I fear you are wasting your breath. Most people just don't want to hear that or are simply too stupid to understand the realities. I admire your persistence though, and I'm not sure I have the energy to continue to argue with the SISU-OUT monkeys. The actions of ACL/CCC in this affair have...

Crowds will not fall next season. They are already the lowest for 30 seasons this year, and have well and truly bottomed out. We have a achieved an average of 11K this season with only 6.5K ST holders, and I expect ST numbers to increase next season - certainly those I know who didn't renew...

Ashdown - matchday gate receipts this season have rarely been more than £35,000. We play on average 2 home games a month. Paying £34,000 a month in rent for a league 1 club that only has 2-3k paying customers for a league game on top of ST holders is not sustainable. The club simply cannot...

Absolute rubbish.

It is stupid because ACL cannot survive without the football club. They make money from matchday revenues - why would they deny themselves that by shutting the doors? It's like you having a house that has only one viable tenant (just ONE, unless I've missed the other league club in Coventry)...

If you're not going to read the thread properly, then at least get your wrong answer right - it was 8000 to Arsenal :p

You do not have an argument that stands up to any sort of scrutiny I'm afraid. What is your point? Your argument about this city's supposed propensity to 'defeatism' is its apparent lack of righteous indignation about the untimely departure of Mark Robins? Is that it? All this against a...

What sums Coventry up to a tee is how it coped during times of real strife - the Blitz for example, the very definition of refusing to be defeated. Some people just love to have a go at this city. I, however, believe it is a great city and the people stoic and resilient, but that's because I...

I am sure if SISU were to acquire a stake they would have to part with a considerable sum of cash first. And you're right, it wouldn't solve all the financial problems, but it would help and would give the club more leverage, and crucially it would make a takeover more likely and isn't that...

No it isn't. What do you want, more anger? Shall we all converge on Huddersfield and drag him back kicking and screaming? Being defeatist is taking the view that with his departure goes any chance of promotion this season. I don't believe that, quite the opposite in fact, I believe we are...

What has profit got to do with it? We're talking about making the club a viable proposition for someone to come in and buy. What assets do we have? Ownership, or part ownership of the stadium, would make us a much more attractive proposition as a long term investment. Having increased...

Uh? Liquidation and no football team are the same thing. Liquidation is the end of the club. Saying you want 'SISU OUT' makes no sense. I want a buyer for the club, but that is much more likely to happen if we have a club that is not losing money hand over fist and is sustainable. Reducing...

And still they remain? You say that like there is an alternative. Well, actually there is, liquidation. Some people should be careful what they wish for. As for players, I suspect most of them are currently sat on their sofa playing Halo 4 and eating fried chicken from a bucket. Like they...

Uh? The local hack refuses to jump up and down with false indignation and this somehow renders the whole city defeatist? Anyone would think we are the first club to ever have their manager poached. Some people need to have a word with themselves.

Main stand will be full of stiffs :p. Get yourself one in the east stand - behind the goal, unreserved seating and cheaper. Most city fans will be in there.

The council have done very well out the stadium, let us just agree on that at least. It cost them NOTHING because all of the money was borrowed and paid back directly by ACL (until recently, and now ACL will pay the council directly after they borrowed to pay of the current loan). Amazingly...

People are kind of missing the point. All SISU would have to do is move just outside the city boundary and they would not have to put plans before the city council. 200 yards north of the ricoh you are in a different local authority, you could build one at Warwick Uni and still be in the...

Yeah, because they have bigger gates than us blah, blah blah. The fact that before this season, the last time they had an higher average than us was 51 years ago appears to be lost on them. Love how small clubs, after one promotion, suddenly think they are billy big bollocks. They'll be back...

Yeah, the season we were relegated was epic, as was the start to our Championship campaign. And let's not forget going a whole season without winning away from home. You accuse others of having rose tinted spectacles? There were good moments under Strachan and he was far from our worst...

Black would be an ideal temporary solution to the end of the season and then take it from there. Wouldn't be against that at all.
