Does a judicial review enable a response to be made ?? If this is indeed the case why wasn't it brought nearer the event ? Why not just Publish the evidence?I am only trying to draw facts from what JF has said. We can assume these facts as TF states them will be disputed by the other parties.

It's hardly common sense to use a reduced ticket offer/blackmail to justify how 'big' a club is. Particularly when clubs listed as 'smaller' have actually achieved things beyond losing in a JPT semi-final in front of a lot of disappointed people.
Ok we all know PWKH would not agree (he wouldn't even agree with any one of 18 "facts" I tried to isolate from his own account of Lawnmowergate!). I personally can't see TF making statements that are complete contradictions of what will shortly come out in the wash anyway! specially in the JR!

Tim Fisher has made many contradictions compared to what has come out in the wash, other people than you call this lieing.
Only the dyslexic ones.
Spelling humour truly the tool of a razor sharp wit.
I've inadvertedly turned mine on . Bloody annoying all these red lines ,there's one under inadvertedly as I type.Your auto-correct working now then?
Your auto-correct working now then?
It's almost enough to make one hope this all does go to court in the hopes that the actual truth - no matter who it may purport to benefit - comes out.
And we don't know they weren't.
Or accuse you of being someone you're not.:laugh:There are also certain people who no matter what shite Fisher speaks, love changing the subject and with very little foundation saying "well, it's not as bad as JE/GH/ACL/CCC PWKH". When it is actually much, much worse.
But according to the notes from the CCLSG he said [replica] kits are in hand but being held up until our club comes out of administration. Fine except that our Club isn't in administration according to TF, he says our Club is in Holdings not Ltd (in administration). So is he contradicting himself, why can't they just release the kits if we're not in administration like he says?Ok we all know PWKH would not agree (he wouldn't even agree with any one of 18 "facts" I tried to isolate from his own account of Lawnmowergate!).

But this points to 3 surprising conclusions.
1. SISU were prepared last year to pay in the order of £25m for an extended deal to continue to work in tandem with ACL. ie showing ongoing commitment that many have doubted. AND that there were NOT determined to break ACL!
2. Did not CCFC start to withhold rent in April 2012? if so that was while these negotiations were still ongoing (Terms were signed with HIGGS on 18.6.2012 AFTER this)
3. When the Council decided to go ahead with funding of £14.4m to bail out ACL they already had a deal on the table for SISU to pay it!

I was at the Charity Shield and the atmosphere was electric, not quite as good as the Cup Final (especially after the final whistle) but still the most amazing day."But we did it in front of a lot of disappointed people which makes us bigger than somebody winning something in front of only a few happy people apaprently."
Not surprising that I agree with you lordsummerisle.
I seem to remember Coventry took 60 000 to the charity shield in 1987. How many clubs could do that?
In first years of top flight we had something like 5th highest attendances in the country, check the stats. Those were the good times economic wise for Coventry in a similar way that other towns ot cities like Reading are now doing quite well.
Yes there are of course bigger clubs that Coventry City. However just because Coventry City are pretty crap most of the time does NOT make us a small club with no potential . Someone has to tap into the potential and SISU are not the ones it seems.
This may annoy some people but part of the problem with Coventry is directly linked to the fans and small time thinking and acceptance of failure over the years. Never truer than now and almost accepting what SISU are trying to do to us. Yes after a while it does get you down particularly since relegation 2001. but dont let SISU condemn us to permanent obsecurity with a 12K stadium or without a ground and 1K crowds at away "home" games.
Amen to that!But who wants a bloody new kit, I want our football club back
+1 I can't imagine why ACL haven't taken Tim to task (legally or otherwise) on previous statements he's made that contained inaccuracies.It would be interesting to get PWKHs thoughts on Fisher's quotes. Very interesting.
But according to the notes from the CCLSG he said [replica] kits are in hand but being held up until our club comes out of administration. Fine except that our Club isn't in administration according to TF, he says our Club is in Holdings not Ltd (in administration). So is he contradicting himself, why can't they just release the kits if we're not in administration like he says?
Or are there two parallel universes colliding in CV6 where both situations are correct?
Ah the JTP semi final.....the benchmark for how big a club is
How many clubs did get a crowd of 30000 this season for a competitive match?
£5 and people thought they were getting a guaranteed Wembley ticket...how many were at the previous tie or the league game on the following Saturday?
it was the first taste of any firm if success for what seems like an eternity.

If it was just to get the wembley ticket you could not turn up, to watch the match. It looked pretty full to me.

Do you know how many teams got 30 k or more this season for a competitive match?
Are you denying that £5 per ticket and a chance to get a Wembley ticket had nothing do do with the crowd?
35k watched Grimsby vs Wrexham in the FA trophy final. They must be bigger than us.
How many clubs did get a crowd of 30000 this season for a competitive match?
How many clubs see two thirds of their stadium sit completely empty for the other 25 or so competitive matches in a season?
Better, obviously. But we're not there and it's on merit, so how can we pretend to be above all this and 'bigger' than teams that pull in more crowds and are more successful?
I suppose it comes down to things beyond league position. CCFC is unique in its record of no league success over an enormous (for football) timeframe. No club does nothing for over 40 years and fills its ground to the rafters-yes you can point to '87 but it was just one glorious day in the sun.
