will it be even more of a shithole once car production is moved to eastern Europe and the jobless chavs roam the street looking for Stella?

just read this how many clubs has Ranson been linked with now and nothing has come of it.
if they have got any sence they will wait for Cov to go into admin then pay next to nothing for them

We may go into administration and get the 10 point deduction maybe even 25 the same as Leeds but thats about it.

A points deduction would do fine, will be great to see your shitty little club in league 1.

Coventry is one club i actually do pitty, what a pathetic entity it is.

Singularly the most depressing place I have ever been to. Doesn't even have a 'nice' area where you can say 'Yeah, those houses are not too bad'.

1 of the 2 bids looks doomed Lets hope the other goes tits up as well

Robinson's Coventry bid hits snag

Former Coventry chairman Geoffrey Robinson's bid to take over the club has been dealt a blow.

Stadium owner Arena Coventry Limited has dismissed his plans as "difficult to accept" and "less advantageous" than those tabled by a rival bidder.

Robinson resigned in October when five potential investors withdrew.

He is heading one of two consortia trying to buy the Championship club, with former Manchester City player Ray Ranson known to be the other bidder.

ACL will decide which offer to accept following consultation with the club's directors, shareholders and creditors.

Robinson put forward his proposals at a meeting on Friday but ACL believe his bid still requires significant work.

Coventry have been seeking new investment since February and are estimated to be in the region of £38m in debt.

Ranson has not got a good track record on completing deals to buy clubs

 

[Realist]

Cov with all their financial problems are still showing more consistency than us, are in the play-off position and have more points than us. So what does it say about us under clown Mandaric?

Cov in shite

Just announced that Cov are looking like they may be about to fall in to administration.

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha....

You're not still on about that are you? I didn't feel comfortable HF; you knew I was a married man too. Anyway, this is not the place.

Obviously their fans dont really care, a lovely 14000 turn out last night, despite their good start.

Unable to pay the players wages which are due today:icon_bigg

 

[drummindefender]

according to talksport todays the big day as to whether they'll be taken other or go bust-and dowie has said he will consider leaving if they do...

 

[Bezu Fache Fox]

I was feeling quite sorry for Coventry City fans and those employed by the club.....until I heard Jon Gaunt on the radio attempting to interview someone. That man is a complete prat and now I will laugh without a shred of guilt if Coventry go bust.

 

[newtonfox]

your all sick can you not think back to when it was us

 

[Hazzman]

I have us been told they have dug themselves out of the shit and takeover news is released this afternoon.

 

[pipes]
