No. But can't be bothered to to write out again all of the reasons why.We were a league 2 club and if the vote had been taken we could have been a championship one today.
lots of work still to do off the pitch but what a phenomenal job Robins and Boddy have done.
Any room for any credit to the owner?
Not yet, They haven't repaired the damage they have caused yet. Get us back playing in Coventry and fighting at the right end of the Championship and then we'll talk.We were a league 2 club and if the vote had been taken we could have been a championship one today.

Dont think I'd ever go so far as to praise SISU or say they've done well.We were a league 2 club and if the vote had been taken we could have been a championship one today.

so much of it is PR and the way you sell somethingIf it had been Hoffman and Elliot taking the council on over the non-negotiable £1.2M a year rent and breaking the lease and having to leave the city, the reaction to it would have been a hell of a lot different.
A lot of the list was about balance sheet management...relegation...players downed tools. They did well to get us relegated.It’s taken 2 homeless trips and relegation to league 2 for them to finally figure out how to run a football club.
2011-2017 has been an absolute shit show of decline. If they get a cheaper rental deal or get a new stadium going they will in actual fact have the club in a better position when they found it.
+ Losing mentality gone
+ clear squad identity
+ big rental removed
+ championship side*
+ 2 promotions, 3 trophies and a manger we’re all behind.
- still huge debt
- still no place to call home
get rid of the bottom two minuses and they can be praised

If they get us a rental deal Better than 1.2 million we will be in a better position then when they found usSo you got the shit beaten out of you and all your stuff robbed, but eight years later and the robbers have brought you chicken soup and refilled your wallet.
In all seriousness if they can leave us better than they found us then they’ll deserve praise. There’s a large stadium sized hole in that at the moment though.
My conditions:
- Same or better division than when they found us :emoji_heavy_check_mark:
- Same or better ground situation :emoji_heavy_multiplication_x:
- Same or better squad quality :emoji_question:
- Same or better finances :emoji_heavy_multiplication_x:/:emoji_question:
So a bit to go yet.
The yearly non negotiable rental agreement was always going to be a problem, regardless of owner.So you got the shit beaten out of you and all your stuff robbed, but eight years later and the robbers have brought you chicken soup and refilled your wallet.

Classic shmee
Missed the council being our owners.
Check OP, the question was about our owners.
Going off half cocked and making himself look like a twat, classic cc4l
You do realise we don’t have a stadium and that the franchise will be looking to get as much out of us as possible?For me, if we end up in the Championship (again!) they need us to get back playing in Coventry, by whatever means necessary, and then i will honestly say they have done well, even if its an odd way to go about it.
We all know what they've done, and in the most probably for selfish reasons, but at the end of the day its in their interest the football club is successful, get us back in Cov and it will be!
I don’t think anything needs forgetting, the one thing one of the parties said to me was they couldn’t believe Sisu didn’t take the option of 50% stake. Well ok but how long ago was that and your point cllr duggins is?
i do realise that yes, but it boils down to the fact we cannot sustain being outside of Coventry.You do realise we don’t have a stadium and that the franchise will be looking to get as much out of us as possible?
We desperately need our own stadium and to get away from the Ricoh.
It would be ludicrous to pay them for a 50% stake and I’m sure take on the debt as well - unless we got it for half of what they paid in total with zero debt, I can’t see that happening though.i do realise that yes, but it boils down to the fact we cannot sustain being outside of Coventry.
I'd rather not give the Wasps a penny but i dont think we'd survive at Stans until new stadium is built (3/4 more years?!)
Wasps are screwed, they must be, they will be desperate for us to go back soon and we now have a much bigger negotiating chip.
I'd love a new stadium i just cant see it, a 50% share (to start with) of the Ricoh i can see though
