Eviction notice (14 Viewers)

The Council refers to the however many councillors there are in the room. We had this discussion before and I know you think it’s pedantic (and it is) but it implies that the councillors have admitted talks with Wasps which several have been explicit in denying. Ridley knows this and was hoping for the reaction he got. Labour were stupid to give him that reaction no doubt and should have just let the debate happen but seem to be worried about it being reported as “councillors admit they had talks because they accepted the debate”. As I say the whole thing is fucked and neither side is playing with a straight bat here.

Yes, it is saying "Did the council have talks" which includes all of the councillors and mayor rather than listing individuals.

They can enter the debate and say "we confirm again that nobody at all had any talks with anybody"

Again pedantry but that seems to be the order of the day in these meetings but IIRC it said something like “following the admission the council had talks”.

But yeah I agree. Just take the debate. Duggins is an idiot though.

Can someone reword “why are you acting such a nob?” In a format appropriate for prime time BBC radio? Cheers.


You're being a bit of a dick aren't you.

Missed a load of this . Who's said what and what changed?

Nothing really. Ridley wanted a debate about the Wasps bailout that didn’t happen and implied “the council” had admitted involvement. Labour and Lord Mayor said they wanted the wording changed. Tories walked out of council chamber.

Meanwhile everyone says don’t worry about being evicted. And King EFL approval likely in the next week.

(not sure what you missed)

Have we signed this mini deal as I read through we're alright now to May?
Or is it something else like soothing word's spoken?

And all the time I imagine City and Swansea fans hold onto their money, rather than gambling on buying tickets for another game in possible jeopardy . Can’t be good for the CCFC economy this coupled with the merchandise operation going tits up just before Christmas.
we’re cursed I tell thee

Maton saying the council had no influence and is the same as a city fan.

Strange, would the council not have to be involved to transfer the lease?

Influence in what? The eviction?

I’ve said before I’m not sure what any clause would actually look like.

Swain mentioned a full inquiry into the stadium sales and Maton wanted absolutely nothing to do with it. Started rambling on about everything and anything else. Is there a petition thing that when it gets to a certain number has to be debated with the council? I think every fan pretty much would welcome a proper inquiry into the councils behaviour.

There was a petition but duggins closed it down.

Stand outside the CBS a couple of games and you’d approach that?

How do you prove the signatures are from Coventry residents?
"We will only consider e-petitions that are hosted on its website. "

Great wording on the council website, but I presume they are saying they will only consider petitions hosted on the council's own website so it means creating an account. Then they validate accounts/signatories against their own residents database.

15000 signatures just for Maton to refuse it.

It's only 10K to call an officer to account and require they provide evidence. Don't go digital and I'm sure if you got 10,000 signatures and gave it to Cllr Ridley or another Cov fan in CCC, they could ensure it got progressed. And make Duggins or Reeves the challenged, any action they take to close it down would be seen as wrongdoing.
