    Lost pubs of Coventry

    We used to get the Number 2 in that went around Broadgate and dropped off by Owen Owen. Starting from outside Owen Owen, cross Trinity Street, down the lane that goes towards Poole Meadow. I think there was a Jewelers at the top? About 2/3rds down on the right side. Seem to remember a shop...

    Israel

    Interesting, but you are looking at it back to front. First you need to consider what Hamas's end game is, then look at what is happening and see how that fits in.

    "Protest" Scarves

    The best impact would be if they had the numbers on them, 34, and were in the ground.

    Ccc/acl/higgs/ sisu saga

    The lease is their main asset, is it transferable? Presumably it would if it could be sold to the highest bidder. Then it would be up to them. Anyway SISU have made it clear than the Ricoh would be a short term option whilst our new ground is built.

    Sky Blues return is "essential" for businesses to survive

    I have sympathy for CCFC. None for ACL or SISU. I would like to see CCFC in its own ground. With competent ownership. No idea how that is going to happen.

    Help required with dating a football

    Laced balls were around in the 60's, might have been going out by then. My guess is that this was never intended to be used, more a display item with the laces being for historical association.

    Have sisu paid the £100 000 grand yet ?

    Compared to what they have lost in total, legal fees are small change. I agree with the good money being thrown after bad, but that has always confused me with them. I had assumed there was some big thing I did not know, seems now very unlikely.

    Coventry pay to resurface Sixfields pitch as waggot predicts us playing there

    The Council own the freehold. There to my knowledge has never been any suggestion that they are interest in or willing to sell it. Ideally ACL would own CCFC or CCFC would own ACL. I really can not see either happening. If SISU acquired ACL would it be merged into the Club? I think not. CCFC...

    Coventry pay to resurface Sixfields pitch as waggot predicts us playing there

    They are factually quite small at the moment, with a crowd of 2,000 or so, how can they amount to very much? I never bought anything inside the Ricoh, some did but even there I wonder how much it added up to. Must be quite expensive setting up and stocking for a couple of hours. It is all...

    Why no shirt sponsor

    Reminds me years ago, Wimbledon playing Man U and it was pointed out that Man U received more income form Programme Sales than Wimbledon do from Ticket Sales. A couple of questions: Which other professional team does not have a short sponsor, are we unique? What sort of Company would want to...

    Coventry pay to resurface Sixfields pitch as waggot predicts us playing there

    The income streams are there, but somebody who owns them will want to be paid for them. Playing at the Ricoh whilst building a new ground must be more viable, you will have built up the crowd needed to sustain a new ground. Which only leaves one reason left, never thought there was another.

    Appeal Decision?

    I would like to see CCFC playing well in a higher league, preferably the Premiership. Not sure the Premiership would happen in my life time, we have sunk too low. I am not that bothered about the Ricoh, I have no emotional attachment to it, I did for Highfield Road, but that has gone never to...

    Appeal Decision?

    They pay interest using the money borrowed/invested. Assuming it is being paid currently. The Club is unlikely to be making anything, more how much it is losing.

    Appeal Decision?

    I would expect the same. The Council will have their costs 'taxed' so are unlikely to get everything back they have spent. How about a Million plus for SISU. To answer the previous comments presumably the 15 years is from the start not now. It is one thing having a go if the win is a big pay...
