We've always seen you as 'special'.
On a serious note, what does 'special dispensation' actually mean?

Sisu lied, I remember saying at the time that there was no way you were debt free, you just owed to Sisu rather than exterrnal.
All of our debts, including the purchse of the ground and the 26m debt we had from Mandaric, were rolled up and paid off. Apparently they can never claim the debt back, they will make money at some point in the future should they decide to sell us when we're in the PL. As they are using us as an advertising tool for their business it seems unlikely that they will sell us on in the near future.

After the constant we are debt free from Ranson I recall Fisher assuring us at the fans forum (not the last lot, the one before that) that SISU had converted all the money they'd put in to equity, seems he wasn't telling the truth that day either!

I struggle to remember any times they have told us the truth other than when they said we were moving to Northampton.....and I didn't believe them.

It means "Sisu have us over a barrel with this whole Sixfields thing so they can do what they want-ish".
We honestly have no idea. We should've had more points deducted, well we shouldn't have been allowed to transfer the GS either. Also the transfer embargo was a joke (75% of outgoing players wages, one in one out) but that's now gone. No-one knows for sure if we're following FFP but I seriously doubt it and the FL have not shown any interest in sanctioning us.

Yes we are debt free and as Hackneyfox says we have much to thank our owners for. With promotion to the Premiership a likelihood barring a catastrophic run of form, we are a saleable asset to potential buyers if the Thais want to sell.
However are you guys any nearer to returning to Cov as it is pathetic that you play over in Northampton? Good to see the fans are boycotting Sixfields but what does the future hold with these buffoons in charge? Good luck with getting your club back anyway and hate to see any team in this position

Thanks for the good luck.
The way you are playing there is no reason you can't go up as Champions.
Here is to the day when Coventry and Leicester can walk out once again as equal rivals playing in their respective cities? It's what football is about and you can't beat a good Midlands derby, they used to be ever other week!

I agree I would like to see lots of Midlands clubs up in the Premier League. Good luck on getting back up there

Nugent is taking them , he's missed 3 now.
I believe we've just broken the record for the number of penalties in the first half of the season.
hackneyfox
Well-Known Member
We haven't spent that much this season, in the main we've been getting players off the books so we can hit FFP.
I don't think you can buy penalties.

Some still do, I've only got on the bus recently.
He's finally got a winning mentality right through the team, we have good options on the bench and we press for 90 minutes.

I suggest people who actually care about this take a long look in the mirror.
Good to see Leicester fans refusing to endorse the charade of a team playing a home game in another City miles away, by observing a total boycott of this fixture.

Did look a bit empty.
Did you boycott MK Dons?
Oh no you endorsed them by taking 7000, not one of your proudest moments.
Did AFC Wimbledon fans boycott MK Dons at last season's Cup match?

Not sure that excuses you though.
How can you ask for the support of other fans, most of whom are happy to help, when you don't have any principles yourselves?
I think we all know that the invasion of MK was purely because of available tickets and logistics and nothing to do with supporting the home club. We need venues like this to show the type of support that SISU are missing from 'Home' games ! I'm hoping Notts Co will be the next one...................all change at Leicester station for a shite !

So....the fans of the club that moved think it was a good thing, but you don't.
Reminds me of when the council put a fountain at street level in the city center. A woman complained that "blind people are being put in danger" except when they talked to representatives of the blind they all agreed that it was no problem and in fact a great idea.

I refer to the poster who said I'd be happy with Leicseter playing at the Ricoh,I've already said I would be getting a dark blue shirt,Ive had a busy day today you wouldn't believe.
I take the support of a club very seriously so today I visited Grubeh Road Hospital,saw a very nice plastic surgeon who assured me even though up to now he had only performed removals,that attaching an extra digit to each of my hands shouldn't be a problem. I will need this performed to support my application to join the Quorn Hunt. One of the questions mentioned sisters I lied and said I didn't have any,however I think I can fulfill one of the other conditions. On the way there I passed a field and at least two of the inhabitants winked at me.
Going back to the Ricoh or as we prefer to call it the Arena in the Conurbation of Leicester,will I feel benefit from this move particularly from the point of catering. Out will go Balti Pies or slop in a crust as I prefer to call them in will come Melton Mowbray Pork Pies served with either Stilton or Red Leicester,Walkers Crisps washed down with a frothy pint of Everards.
Certain aspects of the stadium will have to change for example songs,the Sky Blue Song and Twist and Shout will be replaced with A Hunting We Will Go and Foxy Lady and as there is ony room for one Jimi the statue of Mr Hill will have to go,its alright one of Gary L will replace him.
My brick at the ACL is on the Tommy Hutch wall this will be changed to the Gordon Banks Wall
The ashes of departed Coventry fans in the garden of rememberance will not be touched,after all I think they have suffered enough and cried enough tears dont you? You can pay your respects to them on the way to your new ground dont concern yourselves we will look after them.
Anyway me ducks (see I'm picking up the lingo)got to go now,on the pull:thinking about:Now where was that field
