What's that? Sounds interesting, I'd love to hear about it.

I think back to Leicester and their situation when they went into admin. (Not too dissimilar than our own when SISU took over) yes they had some rocky years but nothing like where we are. The Leicester fans don't have many kind words to say about the previous owners and even when they had that...

At the time of the "arena 2000" project I couldn't believe that fans were sucked in, initially it was never going to be Coventrys home ground, it was designed as the new wembley. We would never had played there with it's retractable roof, pitch and 60 odd thousand capacity but he had a vision...

Agreed, problem is, like it or not, the football club is a side show to the council and many others. I'm talking financially here. The council are there to serve their constituents and SISU are there to serve their investors and it's us fans caught in the middle. But while the fans are behind...

A few years ago now, the telegraph had a questionnaire in their paper, I think it was around the time we signed Robbie Keane, one of the questions were "how happy are you with Bryan Richardson" The result was 98% (I think) of fans were happy with him. I've looked for it on t'internet, as I...

Let's not anyone kid themselves here. SISU have an end game, that is to make money for their investors. Thats what hedge funds do. Plain and simple. It's been their agenda from day one. All this talk about caring for the Club and fans or not caring is irrelevant. If the club is in a better...

Don't think the 10% who do go matters that much to SISU financially, maybe it would be a moral defeat for SISU if no one went but that's about all.

You're right, not seen one in years, the old lady across the road used to put a "vote labour" sign in her window but she hasn't done that in years. Last time I voted was for the socialists, not ever sure they have a candidate this year. Bit like the F.A Cup this elections lark. Not wot it used...

If someone wants to send me a private message with their e mail addy I'll take a couple of pics and send them the leaflet

I'd love to but I'm an old man and a technophobe lol. How do I import pics to the thread?

The only problem I have is that you say you were anti SISU but your mind has been changed and you were wrong. But you haven't told anyone who changed your mind and what they said to change your mind but want a leap of faith from a lot of fans who, rightly or wrongly, are anti SISU. I know CCC...

Something to make you smile while you're waiting. Many years ago, not long after the formation of the Trust. Mike McGinnity agreed to meet us, this was at Highfield road. We were all booted and suited for the meeting as we didn't know what to expect. About 5 or 6 of us turned up and were...

Not denying anything you said Hobo, just mean will it change anyone's opinion reading that? Those interested already know the score, those not wont even read it.

Not really helpful is it. Don't think any of us need reminding how much of a mistake that line up was. Just opens up old wounds and paves the way for a few points scoring and bitching :(

Had the Greens and Torys come around today.

I think the point that is being made is that by some of your comments, especially around those that attend sixfields, may not be abusive as in swearing at them or name calling but is still abuse in another form. Your other post finished off with saying that anyone who attends sixfields is...

Funny end to the story was when Bryan Richardson was doing the deal to sell HR he contacted the supporters club to try to get them to give him their club on the promise that they could have a club at the Ricoh, thankfully the err declined his offer.

Yeah probably :) But he wasn't the Saint he's being made out to be either!

It's opinion though not bullshit. Jimmy Hill done a lot of good for our club, arguably cementing the was for 30 odd years of top flight football that folk of my age had the pleasure to live through, we were spoilt! However he had some major faults, don't know about as a manager but as a...

This could be a half decent debate if you stopped the sniping and personal insults... Just saying
