly, CWR were saying it didn't exist and nothing in CET about it.

That’s not our problem as you’ve pointed out. We’ve just got to get the club back to Coventry and moving forward.

of course if we can get the clause dropped A SISU better not bollock it up

 

[Nick]

Neil seems to be a disaster every time he says things.

 

[Pete in Portugal]

Exactly. As much as CCC might want to wash their hands of it, this will not be an option if the European Commission decides that state aid regulations have been breached. Does anyone have any information on when the EC investigation into the CCFC complaint is likely to be completed?

 

[Nick]

Maybe Duggins can be asked why he was more bothered about an Aldi closing than he was the football club going?

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

That’s not our problem as you’ve pointed out. We’ve just got to get the club back to Coventry and moving forward.

Again that’s not in our remit is it? If it was removed and some other reason was found and this wasn’t legitimate then all would know which organisation was stopping us playing at the Ricoh. Think the pitch may be an issue but again what can we do about that?

Have emailed mep’s to ask about this and if the complaint can be pushed under the carpet
