    Cov Telegraph Reporting

    not expecting much from them .... just how is this reporting (without comment) consistent with their petition to keep Cov in Cov... their call to say the if we moved out of Cov then SISU must go.... has their agenda changed?

    Cov Telegraph Reporting

    dongonzalos, exactly... I agree they have to report it, but clearly an opportunity missed to maintain the focus on the keep Cov in Cov campaign. now everybody is debating about the merits of the site, not the end goal.

    Cov Telegraph Reporting

    Todays report in the CET regarding the agreement in principal for SISU to purchase the Brandon Stadium site left me rather confused (again) about their position. You could argue that it was updating the supporters regarding the ongoing search for a new site. You could argue that they are...

    robert earnshaw.....?

    I think Coventry would be a great place for him to come to in order to get first team football and goals. We seem to make a heap of chances most games and are a team on the up with the real possibilitiies of the playoffs and a trip to Wembley. He is free to sign for whoever in the summer and...

    David McGoldrick off to Ipswich

    I think DMG was fantastic for us and was the in the goal scoring form of his life. I think we sould be thankful that we had him when we did. That said I do find his decision a little puzzling and think there is more to this than meets the eye. The reason 1) With CCFC he was in the form of his...

    "Positive" Talks With Cranie

    I cant believe that they they still expect us to take this crap in. When ever city have positive talks with any player where there is interest else where it follows a familiar path. Positive talks....... looking good.....everyone has a price .......gone..... remember last year marlon King...

    City confirm official bids for Keogh & Captancy if he stays

    he ois as good as gone , all that remains to determine is the price. Always the CCFC tactic . We are committed to keep the player..... in Negotiations.... not for sale......everybody has a price.....Gone.

    A lot is happening, bit of a summary so far.......

    Oldskyblue58, i think we are making the same point. it is likely that there is some impediment calling our existance into doubt over the next 12 months, which would have to be highlighted by any auditor. So we can conclude that we do not have enough cash from our own earning potential...

    A lot is happening, bit of a summary so far.......

    In response to "This begs the question if we have a budget, why have the books not been submitted?" I am a little confused here. The accounts are a snap shot of the trading position of the company on the last day of their fiscal year. There are comparisons to previous years trading positions...

    The Hoff

    I cant see the Hoff doing anything, even if he does he then has to negotiate (eventually) for the sale of the Ricoh. Without knowing if there are any reasons why this is not possible. Why does not the ACL / Higgs trust purchase the club for a nominal fee/ They are already a creditor of the...

    you make me laugh

    Sylus, I dont know how you or anybody can really evaluate Thorn's performance given his lack of resources and support from the board. He could be the best manager in the world or the worst or anywhere in between for that matter, but what is certainly not up for debate is the total lack of...

    Thorn sacked if we lose tomorrow

    This may not be as mad as it seems. If AT is "removed" by mutual consent then he will probably be paid off. If that is the case then there will be a legal agreement with some non disclosure clauses in it preventing him from telling all when he leaves. If they simply dont renew his contract...

    Yeah, it's the rent

    Sky_blue_up_North. The point you make may well be valid but it is easily lost in the "council puts sky blues into Admin" or the "council owned stadium with no football team" headlines that SISU are driving towards. Both ways the council will either be portaryed as propping up a hedge fund...

    Yeah, it's the rent

    This is a very clever move by SISU. Getting the local authority to tip us over the edge. there are not many organisations that could be more unpopular than SISU but the council could be a contender. This is a tactic that was advocated by Richard Keyes in his interview a while back. The sky...

    Next Years Budget Projections

    Its hard to tell ......but one sure fire thing that brings things to a head is when HM Govt come calling for their cash. This is what sparked the last "investment round" from SISU. they will be the ones to push us into admin

    Next Years Budget Projections

    Has antone taken into account VAT on ticket sales 20% belongs to the Govt plus any NI contributions that are payable by any employer. This would nean that at least 20% of our income from tickets has to be discounted , if we have already borrowed money on next years ticket sales at some point...

    To the apathetic ones...

    I think that they are now beyond any plan, they are simply salvaging what they can. Their only plan was the premier league on the cheap. If we accept that are looking to recoup £30m of invesment or debt the only way that would happen is to be in the premier league. Outside the premier...

    To the apathetic ones...

    Sisu's Sole responsibility (as a company) is to their share holders and to maximise shareholder benefit. That is it, the rest of it does not count at all. Selling Juke would appear to be the beginning of the end game for them. They are clearly just getting back what they can to minimise their...

    Back Hoff urges Keys... CovMad

    I believe that any proposition that contains the words, it is understood, should, would or could tend without substance.... i hope to be proved wrong in this case

    Last Nights Protest Meeting

    Ashbyjan, I agree that they don’t give a fig, they are money men in it for a profit.... but the not buying a program campaign is a sustainable and easily repeatable protest. I don't think you can expect people not to attend and support the team on a regular basis but to protest by simply not...
