If only someone else had thought this in 2014 and attempted to bring in another club to share the burden. They would surely be hailed as doing the best for the club and not at all fucking them over?
Course but not to own themRegardless if he owns us or not, it would still be a dick move to 'redevelop' the Arena without CCFC due to the negative reaction/PR it would receive when he could buy any plot of land and build from new.
Why does any business run an exhibition centre? Last I checked the NEC don’t need a Premier League team to make money.
He was a dreadful custodian of Newcastle United, I think they know the inner runnings of their football club better than anyone elseAdding Sports Direct to a stadium name and 'only investing' net £100m over his time to anger the Geordies is a bit different to getting a club to leave a stadium so he can use it for his business interests.
It won't happen anyway.
They were doing consultations a couple of months ago at Ansty Golf Club.
The present directors must sign any agreements in law, not old directors of companies ,thats why the old agreement is null and void, otherwise old directors would be responsible for everNo. And I don’t see why we need a new licence either, except for the fact that because it’s a licence they can cancel it whenever.
What matters is the legal entity, not who the majority shareholder of that entity is.

Might want to when we've built our Warwick Uni ground

If a fan of another club lectured everyone on SISU not being so bad because of a few trips to Wembley and a league title we’d tell them to go swivel
Seriously no interest expressed at allTo make money?
Run a venue and make £100m in, erm, 15 years (being generous).
Run a Championship club and make £100m in less than 12 months.
No brainer really, innit?
Anyway, I think we both agree that MA isn't going to kick the club out to further his business interests. It surely helps his business finances to take us on and help us up a level.
I do not understand thisThe present directors must sign any agreements in law, not old directors of companies ,thats why the old agreement is null and void, otherwise old directors would be responsible for ever
The old license was with a company that is no longer trading (Wasps/ACL - we don't know which)I do not understand this
Directors sign as officers of the Company - and any agreement is with the Company not the Owners or Directors
So any changes to either of those does nothing to invalidate an agreement with the Company
I think it’s only conspiracy theorists on here causing confusionAnyone a bit concerned we haven't had an announcement on the ground for rest of the season yet? Was supposedly a foregone conclusion at the start of the week so expected something concrete by now

So it falls away
Licenses aren't transferable
My mate who went to the Ansty get together, has had conversations with his councillors both local and parish believes that it’s a done deal. He points to the work already carried out to the local road network, he also believes MA wouldn’t have been interested in ACL otherwise citing a pattern of investing in other projects outside of his usual business model in areas where he’s making investments in his usual business model. Nothing approved until it’s approved officially but it’s certainly not been turned down and it’s certainly being seriously considered.Then the consultation group may have indicated a possible refusal. Whatever - it is going to be some years away I suspect

Pretty certain no one will be evicted even following through on the notice before may 23

The NEC is on an entirely different scale, handily located near international airport and railway station. If it had an arena it would be looking to use it, as it hasn’t it can’t. As an exhibition centre, isn’t the CBSA a bit tin pot?What’s that got to do with whether the exhibition centre can make money?

Certainly agree with last sentence.OK pick any other exhibition centre. My point was it’s unlikely owning the club is essential to the entire operation. Now it’s debt free and with capital to develop it, I can see how there’s a business there. But as people keep telling me Ashley is a smart business man and his ways are unknowable to us mere mortals. Just pointing out several people were interested who weren’t trying to buy the club. The only reason we think Ashley is is because he owned Newcastle.
I think this is the key to why a new license is required.Odd how Arena coventry limited is now ACL Astute 2022 same with ACL2006
Both now have changes of address to the administrator.
Anyone who deals with these things. is this standard ?
Does this mean that Frsner group owns the property and no ACL as a company

Ashley/Frasers have acquired an asset of ACL (the long lease), not ACL itself (with all the debt attached to it).
Hence the club's 10-year license with ACL is null and void and the need for a new agreement with Frasers.

If everyone's so confident there's no eviction, why hadn't it been confirmed yet

No, they took on ACL.
If they have moved the lease, where is it now?
I think that’s right that they’ve only bought the lease. The administrators report mentions staff TUPEing across to “SDI (Retail co 10)” which seems to be an Ashley company. The administrators report is interesting reading though, page 26 goes into the sale process, seems Ashley was the only bidder basically.
