They couldn't call the team Coventry City Ladies Football Club though from what I've read.
Would also expect it will bring an end to the promotion the trust did on behalf of the ladies team.
What happens if and when we get new owners if they are big supporters of womens football and start a new womens side under the Coventry City banner with the full backing of the club? I suspect in most peoples eyes they would be the primary womens side in the city.
Surely the advantages shouldn't need explaining to you do they? Are you that short sighted?There are benefits from a female participation in football point of view. Tell me specifically the advantages to CCFC then?
Quite right.Im a complete twat and That is correct.

Still not hearing these advantages...
There are no advantages. Not one.
Isn't CCFC supposed to represent a community? Are women not part of that community?
Although I'm surprised you can see some benefit to the ladies team.
They can't use the Ricoh, as it's already used by 2 teams plus they probably can't afford it. Long term it may work better for both of those clubs to groundshare.
Would CCFC fans really be happy with budget meant for CCFC being diverted to the women's set up?
So eloquently scriptedNo and if it was you'd get a thread titled: "Fucking SISU Fucking money Fucking Women Fucking SISU"
Which women?
Ones with female genitalia? Women. You do know what women are don't you?
But I'm confused. There isn't a ladies team in Coventry so which community are you referring to?
You're telling me that there isn't one single ladies team in Coventry? You are confused.
So you are not referring to Coventry Ladies then. Which team do you think the club should help and why?
They should have helped CCFCL. It ties in with the wider community and helps engage females from the Coventry and Warwickshire area engage in football which will inevitably lead some of those to go to the Ricoh to watch CCFC. The club in recent years has broke traditional ties with the community not least Higgs and now CCFCL. You're the first to moan that the local community doesn't support the team. This has to work both ways. You have to speculate to accumulate.
So what you are saying is a team that had the name "Coventry" in it should be viewed as representing Coventry even if it no longer plays there?
You tell me. You went to Northampton to watch Coventry City Football Club play "home" games.
I also said Coventry and Warwickshire which is what I personally see CCFC and any associated women's or youth team representing.

Hang on, so if Tim builds a ground outside the city boundary but in Warwickshire, you'd be fine with that?

If they do build it'll be outside the Coventry as their investors have said they won't invest in the city.

Well it's you that said it so I assume that's your view.
Out of interest why that team - why not say Coventry Copswood. Wouldn't the same argument apply to them?
Were we talking about a different CCFC Ladies, sorry ex CCFC ladies.
So you say support the franchise team that moved out of the City of its name for financial benefit and not the one that until last season remained in Coventry?
If you're going to ask me a question you're going to have to do it in as a straight question not in a nonsensical 321 Dusty Bin style. I quite literally don't understand what you just asked.
Ccfc ladies Fc made a conscious decision to move location outside of Coventry for financial gain.
So why support a franchise club that has moved for that reason?
Conversely if the interest is purely in local community engagement and you think support a women's team is a priority (I don't) why wouldn't you channel that into the team who tried to tough it out and remain in Coventry?
Haven't they just gone back to the location where they had always played before being invited to play at the Ricoh at the start of last season?
Are you sure? I thought the first team had played at the oval for years until last season.
