Some years ago on here, I remember somebody posting something similar to this, might have been those exact words, actually. The poster the remark had been made to, later posted to say that one of his children had tragically lost their life in a traffic accident, and that he had PTSD as a result of this. This poster made a plea for everyone to think before they post, because you never know the personal circumstances of people reading your posts.

Point being, I know the Coventry fans on here can be irritating, posting childish nonsense and cluttering up threads in which we're trying to discuss things that are important to us, but this part of your reply to one of them went too far. If they're irritating you enough to prompt you to post something like that, it's probably better to just ignore them, rather than posting something you might later regret.

I don't regret it. It wasn't meant to be taken literally and stop being supercilious. If you didn't like it, YOU didn't need to comment.

Assuming the figures quoted are accurate we still need to generate another £15m to enable us to break even on last years O/ head cost which required £35m of parachute money etc. to fund.
Wilder state in his recent press conference that we were relying on loans and free transfers, but surely if an opportunity arises we will act

Didn't realise last years accounts had been released yet.

How many companies with 8 figure turnovers that are one dodgy VAR decision (source - many idiot posters here) away from being a company with a 9 figure turnover do you know that have the COO and the head of HR be one and the same? Or is your dislike for the separation of powers just based on it not working in some instances elsewhere therefore it could never work for us?

Obviously a Harvard graduate
Villa sold Morgan Rogers, was that asset stripping.
Suggest you go back to school

How can you compare the two? The ROI on Rogers was crazy. Even though they had to pay Boro a substantial amount too.
We have got the bare minimum, and will not replace adequately, likely with another loan. A loanee isn't ours. So we're completely bereft of another asset. What don't you get about that?
 
No disrespect to Hamer but he'll be the one jogging back when Premier League midfielders run through Coventry. They've no chance of staying up and Lumpard will be jumping ship before Christmas

Its not asset stripping though is it. Its playing by the rules.

We're screwed. The teams that haven't spent much in last few years can chuck money at it.

That's the crux of it. You would have thought Hamer was one of our most saleable assets to generate significant funds (queue the "significant undisclosed fee" line in his departure announcement), however, we've got the bare minimum. Its a shame. Last summer royally was FUBAR.

Assett stripping :-

How Asset Stripping Works
    • Acquisition: An investor, private equity firm, or corporate raider buys a weak or cheap company.
    • Break-up: Valuable pieces of the business are sold off one by one because the sum of the parts is worth more than the whole company.
    • Payout: The cash made from selling assets goes to pay off debts or give large payouts to the new owners and shareholders
Come back when you know what you are talking about

This is the price of failure, the owners have put alot of money into the club but they have failed on a number of accounts. Over paying for Cannon, buying players from their mate, sacking Wilder, over paying on every player Selles wanted both on transfer fees and wages. We cant say they haven't put money in, they've just used it in the wrong way and this was always going to happen we the parachute money ended. We still have a strong first team and can probably still afford to lose Peck and Borrows from that. But it's the strength in depth that's the issue and that will ultimately end in failure again.

Less than 2 years into ownership so many mistakes ,it took the tuna king abit longer for all the shit to catch up with them ,not saying it's that dire for now ,but really not looking promising.

Are we? I thought we made a profit again in the last accounts? Then again I don't particularly follow the prs or whatever rules are now with a forensic detail!

As I have posted since about this time last year last summer's window will hurt us for years.

Is literally what I've said?
Brooks - sold - replaced by Donovan (not ours)
Hamer - sold - replaced by BBD (likely on loan).

As per Danny Hall's article, the funds generated from those sales are covering the shortfall....

Don’t know what you are talking about, go back to school, do not pass go. In between times total waste of time subsequently blocked

As is par for the course, the 3 promoted teams are more thank likely to be the 3 that are relegated.
