His opinion just three weeks ago: Some things don't always work out for the best - a lesson for all of those that think giving the stadium away now is a good idea.

Yes, a bit like striking up a conversation on a bus with the boring chap sitting next to you as a way of avoiding the looney with tourettes in front. :)

In vino veritas.

Just to provide some "balance". As this is a CCFC game being shown in pubs, then surely there is an argument that SISU are entitled to the profits on F&B? You might also argue that they should get the profits from the Quiz and Darts nights and be be given the freehold of the pub. After all...

It seems as if Nick has finally got his wish when starting the thread and the other anti-ACL nutters have waded in with the usual claptrap e.g. "they have robbed the club of 10 points". For pity's sake, give it up, most people want to watch Coventry in Coventry and don't want to endlessly read...

The Trust are organizing it, it would be very surprising if they didn't promote it. Why should they promote something they didn't organize and that they, and 85% of fans, disagree with? Balance is something you are evidently struggling with.

It could be argued that pubs should be doing better since the club was kidnapped - there are over 8,000 people looking for something else to do on every other Saturday afternoon and occasional weeknight. If pubs are that desperate, they could make a start by doing something to encourage those...

The logic of some on here is astounding. Rather than welcome an event that should bring the fans together in large numbers to watch Coventry, in Coventry, some people whinge and moan and suggest watching in smaller groups in pubs that are 'struggling' since the club was kidnapped. What is the...

I remember that we thought we would walk the tie. A few weeks before, Bayern had contacted UEFA and said they wished to withdraw from the competition to concentrate on winning the domestic League. UEFA told them that if they did that, then they would be barred from the European Cup if they did...

There are a lot of claims about SISU and their propensity to use litigation ("we batter people in court"), but there is very little evidence to support these claims and even less evidence to show they are succesful. These are much the same as the claims that SISU successfully turn around...

Somebody should pass the idea on to Mike Ashley who obviously has no idea of marketing. Reduce capacity at St James Park to 20,000 and he will be able to sell Newcastle on and make the huge profit he so craves. Genius!

Yes it is unfortunate that people are confusing SISU's business model with other hedge funds. I am sure nobody would confuse the size and function of the QE2, Ark Royal or a canal boat (in this category, SISU would be a canoe, up a creek without a paddle).

LTCM traded in the financial instruments of blue chip companies and attempted to beat the market by taking positions that would yield slightly better than the rest of the financial world, whereas SISU are bottom feeders, trading in companies that are in debt or distressed but too small to come...

To be fair, whoever is doing the PR for SISU doesn't have a lot to work with given their reputation and current tactics. To use the old cliche "you can't polish a turd".

kingharvest: "I don't agree with us being at sixfields "I don't agree with the tactics employed by SISU "I don't agree with the councils stance "But I choose to watch my team, and use other methods to show how I oppose the situation". What methods do you use to show your opposition? Going...

With SISU's own costs and the council's costs that is this week's gate receipts spent and for what? To be humiliated once again. Face it SISU, no one gives you any credibility in pursuing this line of complaint. Just forget it and concentrate on the future of CCFC, whether this means returning...

So, you can strip assets from company A and put them into company B. Then liquidate company A leaving its creditors with nothing and you don't have to file accounts. You can then move all the assets from company B into company C, liquidate company B and you don't have to file accounts. Any...

It doesn't matter if they say it will be 5,000, 15,000 or 50,000, it will not be built. SISU don't have the money and they aren't going to find anyone stupid enough to finance it. It's glaringly obvious, from their recent statements and machinations, that there is no substance to Plan A. The...

Ann Lucas had already issued two invitations to Joy Seppala before the demo. If the demo achieved anything, it showed SISU how liitle support they had in the city. On top of this, I think they are now very worried that the doors to the Ricoh just might be closed to them forever.

Nick, it is quite simple - the SCG are invitees of SISU and are there to give credibility to SISU saying they consult with fans and to deliver messages to forums like this. They do not represent the broad cross section of fans and, from what I read here, are too frightened to ask hard...
