Inter Milan where top dogs in Europe, Champion league winners, Italian champions, Southampton were beating Dagenham & Redbidge 4-0 in division 1 (third division), yesterday we saw Southampton beat Inter in Europe. This should give all languishing clubs including us hope if they get things right they can follow. For us to have a chance of achieving a fraction of what the Saints have we must intensify the campaign to rid us the cancer our club has in sisu. and it's dictator owner Joy Sepalla. Southampton has been grown from the bases of a productive youth system which imo sisu will dismantle here at Cov. Yes people will come on here and quote rich owner helping them on their way, there will be people out there I believe who might take us on but we need five magic words from the mouth of Sepalla "the club is for sale"

It's always sickening, knowing saints turned down sisu, so that led sisu on to us

So her saying it's for sale is going to fix everything?

More propaganda, scare mongering.

We need a billionaire like they have.

All of the whipping up the anger is getting tiring, transparent and boring.

It's easy to be negative but on a positive side Southampton are a good barometer similar sized city, club, fan base relies on a good youth system and sell stars but seem to just carry on regardless. We just need to lance the boil that is sisu to give us a chance.

Mate, she is a billionaire!!!!

Stop beefing at people who criticise SISU and the club - people are justifiably angry and you just can't deflect that or shut it down. We're not going away and we're not going to stop attacking them until they fuck off.

How is it I knew you would come galloping up. As boring you might find "whipping" up the anger as you put it as we stand today we are more likely to play Dagenham & Redbridge in the Conference than division 3.

Lance the boil?

What's with all the poetic shit, everybody would prefer a rich billionaire to come in and take over.

Her just saying the club is for sale isn't going to do anything, besides the fact she won't.

All of the "look at club name now" who have rich owner stuff doesnt do much does it?

You shouldn't be surprised that soon as SISU are mentioned in a thread, their little pet Harper will be on here like a shot, it's only him who seems angry whenever SISU are mentioned.

No, it kind of goes all ways.

Nobody is angry about sisu being mentioned, but what's going on and on about other clubs with their rich owners going to do other than get people worked up?

She is a billionaire? Really?

Writing a poem type post isn't attacking them is it? What about it is attacking them?

I'm not deflecting it or shutting it down, just don't see the point in getting worked up because Southampton played inter Milan.

All it will do is try and get people worked up.

Yes, it is just whipping up the anger. Ra rar Southampton played in Europe, bournemouth are in the prem.

Realistically, everybody gets angry about that and what gets achieved?

If it makes you feel better than crack on. Feel free to vent if that's the aim, sorry if my posts come across as trying to prevent it.

More and more are getting bored of the politics and the agendas, how many realise that shouting "sell up" over and over won't do anything? I'd much rather start to try and get along with fellow fans and things be about ccfc than all the anger 24/7.

Why would they get worked up? It was over 9 years ago. Look at it this way, SISU have fallen mightily since then, that's a positive, even though it's us who has felt the force of their fall.

So what's the aim when saying "look at the so and so now".

We know teams like Southampton and leicester are doing well, we would all like to be in their position. Drawing dodgy witch posters and shouting "just sell up" isn't going to achieve that is it?

We will find out if and when the club is put up for sale might be a load of interest might be none, can't comment on your last paragraph bit of gobbledygook to me, have you been drinking ?

No, it makes perfect sense. Somebody wins a game like Southampton and people find a way to get worked up.

She isn't going to say it's for sale, get realistic. Just because the telegraph say it over and over it isn't going to change that.

Does nobody start to get bored of the anger and want to actually think screw all of them, it's about ccfc?

Look at the half arsed petition that died, people are getting bored of it all.

We should be starting to make things about ccfc rather than hating everybody, that includes me also.

Not really, how in any way is this constructive? At least when I.comment on things like that it's constructive.

Keep saying sell up isn't going to do anything, posting it over and over isn't attacking her or sisu.the same as posting wasps go home to London isn't going to do anything.

Looks to me you are a bit marked Nick my dear, are you on the ropes so to speak. You say she, Sepalla, won't put the club up for sale, I'll say if she doesn't and stays our owner for the foreseeable future our time as a football league club is seriously threatened.

On the ropes from what? You thinking of different ways to say get rid of sisu? Hardly.

Maybe just a bit tired as the same repetitive shit, agendas becoming more clear and just think it should be about ccfc.

Is it fair that the telegraph refuse to mention the good things that go on from people? Is it fair that the jsb volunteers hardly get the credit they deserve?

No, but I'd expect them to see that shouting it over and over, getting angry over not much as much as possible and bickering between fans.(me included again) isn't going to change anything.

All of the scare mongering, politics and agendas is getting tiring and keep getting more blatant.

Whether it's sisu, wasps, ccc it should be about ccfc. If as much effort went into supporting them first and foremost then fans would get along.

Sorry to go off topic a bit, and if it helps you feel free to vent but i think first and foremost it's more important to make fans feel together. And yes, I'm as guilty as well a lot of the digs and bickering.

It's not saying things can't or wouldn't be discussed, but surely we should at least try and get things more pro ccfc than anti anybody.

Look at how many people have got involved with the legacy fund stuff, look how many are bothered when good stuff is done.

It isn't Fisher or seppala doing the good stuff, but people can't seem to seperate them from the people who do.

With respect wtf do jsb volunteers have to do with the state our club is in, in my opinion if something doesn't change and quick there will be no need for jsb volunteers as there will be no club for them to support.

It's only my opinion, but I think all of the fight and passion should be based on ccfc. It is tiring, but at a game it doesn't matter on your views and politics, you are still jumping about if we score and getting annoyed when the opposition push one of our players.
Just think it's a better start to get the fans together at least, screw sisu or anybody but get some pride about ccfc, the volunteers, the ticket lady who comes on here to sort ticketing issues.

Yes, but you keep saying that but it's baseless. People like the telegraph are spinning their shit day in day out.

Yes, I would love a new owner to come in tomorrow morning.

Just think that if fans are together and as a city we get some pride around ccfc it would certainly give that more of a chance.

Perhaps if someone was actually serious about buying the club, they would a) not be banging on about it in the press b) have contacted her/SISU/AVRO whoever directly and asked her what the price is.

You rightly decry her and her organisations lack of professionalism, but then expect her to just sell up because someone shouted about it at a meeting or on Facebook.

If someone does want to buy us, then get on and bloody do it out of the media spotlight. I'm pretty sure we'd all love to see a new owner that demonstrates they understand the notion of being professional.

For your information Nick I never get involved with the porifaral things such as the CCC or Wasps, Higgs only SISU and Joy Sepalla especially. She is the dictator of our club, 100% knows nothing about how a football club works or cares.
