Not sure. There seemed to be a lot of support of such an idea on here when it was mooted. Perhaps we should kick start the idea again. I think if more turned up at the Ricoh every home game than did at Sixfields it would show that the support for the club is still there, but that we simply...

Same here Nick. I feel my club has been taken away from me, so the only way I would get to see the City is if I went to away games, but that is simply not possible.

I fear if the club did get wound up then a lot of fingers would be pointing at all those who didn't go to Sixfields in terms of who was to blame.

It's a good solution for the Rioch for sure, to have two tenants. Whether that would mean a much reduced rent as a result though is debatable.

I won't go either on principle. Just saying that if I did want to go it would be a problem.

About what? Protest you mean? I really liked the idea of thousands turning up at the Ricoh every home game and having a bit of a rally and barbecue, kick about, whatever. Thousands turning up in Cov every home game to make the point that is where the club should be.

Think there are a fair few who can't go for logistical reasons to be fair, Ferret. It's not just that it's 34 miles, it's the fact of the travel time too. When we were at the Ricoh I could get there for 2.15. This would be my going straight from my home (having got home just after 2 p.m.) I was...

Thing is Ferret, an awful lot more of us would do it, if not for the fact we are so vehermently against the move to Northampton that to travel to Northampton when the whole point is that Northampton is too far to travel to due to the enormous distance it is from Coventry, it would all be a bit...

Well that's my fear. Not that people will be happy with the situation, but that they will just get used to it and accept it and then after 3-5 years won't be too miffed if we don't move back at all.

Well you would think there are two ways of going about this to show our disdain of the club being moved. 1. Don't attend and make a statement, such as now and show that 90% of the fans will not attend Sixfields. 2. Go and then protest at the games. This surely though would be totally...

I'm a terrible fan then, cos I've lost count the amount of times ny dad has asked me how they played and I have said 'they were rubbish.'

Wouldn't say they believe they are doing the right thing, just that they feel they want to watch their football team play football.

Well you would have to say that if ACL did get another tenant in it would then surely aid Sisu's case for building a new ground, simply on the basis that they then would have nowhere in Coventry to play.

As in when I used to come home from the Ricoh on many a Saturday and my missus would say 'How did they get on?" And I would say 'they played poorly.' That sort of revealing?

Yeah, from small acorns and all that.

As I've said on numerous occasions, this surely should have nothing to do with how well we are doing on the pitch. If you are opposed to our playing home games 34 miles away, then it should make no difference whatsoever whether we are 20 points clear at the top, or 20 points adrift at the...

It's a very fair point. Were there AFC Wimbledon fans coming on here and asking City fans to boycott the game? I do understand what Nick is saying and personally I wouldn't have felt comfortable attending the Milton Keynes game as I felt the relocating of the Dons was entirely wrong. I do...

Just think that surely City fans's argument has to be; 1. We are playing 34 miles away. 2. That we are likely to do so for the foreseeable future. 3. That the talk is of building a much smaller stadium with a vastly reduced capacity when we have a perfectly decent stadium here already. 4...

Good luck explaining that level of intransigence to your kids, family and loved ones then.

What if it was 99.999% in Coventry but one part of the east stand jutted out ever so slightly and was just in Bedworth, would you still not go?
