I just can't understand how this is financially viable for the club - didn't ACL offer a year of being rent free? No land or planning permission to build a new ground Cost of building new ground Cost of renting another ground Greatly reduced income as much less support - they will be lucky to...

I will not be going to Northampton to watch home games - its the final nail in the coffin for me. Hopefully SISU are in the coffin and it will be burried very soon, as we are the running joke of the football league!

I saw him on Sunday and he is enjoying every minute training and playing with Newcastle but he is missing his family and Coventry. He's learning all the time and playing with some very talented players I'm sure he will grow quickly as a player.

I know the lad personally and his upbringing and church back ground will always keep his feet on the ground. I've rarely met an 18 year old lad that is so mature and grounded for his years, especially one that has the world at his feet. He didn't want to leave but the chance to develop as a...

Explains the lack of Band Bang Bang - more along the lines - splutter splutter fizzle :( The previous year wasn't as bad as the prize assets were sold off - others vanished for nothing as they wouldn't offer a decent contract. I really don't understand the short sighted nature of SISU. From...

Really glad that the transfer emargo has been lifted but the door is open now open both ways and with the past performance of SISU I won't hold my breathe for incoming signings. Have more expectations of players leaving than joining as sales were also not allowed during the embargo. Prove me...

Just wake me up when something has happened :( I think I'll hibernate just like our once proud club.:sleep:

I have to admit that I'm so sick of the not knowing and current situation that I rarely even check the news now as if something big happens it will be in the media. If nothing big happens then my enthusiasm will be at an all time low for the beginning of a season. Maybe there are discussions...

Gael doesn't want to leave City he has made that very clear and knowing the lad this isn't a throw away statement. He is settled and he's still learning his trade, he will develop much quicker from playing regular first team football than watching from the sidelines. I have little doubt that he...

His hands will still be tied next season as his budget is zero as it stands we are only looking at free transfers and if the transfer embargo isn't lifted soon the best of the free options will have been picked up by other clubs. As we currenly stand it will be the youth team next season as we...

The only plus from if SISU do but half the RICOH is that it makes the club more attractive to another buyer! (if we owned the ground we wouldn't be in this mess!)

The White Elephant

Success next season will depend on a number of things Re-investing the cash from selling Keogh, Mcpake, Cranie and Wood as I think they will all be departing Keeping the young talent - Bigi, Thomas, Christie, Clarke etc we have to develop these players and not sell before they hit their...

I think the simple maths is that current outgoings vastly out weighs current income. Gates are down (for many reasons not least being the plight of the club), no income from the stadium, little sponsorship etc etc Costs are less but still high - We simple cant afford the RICOH in the...

All part of Operation Premiership and sneaking in under the radar! :facepalm:

I'm no lover of SISU or the way the have conducted themselves but the interview reads fair. They are purely speaking from a financial perpsective as their is no passion for the club as a football club as their only real aim is to make a return for their investors. They've tried to balance the...

That makes for depressing reading and when you add on the fact of other debts, rent and lack of income I think we'll be worse off than that! :mad:

Yes think it is 5 maximum and any one time. That still leaves us short plus with our luck they'r ehere for a week and then recalled :thinking about:

The quality of the players signed will once again determine the owners desire to achieve. That's if we make any considerable signings! To get out of Division 1 we will need Championship standard players not middle of the road division 1 players. Look at Reading and Southampton both teams...

It could be the case that this year's academy team will be next season's first team! :o Plus maybe one or two left overs like Deegan.
