preferred bidder is......

OTIUM LTD.... part of sisu surprise sur fecking prise

 

[skyblueinBaku]

Please tell me that this is a wind up.

 

[rob9872]

Brilliant half a million quid to Appleton, 10 point deduction, promotion derailed and months wasted of time and effort to tell us what we all knew would happen.

Thanks PA now take your cheque and fook off!

 

[skyblueinBaku]

I thought that Otium was being wound up.

 

[jon92]

Where u hear this?

 

[skybluejelly]

Do we get to know how much they bid

 

[rob9872]

£1 seems to be the going rate

 

[Moscowskyblue]

if its correct then goodbye

if that is the case then i am no longer interested in their club, my club for 50 years and therefore that is not something i say lightly

 

[jon92]

He made up his mind quick considering he said it would take awhile

 

[jon92]

Can't see this being true as les reid has not said anything about it he is normally the first place for information

 

[rob9872]

He made his mind up months ago when they appointed him, he just had to wait for their pr vehicles to ensure he said and did the appropriate things. Hopefully no other football jobs will come his way now after this debacle.

 

[1ccfc1987]

ok, and now for round two a lenghtly court battle

 

[theferret]

League pressure because of fixtures forced the quick announcement I guess. We knew this would happen. We now can only hope that one of the interested parties makes a direct approach. It's our only hope really.

It has been pretty obvious, the way Fisher has been so sure that he will be in control of the club too.

And myself. Either sisu piss off or I ain't going anymore. Simples!!!!!

 

[sw88]

Just on Free radio! This was so predictable, but so the wrong decision!

Paul Appleton. You fail us fans!

As if they are successful in buying us out, we'll be out of admin, therefore the rent free offer will have expired, ACL will not work with SISU, OTIUM are SISU, so we're no further forward!!!!!!!

Check his Twitter now for the good news.

The administrator for the part of Coventry City which is in administration has said the bid put forward by Otium Entertainment Group Limited was 'substantially more' than the three other offers received.
The company is connected to Sisu, who took over the Sky Blues in 2007.

The bid from Otium Entertainment Group Limited was substantially more than any of the other three bids received
and was the bid which gave the greatest return to the unsecured, non-connected creditors of CCFC Limited by a considerable margin.

[skyblueinBaku]

Just lost my job, and now it looks as though I'm about to lose my football club. Life can be a real pain in the arse sometimes.

 

[jon92]

Les reid just posted it now a statement coming soon

 

[ajsccfc]

Was anyone seriously expecting the result to be any different?

Who are the "unsecured, non-connected creditors" ?

 

[bigfatronssba]

That's pretty much it for me now

Professional football in Coventry Rip 1883-2013

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

I'm out. Now what?? Appleton thank you so much

 

[mark82]

Fuck it. Fuck SISU. Fuck Tim Fisher. Fuck Paul Appleton. I'm not travelling to Walsall and I hope no other football league team agrees to let these wankers move our club out of Coventry.

 

[RoboCCFC90]

This is absolutely no surprise and expected in truth..

 

[ccfcmad1]

Clubs finished heartbreaking it been emotinal guys but think ive had it now!

 

[Nick]

Is there nobody above Appleton who could look at the actions?

[skybluelee]

No surprise whatsoever. Thank you, Paul Appleton. My beloved Sky Blues now officially dead.

You absolute c*nt.

 

[kg82]

What a twat.

 

[RoboCCFC90]

As much as expected it's probably the right decision from an Administrator I don't think if it had been Joe Bloggs the outcome would have been different.

Mind you I am feckin gutted..

 

[Houdi]

This was always going to be the result though.SISU can afford to pay off all the debts,since they were mainly debts to themselves.If Haskell had matched their offer,all he would have done is give SISU circa £50 million and he still wouldn't have owned the playing assets.This was always the easy bit for SISU the hard bit follows.They still have to convince the league of their future plans on the back of at least 3 more years of virtually no income.This still has a long way to run.

 

[Hastingsskyblue]

Well thats it - I knew this is what was going to happen so had resigned myself to losing my Football Club - Goodbye Sky Blues, this will be my last post and I will not go to any Coventry matches (home or away) while Sisu or anyone connected with them is in charge - Lost all faith in Football now what a Joke

Going to watch synchronised swimming instead - at least that is still well run

And Football League can p*ss off also they could run a p*ss up in a brewery

By everyone
