Another own goal from the council. Idiots
Why don't you get your head out of your arse and work out that CCFC wouldn't own the ground but a hedge fund that do dodgy deals and do not stick to the law would. For example when did they last have their books up to date like they should?
Grendel, I can't be bothered to quote your illiterate, confused and ill-informed post, but it is not an answer to my question.
You clearly haven't read a word of my post as I never mentioned ground ownership.
Out of interest if the club was owned by another party what would your stance be? Mine as a fan of the club would be they get ownership as cheap as possible even if that brings down ACL Higgs and created a huge hole for the council. Do you think the same?
In other words hunt is saying he doesn't want to research the answer regarding council owned grounds.
Coventry city were given the worst deal of all council owned grounds in 2005 and for sure that's a fact you can never argue against - is it hunt!

Grendel, I refer you to my previous post - in fact, take that as my answer to everything you have to say in the future. Life is far too short to be arguing with a nebbish like you.
The same people that baled us out when we had nothing.
The people who had the gaul to break even after investing a vast sum of public money in the facilities for a fallen Premier League football team.
Remind me- was this before or after SISU took over CCFC?
In other words you can't argue the point and you know I'm right. Fair enough.

.....ahem?
Before. So the council actually proved themselves greedier and more mercenary than sisu could dream of being by ripping us of at our lowest point. Why? Does that make you proud? Makes me angry.

And you keep going on about this high rent as though ACL were ripping the club off. When the finance was sorted interest rates were much higher. So the interest was much higher. So the rent had to be higher. The ones running our club didn't want a sliding scale rent depending on what division we were in. So the amount was agreed on. But you know all this already. ...but strangely never mention it.
Now it has been refinanced SISU are taking the piss but you blame ACL for it all.
Markets dictate prices. Apart from CCFC, who is in the market to play at the Ricoh?

Neither- It makes me wonder why SISU "missed" it to be honest? Poor 'likkle' SISU...
Didn't fletcher say that the club were pretty much backed into a corner and had to just take it? I might be wrong though.
Your right. But they had painted themselves into the corner by poor management of the move to the new stadium.
ACL made no great profits and almost went under when they lost £1M in rent.
All would be hunky dory with the rent if we had stayed in the PL or got back quickly.
That's just rubbish in afraid. I suggest you do some research into the deals all clubs had in 2005 and come back to me. Start with Swansea and stoke.
Everyone from CCFC/SISU have said that we've moved on (and that includes the now slightly less invisible woman Joy) so maybe we should too as fans? Sisu obviously aren't coming back to the Ricoh as Joy says Plan A is a new stadium, which is a shame but tough as they own the club and can do with it what they like.
They're funding us whilst we're at Sixfields whether we go or not, protests are proving ineffective and we're not playing badly as a bonus. So I don't really give a rats arse about the Ricoh, maybe Haskell might make them a serious offer or something. However now that Joy herself has said it's a new ground we'll be building I'm waiting for that. As I say sounds like ACL have given up getting us back anyway.
For the record I don't like SISU and find the fact that we're not in Coventry a disgrace but it appears that we can't do anything to change this.
I don't think you can say protests are proving ineffective
SISU will never turn around and admit that.
They will just start doing things they don't normally do ......
So, what affect have they had so far?

Have said many times before, as have others, that this is a war of attrition. I think we'll really see the effect NOPM is having after the judicial review appeal verdict. Should then become apparent, pending outcome obviously, which of the two parties has the financial ammo to prevail.So, what affect have they had so far?
