Oh god. What have I done.

I'd say that this pretty much sums up CCC. .

Didn't Simon Jordan mention a property developer being involved

Oops!

Future of the airport

For now, the future of Coventry airport remains uncertain. There have been plans to develop a factory producing electric batteries for cars on the airport site. This would be a joint venture between The Rigby Group owners and Coventry City Council and would see the airport closed and the site re-developed.

This would create new industry and jobs in the area, but many are keen to keep the airport. There have been objections to this, including from the UK Civil Aviation Authority. As reported by Coventry Live, the CAA objection stated:

"Coventry is very busy at the moment with recreational flying as well as flight training. Coventry Airport has been adjusting to new operating models over many years but has always played an important role in the UK network of GA aerodromes. The airport represents one of only a few of our GA aerodromes large enough to accommodate large airliners making it a viable destination of choice for business aviation. In the short term, and potentially into the future, the abundant space available could be utilized for aircraft storage."

What Happened To The UK's Coventry Airport?

It has been more than a decade since the facility saw commercial services.

I'm guessing this has been picked up on during the covid pandemic, or perhaps not.

Good point. Everyone thought he meant Richardson. What if he meant another potential bidder

Richardson isn’t a property developer. He made his money in insurance but WPS Trading Ltd is who applied for planning persimmon on carpark c

Is there any hope at all Grendel?

Cov RFC wouldn't want to move. They've got plans of their own at the Butts, and they're trying to do it in a steady, sustainable way. I know, that approach will never catch on.

The whole exercise at CRFC is to ensure the Rugby Club has security of its own ground

So anything else is a no go

Calista · Oct 18, 2022

Yes Grendel, I'd like to know that too

Bad Boy · Oct 18, 2022

Last night I felt hopeful that the club would finally 'own' the stadium and now after reading the shenanigans of today I wish someone would just fucking bomb the place to bits.
It's cursed.

What’s the time limit on claims against construction companies like that?

Yeah not sure to be fair. Seems an extraordinary amount for a relatively small time.

Calista · Oct 18, 2022

When we turned up at the Ricoh for the first time, I looked around and assumed it wasn't finished. Sounds like I was right.

Don't know why you say that - the Dumb as Fuck Council though Richardson would develop. Sepalla could just stick a Hotel application for build in her name then do nothing about it

Does Richardson or his companies still own the right to build on Car Park C?

And these same fuckers claim that Coventry is the city of peace and reconciliation but want to hold a grudge forever by the sounds of it.

IIRC it has fallen away due to inaction.

And still with the team of Dave boddy Tynan scope and mark hornby and ticket office lady and a couple of work experience staff to maximise funds for the first team!!??

Right...okay guys. Who has given Petes SBT password to Grendel?

It is a relief that they're not in a place to influence the administrator of ACL at least, assuming that they're being honest about that.

That's an Administrator appointed by WASPs?

Philosoraptor · Oct 18, 2022

From my understanding, you can stick a planning application of a 100ft statue of Ann Lucas pointing over at the Arena with the epitaph of 'I did this' on car park 'C' and it would need to be considered.

Can't be that inactive Richardson applied for financial support from WMCA?

Weird coincidence. I've just got back from Stratford, having bought a Monty Don book for my wife's birthday this weekend.

Always amused me that there is a Lady Garden in the House of Lords.

Does anyone remember Fisher talking about getting AEG(?) in to run the stadium if SISU ever got their hands on it? Someone out there will have a link, I'm sure...

It got as far as AEG giving a presentation to the council but obviously never went any further.

Not sure they'd come back in, they'd be looking the hall as a music venue rather than exhibition space I suspect and they now have Wolves Civic.

Grendel said it was made up?

robbiethemole · Oct 18, 2022

And to think SISU were the Council’s preferred bidder when they first rocked up!! Who’d have thought it would all go to fuck? Two-faced, mealy mouthed bunch of cunts, and that’s just SISU.

There was zero chance of Sisu even making an offer for the stadium let alone getting them on board. It was a fantasy

SHUNT31 · Oct 18, 2022

It was on the Wasps FB forum. I joined a while ago to see what was going on but couldn’t bring myself to leave as it was too funny watching them melt down.

I gave him what for but the post has since been deleted.

The application was “withdrawn” because the proposal hadn’t been progressed.

Liquid Gold · Oct 18, 2022

Imagine quoting David Conn, that horrible prick only writes what fits his agenda.

HuckerbyDublinWhelan · Oct 18, 2022

Can we just acknowledge, now there’s talk of them being bought out - there’s no outrage from Wasps fans on behalf of the redundant non playing staff? Surely given how gutted they were for for them they should annoyed these new potential buyers aren’t offering new jobs to these people

Back in 2014, where it belongs

Gynnsthetonic · Oct 18, 2022

So we're thinking SISU won't make an offer for the stadium and won't be given first refusal anyway, really hope stuff going on behind the scenes with someone buying us and the stadium, otherwise what's the point of ccfc existing with just renting a ground and no investment

Still there then ? Just not progressed

Spot the sideways shuffle from WH to another entity outside the group ?
