SISU all over that..
It's the only idea to get football back in Coventry. The cheaper the better is surely the mantra for all geniune CCFC fans on here.
and to hell with the Coventry taxpayers.
Why are you so against Sisu paying market rate?
So lets get this straight. If a market rare for a player is £2 million and the club had an opportunity to get that player for free you'd rather "we did the right thing" and pay £2 million?
Just to be clear 2 years ago we were directionless and the council were holding us to ransom demanding unfair rent. So in that context moving to a new stadium made sense.
However when we were put into liquidation that changed things for me. The council were willing to negotiate bit only with new buyers it seemed
Are there any more "Oy Jimmy" delights out there?
Laughable and busted!

Two years on, we are homeless and now SISU are holding us to ransom demanding an unfair deal.
I am not sure what else you expected the outcome to be.

It might just be me...but 90% of your posts tend to suggest you are a right tosser! Not the same at all. Think outside of football. Whatever the council loses the local taxpayer pays for.
Really? So explain to me how the individual taxpayer loses?

Only 90%?!?
Bazza, you're too kind.

He's been posting since before SISU even thought about buying... Southampton.

Says the poster who called all season ticket holders last season worms...or was it scum? Remind us which was it?
And this coming from a poster that says any true sky Blues supporter would give sisu the Ricoh for nothing.
Well after supporting the City for over 40 years s and not wanting Sisu to get the ricoh for nothing or even on the cheap I suppose that means I am not a Coventry fan?
Sorry grendel but you really are a right Knob of the highest order.
So you agree with dadgad that season ticket holders are worms? How odd.
No where have I said that.
You are just trying to change the subject.
I also do not agree that just because you support acl or sisu or go to sixfields or don't or are a hiller makes you a less of a supporter unlike your good self.
I have good friends in all camps we go to away matches together they have there reasons for what they do I have mine. I go to the hill I tie ribbons I don't like sisu but I am as passionate as the next man when it comes to CCFC.
I do not want Sisu getting the Ricoh for nothing and yes I would prefer that they didn't get it at all, my view and if that makes me a Vile supporter then so be it.
Will be at Bradford on Sunday and MK and any other away game I can make will we see you at any this season, I have not seen you post on any of the game threads this season???????
If you bother to read what I actually say for once I have consistently stated I will not be at any game until the club returns to Coventry. A fact many such as you conveniently overlook.

How many football players are currently owned by the Coventry taxpayer?
It might just be me...but 90% of your posts tend to suggest you are a right tosser! Not the same at all. Think outside of football. Whatever the council loses the local taxpayer pays for. That might not concern people with lots of free cash...but some are on a shoestring budget & would tip over the edge. You think that's fair play just so that SISU get the Ricoh cheap?
I am NEVER going to a home match a Sickfields. I live over 100 miles from Coventry...never even lived there - but my affinity to club AND city appears stronger than some who claim to be born & bred & bleed sky blue!.

What did we do in order to create the situation in which we get the player at a knock down price?
You were promoting SISU's business tactics before Grendel.
It was pointed out to you that soon they would do something that completely screws the fans and at that this would be by using the same tactics that you laud.
Now they have and you currently don't get to watch your team live.
Yet somehow you still defend them.
Quite bizarre to say the least
It's not defending them its negative the myth that the taxpayer is effected.
I believe the accepted council contribution was £10 million. The notion anyway a sale is going to be less than that is pie in the sky.
Taxpayers will lose or gain nothing whatever happens.
If course the club will benefit if the assett is purchased at a relatively low price.
