At least it would be our rugby club...
So we'll either be
A) ground sharing with a rugby club
Or
B) ground sharing with a rugby club
it's a tricky one

You could guarantee if this was a Hoffmann idea everyone against it now would have a different opinion...
Then I would hope there will be plenty of paper in the gents toilets Rev.The Hill's bar is definately been bought and refurbished by Hill83 off skyblues talk. I've heard He recently won a massive wad on the lottery and will be putting in a bid for the club early next week.
How do I know, well I'm best mates with his close friend who shit himself at the checkatrade final.
Have you noticed he has been very quiet on this board lately, he's too busy counting his money.

Don't blow your wad on CCFCAll will be revealed in 3 weeks.
Wanna bet???
On a CCFC ground share:
“One of the several options at the study stage is having the Sky Blues as tenants here. We have stated in writing that there would be a number of conditions to this, designed to protect Coventry Rugby’s interests, before it could be realised:- any costs associated with the project would not be borne by CRL or BPAL; the issue of primacy of tenancy would have to be resolved to our satisfaction; the pitch would have to meet all requirements of the RFU, the RL and ourselves; CRL would retain control and ownership of the site through BPAL; we prefer a stadium of not more than 12,000 capacity. Also, as I have already stated elsewhere, we will not deal with SISU.”
We would not own it. How many times to people fall for this.A city centre stadium that we would own. It would need to be a decent size but if it gets us away from this Ricoh mess I don't see why anyone wouldn't want it?

Like the Ricoh we would rent it.
Where are you getting that from? There has never been talk of a rent arrangement. The minutes from the SCG meeting can be found here - Coventry City Supporters' Consultative Group Meeting Minutes - Wednesday, 25th May 2016 - and it is clear (given that Phil Maynard and Jon Sharp were present when all this was being said) that the proposal (at least back then) was for a joint venture. Much has happened since that time, and with SISU's involvement it all looks very unlikely, but the arrangement being discussed then was nothing like the deal we have at the Ricoh, not even close.
I do miss the SCG meeting minutes, always good for a giggle.Never on, never will be.
CRFC are just hoping we put some money in but they have made it clear they will own it.
Sorry to dash your hopes that Fisher sold some people..
SCG minutes ? Don't make me laugh.

CRFC will develop it, but it will be for themselves.The SCG minutes are merely quoting representatives of both CRFC and CCFC on their vision for the proposal at that time. You seem to have some sort of unique insight into the motives of Jon Sharp and Phil Maynard, but I don't believe this to be a CRFC conspiracy. I think it is pretty clear was the vision was at that time.
Will it happen? Almost certainly not for many reasons - not least because TF is incapable of delivering anything, but the idea CRFC would sign-up to a legally binding joint venture and then renege on that soon after is just guff with no basis whatsoever and does them a great disservice.
CRFC will develop it, but it will be for themselves.
If CCFC are involved it will be because CRFC gain from it.
I'm just telling the poster that we will not own it. In fact if Sisu do build a stadium we will not own it.
Actually, when the idea was first put forward about 18 months ago, it was suggested that CRFC would take control of the freehold, but the leasehold would be a 50/50 split through a joint venture company. The rugby club would keep their matchday revenues, the football club would keep all theirs and non-matchday revenues would be split 50/50. Not saying it will or should happen, but this was the commercial arrangement that was discussed initially, iirc at a SCG meeting where Jon Sharp was present.
Quite and who would blame them for that !Seems things have moved on from those SCG minutes - in 22/03/2017 statement from Mr Sharp specifically states option of having CCFC as a tenant and CRFC controlling the site.

Let me reword this a little:
A) LARGE ground sharing with a rugby club
Or
B) SMALL ground sharing with a rugby club
Tough choice
Let me have a go.
A) LARGE ground renting from a rugby club
Or
B) SMALL ground renting from a rugby club
Tough choice

What's the difference being at the Ricoh and renting off Wasps then?Wasps RFC don't own their stadium. How many clubs do not separate the property asset from the sports club?
Ricoh world class?What's the difference being at the Ricoh and renting off Wasps then?
Rent tin pot stadium or rent a world class stadium.
It is a class above the Butts though.Ricoh world class?
You're a simple c**tNever on, never will be.
