A Spurs fan? I think your mistaken..

I think he is on about Rob S's candidate in the recent local election as the Spur's fan.

Because you are giving SISU revenue.

What if Sixfields was packed to capacity every game?

Would that mean we would play there forever more?

Would SISU actually make any money or 'revenue' on 7000 fans?

Think about it.

So are the people who went to Arsenal and other cup games?

Why is it the video of the fans at half time were amazing, shouldn't they have been slagged off for giving SISU revenue and supporting them?

Coventry, County of the City of Coventry
Active, not passive.

Full, loud attendance at Sixfields, and outside. Massive attendance at events in the city, large turnout for a Football League demonstration.

Get people in the habit of saying they're not happy.

Rather than the habit of doing staying at home, the habit that shouts apathy.

Demonstrate money is not what it's about, because it isn't. It's about a club and a culture, so splintering the culture bit is self-defeating.
Do you not think Sisu's PR wouldn't spin a full house as the fans being perfectly content with the arrangement?

Demonising, turning on the Sixfielders? Oh dear, the poor lambs. If expressing opinion on it that, well, heaven help us.
What we supposed to say, ok chaps, on you go, everything's alright.
It isn't and it's very wrong. No amount of dressing up the argument for going to Sixfields will work. Morally wrong.
An empty stadium will say it all.
Nobody can tell me that happening won't have an impact.
Nice cartoon Schmeee (a welcome bit of fun), but I'm 6'5". & I'd never wear leather.
You don't have to wave us off to sixfields with a brass band and a big parade,but what we are saying is stop saying quotes like "your loyalty is misplaced" and "your prolonging our stay" and "it's wrong" because it's simply not true and you saying that isn't helping its only making arguments that are really unnecessary !!! #PUSB !!!

Do you credit the human race with so little intelligence as to believe that?

In fact here's a story.

Fans desperate to watch Coventry, but can't, as even if they wanted to it's physically impossible for them to get into the ground they've been given, as for some baffling reason they move to a smaller capacity. It's not about the money, that's the thing... money is the province of owners, not the fans who have been dragged into this brave new world.

So like the story every cup final day, there are faces of men unable to watch their team, the quiet sobbing of children who turn up and have to go away again disappointed; not through their actions but those of others. After all, if they used a bigger ground in the right city, then there would be room for all and the tears would turn to smiles as everyone sings together.

In a display of solidarity fans inside and out sing together and never lose. Cut to the Ricoh and there, too, are others unable even to travel singing together also.

This is one mass, one body united not by money but by spirit, what football really is... while those with no understanding of that deny the opportunity for people to watch their team, their club.

That's a better story to my mind.

As opposed to no bugger turns up, nobody cares.

Think about it.

They would see it as they / the club still had support despite being 35 miles away, and may possibly look further afield than the "Coventry area" for a new ground ?

That's a good call.


With the added bonus of increasing the playing budget while we're at suxfields. Yeah right.

What did you say again?

I haven't quite got your message.

Now, it's only my opinion, but you're a fucking moron.

It's not only your opinion. And there is a wealth of evidence!

You have sunk to some kind of level Norman.
Are you frothing at the mouth yet? .
You don't like being disagreed with do you.
Oh dear Norman, go on show yourself up a bit more.
A bit like the our chief moderator.
Who should know better.

Yes your level. ;) just because people don't swear, it doesn't mean they can't be insulting.

Know better about what?

You seem to associate abuse exclusively with the use of agricultural language. It is not. You insult a portion of the fan base with your smug and divisive twaddle.

I actually think you are even more of a cretin than No Fitness Test With Sisu and boy you have to work it to achieve that accolade.

FWIW, if I wanted to ensure fans didn't unite in an effective body against my investment fund... I'd choose the odd character like Spionkop to disrupt.

Meanwhile, if I wanted people to unite against SISU, I'd choose a Grendel!

Yep, if ever cretins were looking for a leader...

If you cheerfully greeted people with 'how's it going you bunch of pricks!' this would be far more abusive than 'with respect, I admire you're a fan but you're morally bankrupt and part of the reason the club is dying'

It's only if you use keywords you see, not two-faced passive-aggressive cowardice or anything.

How much time do you think they have need a full time job to be able to do that.


Mods used to ensure that as much as they could, threads stayed on topic.

Now they all decend into :slap:
