get out while you can!

why have they not published the fans survey results and tried to blame Football League? where is the new site we were told they would have purchased by now? where are the plans for the new stadium? why is he insisting ACL won't speak to them when ever statement they make says they are happy to...

I don't think it's naive and I have to say I've been shocked at how little support there has been from NTFC. Other clubs fans and trusts were poised and ready to join the fight when they thought they might become involved and support has come from far and wide with pretty much universal...

the only plan I can see is to starve SISU out. surely at some point they have to give up and walk away as they're going to have to dump tens of millions down a black hole. that said I can't for the life of me understand why they haven't packed up and left before now so who knows. I really can't...

That may be the case but surely NTFC fans must look at who the deal is being done with and worry about it all going horribly wrong.

If that's the best they can do then they might as well give up. Seriously how can they look at SISU and say they're fit to run the club. God knows how many embargos, relegation, administration, massive drop in crowds, unpaid bills, rent strikes, huge majority of Cov fans saying they won't go to...

I'd love to know how he's managed to persuade the FL that there is actually a plan for this. "Well we don't have the funding, or a site, or any plans, or planning permission but it is absolutly going to happen I promise. And I would never not tell the truth, just ask the Coventry fans"

Even if there isn't a match getting the likes of Dion and Hucks to come along would really add some profile and might get press outside of Coventry interested. Can someone from the Trust get in contact with the former players association and see if they will support this (they seem to have...

I'm going to try and arrange to come up from Pompey (have to move a couple of things around). If I can make it I will be driving up so if there's anyone in that area that needs a lift let me know.

Even if you use the current rent we're still £10m better off staying here!

SBT are saying on twitter there is a protest taking place on July 20th. Anyone got any info on it? Might have to make the trip up from Pompey for this one.

exactly right, how stupid can he be. he's basically come out and told their fans not to worry, the only problem with SISU is they don't pay the rent if they don't feel like it! nothing against NTFC fans but this guy is acting like a prize idiot and it will be NTFC as a whole not this chap who...

don't forget no details of where we're playing can be given until we're out of admin

can we do them under trade description? Real Football, Real Fans my arse!

Good luck trying to get the other 30% Your fans should be really worried, getting into a deal with SISU can be nothing but bad news. They will find a way to screw you over, you can be sure of that.

have they been paying the rent at the Ricoh? No. Have they been paying the maintenace and repair at Higgs Centre? No. Why would anyone expect this to go smoothly?

Is this guy all there? How can anyone not be concerned about getting paid by SISU? Do they not have internet access in Northampton, surely he could have done a quick check on Google before he got involved in this mess. I think NTFC fans will live to regret the day he ever agreed to this.

also have to consider where we will be by then. I doubt it will be five years and I can easily see us being non league by the time we come back, if we ever do.

Did you miss the part where the NTFC chairman said, to paraphrase, he didn't care about Coventry so long as he got some cash? If he hadn't agreed to the groundshare we wouldn't be playing there plain and simple. It is at least partially the fault of NTFC that we will be playing there.

Depends where it is but I imagine I would. To be honest I would love to flick a switch and just forget about football and no longer be a supporter but it doesn't work like that. Having said that I can imagine many more casual fans (the type that don't spend all day somewhere like this forum!)...
