ONE of the major problems the average football fan has is thepropensity for clutching at straws; that slightest glimmer of hope.
Preston Haskell IV is above all a businessman and will do hishomework. Unlike Leeds, the team he showed an interest in buying,Coventry is unable to boast a loyal following of 30,000. Between 1995and 2001 the average gates varied between 18,000 and 21,000 but beforeand after have been considerably less.
Consider the lack of spending power within Coventry and the limitedinterest within the local communities, any sensible person would come tothe conclusion that CCFC will always need heavily subsidising. Theglimmer of hope - Preston Haskell IV has enough money to lose on such afolly.
