    Drink + Independent Inquiry petition + £1million questions

    It seems - if you read the Bob Ainsworth piece I posted earlier that it was Richardson and the custodians of the club at that time that let the stadium site we owned slip through our fingers for whatever reason. How or why we will probably never know. I do agree with Rob 100% though that the...

    NorthamptoN Sky Blues ?

    Not sure why they were so angry. Without a similar "plight" they wouldn't have a club to support.

    NorthamptoN Sky Blues ?

    Northampton Sky Blues? Bollocks. It'll never happen.

    I've tried a number of times too without success. Ah well. I'm sure I can live without GMK.

    Drink + Independent Inquiry petition + £1million questions

    I think regardless of your personal opinion on the "blame" of our situation I think as many people should sign it as possible. However, it does need to be worded so it catches the imagination of as many people as possible. The "all parties" line works for me.

    Drink + Independent Inquiry petition + £1million questions

    The same as on here I guess. Boycotting home and going away. NoPM and all that. I thought that was what it was all about.

    Well, they can't moan then if City stay in Northampton for five years, can they? Funny how they're "bothered" when there's a potential trip to Wembley.

    That is odd. But then again you have those on here who would rather go bust than have SISU here. I don't. Get back to the Ricoh with or without them for me.

    Yes it's simple and easy to do. Takes all of two minutes. So why aren't the people of Coventry and Warwickshire doing it?

    Drink + Independent Inquiry petition + £1million questions

    Yep, interesting read this from Fans' favourite Bob Ainsworth: COVENTRY North-east MP Bob Ainsworth yesterday welcomed the prospect of a public court battle between ousted Sky Blues chairman Bryan Richardson andCoventry City Football Club. He said fans would be fascinated to find out exactly...

    Drink + Independent Inquiry petition + £1million questions

    I don't think anyone - certainly not me - disagrees with the fact that moving to Sixfields will have a direct impact on the finances available for team strengthening. And yes, the team is a lot weaker without Clarke, but he wanted to go and his past record suggests it would only be a matter of...

    I'm not sniping. I'm discussing, sometimes agreeing and sometimes disagreeing. Isn't what this board is all about or did I get that wrong?

    Drink + Independent Inquiry petition + £1million questions

    But now you're changing tact from what you said in your original email. From "where did the money go, why only loans" to "will the £1M be given to Pressley?" And Mark is right. The boycott is certainly admirable but it WILL affect the clubs finances and away days like Arsenal will help pay...

    No, it wasn't a shock. Does that mean we got the money for him any earlier. And do you know if we even got all the money up front. Fair enough you disagree but neither of us know who Pressley wanted/wants and whether they were available, do we? Or do you know different? If you know all the...

    Totally agree. Maybe people have had enough now and maybe in hindsight we should have started something like this in August. We've got a year before the petition closes and I think we'll get there, I just think it's a shame that all those who used to go to the Ricoh haven't signed, not all of...

    Drink + Independent Inquiry petition + £1million questions

    Good start on the epetition but really where are the people of Coventry? Why aren't they signing it? If half the number who went to the JPT game signed it we'd have more than we have now. Apathy reigns in Coventry and Warwickshire unfortunately. Not sure about having a go at City for not...

    I thought it was out of order to arrest that bloke that climbed over the advertising hoardings. He didn't actually go on the pitch and stop the match or anything like the bloke at Arsenal.

    We were watching the kids match and cheering for the red team. Everyone seemed good humoured despite the dire football.
