    If we go down what will sisu do?

    Genuine question - do sisu have a plan A for if we survive and a plan B for if we don't (e.g. that's why STs are being delayed) or as some people seem to be speculating, if we're relegated is our projected income so low that they'll just walk away?

    Would you pay £64 to watch City?

    Apparently that's the price for away fans at Arsenal today

    The point is?

    We are at our lowest footballing level in half a century with no credible plan for how things will improve. May 2013 sisu promised a new stadium would be delivered within 3 years but 22 months have passed with no site identified, no land purchased, no planning application submitted. Even the...

    Lowest crowd since 1962

    Jim Brown has tweeted that 'last night's official gate of 7,098 was CCFC's smallest league crowd in Coventry since 1962 and if absent ST holders are excluded it was more like 6000'. I don't know what the opposite of a superlative is, but I've run out of them - dire, woeful, grim just don't come...

    A positive thread

    'The Swansea Way'. http://www.theswanseaway.co.uk/2015/01/keith-haynes-swanseas-value-more-than.html#.VKz4MiusWVN An interesting read. And remember, the Swansea revival started not with a new rich owner, not by sticking with a failed ownership model and not by a new consortium magically...

    An outline idea for a change of CCFC ownership

    Just thinking aloud on a Sunday afternoon really but as there seems near universal agreement that we won't progress under sisu but that just saying 'sisu out' won't bring about change here are some thoughts on an outline idea as to how to bring about a change of ownership - certainly not a...

    Christmas truce?

    The level of arguing on here seems worse than ever and City fans turning on each other is a real cause for despair. I criticise sisu for what they've done to our club. I criticise the council for the wasps deal. I criticise wasps for coming here. I never took sides in the pro/anti sisu/acl...

    Delusion?

    Reading some posts on here, in our desperation for a better future are we ignoring reality and disappearing off into wishful thinking or even outright delusion? 1. What is the evidence that makes some people think the ccc-higgs-wasps deal is great? Sisu’s plan is there for all to see: they have...

    Colchester Match Thread

    Feels like it's been a shitty week on this forum with a reversion to arguments that were done to death a long time ago, so...anyone else going to CUFC? I was feeling v pessimistic earlier in the week but the pre-match optimism is kicking in. Any chance of an away win? (I may have had a drink. Or...

    "Cov RFC is dead" - what about CCFC?

    I was on a train today and next to me were coaches from a Premiership rugby team plus a couple of others. They were talking about matches, autumn internationals etc but then they mentioned Wasps and I couldn't help myself but join in. They were very blunt and said the view within rugby is Wasps...

    Fight!

    Reading various threads it seems like a little disguised re-hash of all the old pro/anti acl/sisu stuff with lots of personal points scoring and the usual heroes/villains. So there's only one way to decide this....Fight! 1pm @ the Council House: Simon Gilbert v Les Reid, Rob S v PWKH, Grendel v...

    A vote of no confidence in the City of Coventry?

    I really am desperate to be proved wrong and the wasps deal, assuming it is agreed, turns out to be great for CCFC and Cov RFC. But every bone in my body tells me the deal is wrong on every level - bad for Coventry City, bad for Cov RFC and bad for the identity of Coventry and its citizens...

    Will Trust and Rob s be at Ricoh today

    Just a thought but will Trust and Rob S be there today for people to ask about what's going on, plans for protest etc? I was hoping someone with more info than me would know this thing about whether political groups might make their decisions on Monday so in worst case scenario decisions could...
