    Saturday's Boycott/Protest

    Crowsnest - are you sure? I thought the shares were simply handed over to SISU with nothing in return. La Lucha - point taken and I will try to remedy the website as soon as I can

    Saturday's Boycott/Protest

    Wonder how much an advert in the match day programme would be?

    Saturday's Boycott/Protest

    Porky is a regular poster on GMK and has been opposed to any form of protest from day one so I tend not to take his posts to heart too much. As far as follow up actions that are planned those under discussion include getting a mass migration (legally) to blocks 1 and 2 to be right by Directors...

    do you all really think its just SISU to blame

    At the time LBB it was a choice of Ray Ranson backed by SISU or liquidation - the key phrase was beggars couldn't be choosers.

    Saturday's Boycott/Protest

    The biggest enemy of any protest is apathy - people sitting back and hoping that others will sort it out or that it will sort itself out. If you want to make a difference join us, even if its just for the half hour. Is giving up 15 minutes of one game too much to ask to try and save your team...

    do you all really think its just SISU to blame

    And council is perfectly within its rights to do so - without the council there would be no Ricoh at all as the club, under Richardson, had completely screwed up the project and it was in real danger of folding. The council rescued it and now has a valuable asset which it has to manage for the...

    Save Our City Meeting

    One of the aims of the SOC was to get supporter representation on board as one of the failings of the current board has been the fact that they were totally out of touch with the needs or concerns of the fans. This is something we would push for with any new owners.

    Save Our City Meeting

    Bad language will be tolerated as it is with any football crowd what they said won't be is aggressive or threatening behaviour. More banners the better but they won't be allowed into ground. If Hoffman is Chairman then we will all be celebrating the demise of SISU.

    Takeover News!!!!!!!

    The key phrase in all this is respect - respect each other as we are all cov fans, respect each others rights to differing views whether its about a player, a performance, a manager or even a protest. If we all agreed about everything this forum would be redundant - obviously I am all for the...

    Keogh - A muthaf**kin Inspiration

    Keogh is a modern day Big Mo - any technical deficiencies are made up for with effort, heart and spot in 100% attitude. Worthy captain leading by example.

    Takeover News!!!!!!!

    If SISU are gone then it would be a bit pointless to protest against them wouldn't it? And if they're gone then wouldn't be within our rights to celebrate - As for future actions then we will decide after Saturday if SISU are still there and will do whatever we think will help rid our club of...

    Takeover News!!!!!!!

    Covmad aren't saying a deal has been done - they are simply saying at game today lots of rumours were flying around about a takeover being done. That is true but there is a big gap between rumours and an actual event. Best to keep fingers crossed and hope that something positive is happening in...

    Another (temporary) Director of Football

    Fisher is not a football man but a finance expert so it makes sense to get someone in to oversee the transfers in (hopefully) and out (probably) who has not only done it before but is someone that he has worked with before. Love a conspiracy theory but I cannot see one here.

    update(takeover those of you who want to read it)

    It is the ownership of the Stadium that makes SISU's tenure completely bankrupt - neither the Council nor the Higgs Charity will sell to a company whose operational business model is to reduce costs, strip out assets and sell up as quickly as possible. Obviously they have made a total pigs ear...

    update(takeover those of you who want to read it)

    I think we should bare in mind that both the Higgs Charity and the Council have a responsibility to make sure that whoever takes control of ACL does so with a proper plan for the longevity of the business, the Arena, the surrounding area, job creation etc. Its a much bigger decision than simply...

    Unless you're trying to find out who our owners are - not even the power of Google or even greyskull can reveal that dark secret

    update(takeover those of you who want to read it)

    Transfer window was introduced to firstly placate the EU over employment laws as there was a real danger that it could scrap transfers altogether and players would be free to move from club to club at the drop of a hat just like in ordinary jobs and no transfer fee would be paid as this could...
