    Fan ownership, why won't it work?

    Lets say you set shares at £1K. You ask people to put down a no commitment deposit of £100 that is held in escrow by an independent third party. That then illustrates to the seller that you are serious and can raise an amount that they deem acceptable to sell for.

    Fan ownership, why won't it work?

    Portsmouth are no longer majority fan owned. Having been unable to get out of L2 they needed extra investment which diluted their shareholding below 50% AFC Wimbledon is a one off situation that should never happen again. That just leaves Wycombe and Exeter, while both are to be applauded...

    Match Thread Coventry v Southend Match Thread - Tuesday 14th Mar

    Did anyone else have issues getting in last night? For a small crowd there was an unexpected queue which seem to be caused by searching everyone. A lot of people in front of me far from happy and refusing to be searched (they didn't get let in, turning fans away doesn't seem the best idea)...

    Would any of our players get into any other League 1 team

    I think with some of the younger players (Stevenson, DKE, the two Thomases, Jones, Haynes and Harries) would do OK in better teams with more experienced players around them. The problem is there's too many of those players being relied on and the older pros aren't up to the job.

    Slade didn't know what Bigirimana was good at

    I reckon in Bigi's head he's a far better footballer than he actually is. He tries to do things that he just can't manage with his level of ability. He needs to concentrate on doing the simple things right rather than crossfield passes and back heels.

    Match Thread The worst performance of the season

    The worst thing was the lack of effort or any sign of being in the slightest bit concerned. DKE being the only exception, you could see him getting more frustrated as the game went on. Players not being good enough, lack of investment etc is one thing but going down without the slightest fight...

    Burge

    He seemed to have improved when he first came back into the side but he's worse than ever now.

    The live updates the CT have been doing all day are absolutely hilarious.

    Coventry City fan investigated by employer after sick jibe at Bradford City fans

    Bit ironic Simon doing a story on people running to someone's employer trying to get them the sack when they don't like what they've tweeted.

    Ivor Lawton

    Robins must at least want to take a look at him then.

    32,000 sold already

    The CT have got to be on the wind up. What with Gilberts 'article' on what people have said about him and a live rolling report of someone selling tickets at a ticket office its beyond parody.

    Rallying Cry

    Why don't people just buy tickets for where they want to sit?

    Racist chants

    This is what needs to be followed up on by the club. From what has been posted on social media it was immediately reported to the stewards and got a 'nothing we can do about it' response. The stewards are supposed to be enforcing ground regulations. If there was so many people involved they...

    Things that annoy you

    Strangers who just assume they can come up to your dog. My dog doesn't care 99% of the time but there's plenty of dogs who aren't, surely asking first is sensible.

    Standing/Sitting at Wembley?

    Go to England games regularly, have never had to stand during a game.

    Racist chants

    Shouldn't be tolerated anywhere and certainly not at our games. Looking on twitter its concerning that it was reported to the stewards who refused to do anything.

    Robins cwr

    Good summary from Robins, was going OK until the goal then they fell apart. Once they got their second the game just petered out but we had 30 mins left. Need to be mentally stronger and go for it, if they'd got one back fairly quickly after their second the games back on. Isn't Bigi's Mrs...

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    How do you know those who were registering later voted remain? And wouldn't democracy be having as many people as possible voting, its sounding a bit like people can vote as long as they vote for the side I want to win. Of course the solution is to hold the vote again, doubt there will be many...

    New potential site for our new stadium

    St Andrews would be the nearest groundshare to us wouldn't it? Wonder if it helps them get a new stadium built if we were groundsharing there and planning to move into a new stadium with them? Hopefully won't come to that.
