As was the joke claim from SISU for 250000. should also be mentioned
I think it does need clearing up sooner rather than later, although I think the pressure from Higgs and this is part of something bigger. Wasps won't have bought land right next to it for no reason, the same as they wouldn't have only bought 50% of the Ricoh.
This is PR to apply pressure.
You forgot to mention though Simon about the Higgs taking the club to court but their claim being turned down in the history between the two.
Was it not in reply to higgs claim? Why would it not be part of the back story of fall outs? Strange to leave that outAs was the joke claim from SISU for 250000. should also be mentioned
interesting that people have only commented on that article, none of the others like James Maddison being stronger than ever.
Also "city fans" vote this comment down?
It seems to me that this argument about the Higgs Centre
Is it CCFC making these statements about the Higgs Centre to the telegraph then? It looks more like somebody is trying to start an argument aren't they.
You must have a lot of faith in the owner to be happy to risk letting it go and rely on SISU to find or build a replacement facility for the academy.
I never said that, was just asking who it is starting the arguments about it? It is somebody trying to apply pressure for some reason isn't it? Is it part of negotiations of some sort?
The last thing I want is for CCFC to not have an academy. Which is why you won't catch me worshipping Joe Elliott or Hoffman.
However you'd rather bury your head in the sand and blame a media outlet you claim, without substantive proof, has an anti CCFC/SISU & pro Wasps/CCC agenda than allow critical questioning about strategy for the club?

What's the crack with Ellliot and hoffman regarding the academy?
Have the club come out recently and announced we are moving away from the Higgs though? It started with news about the Wasps looking for somewhere (but only mentioning the Higgs), then followed up by a Statement from the trust that isn't on their website / twitter etc or mention of it from anybody else.
Aside from the crap about the new stadium with the academy on site etc etc, has it been announced we are leaving any time soon? I don't personally think we would as I don't think there is a new stadium.
Multiple different people have mentioned a sale of land to Wasps right next to the Higgs, why has this not been reported or investigated or anything? If they have bought land next to it, it is for a reason.
My point is, who is starting off this questioning? The club haven't made any recent announcements / comments about it have they? It is all well and good questioning it, but there must be something going on behind the scenes to trigger it.
My theory (I am not saying it is fact) is that it is do with the Ricoh Rent discussions and it is trying to apply pressure in some way on the club. Get everybody panicking so the pressure is on to signup to something.
If there is land next to the higgs for sale, I assume its not big enough to house a stadium ?
The land is for their training facility. Seems to have turned into a forum about Wasps again. Any idea what our owners have planned for our future beyond making petty complaints the the council has been nasty to them.
News flash. Coventry City ignores Supporters' Trust.
Did the trust even have any knowledge of it going to press?
I don't think they could put something to print in somebody elses name without them knowing could they?
When they were on the board they wanted to close the academy to save money.
Apparently Wasps now own it! Bought from ST, how true I don't know but surely records or ways to find out?
People have said it on here for a few weeks now about them, and offline as well I have heard it. again, could just be a pressure rumour put out there
I don't think CCFC could deal with Toads, TF is a badger expert isn't he?
If Tim Fisher was looking for land in Coventry, how come he never found that plot?
I must conclude he was never looking for land IN Coventry only outside the City boundaries.
Do you think so too?

I think the new stadium has been a bit of a farce from the start, who knows where or how they have been looking.
I don't think it would be suitable for a stadium there would it?
Bit of a slope but no more than Ricoh. Possibly and soggy near the river, but otherwise can't see any issues, apart from the Toads.
I thought that was just Elliot not Hoffman?
