    Pubs and Local Businesses - Nikki Sinclaire MEP

    It depends if they can prove ACL have been negligent.

    Pubs and Local Businesses - Nikki Sinclaire MEP

    I think you're right, however all of those, apart from the Casino are not heavily reliant on income generated by Coventry City matchdays

    Pubs and Local Businesses - Nikki Sinclaire MEP

    In all fairness to Nikki Sinclaire, it's not the first time she's raised concerns about the Sky Blue's case. Sometimes it seems you're damned if you do and damned if you don't. In terms of businesses putting all of their eggs in one basket, it feels like an irrelevance to me, surely the...

    we support the groundshare - sign here

    Wouldn't it be ironic if ACL survived through bringing in a new tenant associated with the oval rather than the round ball and the new M69 derby turns out to be Saints v Tigers!!

    Fit and Proper Persons Test.. when ?

    I guess they were trying not to burn bridges should there be negotiations in the future.

    Fit and Proper Persons Test.. when ?

    I think you're being a tad optimistic to think that the press will have a field day, we barely warrant a paragraph in the sport sections these days. As for the league, they have pretty much washed their hands of us and will follow the path of least resistance. They can see off a few fan...

    Stewards

    How can they sign up to steward elsewhere when they don't know where that ground is ? Personal circumstances will dictate that some existing stewards won't be able to get to the ground share location.

    Grendel please explain !!!!

    It's good to know that SISU are a charitable organisation operating for the mutual benefit of all CCFC supporters. I feel reassured by what you're saying and will no longer worry about the future of the club!

    ACL statement today apparently

    The debts haven't been wiped, they have merely been transferred from one SISU entity to another!

    Justin rose

    I take your point, however they should actually have stated that it was the first Englishman to win since 1970, that would have avoided the British/English confusion that arose. I didn't surprise me that out of the group of top 10 English players (Westwood, Donald, Poulter), Rose is the 1st one...

    'The Coventry Elephants' is probably a good description of our back 4 over the last 10 years!

    just been said on CWR

    I don't doubt some of the parties have that sort of money, the question is are they willing to spend it with such massive risk involved.

    ACL to allow CCFC Ltd to play for free!

    http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/sport/football/4961833/Dan-King-Sport-Uncovered-Swansea-baffled-by-European-Commisson-claims.html Whilst everyone is getting carried away I'm amazed nobody has addressed my earlier point of state aid being illegal and contravening EU laws. Swansea are under...

    ACL to allow CCFC Ltd to play for free!

    http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/sport/football/4961833/Dan-King-Sport-Uncovered-Swansea-baffled-by-European-Commisson-claims.html This may be deemed as state aid by the EU thus contravening fair trade regulations. I can't imagine the other League 1 clubs being particularly happy about...

    The administrator's statement reads: "Following Friday's deadline, I have received a number of indicative offers for the assets of Coventry City FC Limited. "I am now inviting all interested parties to provide their best and final offers by noon on Thursday June 13. "Having discussed the...

    Michael Duberry on a free?

    Have you seen his birth certificate? It feels like he's been around since the late 80s. Didn't he play in the infamous game when Chelsea wore our away shirts? Whatever his age he's another past it signing we could do without.

    TF explains how ........

    No it's not. It's legitimate practice to buy a business out of administration, it isn't to push a company into admin in the 1st place. Any assets the club has are far outweighed by it's liabilities, hence the reluctance to pay over the odds. Potential is a different matter, but that will only...

    TF explains how ........

    The difference is, the lines of communication and negotiation are now closed to SISU, which is not the case for new owners. SISU have well and truly 'burnt bridges' and 'scorched earth'!

    TF explains how ........

    5 key differences between the Brentford plan's and SISU's (I refuse to call them CCFC's): 1. The stadium will be within the boundaries of Brentford 2. It will be in an area where regeneration plans are likely to be accepted 3. They have sensible funding plans 4. They own their own stadium and...
