It's bollocks, the JR is keeping them silent and blah, blah, it all an excuse..
I tend to agree. As I said it never stopped them releasing almost daily statements throughout the summer.

Well if that is the case, time will tell, won't it? They weren't particularly quiet before then in the face of SISU PR, were they?
was it not the case that their legal advisers told them to stop making statements or talking to the press until after the JR? didn't the council say something to the effect of it being frustrating that they couldn't respond to SISU statements?

I'm sure the JR appeal has something to do with it but I imagine there are ways round it. They could easily give an interview and avoid all those embarrassing difficult questions as JS apparently did.At one time ACL were constantly releasing statements, although the original JR was hanging over their heads. For example, they were going to sue NTFC, weren't they? What happened to that?
maybe they can stay silent and let sisu and their supporters keep digging a massive hole.Please realise Les Reed is a responsible journalist doing a great job IMHO!
He's probing and asking all the right questions and his interview with JS was very interesting, it's a great pity that the 'silence ' from CCC & ACL is almost deafening!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ignore the abuse and continue to keep us as informed as you possibly can, long may you continue.

Where did you read that? Post up a link. Would settle the argument as to why ACL have been quiet once and for all.
No it's not. You're wrong
Yes it is I am right.
I'd love to see that if you could..
Joint statement from CounAnn Lucas, Leader of Coventry City Council, and Coun John Blundell, Leader of the Opposition, Coventry City Council:
“For the past few months the threat of litigation has fettered the Council. We’ve been unable to speak out about this issue or talk about the reasons why we’ve taken the decisions we have. That’s been very difficult for us all; we know how important the Ricoh Arena and the Sky Blues are to Coventry people and how desperate people are for us to do what we can to find a solution.
As above; I heard it. It was Ann Lucas on Shane O'Connor. I'll have a look on YouTube. However, she was 100% certain in what she said
I can't view that I am at work (lunch technically).
Okay lets say for a moment your right like Torch said why release a statement about the administrative procedure run by Paul Appleton and the suing of NTFC?
Here you go:
that was their statement when the original JR was thrown out, I would assume while the appeal is in progress the same applies
And here is the link to the CT article I got the quote from:

Time could tell you a lot of things the question is how long you got?
I am just highlighting that a few posters have said today and in the past that ACL cannot say anything because the Council has the JR hanging over their heads.. It's all rubbish.
A few people on here seem to be mixing up ACL and the council. The judicial review is aimed at the council, not ACL.
I can't answer that, but there may be an answer lurking in the silence imposed by the JR process. I can assure you the link I have provided is absolute in it's proof, as if 'chiefdave's quote above

That's what I've been thinking. They've certainly said things/released things in the past even while the original JR was in force.

Don't disgaree MMM and take your word for it however Anne Lucas IMO was speaking for the Council not ACL who have been making the statements.
I agree. The lady doth protest too much, methinks.
Look at his recent tweets; he's seemingly fixated. I don't know whether my primary reaction is one of confusion, or embarrassment?!?
He's a journalist of some repute, I understand; but his re-tweeting of any messages in his support, or those who castigate his detractors seems a bit out of kilter with the 'crime' committed

Before anyone jumps up and down in delight I am seeing a quote from Leader of Coventry Council Ann Lucas, can you show me where that inlcudes ACL like I mentioned below?

JR will be dismissed (again) shortly, won't it? If you weren't so entrenched in your views maybe you could appreciate that could mean a resumption in ACL PR. Or maybe they've been quiet for so long as for the last few months Fishbone Cash has been telling us that SISU have "moved on" from The Ricoh?
