    Militant Action?

    'Plod' isn't likely to arrest a few hundred or more fans if they did decide to invade the pitch peacefully, the logistics are impossible. Apart from the fact that I'd have to buy a ticket, I'd be up for it. I'd pretty much be up for anything that disrupted SISU's plans as long as it didn't hurt...

    bob ainsworth on cwr now

    I suspect that this would be using you as an interim rather than final destination in this scenario. Let's be honest, after three years of reduced revenues you're going to be in a better financial and league position than us! Why buy a team from a lower division? You could probably make a...

    The Hill Solution

    Rubbish, you don't "genuinely feel" for us at all - in fact you couldn't really give a monkey's about us as long as your club makes a few bob. You'll forgive me then, for quietly hoping this deal comes back and bites you in the arse. It would be no more than you deserve. Anyway, now that...

    Can Fisher please show me...

    Nope, but it's hardly treating the fans with respect, is it. And he's had to show the FL something, presumably. Why keep it quiet unless it is, after all, a complete stinking pile of BS?

    The Hill Solution

    Apologies mate, I don't mean to be rude, but for all of his statements I don't see a great deal of genuine support from him for our cause. Local plod may or may not allow it - I guess we'll see.

    The Hill Solution

    So do you give a bollocks, or not, because that's not quite clear? If you don't care about Coventry, then what are you doing on this board? However, if you've got an interest in football outside of your support for your own club, then you might want to complain to your chairman and explain...

    The Hill Solution

    If you're expecting us to be grateful for your chairman 'rescuing' us from our plight, I'm afraid you're in the wrong place. Without your money-grabbing chairman our money-grabbing owners might have been forced into a different path, possibly even selling the club to someone who gave a sh*t...

    The Hill Solution

    Funny, I read it as "Tile Hill Solution" too. As a native of those parts, I sometimes get the very strong urge to pop down to Ryton and apply a 'Tile Hill Solution' to Mr Fisher. But I'm far too nice these days, and besides his dog might eat me. ;) I really like the idea of watching the...

    Only one thing left now.

    I wouldn't call anyone a scab for going to Northampton. But to me it seems obvious to me that the best way of ensuring that CCFC play in Coventry, at the Ricoh, is to boycott the club under our current owners. As soon as SISU realise that their plan is doomed to failure, they will know that...

    Judical Review

    Doesn't it go through two steps? First a judge reviews the application and decides whether there's a case to answer, and if so at that point it gets slated for an appearance in court. I don't think it's even got to the first bit yet....

    Northants police to have talks with CCFC

    To be honest mate, I'm not sure there's much more to be done from the sidelines. It's down to ACL and/or the FL to stop the madness now. I'm not panicking yet, because I think there's a way to go before TF gets his dream. Laughing at TF and all his bs seems as good a use of time here as...

    Northants police to have talks with CCFC

    Actually, if I remember correctly what he said was, "I'm paying some rent boys". Or was it, "I'm paying some rent, boys." So hard to recall. :D

    Northants police to have talks with CCFC

    Bit of a long shot, that, but SISU will have to pay at least part of the Policing bill I reckon: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-17660363 In fairness that would have also been the case at the Ricoh I guess, unless ACL paid it. I suspect it's some of the costs that TF whined about paying last...

    Latest news - My own survey

    fwiw... The half-dozen or so that I've gone to the City with for the last twenty years aren't going to Northampton, assuming it actually pans out that way. You might've grabbed a rather unusual sample in your vox pop. Were you at TF's barbeque? ;)

    Coventry ground

    Yep, I'm afraid Coundon Road looks a bit like Highfield Rd these days. :( The Butts is a good day out if you ever tire of the footy, but it's nowhere near big enough for CCFC. I also doubt the management there would much want to be involved with SISU.

    Speedway Stadium Land

    I beg to differ on some of this. Chief's example is a case in point. If the other side, or the council, had put up an expert witness with a different opinion, then it might have gone the other way. Regardless, even then, after you'd won at appeal, anyone with an interest (and a few bob or who...

    Speedway Stadium Land

    Politely, in this case, you're wrong. The football stadium isn't there, and no plans have yet been submitted for one. So anyone who wanted to could raise an objection. I've been involved in PP battles too, both as an individual and as part of a community action. Just at an outline level you...

    Done Deal

    Ah, indeed it does, but I don't think that's necessarily an accepted fact yet. And I wasn't quite suggesting Leicester folk have giant feet - but I'll accept that at least some of you have a half-decent sense of humour. ;)

    Speedway Stadium Land

    The issue of people moving in before or after the original Brandon stadium was built is irrevelant in planning considerations. The council would be obliged to take the proposal as it stands, and take into account objections from residents, the Highways Agency, the Police, and indeed anyone else...

    Done Deal

    Good too see you're not maintaining the 'done deal' pretence. I'm relieved. And fair point on your chairman. It being a wind up, I hadn't really spotted you were a Leicester fan. One that can spell too. Was being the only one at school with an IQ higher than their shoe size worth all the...
