Your confidence perceives you..
The Majority of us - City fans - want Coventry City to play in Coventry. We do not think that Sixfields is like Highfield Road as you once said. It is looking less & less likely that a new stadium will be built. There are no plans, no finance ( we would have heard if they had backers ), no land purchase and no-one has been invited to tender for the building of the "Pie in the Sky" stadium. Sandra Garlick is only concerned about the empty sky blue coloured seats camouflaging the players..... Nuff said.

There is no new stadium. There is no proof of a new stadium.
You have to see there is no evidence whatsoever.
If it was built not in Coventry many would not go. So they would lose the thing they are trying to create revenue.

Exactly.
At the moment CCFC is playing in Northampton with no plan to return.
Even if I believed that they are serious in building a new stadium (which im not) there is still no plan. All they have is an IDEA that they want to build a new ground. That isn't a plan.

Our hapless hedge fund is funding CCFC for x amount of millions a year with investors money. Then taking a portion back and paying the investors a return in the form of interest ( the investors are in effect paying themselves interest ), SISU then take some of the investors money as management fees for themselves. It is very like a " Ponzi scheme ". They have to keep the investors in ARVO happy, and so they say they have an exciting plan for a new stadium and will win a JR against CCC. Everyone is delighted. In the meantime they hope that something positive will happen and they will earn some money somewhere ( not necessarily here ) and be able to restock ARVO.

If what you're stating is correct, how do you know that?
I know what I know is FACT (will not divulge my sources), let's just wait and see when it's announced!
Always assuming a deal can't be done for the Ricoh even though the door is firmly shut, although not yet locked!

Already approaches being made but not with CCC.
Signed 'Confidentiality Clauses' do prevent reliable information coming out.

I'll decide they haven't considering every time either Fisher or Labovitch accuses someone of lying it's utter bullshit. See Simon Gilbert about Labovitch's "misquote" accusation. It's their game to do character assassination, frankly now any time they say they've been hard done by I assume they're lying.
Fish on Fridays ,no not Marilion.
Please don't miss quote me, otherwise I might sue! LOL!

Explain to us all how the team, and I mean those players on the field and the manager (that you only care about) really want to play outside of Coventry.
...No not Sisu RFC, It's CCFC we are talking about, the players maybe do want an end to this needless distraction, so they can gain the support they truely deserve.
Explain why you are so concerned with the profits of a hedge fund.
...No not Sisu RFC, Its CCFC we want to see financially viable, and not loaded with debt for a stadium to gain pie money.
Explain why you do not wish that the majority of fans needs are met by the club, by playing in Coventry.
...No not Sisu RFC, It's CCFC we all want to support but are prevented from by the actions of a hedge fund.
Everything you say RFC just demonstrates that the clubs future as seen from your perspective is a very bleak future for many, many, CCFC fans...
...and therefore a very bleak future for CCFC the team, manager, and players, that are your sole concern.

I didn't intend to misquote you, I am just concerned about some of the things that are happening here.
The current situation is either:
A) Some of the local authorities have lied in response to FOI requests, a very serious crime.
B) Fisher and Labovitch have lied.
I'm just trying to establish who is the liar.

I honestly think that SISU did plan to build a stadium.
The problem is they knew nothing about football and nothing about building something like a stadium. I think their plan was to take us to the Prem and cash in. They did invest to do this........but had the wrong people in charge to do so. Then when they decided to build a stadium they found out how expensive it is. They found out it isn't easy either. And they have also found out that football clubs outside the prem don't have much value to them. They are money pits. They also know there is nowhere in Coventry that they could build one. And they have found out that if it is outside Coventry many of us won't go.
Maybe their best idea (or so they thought) was the Bees stadium. Put some new stands in there. And they would also get rent from the Bees. But no chance of getting permission......and would a speedway track fit on the outside of a football pitch
So they know they would lose even more money building a stadium for a football club which has no value. So stuck with a football club that owes them millions that has no value. How can they make money? 'Hey that Ricoh arena must be worth a few pence.....lets try a bit of litigation. It normally works'

There aren't even these big sites available locally anyway.
That only leaves undeveloped land, and I will put my neck on the line here and say there is zero chance of getting a football stadium built on greenbelt land.

I agree, I just enjoy trying to get an answer from our friend RFC who likes to pop in and out. It wouldn't completely surprise me if they did buy some land though, and they don't need to speak to councils first to do that. I just think they might buy some to try and drag the game out a bit more, and they could always sell it later, may even make some money on it.
