These comments were always a bit mystical at the time
BBC Sport - Football - Coventry chairman Ray Ranson rules out Ricoh ownership
Go on then I’ll buy it, I need to get to sleep tonightI've just heard some interesting news from my mate who is ITK!
Why did Ranson leave? I can’t remember
“We can’t afford to exercise the option and that’s it. I think the day we get in the Premier League then we have a conversation about it but, until then, we are a tenant and very well looked after by ACL and that’s where we are.”

I can’t believe Sisu would buy a football club and have no interest in buying the stadium associated with it.
But here we are.
Maybe he is the money behind the Wasps rescue, involvement dependant on him getting the stadium though.But Ashley has had links to Wasps.
Wasps apparently need to play in their ‘home’ for two years when reforming.
The fact that FRP have rushed this through without letting SISU have a sniff (if they were even interested) means it could be plausible.
I just want us to own a stake in the ground and not have them around. Not too much to ask.
Great fishing. New Rod?I've just heard some interesting news from my mate who is ITK!
That's nice.I've just heard some interesting news from my mate who is ITK!

Some shady reason if I remember. Late in 2010, after SISU turned off the tap, he went on to say
At least until the WC break I believe Pete.Has it been confirmed that home games are ok for the foreseeable!!
Was he replaced by the ‘Super Board’ with Orange Ken and the text in your subs bloke
Seemed to me in hindsight Ranson wasn’t really a bad egg
Ahh ‘Uncle Ray’ [cringe]…his viewpoint was lauded at the time too.Some shady reason if I remember. Late in 2010, after SISU turned off the tap, he went on to say
Cheers mate. Now I never said my mate was ITK in relation to the club. However, he does work for Tesco and there is a club card special on Kit Kats coming up.Go on then I’ll buy it, I need to get to sleep tonight
Just checking I know robins was hopeful before the game but didn’t know if it had been confirmedAt least until the WC break I believe Pete.
You need to share... I've just been told it's 100pc Ashley. Ground only. There are worries within the club regarding this. More will be known tomorrow.....I've just heard some interesting news from my mate who is ITK!

You would need some sort of permission first, and probably a reason other than just fancying doing it. Probably even more tricky if it’s a mid terrace.Fact remains that literally nothing was stopping Sisu making a bid, just like last time. If they'd actually bid and failed I'd be with you, but all along they've said they don't want it. Maybe they were telling the truth?
How do demolitions happen then?

It's not pointless if you like Kit KatsEdit... just seen your pointless post
It's not pointless if you like Kit Kats
The ACL statement this morning pretty much confirmed business as usual.Just checking I know robins was hopeful before the game but didn’t know if it had been confirmed
Take a break will you.It's not pointless if you like Kit Kats
Ranson did a proper number on Joy.Interesting that it started out as 'yeah, we'll probably buy the option after a while', then went to 'well, we'll buy it when things start to pick up', to 'yeah no chance got no money'.
Then he disappeared
Exactly. assume we’ll be sold to Ashley until SISU say otherwise.Load of bickering here for nothing tonight.
CCC are shitbags who would happily fuck over the club for a freddo - nothing new
SISU couldn’t be persuaded to change there ways by the visits of three ghosts on Christmas Eve - standard.
Sisu will sell to Mike Ashley. Until they start on the sob stories I’m certain of it.
Ranson did a proper number on Joy.
Punted his “model” to Soton and others then got CCFC.
Got her to spend 7m on club then “22m” (Source: Fisher) on players and high wages etc. Joy thought that we had £22m )or whatever) worth of assets. Didn’t understand contract rundown.
£3m or whatever Westwood declined new contract. Dawned on Joy that her “investments” could potentially be worth FA.
Went into panic mode.
Rest is history
I doubt she was personally involved in any of it at that time - we’d probably have been better off if she had been from the start to be fair.She admitted to as much. Had she done some due diligence she'd probably never have got involved or instead just gone straight for the stadium.
Cheers mate. Now I never said my mate was ITK in relation to the club. However, he does work for Tesco and there is a club card special on Kit Kats coming up.
That literally does no good for anybody.Just hope the one step back isn't CCFC going into admin -10 points
No fucking deal on apple pies though
Ashley will buy the club and arena. Inhale an apple pie to celebrate, die, then sisu take over them both.Here's hoping Ashley stays clear of the McDonald's ones
