Just thinking aloud on a Sunday afternoon really but as there seems near universal agreement that we won't progress under sisu but that just saying 'sisu out' won't bring about change here are some thoughts on an outline idea as to how to bring about a change of ownership - certainly not a...

Horrible conditions, excellent first half but dodgy second and came very close to losing. Didn't get the bonus point but getting the win was what matters. The OA's announcer welcomed Cov with the words 'the real rugby team in Coventry'. In the wider rugby community outside of Coventry, wasps...

How about changing question 2 to a more positive, forward looking one eg something like 'who has most responsibility for moving ccfc in a positive direction?'

Yeah, it may end up as a waste of time and if it goes ahead it will actually be interesting to see if many people do it because so many say they're no longer interested. Where I do disagree with you is that it's clear that on this forum people cannot agree a way forward. The previous kcic...

wafw1971 & bawtry - thanks for comments. Would be happy to drop Question 2 if it's proving controversial (reason for putting it in was to see if things have shifted with wasps deal etc). A few people are saying they know what the answers will be but the people who have had a go at answering have...

Thanks, Otis. Some additional comments as follows Nick's right, but here goes anyway - any suggestions for how to improve the questions very welcome. 1. Are you happy with the current state of Coventry City FC? Yes/No/Don’t know - No. That's a no shit Sherlock question. What about RFC?! 2...

Yeah, I'm just trying to keep it as simple as possible really. For Q2 it says 'most responsible' so is trying to pin people down. Might be interesting to see if ccc-wasps deal has changed things or not?

Based on talking to different people and hearing lots of different views I don't think the outcome is clear - the 2 people who have had a go at answering have given some different answers!

What amendments would you suggest?

People seem to be saying lots of contrary things about the current situation so I'm wondering about setting up a new fan survey. DRAFT questions below. Comments welcome. thx 1. Are you happy with the current state of Coventry City FC? Yes/No/Don’t know 2. If you are unhappy with the current...

Really no need for some of the stuff that's being chucked at fellow City fans on here today. Isn't this supposed to be the season of goodwill to all men etc etc?!

That suggests a couple of starting points of a principled objection to franchising/relocation of clubs and a more specific objection to wasps being here and disassociation from them. Are there actions you would suggest to back up these points and then more generally, actions to try to get ccfc...

Ok, those are things you wouldn't want. But what aims and actions would you like to see?

Self sufficiency is a good starting point because it should get widespread support (apart from those who dream of a billionaire deciding owning ccfc is the one missing element in their quest for happiness/world domination). With a new stadium, does that suggest putting pressure on sisu to get...

Genuine question and definitely not looking for an argument...If say Tony/BHSB/LAST or anyone else proposed a sisu out protest is that something you would support/is there another action fans could take that you would support?

Genuine question and definitely not looking for an argument...During sixfields we ended up with 3 fan groups. At the time I thought that was bad but in hindsight maybe it worked out ok and as everyone is never going to agree maybe having more than one group is necessary to reflect different...

Well this thread has gone swimmingly. Arguing with fellow City fans is clearly preferable to trying to think about ideas to save ccfc!

Definitely lots to be angry about but is it better for fans to argue with each other or channel that anger into focusing on fighting for our club?

The level of arguing on here seems worse than ever and City fans turning on each other is a real cause for despair. I criticise sisu for what they've done to our club. I criticise the council for the wasps deal. I criticise wasps for coming here. I never took sides in the pro/anti sisu/acl...

Hi I may be wrong but I read the situation as sisu aren't investing a penny, have got enough from STs sales to see them through this season and any windfalls e.g. from player sales goes in their back pocket. The short-term contracts mean they can liquidate at a moment's notice if things change...
