Oh OK, so when you said that ACL did it to keep us in Coventry you were just making it up? Fair enough, I didn't think there was a real plan behind ACLs rejection. Apart from spite maybe.
Not sure at all although didn't that nice poster true sky blue say that it isn't all over yet and a deal can still be done? I am actually seriously hoping that ACL have some master plan to counter the SISU one to move us to Sixfields and rejecting the CVA was part of that. The only thing it does I think give us is an investigation into the Ltd and hopefully all the connected companies. I'd rather it was everyone getting investigated but for a start this will do.
What apologist nonsense. Any professional business does due diligence to ensure all risks are assessed and mitigated. They did due diligence and then signed to take over contracts. You act like Sisu are dewy eyed, naive softies- they arent and never were. They just screwed up.
They just screwed up.
I can understand WHY ACL rejected. I really can. But for the life of me I can't really see how it helps Coventry City and us. The fans.
Why? Because it still keeps us in with a chance, torchy.
With the CVA signed, the deal is closed and there's nothing to stop SISU buggering off to Northampton forever. As things are there's going to be a challenge against the administrator's decision and/or the probablilty of further investigations into the asset transfers in CCFC Ltd, and continued pressure against the FL and NTFC. It keeps the fight going.
Maybe but ACL have held us to ransom and screwed the fans over got being greedy. They keep saying they font need the club to be profitable so why not help the club!

Do you understand the concept of two parties negotiating and agreeing a contract? that isnt 'ransom' now is it?
CCFC negotiated the rental contract (its pricing and clauses) for months, it was agreed and signed off. Sisu did due diligence, okayed and took on the contract. Years later Sisu started moaning about the contract they took on. Then tried to distress the other party, because clearly the Sisu agenda changed- and despite ACL moving a lot, Sisu have brought us here.
As the owner, the buck stops with Sisu for the well being of CCFC- and the have utterly failed.
What a pile of shit you write - the only ones squirming are acl - the league have rejected their complaint already and they have no chance of winning a court case with sisu or Northampton- acl are finished and have lost all credibility - a busted flush .
The game is up and both sisu and acl can hold their heads in shame.
This all sounds a load of crap to me. Why not just buy Northampton if you want a club there.
ACL are only interested in themselves not the fans
Sheffield Wednesday fan in peace. Just wanted to say I was really saddened to see that your club has gone into liquidation. You the fans definitely don't deserve this and I wish you a speedy route out of the mess and back competing at a higher level where you belong.

So the council have got a £100m stadium for £24m but we're pay the loan and you think that's ok.
I don't want sisu running us, I also the club to own it's home!
I have no idea what you're on about. Just repeating the same load of rubbish doesn't make it true, it just makes for more rubbish.
What would you have done mate, seriously. Faced with SISU and their total unwillingness to negotiate in good faith, what would you have done?
the sisu boys thrashed the acl boys today! maggie thatcher, winston churchill, michael parkinson your boys took a beating (with nordic acent)

Agreed but football has changed. With FFP it's based on income streams. The times change and so should the contract.
Can't people get it in their head that sisu and ACL don't seem to have the fans interests at heart.
SISU could have bought their way into the income streams via the Higgs 50% at any point.
But rather than that they whined about the rent.
Then when they got what they said was a fair offer on the rent, it suddenly became about income streams. But oddly, they never even entered into serious discussion about that.
There's nothing stopping them agreeing to play at the Ricoh whilst they build a new stadium, if it really was about income streams, or even negotiating a better deal whilst in situ.
But they're not going to do that. Because it's fuck all to do with either rent or FFP, it's about getting their hands on the Ricoh for as little as possible. And to do that they really will fuck everyone over. And yet it's ACL's fault.
Unbelieveable
Why would anyone want to relocate to Northampton. I could see the otherwise round.
I believe sisu tried to buy the Higgs share and the council vetoed it ( correct me if I'm wrong) so how are The council and ACL so much better?

My worry has always been that ACL weren't bluffing when they said that they can survive without CCFC and they manage to do so*. We're then homeless and in need of the White Elephant that Young Timothy claims he will build, well does anyone really think they'll build it? So we're likely never to return to Coventry under SISU ownership which is just F*cking great.
*I'd put money on more legal challenges from SISU now to try and stop that being possible.

If you don't want to go to Northampton its your choice but burbage, good job bristol rovers fans stayed loyal to their club at bath - and rose again unlike too many on here who threw in the towel far too easily - get to sixfields and support the team - they need you now more than ever.
Wonderful. Just when you thought it couldn't get worse the local forum idiot pops in to spout his usual garbage.

ACl are in cloud cuckoo land if they think they have a chance of winning their court case with us. Gonna look even more of a shambles when it gets laughed out of court.
