I'm afraid I still feel totally fed up after Monday so - and getting back to the OP - I asked if anyone could offer even the tiniest sign that things will improve under sisu. No one else has, so you're my last hope!

Watching us lose and play badly isn't new - there were plenty of days like that at HR too. What is different is knowing we have an owner who doesn't care about footballing success and the feeling that supporting CCFC isn't about even a remote chance of progress but is about watching a hedge fund...

A rhetorical question would mean I have the answer. But I don't. So it is a genuine question and given the majority of responses on here it's more urgent than ever if people are to be persuaded to continue going - can you or anyone else please offer even the tiniest sign that things will improve...

Jim Brown has tweeted that 'last night's official gate of 7,098 was CCFC's smallest league crowd in Coventry since 1962 and if absent ST holders are excluded it was more like 6000'. I don't know what the opposite of a superlative is, but I've run out of them - dire, woeful, grim just don't come...

Some people on FB/twitter saying under 5k sold for Monday. Anyone know if that's true/bs?

Sorry, NW, I should have responded to this but having seen how the positive thread about Swansea went, I'm losing the will to live. My despair was compounded at lunchtime today when I went to the club shop. I was the only customer. Friday before a Monday home game and I was the only person in...

Sorry, Ian, but that is not a strategy. It's just a repeat of a point posted on here many times before. You will have read in my post that "The Swansea success certainly wasn't based on things like hoping...just getting behind the team will of itself lead to change." The evidence is that income...

Do any of the arguments on this thread matter? Whatever view you take about ccc/sisu/wasps/sixfields/fans etc etc, none of the arguments on this thread change the reality of our situation as it stands today i.e. ccc are no longer involved in ccfc, wasps are the landlord, sisu have no interest...

You express things better than me! I'm aware I'm dipping in and out of threads but am up to my neck in other things so will butt out and then reply properly to the points you raised on the other thread (hopefully tomorrow/friday)

I didn't say they will liquidate, what I said is the set up is such that they can liquidate at short notice if they need to. The evidence suggests that while they can squeeze some money out of ccfc then they have no reason to liquidate, but that is hardly a guarantee of a positive future! More...

That's what we need. Are SISU going to do it? Who knows...We can all cross our fingers and live in hope but the facts of the matter suggest a pretty clear model of no investment, no interest in footballing success, squeezing out whatever money they can, and having a set up that is easy to...

Ian and Italia - there's lots of other threads for historic arguments! Are we all agreed that ccfc is in a dire position? If so, why not put out collective thinking caps on as to how things can be moved in a more positive direction?

'The Swansea Way'. http://www.theswanseaway.co.uk/2015/01/keith-haynes-swanseas-value-more-than.html#.VKz4MiusWVN An interesting read. And remember, the Swansea revival started not with a new rich owner, not by sticking with a failed ownership model and not by a new consortium magically...

Am rushed today so apols this is not a full answer but tbh I'd turn this round and say that ownership of ccfc for the last two decades has been a disaster, our current owners have no interest in football success, are not investing, have set the club up on the basis of being able to liquidate at...

Thx NW - having just read some of the posts preceding yours, not entirely sure what's happened to this thread! Will respond properly to your points tomorrow as bit wearied.

And watching tonight's game John Green is of course another v interesting story

Swansea are a v interesting example of how the wealthy input came after fans got their club progressing and has been very much about supporting the fan-led vision. Some believe we can make progress with sisu as owners. Others say sisu are not interested in footballing success, are not...

No. Look around this country and abroad and there are lots of different models to adopt/adapt as the best one for us.

Bit of a chicken and egg one. Having seen our different owners over the last two decades and what's happening with other clubs eg Blackpool, Leeds etc etc I have no faith in some rich person coming along and delivering our dreams - Chelsea and Man C are notable because they are the exceptions to...

Are the alternative options proposed as follows? - the in match/after match pitch invasion ideas on FB and twitter respectively; believing/hoping wasps will buy ccfc; or hope for some change in sisu's approach/resign yourself to the slow death of ccfc. tbh can't say any of these fill me with...
