    Again 365 days revenue blah blah

    As a marketing man I would say the answer is to look at ways of increasing revenue during the season. How many other clubs who rent their grounds look for revenue 365 days a year. Be inventive Mr Waggot !!!!

    support

    It isn't just today -- I blame SISU 100% because since they "saved" us from adminstration there has been a steady decline. Had we gone into Admin I'm sure another investor would have come in and bought CCFC Ltd.

    A measure of lost intrest in CCFC...

    I had completely forgotten we were playing last night. Here's me, a passionate supporter too ! Multiply this by 10,000 and here's the reason SISU ! Got totally absorbed in watching flowing football from Chelsea on the box, it was only this morning I remembered and looked for the result !

    My thoughts on what CCFC should do (but won't)...

    Get several vastly experienced players who are coming to, or about to, coming to the end of their careers.. ie in the Dennis Wise mould. Might be short term but this might, with the experienced young players, lift CCFC into the Championship. A team containing, say 6 experienced "names", might...

    The 1960's feeling....

    Yes, Otis, how wrong I was ! Instead of building on the successful return to the Ricoh our wonderful owners and manager simply did not have a clue as to how to keep the impetus going !

    Anyone now thinking of jacking the whole thing in?

    Supporting since 1952 as a 10 year old I now say the excitement has gone, the passion is no longer there. An all time low in all my 62 years supporting the Bants, sorry Sky Blues. Will the excitement and passion return ? I doubt it. Football used to be a working mans game, affordable and fun...

    What are we protesting about ?

    The sale to Wasps is a "done deal" - too late to protest about that. We can voice our anger (if we have any about the sale) but that's it. There is very llittle we can protest about until this whole saga settles and we know what's happening re the Higgs shares. Frustrating, but until SISU...

    Court of Appeal

    Is that to-day ? (10th October). I understand that SISU's application to question the Judge's verdict is today. What do SISU hope to obtain from this now CCC has sold it's share in ACL (including Wasps taking over the £14 million loan).

    Intrigue

    I keep asking myself why SISU didn't step in. Why did SISU stay quiet. This is exactly the opposite to what SISU have done in the past. Why didn't they threaten CCC with legal action (if they had grounds) for selling it's shares ? I just feel there is more going on here than meets the eye ...

    CCFC reponse to Ricoh affair

    How on earth can SISU expect the Council to have anything to do with them, let alone talk to them, whilst threats of legal action are still ongoing ? I think the Court of Appeal date against the JR decision is on Friday ? I understand SISU may still be considering legal action against...

    Labour group votes to approve £19.5m Ricoh sale to Wasps

    I have absolutely no sympathy for SISU.. they apear to have well and truly shot themselves and their plans in the foot. Karma ? RE CCFC, I cannot see the Council agreeing to this sale unless it includes some contingency plan to accommodate CCFC in one form or another. Me thinks that maybe...

    Joy Seppala: “We will not interfere with any deal between Wasps and ACL re: Ricoh"

    Would you believe a word she says ? Even in Court her credibility was questioned by the Judge ?

    Phase 2: Operation SISU Out

    A boycott is wrong. However, we stil need to ensure CCFC remains at the Ricoh. The current arrangement only papers over the cracks and is temporary only (max 4 years). It is important we ensure CCFC remains for the long term and that means either a) SISU buying the Ricoh b) SISU selling CCFC...

    The New Stadium

    I was one of the missing 16,000. Why ? Living 36 miles away, being an OAP in his 70's, be buggered if I'm going to get caught up in the ticket chaos and wait up to 90 minutes with the chance of getting a ticket. Sort it out and I'll be back pronto. I bet there were a couple of thousand or...

    The 1960's feeling....

    Note to SISU. Jimmy Hill recognized the importance of including the supporters and making them feeling wanted, needed and excited. The Sky Blue express, kid's parties and more. He wanted them to feel it was their club and knew how important it was to get the supporters feel part of the...

    The 1960's feeling....

    Back in the 1960's a guy named Jimmy Hill came to Coventry.. what hapened next was that the crowds starting coming back and it was the "feel good" feeling returning to what had been a miserable few years (apart from promotion from Div 4 ) that created the impetus and launch of a tremendous next...
