Well I'm not getting into a debate about the Governments policy of housing with you.
I actually called you a twat before, not a prick. I apologised as well so man up about it.
My auntie used to do a bit of cleaning in the social services building on Little Park St if that counts?
Look above your post for vitriol, mate.
Why should I hold my head in disgrace? I support CCFC, always have, always will. And I will always support them before any owner, before ACL and before the Council. Always.
Your auntie probably did work there but you have a very unhealthy obsession with anything council/acl/government based. Your probably a civil servant or something that has been brainwashed, a jobsworth in the truest sense of the word.
I don't think I'm brainwashed. I can still see if my football club is acting right or wrong, something you seem incapable of.
You still haven't explained where the £30m is coming from for a new ground?
I'd like to know how this magic number has been arrived at.

Why are you constantly going on about Walsall. We aren't going to play there.
Seems to be the absolute minimum cost of some shitty stadium that would just about do us.
I don't know what game you are playing but I cannot believe you are a sky blues fan. Read what you are putting it is utter claptrapHow is it acting wrong, by daring to stand up to a company thats is basically set up to make money off the back of a football club?
The 30 million if needed could be loaned, i very much doubt that we will build a new stadium anyway but the threat of it will hopefully get Sisu/ccfc what they want in the negotiations. I do respect the things you say we just obviously sit on the different side of the fence.

Where are we going to play then?
The quango that put the club into administration are already making overtures. We all know where we will be playing, your being disingenuous or completely stupid.
Didn't know CCFC Holdings was a quango.

I've not met anyone of sound mind or sensible judgement that cannot see that even if almost all sticking points were conceded to SISU that they wouldn't just turn around and cut their SUPPOSED losses at the earliest opportunity leaving the club up shit street and fucking off back to Mayfair to look for another sick business to meddle in. ACL have been ready to concede ground and revenue, amortize debts over a decade and offer F & B profits but SISU want it all and not for the benefit of CCFC, they want to appease a bunch of foreign investors with a bundle of cash and are prepared to destroy a 130 year old historical institution followed by generations of Coventrians at a whim, inspired by revenge mainly because they've been denied a significant slice of CV6 !
Well Fuck 'em !!
To be fair, ACL would have put us in admin today had Sisu not beat them to it. Plenty on here wanted us put in admin
Then last night a few posters on here wanted ACL to lock us out, and Sisu have moved us out.
People got what they asked for didn't they??
Without the court case all this would never have happened. We are the only football club who has been kneecapped by the local council.

We know that the club would have lost 10 points for going into admin, meaning ...
... we would have been bottom of the table, facing very likely relegation after the release/sale of all high wage players. We didn't own the stadium then and we don't own it now.
So even in that hypothetical situation we wouldn't have been too much worse off.
Well maybe it will prove to be worth it - maybe it won't? We all would just be better off sitting tight & waiting to see what happens rather than this pointless slanging match despite all wanting the same thing ultimately.

But equally we could have been bought out of administration with greatly reduced historical debt and by a buyer who was capable of carrying out appropriately thorough due diligence. To claim that SISU saved us from certain extinction is ridiculous and totally unprovable.
This is stupid now.
Too much mud slinging. I couldn't give a monkeys what response is given to this post.
Will City be just as precious to us after this?
We are an example of how 2 groups can disagree and burn all bridges.
God knows what will happen but I doubt this will result in a strong, united fan base of the size we had a couple of weeks ago.
The fan base will decimate. Whether season ticket holders or match ticket fans. Beyond the tipping point for many now. (Regardless of outcome) .

Ladies and gentlemen, we have a winner. The tiresome back-and-forth of people who appear to have taken sides (neither of which, it seems, is the football club) is purely destructive. It's pathetic, really. All this over two groups of supposedly mature, clever business types...
It is all very well taking an 'above-it-all' middle-man position, but the fact is that the fanbase is extremely confused over whose side to take. Even one of ACL's overseers, PWKH, initiated a thread entitled Confused.com due to his uncertainty over SISU's latest move in their chess match.
You might be "pissed off", but that means nada. Evaluate the facts - take an objective stand - make a case. Don't showboat.
I dont like either, but i want SISU out and i want CCFC to have a decent working relationship with ACL
Nothing here is black and white. All we have is the press to form any opinion, and the CET is hardly a centre of excellence for investigative journalism. It's not being very enlightened to make absolute decisions based upon so little information.
One possible read of the situation is that the council is refusing to sell to SISU out of some political bias. The council is strongly Labour. I for one can imagine some ignorant dinosaur like John Prescott absolutely refusing to sell to a Hedge Fund under any circumstances. This in turn make the club uneconomic, especially with the fair play initiative, and forces SISU's hand. I'm not saying this is the case, but it is an equally likely conclusion from the evidence we have.
You hear that, Nick? Best shut the forum down until Tuesday.
Nothing to do with political bias, the Councils stance has cross party support.
