Only a fool would think otherwise, but to go forward whoever owns our club needs to own the ground. Do we wait for new owners when the ground would speed things up?
It doesn't matter what SISU do to try and make recompence to fans, it will always be in the back of my mind they only want a grip on the Ricoh, nothing more....Anyone feel the same as me?:thinking about:

I've got an idea,its a bit of an old fashioned one,why dont they just pay what they owe?
That would set a presedence. The club would then have to pay what is owed to sisu at some time ...
Great. Yet another highly embarrassing post.
Another moron who wants the council to liquidate the football club no doubt.
What we have here is a narrow minded view from a poster who thinks any one with an alternative opinion,is a Moron, well, if this is the case, as one moron to Another, let me point out, The Council has a legal and moral duty to spend its financial Budget to the benefit of many thousands of Coventry's council tax payers, Many thousands, who do not consider CCFC to be the centre of the Universe.
At a time when public services are being ravaged by Cut backs, eg School's in a desperate state of repair, cuts to our police services, reduction in fire Stations,Roads in a desperate pot holed state, these issues, and many more, should have a higher priority, than an Ailing and Bankrupt third division Football club. SISU Agreed the rent, if they default, why should the majority of Coventry tax payers pick up the Tab.
Respect, Moron Tankie

None of the income raised goes to support public services and even if it did this argument falls down if the club are the only means of obtaining a rent and then can no longer afford it.</p>
<p>This is jot the same as someone not paying a mortgage or defaulting on housing rent. In fact a private tenant would have some form of legal recourse if the contract they signed had rent that was disproportionately too high. It's far too high and virtually makes the club not viable as a going concern.
No way SISU should be gifted the Arena, its been paid for by the council & the Higgs charity, they stioll owe a great deal of money on it too.
Look what they are doing in withholding rent, running down the escrow so when they go it is someone else's problem..
The mess wasn't initially their fault, but they made it worse by half heartedly implementing the strategy of buying their way into the premiership under Ranson.
If Waggot & Fisher are any good they'll get the side promoted.. but they need to do it the hard way & earn it, though good management & transfer deals.. time will tell.
Is anybody suggesting that SISU(or anybody) should be gifted The Arena?
A more concilitary rather than confrontational stance from Mutton on selling the Arena rather than putting obstructions in the way could help, lets face it, there is nobody else interested in buying wither the club or The Arena.
Is it possible that, that stance, demanding proof that they have a business plan and will invest in players, has resulted in 7 signings this summer. I think it es important that he was not bullied. Otherwise it may have been half a stadium owned, no signings made and welcome to league 2.
Do you think if we are in the top three in league one, we will start getting 23 k. However with the release of most our highest earners replaced by I would gues 1/5th of the wages. Would that be sustainable to be classed as a viable business plan.
Basically I think without releasing the highest earners but replacing them with cheaper wages of players who can still achieve. You then get the crowds. Then the council may chat to you.
Don't think there would bf fruitful talks without these signings.
Don't really think we should be buying it off the council until they've sorted out the bins and the pot-holes myself.
Sort that out and we'll discuss a better price for them!
I still think the Council/ACL should just buy the club off SISU and be done with it...
Pot holes, don't worry about them. Very simple solution to that. Ignore all your local businesses that would love the contract and employ more local people leading to an increase in council tax payments.
Instead it is cheaper to get people from Edinburgh. Put them up in hotels all expenses paid. Ask them to fill each hole with a substance not resistant to snow.
When the holes reappear resurface the whole road.
Awesome
Ah yes, Councillor Mutton-Head as Chairman of CCFC - no thanks.
Nah Bob Ainsworth would be chairman. Cllr mutton would replace AT and you would finally have your wish of AT gone
