    If City Fans Were Restaurant Customers

    Something that really annoys me with the modern game. Football owners are expected to run the club like an ordinary business, yet fans are described as disloyal for treating the club in the same way. Its sickening how football supporters have their loyalty abused in this way.

    I remember him referring to Ken Dulieu as a prat during his commentary when the orange sat on the bench.

    For them not to have been catastrophic requires them to leave the club in the following state: To be at least a mid table Championship side. To be the anchor tenant in a Coventry Stadium under a stable tenancy agreement with at least 40 years left to run, or better. To have average...

    I think its just that you stand out amongst the many posters on here. You name call, you belittle, you insult, you question peoples loyalties, you question peoples intelligence, you make things up about people and then never apologise, and you generalise. This has nothing to do with your...

    Pot kettle black me thinks. Most of us could see the damage the rent strike was going to cause, most of us could see the damage moving to Northampton would cause, but you kept egging them on. Sisu's rent strike brought about the liquidation of ccfc Ltd, and with it our option to buy half...

    Anyone now thinking that SISU will jack the whole thing in ?

    Well you're entitled to your opinion, no matter how ignorant. Tell me though, out of curiosity, how would launching a foul mouthed rant against CCC on an internet forum increase the likelihood of a successful CCFC future?

    Why is he an idiot for having a different opinion to yourself? You really must learn to respect others.

    My conscience is perfectly clear. Is yours? You find one, just one post where I have said I am glad CCC sold to Wasps. Otherwise I expect an apology.

    Not really, your wrong. Just admit it. Man City, in a council owned stadium, participated in a project with the local authority to redevelop land around the stadium.

    Ok but that doesn't really answer my question does it? If CCFC are to act like a private business with a short termism view (i.e. Helping to improve of the City of Coventry is nothing to with us), why should CCC hold on to the Ricoh until CCFC are in a position to buy it?

    I don't disagree with that. CCC should put Coventry first. Equally so should CCFC. My point is it is expected for CCC to treat CCFC as a special business, a community asset. Yet CCFC doesn't want to act like a community asset. CCFC wants to act like a normal private business. The Council...

    Why should a local authority be responsible for only selling ACL to CCFC?

    Anyone now thinking that SISU will jack the whole thing in ?

    I agree to a point with the OP that sisu have washed their hands of the club. They wont put any money in, if they have to keep propping the club up they will walk away. As for breaking even, I think the cuts will be ruthless, to the point that nothing will be out of the equation. If cutting the...

    Anyone now thinking of jacking the whole thing in?

    I wish I could say I still have the enthusiasm, but it just hasn't been the same since the Northampton move. Like everyone else I got caught up in the excitement of the Gillingham game, and really enjoyed being back at the Ricoh. By the time of the Yeovil game it just wasn't the same. I enjoyed...

    Anyone now thinking that SISU will jack the whole thing in ?

    I think for now the most likely scenario is they will be putting no more money into CCFC. No new stadium, no player investment, no fitness instructor for Sky Blue Sam. The club now will now at least break even, regardless of the consequences. I can see this being disastrous on the pitch.
