I'm sorry but weren't you all in to the idea of RB Coventry at some stage? That's worse in my opinion.
Apologies if I have you confused.

He may do things differently here, we're a totally different type of club to Newcastle

Because the sensible thing to do is watch how somebody runs their businesses, and assume they'll do the total opposite elsewhere.

I guess not then.
I'm sure we had a fairly big difference of opinion on something though. Maybe a phoenix??

I think he’s just the programmer son of a diamond mine owner who got lucky in the dot com bubble then managed to create an image that overinflated his companies TBH.
Or he wants to tarmac the pitch and have gigs there every week. Who knows, hopefully something will be written into the contract where our 10 yr agreement is upheld.

Why would he invest money in businesses that he doesn't own, and that don't make any money?
I've got a feeling that's not what made him rich.

I would have Ashley over SISU any day - SISU have made no progress in 14 years we have gone down and back to where we started - as fans been treated the worst and made homeless - get to **** SISU

I always thought Newcastle United owned St James park . But it does not its Newcastle council does. Makes me wonder if he will be interested in buying the Sky Blues or would he just be interested in renting to us.
I hope he does buy us and bring the club and stadium together but not holding my breath.

He will I'm sure. Who wouldn't if they could afford it ?

Why wouldn't Ashley just raise the rent to point that we couldn't pay forcing the sale of the club at a discount? He's a hard-nosed bastard after all! I just see this leading to further stand-offs and unpleasant circumstances.

I believe he can if he gets the stadium as that 10 year rental contract we had with Wasps becomes invalid and reasons why SISU and CCFC are unsettled by where we be playing next. Could be reason why EFL is sympathising with us.

Yep exactly this. Sisu will be pissed if they don't get the stadium as they will finally realize they will never get it. Ashley will raise the rent to try and force Sisu to sell and they will probably play hardball again and we'll be sharing with Walsall this time. I really can't see this ending well if Ashley only buys the stadium. I think the EFL will eventually say enough is enough aswell.

He'd have to wait another 8 years.

Why's that then? The business has tanked and failed so any current agreement is likely dead in the water with it. I think all bets are off around what might or might not happen next. Maybe the freehold dictates that the stadium remains but who knows that for sure...

No it hasn’t. It’s being sold as a going concern. The lease still stands as an asset unless the council claw it back, which they’ve said they’re not doing.

I believe the administrator will decide on those things at a later date. It depends what a buyer is prepared to pay for after due diligence is complete and contracts of sale have been drawn up etc...

There’s a law in place that stops landlords raising rents (beyond a reasonable amount such as inflation) to settled businesses.
Even after 8 years the Landlord has to have a good reason to inflate rent above “reasonable”
The Landlord in this case would be the 250 year leaseholder.

No we have a agreed lease fixed for a set period - if it expires it’s re-negotiated

But the landlord can’t just throw any figure in, hence the 54 act.

he doesn’t have to renew!

I’ve no idea if the sublease has a ‘54 exemption - otherwise it’s down to security of Tenure. Not easy to evict

The bloke is a scavenger, waiting until his prey is close to death before pouncing, and then stripping it of all of its dispensable parts (most often the staff). He won't be interested in buying CCFC from Otium unless we go into administration and he can get it on the cheap.
I'd love Sisu to up the amount they spend on the team, etc, but don't expect (C)Ashley to be any better.
I hope i am proved wrong.
