Why is it bollocks out of interest? It is a matter of recorded fact that Bristol City took 1200 to the opening fixture. I don't doubt the club when they say the increase was down to more people paying on the day. Were two very hefty queues outside. It's irrelevant though, as 1500 is still a...

Seriously? If calling a Government minister 'inept' is defamatory then we're all fucked. Compared to some of the things Ian Hislop and other commentators/satirists said about BA when he was defence secretary, Torch's comments are almost gushing. But forward it on to him anyway, I like the...

No she isn't. The motive behind the questions regarding EU funding of the Ricoh are not clear, unless you have a better understanding of what it is she is trying to achieve with that? I'm willing to reserve judgement for now. I'm willing to wait for the outcome before jumping to conclusions...

I think there a few left still. Should be OK if you call early tomorrow.

I respect your opinion on most things Ashdown, but I'm not sure how my post would provoke the response 'poor old SISU'? I am merely saying that getting the club back to Coventry is the most important thing, and for that to happen there needs to be talks.

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...
