    Cov Rugby Club Not Opposed

    Would be better if they had more than 1700 signatures. They must feel disappointed with that. Would have thought all rugby fans around the country would sign it and obviously lots of City fans too.

    Wasps deal is for 100% of ACL

    I know this is probably a very long shot, but do we think there is any chance that the reason Joy Seppala said Sisu won't interfere is because she's heard about the Wasps deal and been informed that the deal includes the possible takeover of Coventry City FC?

    Wasps deal is for 100% of ACL

    There you go, Don. Corrected it for you. If this deal goes through and damages CCFC and CRFC we need to show our considerable anger to both the council and our owners.

    Cov Rugby Club Not Opposed

    What should happen here is that CRFC and CCFC come out in opposition to the deal, declaring how much it is going to hurt the clubs. What we have had, is an almost defeatist, shrugged shoulders from our rugby club and a statement from out football club saying they won't interfere. Think that...

    Wasps deal is for 100% of ACL

    I would have taken them selling all our players and starting again with youth if it had secured our future at the Ricoh. This laughing stock of a club just stumbles from one mess into another. Just wish all sides would take a step back, take a deep breath and then give this a whole new fresh...

    Cov Rugby Club Not Opposed

    Though obviously not approving the move and having big concerns, I have to say I am rather unhappy that CRFC haven't come out and been more vehemently in total opposition. Would at least put a bit more pressure on councillors. As it stands it comes across already as reluctant acceptance and the...

    Film Thread 2014

    Watched Gravity for the first time today. On a 32" pretty crappy tv and yet I still found it stunningly brilliant. Really now wish I had seen it in 3D. Unbelievable film and incredibly gripping, in spite of it having next to no plot or story. Loved it. Saw American Hustle too the other day...

    Protest Tuesday

    So in that case a postponement would be the way forwards. Put it this way, does the vote have to be tomorrow? Surely it can wait 7 days or a couple of weeks. Whether people are for the buyout, against the buyout, or not sure, the one thing we could unite and agree on would be that it would do...

    Protest Tuesday

    I'll happily turn up at the council house tomorrow to lobby local councillors. Hope others feel the same way. Joy said 'won't interfere' but it didn't come across from Fisher's body language tonight from what he said.

    Protest Tuesday

    I am just saying we need everyone onboard just for tomorrow, just for this one day. Some seem in favour of the deal. Just getting a postponement will give the time for all the sides to get together. Fisher sounded a bit desperate tonight. I am not saying don't tell them to say no Ferret, I am...

    Protest Tuesday

    Right, Here's what I think we need to do tomorrow. Don't ask for the council and councillors to vote no, but to ask them to postpone any decision. Even City fans who think the Wasps deal would be good would be onboard with that wouldn't they? Just ask them to not vote through anything final...

    Questions for Waggott and Fisher at the Trust open meeting

    CRFC could be part of the package though, with a view to the potential of moving if they attain the highest level. Aren't they the same as us, 2 divisions down from the top? Or is it 3?

    Questions for Waggott and Fisher at the Trust open meeting

    I don't quite think showing dismay is going to cut it. There needs to be an alternative to the Wasps proposal put forwards. Sisu can start by saying they want to stay at the Ricoh.

    Questions for Waggott and Fisher at the Trust open meeting

    Would think Sisu's share would be greater than 45% to be honest. Think they would be the major shareholder in this. How rich are Cov? not very I would have thought. Would think Sisu would have much richer clients in their investment portfolio.

    Questions for Waggott and Fisher at the Trust open meeting

    But if CCFC and CRFC bought the Ricoh then Wasps would have to buzz off elsewhere.

    Forget the Wasps, hail the Bees !

    Hate speeday, but well done Bees and good luck for the final.

    Questions for Waggott and Fisher at the Trust open meeting

    It's the perfect solution. Then CCC can also re-develop the Butts Park Arena. Everyone's a winner.

    Questions for Waggott and Fisher at the Trust open meeting

    But now, in spite of what anyone thinks of Sisu, Coventry City must come first. I just feel if Cov rugby had come out totally against this deal and CCFC had come out totally against this deal, we would have had a least a united front.
