    Where are we now ?

    Was on the hill last night, saw baker's goal but left mostly because of the rain but also didn't feel right as I had so much contempt for those other SKy Blue Fans inside that stadium, but we live in a democracy. Off to Walsall Saturday. A great win but I fear the worst for our club. Anne...

    on the hill tonight

    13,000 extra fans is a lot of lost income from gate receipts alone, the pie money pales to insignificance. SISU bought the club knowing the rent, knowing that cov had sold its 50% share in ACL to a charity for £6m. They are now trying to achieve what they couldn't negotiate through holding us...

    on the hill tonight

    Didn't feel like a cov game from where i was on the hill, cheer for the goal was good but all the singing was from the orient fans. Had a good look at the cov fans outside the ground didn't recognise any. Would be surprised if cobblers fans went in decent numbers.

    on the hill tonight

    Work in norhampton went on the hill, there were about 20 by the time of kick off. Walked around the ground before the game was surprised how big the crowd was as well as the normal pre-match build up but a bit surreal ie no police also no hint of any trouble. Orient have nearly filled the...

    Why has the liquidation process taken so long ? Genuine question seems that it should have been sorted by now

    Bob Ainsworth releases CCFC documents (OCTOBER 21, 2013)

    Now I don't want to pi$$ on anyone's bonfire here and I wouls love to see the back of SISU but Paul appleton is an officer of the court, although appointed to act on behalf of SISU as they were the majority creditor, he surely is committing professional suicide if something as vital as this has...

    Bumper orient Following Tuesday?

    I work in Northampton, tempted to pop along to the hill watch 20 mins or so then leave and listen to the match on CWR on my way home and then listen to the game whilst noshing my dinner. Trouble is I will probably get some abuse from the insiders as well as the hillers.

    PR Campaign Assignment... Opinions Wanted Please From Stay-Away Fans!

    Its a no from me, if there was no alternative stadium in Coventry then I would happily pay to go to Northampton but I am level headed of reasonable interlect and can't see of any reason why we are playing in Northants other than being a pawn in the SISU game, holding our club to hostage is a...

    Telegraph Poll - Can you say NO?

    I voted yes but assume that it is a sale at its true market price, my yes doesn't mean given away for £7m.

    Finally acknowledged the ccfc will never own a stadium under sisu

    The answer will become apparent in the next 6 months following the judicial review. If as expected SISu's appeal fails then SISU might be forced to re-evaluate their strategy. Northampton can't be sustained for another season irrespective of what SISU claim, the increased losses plus dilution...

    Finally acknowledged the ccfc will never own a stadium under sisu

    Bezzer I would "ideally" like the same as you, what worries me and so many other fans is SISU's need to make a return on their investment, their investment includes the continued operating losses under their ownership. Both myself and SISU have no clue how to turn a loss making club with little...

    Finally acknowledged the ccfc will never own a stadium under sisu

    SISU are having valuations of the Ricoh one as a trading asset and a second one as just the land for redevelopment - could be true or is this just scaremongering, won't be sold to SISU and why would you ever knock it down ? Can't build their own stadium but can talk about knocking another one...

    Callum Wilson

    I agree long-term possibly better for him to stay but currently he has good players around him, that could be a very different story especially if his strike partner leon goes. Money talks

    Callum Wilson

    Yeovil like Blackpool recently and Wimbledon many years ago are very much the exception. Callum will have the potential to earn more money at a club with more potential (ie plays in its own city with crowds above 2,000) Fox Danns Best Gunny Westwood all left when they had the chance, don't...

    Callum Wilson

    Yeovil the model we want to aspire to, maybe they are the exception rather than the rule, ultimately the leagues are decided by who spends the most, we have much lower income than Yeovil who own their own ground etc.. we are at the mercy of SISU and how much of the loss they are prepared to...

    Callum Wilson

    You are crazy if you think Callum will hang around with Cov, despite all their promises to fund, SISU won't be able to match championship wages and given the option of playing to crowrs of 10,000 plus or less than 2,000 at Northants then he will go, the next few years at Cov will be about...
