I expect this is a pretty forlorn quest but it be very useful if anyone has copies of the Club's accounts for nearly 50 years ago. I am trying to date the £250,000 interest free loan that Alan Higgs made to the Club and as the only people in the family who could remember accurately are dead and a crucial diary is missing I have to make a general appeal. Maybe someone out there was a shareholder and kept them. If so please help.
Can you help? I need the CCFC accounts for 1962,3,4,5. (1 Viewer)

Could you not request them under the Freedom of Information Act?
The power of the forum: I have had a message from a well known poster and am on the trail.
I am afraid that it is not connected to any takeover. I don't know of one. It is just that my wife: Alan Higgs' daughter is pulling together all the old letters and diaries, photos etc and sorting them so the next generation have something organised rather than just boxes that will plague them when we kick the bucket.

If you call in that loan we'll have to sell more players...

Great spot, I missed that! I love that show so much, and virtually everything that everyone who was in it has done since! Okay.
Some memorable lines, amongst many: "She was like a candle in the wind...unreliable" and the legendary "We tried every position imaginable-on top, doggy, and normal".

And one of the cast is from Coventry! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alice_Lowe
Wonder if she's a fan..maybe she could get Rob Brydon and Steve Coogan to buy us? They must be pretty loaded by now. Coogan could do the matchday announcements as Alan Partridge-then we'd be "Bouncing Back"! It's all coming together...a-ha!!!

Partridge matchday announcements would be nothing short of legendary!! To be fair, I reckon Tea Boy would pass for Fernando Partridge!! I used to love Alans Football commentary.

The best of that sequence was where he runs out of words, and almost speechless, just commentates/screams "SHIT!!!!" I really want someone to do that at Euro 2012! :claping hands:
