    Let them stay! Ricoh owners hold last-ditch talks with Football League

    Jeez, how some of you love the conspiracy theories. Oldskyblue58 provides a bit of sanity on this site. Balanced and couched in civilised language, he makes an effort at bringing quite complex financial issues to us in everyday terms. My tongue in cheek remark was implying even he might be...

    Let them stay! Ricoh owners hold last-ditch talks with Football League

    Lord, that wasn't what I was implying. But you knew that. He's the one poster on here whose thoughts I'd miss if he didn't post. Not saying I understand everything he says though. How anyone could be impartial in this shambles. CCFC in Coventry. Simple as.

    Let them stay! Ricoh owners hold last-ditch talks with Football League

    When OldSkyBlue58 starts using a few exclamation marks and a hint of very unbusinesslike tone gets into his posts, you know things are getting very serious and frustrating! Just looking for something to come out of this League/ACL meeting. I'm thinking - no news is good news?

    Protest in Coventry City Centre - Midday on Saturday 20th July

    Like a lot of you I emailed the Football League a few times, like all of you I got the standard reply. Listening to the AFC bloke on the radio just now prompted me to have another go at them. Let's keep trying all ways we can. For what it's worth, here is my email. Written very quickly and...

    Protest in Coventry City Centre - Midday on Saturday 20th July

    If you care about your club this is your last chance to do your bit to keep them in Coventry. Forget any negative views about SBT or whatever, let's get together and show our unity just this once. This is so crucial. Just be there.

    Next Steps - A Question

    If it is in Brandon, (laughable in reality) - I'll be the first protestor. Either at the Broad street Rugger club or Speedway.

    The Football League

    Covboy, what's this FL chairman & Hinckley thing? Don't know about that.

    If we start well.

    There's a massive bigger picture here. If SISU have their way our team might never play in the city again. The Wimbledon thing was only supposed to be short term, look what happened. Those that think they are going to Northampton should think long and hard about what they are doing. They are...

    If we start well.

    As an avid supporter of over 50 years, (lot of us about) I won't go to Sixfields. They've crossed the line with this one. I haven't missed a home game since 1976. More away games for me. I'm already organising the Crawley one. Stand firm City fans. There's a much bigger picture, you know that.

    groundshare issue

    Think any sane Coventry City fan shares your hope Jesus Wept. And your final point - if we do kick off at the Ricoh, I hope there isn't an empty seat either.

    I have a plan

    Interesting Otis. The knock on could be big. Could be the lowest crowd attendance in the Football League for decades. Bound to arouse media interest. Bound to send another big message to the useless FL. Asking those few who want to go to Northampton to not go for maybe ONE game is not that big...

    This email is the league's Justification!

    psgm1, loads of us have had exactly the same email. We haven't saved the world either.

    Will you go to Sixfields

    Paxman, forget it, hardly anyone will go. It'll be hundreds. Sisu have gone and done it. We hate them. Me, been going for over 50 years. Daft Simod Cup games, the lot. I'm City mad. My dad is. Travels a long way to get here for games. That kind of scenario is repeated by thousands across the...

    Will you go to Sixfields

    If the worst happens and we kick off at Northampton - that's got to be the point when fans have to form a new Coventry City and let SISU rot in another town. Technically we won't be CCFC, but morally and ethically and in our hearts we will be. Reading the post from the Chester guy, we could be...

    Cardoza

    For anyone who hasn't heard Keith Cardoza the Northampton chairman on their local radio today. Sisu pay all costs and Northampton have some of our income streams, he says. So even there, if you are stupid enough to go, that pie you buy will help NTFC profits. So extra policing, stewards etc, all...

    Militant Action?

    Sky Blue Harry, rein it in a bit. No violence or threats - counter productive. We'll lose friends and any support if you kick off. Peaceful. We don't want people hurt. Just peaceful disruption. But six people running on the pitch won't do it, needs at least 500. BUT NO VIOLENCE. Be nice and...

    For what it's worth..

    Paxman, look at the general drift of Skyblue76's email, the SPIRIT of it. It was articulate and much more likely to be read than an angry fan going off on a rant. You don't know the exact details, I don't know, nobody does, but I'll argue SB76 and his email are not far away in an ethical sense...

    Militant Action?

    Rupert, I agree with your anger. I agree with the sit in protest. I'm fed up of taking it without more of a fight. I'll be there if people want to do this. Old fogey that I am. But rein in the aggression, its got to be non violent. The Northampton fans don't want us either. Not their fault, its...
