They didn't even provide us with a penalty spot.

There is none which is why I'm so depressed about the situation, which is why I don't understand those welcoming and defending the Wasps move, which is why I don't understand the Coventry fans who go today. We either build a stadium in Coventry or get a stake in the Ricoh, neither of which seem...

We clearly have some of the worse fans in the country, matches our owners.

My eyes are wide open to the real shit we have been dumped in, the idiots are those who think that signing up to being underlings at the Ricoh is the solution.

Allsop 6 Could do nothing about goal, made a few routine saves Pennington 6 Solid, unspectacular Webster 5 -1 for OG Martin 6 Centre backs never tested Haynes 6 Needs to be more aggressive in his attacks, that run he made where he should have had a penatly. He needs to be trying that 7/8/9 times...

The majority of Coventry fans just want us to try the boom and bust approach like Portsmouth, they don't care about long term stability or being sustainable.

A former Coventry City fan and his young son on the radio saying they are becoming Wasps fans now, so sad. Why can't people see the damage this will to do CCFC and CRFC :(

It's a bit different as Nuneaton fans have always been close to a professional league football club and made the choice to support Nuneaton and not Coventry. Whereas Local Rugby fans have never had the choice to make as Wasps were 80 miles away. I doubt it would steal many if any of Nuneaton...

A prime example of why fan ownership here would not work, they'd immediately sign us up to a 100 year rent deal paying 2 million a year with no revenues at the Ricoh. Then pat themselves on the back for securing the future of the club inside Coventry an proclaiming what a wonderful day it is for...

You may be disappointed, I'd say 70% of the crowd today will have been to a Cov match withing the last 2 years.

So they should just spend money the club don't have and bankroll it themselves? Only for it to go pop and the club to be left with massive wage bills they can't afford if they decide to stop funding it?

They have a wealthy backer, players like Steven Dobbie who can't even make there first team is probably on 8k a week. It isn't sustainable for them. No one has tried to claim we have an automatic promotion budget, its just people blaming the budget/investment everytime we lose even if its say...

You said the other day, you didn't care about Wasps. Why are you defending them?

Ok thats fair enough, that would mean the bitching about our league status would have to stop though. We'd survive but we'd be a lower league club, would our fans accept that? In my mind the best option would be to build a stadium within the city (assuming we remain SISU owned) , if SISU are...

They would have died if they didn't own their own stadium, obviously doesn't apply to us.

I doubt it covers all but yea exactly SISU have no intention of selling to anyone it seems so we have 3 options as I see it. Build a stadium in Coventry - Doesn't look like being an option under SISU Build a stadium in a surrounding area - Reaction on here suggests that would be a disaster...

Well I doubt they can say that, but they would be putting up every obstacle and using all the power they are allowed to ensure it doesn't happen. I remember last time it was brought up someone mentioned that if the club really wanted to build in Coventry they wouldn't be able to stop it and it...

Why is a long term rental deal with Wasps our best option?

He means sell to owners who CCC would work with in regards to a new stadium within the city.

I meant what could the club do. Ok that is a possibility, either selling to a new owner who can build within Coventry or selling to Wasps owners an becoming joint partners, it's a better option than building outside city or signing up to a long term rent. How can we achieve that? SISU are...
