No, this thread was asking for people to name something positive about SISU. No easy task. The best that anyone come up with was that they paid the staff wages on time, and I was merely suggesting that this is technically correct. We don't need to invent stuff or spin the truth in order to...

The more I read this sort of guff the more tempted I am to buy a sodding ST. I think I may head off to GMK for a bit of sanity, and that is the first time that has been said by anyone, ever.

So you'd rather they didn't pay them, and made redundancies? The club has made a loss since they took over, and to meet those obligations to those employees they have had to fund those losses somehow. We could fill a book with SISU's failings, but that they have paid their staff on time, even...

Steady on, she wasn't that good.

Countdown wasn't the same after Voderman left.

Well yes, but for those visible acts of defiance (which I am in favour of) people actually have to attend games.

Why do people feel the need to keep repeating the reasons why they are not going? Nobody gives a fuck.

And we didn't let Robins go either - he left, citing the city council as one of his main reasons (but of course, fishface and his shitzu henchmen had a gun to his head yada yada yada). Buy hey, why let facts get in the way of a good rant?

Out of interest, how many posts have you made today in favour of NOPM? I'd say a fair few. Why do people on the other side of the argument have to ration the number of times they use it?

I once had a season ticket at Real Mallorca. Their fans were so indifferent I doubt they'd care. Plenty of examples in England though - Charlton, Bristol Rovers, Brighton, Fulham, Rotherham, where the fans stuck by the club. Different circumstances though obviously.

That's fair enough, can't argue with that. My gut feeling is that there are other options that might be more effective, but that's all it is. I can't see Sixfields gates increasing all that much anyway, even if we continue winning games, so I'll guess we'll get to see how effective NOPM is in...

You had made reference to conditions, as though there is somehow a mechanism to negotiate after the offer was made - 'we'll sign your CVA if you do this' so to speak. Haggling. It doesn't work like that I'm afraid. I'm also not sure how it made the prospect of SISU obtaining the Ricoh less...

Well quite, but I don't think I've heard anyone argue that by attending it will hasten the return. What some are saying is that they don't believe NOPM will make any difference. I'm not sure. I can see the thinking behind the NOPM campaign, but I am not convinced it will work. I am still to...

The offer was what it was. Approaching 600K no? This isn't some beach vendor in Turkey haggling over the price of a beaded necklace. There is no haggling. The offer was the offer. They rejected it. Now they will get nothing. Yet still, nobody has managed to make a resonable case for how...

Everyone wants CCFC in Coventry, but opinions differ as to how that might be achieved given that we are where we are. I can't imagine it is a hugely difficult concept to grasp, but some people really seem to struggle with it.

Of course they won't. None of them believe it is permanent, and if they did, they wouldn't go. There is not a single person on these forums or anywhere else that has said they will support a permanent move. That is why the move will not be permanent. Those people who continue to beat the...

OK, so the pitch renovation doesn't represent monies owed, it is something CCFC would like, so it would be their choice to pay for the upgrade if it was something they deemed essential - but that would only happen if they were to return. The monies for the repairs have been offered, so that...

I think we'll agree to disagree on that. Was he careless? Absolutely. Can we blame him for a lot? Yes. Selling HR when he did was crazy. Was he greedy? Well, he was a salaried chairman earning over 500K a year, so he did very nicely out of everything and managed to get out unscathed...

I actually think the original proposal was a good one - the versatility of a retractable pitch and roof would have opened up all sorts of commercial opportunities not available at any other venue in the country (and that is still the case). BR did a lot of damage to this club, and he was paid a...

Are we now making comparisons with the appeasement of Nazi Germany? This is a new low.
