    So ACL had no option

    Higgs charity could not back down in reality, they are a local based charity set up from the wealth of a former coventry fan, they are there to perform charitable acts for the people of Cov, the city I live in. Backing down to SISU would be a huge financial cost as well as allowing the...

    So ACL had no option

    Grendel ACL aas you well know are 50% owned by a charity because CCFC were skint, they later purchases the rights to F&B again cos the club were in dire financial straits. Most good citizens recognise the role the charity have played. Hedge funds care little for this and since they can no...

    A Deal Is Simple Really

    Wat the council and Higgs have put into the arena soes not equal its market value. The council put very little into the stadium, Tesco funded the majority. However that does not give the club the divine right to get a large chnk of the equity in the property for free. Why should SISU benefit...

    A Deal Is Simple Really

    the SISU investment in CCFC has been a financial disaster. Surely they want out ASAP. Owning ACL or 50% of it is not their objective, its the freehold of th stadium to allow them to sell on. But they won't pay the market price. there has been no positive development regarding these talks...

    Could the new Royal baby be a Skyblue fan?

    Due to my oirish roots I often have to tread carefully when discussing my apathy to the Royals for fear of it being interpreted as supporting an irish republican terrorist cause. I don't dislike the Royals I can see they serve a purpose but can't be bothered with the over the top excitement or...

    Could the new Royal baby be a Skyblue fan?

    Hope they will be ok, with all the cuts like to child benefit etc... its tough for young couples with children these days. Give it a few months and he will be trying to land his chopper again.

    CVA meeting today

    OK so again you are the investor who gave £5m to SISU for project Coventry, nearly 6 years ago, when are you likely to see your money back plus any profits ?. Maybe SISU are playing a blinder at distressing ACL and breaking their lease obligations but what has it cost us CCFC to achieve that...

    CVA meeting today

    So True Sky Blue if SISU had invested your hard earned millions on project Coventry what would be the expected return % and when are you likely to receive it. I don't doubt SISU credentials but they got this one badly wrong and it looks like the only way they will try to get their money back...

    CVA meeting today

    I think you have been drinking too much. If you are trying to state that through all this shambles that SISU have won something then its one of the more bizarre statements ever written on here. SISU have invested money and their investment is worth considerably less as well as the asset that...

    Has this ever been explained

    I think the plan is to distress ACL or the fans to such an extent that either they get the stadium on the cheap or some white knight comes riding in with a big cheque to pay them off. They have no chance of getting the stadium cheap local government / charities legislation should probably...

    1-1- friendly vs heracules

    Clarke won't be here come Aug 31st Leon that is, a good striker at this level will generate a fee plus will be on a reasonable salary, SISU need to fund the self imposed operating losses caused by moving.

    Can / will anybody stop them?

    Having worked for a company taken over by a hedge fund, I find it so strange that their due diligence seemed so incompetent, they paid money for a club with debts and who had negotiated the lease from hell £1.2m plus limited access to matchday funds. Would negotiation of the lease as part of...

    David Bell to Notts County

    David Bell has and always will be a show pony, has a good first touch and can cross a ball but seems to spend all his time on the halfway line with minimal impact in the final third. His lack of pace is his biggest weakness, from what I saw of county there is plenty of pace so maybe he can...

    Support the team, not the regime

    Its not a secret is it, its the whole reason they are moving us to Cobblers, Ricoh is there and available, but tactic is to distress ACL, revenge on CCC for stepping in at preventing the financial collapse of ACL. All fans that go to Cobblers are supporting SISU as they use CCFC in their battle...

    My latest email to football League

    I studied accounting and there was wrongful and fraudulent trading, both are criminal offences, one of these is knowingly trading when insolvent. Surely SISU are in breach of these when they move the assets out of holdings into limited.

    Actually a little optimistic for the season ahead..

    I saw Cyrus at none -eaten, he looked huge and was by far our best outlet. Won't be here at the start of the season though as his sales receipts will be needed to fund the cobblers debacle.

    Acl back on cwr again

    Grendel don't refer to Sisu as a normal business, no normal business would alienate 90% of its fan base by relocating to Northampton or incur the huge losses that SISU have apparently and still want to continue operating. Sisu bought CCFC aware of the long term lease, complain about lack of...

    Will Skyblues pull decent crowds?

    I think villa at the ricoh would pull crowds not necessarily cov fans or people going to watch villa but general footi fans wanting to see premiership football and the big clubs. blues at the ricoh would not attract many.
