They'll pass that on and get back to you
They'll pass that on and get back to youThe only problem being that the trust doesn't like the wording of that one so they wont sign. They prefer Joy and Timmy as opposed to Timmy and Joy.
I would hope and expect Boddy for us and Eastwood for Wasps to show up and hopefully someone from the council.Will be interesting to see who does turn up.
It is vital that people like David Johnson, Tum Kalns etc aren't involved in this. There needs to be some separation between the Trust and groups that are tweeting about 'SISU scum' if they want to be taken seriously.Can just see this being a massive w***s/CCC love in for 90mins. Just a chance to bash SISU for how they've fucked up our chances of playing at the Ricoh next season.
What event have they announced, is it ccfc related ?Why have we announced another event at The Ricoh, this time in June when our deal runs out in May? I've got the feeling that something has been done in the background regarding us staying
Nah, just get some comedy fish masks and a decibel meter.I would hope and expect Boddy for us and Eastwood for Wasps to show up and hopefully someone from the council.
Assuming they do Boddy will say there's nothing he / the club can do to stop the legals and they want to stay at the Ricoh.
Eastwood will say they won't talk unless the legals are dropped.
Council will say nothing to do with us. Which leads on to the next point.

The meeting needs to be strongly moderated and steered. Its not good it just descending into SISU bashing, as much fun as that is, or a Q&A. Assuming the three parties above all show up and give their usual statements then the meeting needs to proceed accepting that Boddy can't get the legals dropped. Otherwise it will be a couple of hours of people ranting and nothing being achieved.
The big questions for me are:
Do CCFC have a worse case scenario plan is Wasps continue to refuse to talk. They have said no but press them on it. Will they just wind the club up and that's it?
Are Wasps prepared to maintain their stance even if it means Coventry City ceasing to exist? Should be made very clear to them supporters won't just sit back and accept this.
How are Wasps acting in the best interests of their shareholders to turn away business when they are losing money (not just the rent, decrease in value of naming rights, parking contract, f&b contracts etc). Don't just accept the 'we don't need the football club' rubbish. We've been bullshitted with that one before by Lucas.
The council need to explain the discrepancy between their statements when the Ricoh was sold and now. The 'it was only for the length of the current contract' response doesn't stand up to any scrutiny as they said the same about CRFC and they have never had a contact to play at the Ricoh.
What are the council doing to ensure the future of the club. If they say nothing to do with us they should be pushed as there is clearly a huge economic benefit to the city in having a football club.
Hoping to make it along but currently stuck in Birmingham as my company has a policy of making people do unpaid overtime rather than employing enough people to actually do the job.

Hope you do manage to get there Dave these meetings need people with common sense who can contribute in a positive way.I would hope and expect Boddy for us and Eastwood for Wasps to show up and hopefully someone from the council.

Thanks Dave. This post is a perfect example of what we want and need. Hopefully you make it.
So the Sky Blues Trust are being proactive, have invited all participating parties including any fans who would like to come along, have organised a meeting trying to find the way forward and it is met with a comment like that. What in your opinion should they do?I've just gone forward in my time machine and found the following:
A motion was passed that nobody liked Timmy or Joy and we're going to do everything in our power (which is absolutely nothing) to ensure that we're at the Ricoh next season. We also said that some of us won't go to any games until SISU are gone.
Happy to help.
I'm in. Surely we can get plenty of free tickets and turn up en mass and ruin the egg chasers day. They'll see sense then that CCFC fans won't roll over and the people of Coventry won't stand by while they force us out.The way things are going i can see 8000 fans Picketing the WASPS games to bring this debacle to an end
Sounds good to me.Can just see this being a massive w***s/CCC love in for 90mins. Just a chance to bash SISU for how they've fucked up our chances of playing at the Ricoh next season.

Sorry, running late. How are we playing ?
Appreciate your efforts communicating things. Am assuming in the effort to put tweets out there the general gist has been lost however. Reading them, it currently appears to be taking little direction in informing us what the next steps for all parties are, and some big / random questions and statements.I'll put them in this thread
Sorry, running late. How are we playing ?
We got to 7 tweets before someone mentioned a Phoenix club.I'll put them in this thread

Hope that’s the case. If not it’s exactly as some of the less charitable posts in this thread suggested.Am assuming in the effort to put tweets out there the general gist has been lost however.
Nobody by all accounts. Not even Boddy.Curious to see who has turned up representing 'the interested parties'
Chair took a nasty bobble to be fair.Chaplin there? And if so, did he go to sit down and miss the chair ?
We got to 7 tweets before someone mentioned a Phoenix club.
There’s no point in having a plan to sort this out if those who are sorting it have the same agenders!I'm out.
David Johnson?
Nobody by all accounts. Not even Boddy.
Shows how deluded this all is. Even for the massive local derbies against the likes of Halesowen and Stourbridge would we really need to be renting a 32K capacity stadium. New club would be bust with a season or two.Dave Johnson: If this was to happen we would probably start off somewhere around where Hereford ended up. It is however a distinct possibility that a Ricoh deal would be possible
