That analogy actually stands up, which is a rarity for this site. I agree, we are on dodgy ground if we start making comparisons with Rotherham and Brighton. Taken at face value you might say there were similarities, but in truth they were very different.

Yep, the one that ACL and CCC in all their many angry statements have never denied the existence of. Going round in circles though.

Quite possibly the most insane post I have ever read on this forum. You do realise nearly 40% of ST holders last season lived outside Coventry? If anything, the club does not make enough of the fact that it represents not just the city of Coventry but the county of Warwickshire too. It would...

And that's why NOPM is so foolish. It is the long game, it might take a couple of seasons to work (people don't think SISU will crumble after a few months do they?), and the danger is people drift away and lose interest in that time. Wasting my breath though, people have made up their mind...

I don't think I'm a super fan. I am no better than you. I actually sang as much yesterday as I did on many occasions at the Ricoh last season, and I was in block 15. That said, their were only 1500 City fans in the whole ground, you don't expect it to be rocking do you? On reflection, I'm...

They have every intention of coming back. They want the Ricoh on their own terms. Amazed people don't get that and think their preference is for the club to die a slow death in front of crowds of a few hundred (that's what they would be if they stayed permanently). Really, we should all be...

Exactly. Win promotion (unlikely, but say it happens) the loss of revenue is amplified massively (we'd average 16K minimum in the Championship at the Ricoh). Seeing as most have convinced themselves that withholding our money is the best weapon we have, then you'd think they'd all be desperate...

Perhaps they should publish it, but I can't help but feel most people would shrug and say so what. I'm not sure how they come back from this. I think this is important, but ultimately SISUs actions since that point have lost them any sympathy they might have had otherwise. Perhaps they should...

Exactly. Just think of the exposure it would get. How would SISU deal with it, what about the FL? Would they fine the club? What about everyone turn their back on the game for first 5 minutes. Those images would make the nationals I guarantee it. It won't happen I know, so we'd better hope...

I suppose I should let it go, but what am I apologising for? I have just spent the best part of an hour calling for people to actively protest. I blame ACL and the Council for much; the crippling rent, the deal they scuppered last year, moving to force administration citing a colossal bluff by...

I think it was the council owned stake - buying the Higgs share would have just given them 50% of a company with a big mortgage around its neck. Buying the council half by paying off that mortgage would have given a half stake in a company with no debt and the option to buy the other 50% at...

It really is impossible to reason with someone who thinks SISU would be laughing all the way to the bank on the back of a gate of 5000. SISU OUT chants would be pretty lame as a protest of course, but I suspect any calls for fans to show a bit of imagination will fall on deaf ears on here...

You keep making the same point in different threads. He doesn't need to because they have never denied it. I cannot be held responsible for the fact that there are people like yourself prepared to so slavishly absolve the council of any blame.

No, TF spoke about it after it was lodged, he makes reference to the JR is the quotes I posted. The JR deals with the £14 million bail-out specifically not the events that led up to it.

Nice attempt to justify your complete lack of action as you pruned your rose-bushes, but it doesn't wash. But if it makes you feel 'strong' then I'm pleased for you. Did I riot? Behave. Loud protest? No, not on my own. That would have made me look mental, and I try my best to hide that...

What? The council haven't denied any of it, so why would he need to? If they did, then I might reasonably ask the same question, but they haven't and I suspect never will because it probably happened. You don't need to silence people who aren't making any noise.

Do you think we should tell him?

I won't wait five years. If it goes over one year I would struggle. SISU will not give in though, they would rather close it all down than lose face. We need to get the club back in Coventry quickly if this club is to survive. NOPM is the long game. We need to show our anger now, and...

There was a point today when somebody started singing SISU OUT - a weird hush followed, people were looking at each other not knowing whether to join in. What should have happened, is that the whole ground sang it. My personal view is that we should be there in numbers - getting in their...

Yep, stay at home do nothing fans.
