    Coventry City fans to discuss possibility of supporter-led takeover

    Tony are you watching the stream? I don't see how you can be watching and not think a boycott is being pushed. We've had the Palace bloke in the CT saying the fans need to turn up and the Pompey chap and Supporters Direct tonight. The same advise is coming from everyone and the various...

    Coventry City fans to discuss possibility of supporter-led takeover

    If you're prepared to chuck a grand in for a share I'm sure you'd buy a season ticket but doesn't that make the assumption that 7000 people would buy a share?

    That would be like when SISU came in. You'd have Jan and Moz on CWR asking people to hand their shares over so a new owner can take us back to the PL.

    So to sum up so far: We need a willing seller; Important for the Trust to maintain a good relationship with the owner / chairman; Important to have a council supportive of the football club; Club would need to run at break even; Wouldn't be able to compete above L1 / L2 level as clubs spend too...

    Coventry City fans to discuss possibility of supporter-led takeover

    Chap from Supporters Direct talking (missed his name), bit of history to start off with. Now onto the more important stuff. An average £1.7m a season loss for teams in L1, didn't give a figure for Championship but said it was silly money.

    12,570 last season, 9,332 the season before. Tickets £18-20 last season, £22-27 season before. Do you think ticket revenues were more last season or the season before?

    July 2009 we sold Dann and Fox. So before they went under Ranson we'd also paid money for Eastwood, Westward, Gunnarson, McPake and Bell.

    Anyone else watching the Oompha Loompa become president?

    Its not been a glorious start. Odds on Trump not lasting the full term down to 5/2. The alternative facts thing is like something out of 1984. He might also be in trouble because of his twitter account, which should surprise nobody. The Presidential Records Act and Freedom of Information Act...

    Coventry City fans to discuss possibility of supporter-led takeover

    As far as anyone can tell money isn't being taken out so as I see it increasing the crowds does two things: 1) increases the money coming in to the club therefore giving us more to spend. Sure when it comes to it that might not happen but that's a fight to have then rather than just dismissing...

    What Sporting Event ?

    Did the tour when I was out there for a couple of days working. There was a Sheffield Shield match going on and we saw Steve Waugh get a century. Wasn't much busier than a country championship game.

    If we go down will Mowbray go down as one of our worst ever managers?

    Whatever your opinion on the budget I doubt there's many who thing we are in the bottom 3 or 4 for budget so you have to say with what he had to work with he massively underperformed. We had weeks of just waiting for deals to be finalised followed by what seemed to be a made rush to get anyone...
