I'm out the worst season in my memory 5 home (Ricoh) league wins, atmosphere awful, there is no clear player of the season because we have been so bad our fans are now numb some think JOB & Fleck are good players. Will pick and chose next season with a few away games for a laugh but that has...

Think it will be a close game. with the exception of Donny we have dominated the opposition in our recent home games yet only won one. Nouble needs to be on his game, Fleck the confidence to shoot and if Willis is at RB the team to stop relying on his crosses as against Oldham he was often the...

I agree Torch but the fact that it seems to have had a unanimous voted by the local councilors can't help but think SISU had pi$$ed them off so much that many were doing this out of spite. However I doubt if the same deal had been offered to WASPS it would have gone through smoothly especially...

The WASPS deal went through so smoothly as both sides were desperate to do the deal WASPS got a bargain and CCC desperate to get away from ever having to negotiate with SISU ever again.

Partially agree but had SISU been reasonable there was a deal to be struck, their approach allowed WASPS in.

I'm not excusing CCC WASPS ACL Higgs, they all have acted out of self-interest but surely its time to admit SISU got it all wrong played hardball tried to force their own position and lost massively for themselves (who I don't care about) but we've lost out as fans.

Unfortunately this topic will be revisited as impacts on the football club that we support more than any new player or manager.

I have a birthday card - for my 21st, cartoon of the team on the open top bus with the cup signed by the squad including Speedie

Long lease v freehold isn't the key difference the ability to sell on. Freehold you have unrestricted, long leasehold there are usually restictions from the freeholder ie CCC. I do believe the "getting personal issue" was key in all SISU bull$hit about a new stadium they made it clear it...

But we are all talking about this as if it was a normal business transaction, it involved local politicians, it had got very personal, both sides had been to court, its hardly surprising that if CCC could strike a deal with WASPs without having any negotiations with SISU then they would. The...

Freehold allows you to sell the asset 250 year leases can be sold on but subject to constraints laid down by the owner SISU wanted freehold IMO to sell on

Got the 67 retro top and want the 77 admiral kit in sky blue but tempted by the brown version

If you mean fellow fans like you that supported the Sixfields farce, then yes but at the end of the day what you or I think is meaningless as fans because the big decisions were taken by SISU and they have got it so wrong yet seem devoid of your criticism but the naughty council are all to...

Grendel off again criticizing fellow fans for not being as financially astute as he and SISU are, look what SISU have managed to achieve for the club but he prefers to have a go at other fans. SISU have fooked up massively, their call their strategy.

Who was offered a 125 year lease ?

SISU wanted the freehold, nut not only the freehold nut unencumbered freehold, I suspect it was so they as owners could sell on the land and buildings. A 250 year lease is as good as owning it but you can't sell it. Why did SISU not suggest this they are surrounded by property consultants...

Both got lucky 1-0 wins at our place. Webster error v County (no coincidence our improved form is now that he is out) and Orient fluked it our place we were all over them.

More feasible locations are Ryton Baginton Exhall or Ansty, Binley Woods / Brandon would never happen. But the problem with the first 4 is although the Ricoh is in the North of the city it is walking distance for a reasonable part of the Cov population, virtually everyone will have to travel...

New stadium is a faint hope, SISU won't invest the £40m cost having lost so much already, CCC won't support it as would affect their cosy relationship with WASPS, also a shortage of sites inside the city, stadium outside of Coventry just too risky as may be rejected by a lot of fans on...
