That's not an exhaustive list OSB, but the point they've raised on the granting of the original PP being based on conditions around Green Belt land CCFC is interesting. I'm going to have to and pick through the original application to see what it contained. Building on green belt already has...

It would also make sense for CCFC to have the decision delayed until post June 2017 when the current agreement expires.

Sadly, I suspect you're correct.

They've asked the Planning Department to facilitate it. They've made public record of their intention to remain and their intention to keep the Academy. Maybe this will be a promise they'll keep and maybe they should remove or edit 'The Way Forward' on the club's website while they're at it

http://www.ccfc.co.uk/documents/reference-number144-3213645.pdf Having had one read, some merit to this

Finally. The club have stepped up and lodged a formal planning objection. http://www.ccfc.co.uk/documents/reference-number144-3213645.pdf

I think that's unlikely, but given your bias, I'm sure it's the first and only thing that came to mind for you.

I don't know, I don't care and I don't know why it's relevant. The article I just linked you to does say they have a £12.3m cash balance, but I really don't care past that.

Knowing you Grendel, you're trying to pick holes in what I said. http://www.coventrytelegraph.net/news/coventry-news/new-wasps-rfc-training-centre-10380071 Armstrong:“That’s probably going to be a £7m investment. We are looking at ways of financing that through sponsorship.” So, before you...

As pointed out by @armybike in my twitter discussion with Les Reid, even he thinks it could end up in court. The unfortunate thing is there is no planning reason for the application to be rejected. Lots of emotional reasons, yes but in terms of planning law alone, no. Les suggested that material...

It was actually Les Reid who broke this news - so doesn't exactly match up with the conspiracy that it's all part of a 'plot' given Les' leanings in this matter. Also, permission hasn't actually been granted yet, it's still got to go to committee (although this will be a formality most likely)...

Be still my beating heart

Ryan Haynes? You mean the Ginger Cafu? ;)

So everyone is moaning, in every form of media. Doesn't that tell you something Torch? Where there is a vacuum of good news, people will moan. Can you bring us something positive to cheer us all up?

I don't have a problem with a 30 year old utility player leaving who has one year left on his contract. I do have a problem with the fact we've let a player go (along with the 10 or 11 others that have already left) with such a short timeframe between now and when the season starts. By the close...

Grendel in insight shock........I need a lie down.

The plan has already been published. http://www.ccfc.co.uk/news/article/the-way-forward-coventry-city-020115-2177171.aspx How about we ask him why the article 'The Way Forward' is still on the club's website given that it's clear they're not bothering with all of what they said they'd do?

Cavan - please go back and read my post. At what point did I say we'd have better players? We've barely got a squad and we're not exactly blessed with news about new signings are we?

It matters if we're bottom of the league after 5 games. You wouldn't be able to move on here for people moaning

The depressing thing is that we're clearly putting offers in for free agents and they're waiting to see if anything better comes along. The season starts in less than 2 weeks and by the time the transfer window shuts, we'd have played more than 10% of our league season. There are 15 points up...
