Okay so it's confirmed we are playing at Northampton next year. That's what's happened, it is done. You all say fisher is lying about having to ground share, IMO no he's not. The situation of playing in Northampton is frustrating and upsetting but if it secures the long term future of the club, then that is fine by me. Sisu have made plenty of mistakes over the years, but they have shown they are trying to fix them by building a new home for ccfc. Renting a stadium is not a practical we need to own it. I'm not a sisu supporter I'm a Coventry supporter. I wished as much as anybody that someone else was named the preferred bidder but they weren't. I will travel to Northampton to watch us play and I will go to as many matches as possible. The team deserves our support. I believe if we get out of admin soon then we can have a successful campaign. TF has already stated that he will make ticket prices and travel cheaper for fans. They are not trying to kill the club they are trying to break even. Forget about sisu back the team of you can.
I'm going to get a lot of stick for posting this but deal with it.

Why is renting not practical? Most other teams do it in some form or another.
Have you done your own figures or just believing TF?
You can follow blindly but at least do the figures for yourself.
It is not possible for most fans to get to Northampton particularly in the week so its a bad plan.
Fair play rules will kill the club in 2014/2015 due to little if any income after expenses.
It has to return, FL RULES!
Most other clubs do not rent as sub tennents with no other revinue streams being made accessable

This is all a game of chess. You have to look at the next 5-10 moves and then make your first move. If you look at the first move, you will lose in the long run.

Your argument has 2 major flaws:
1. Even if we sell out at Northampton every home game we will still see a reduction in income of circa £1.5m+ per season or £8m over the 5 years we are playing there. Of course the likely loss of income will be far more than that. The club will die before it ever gets back to Coventry.
2. The new stadium will be SISU owned and likely to be retained by them if/when they sell the club. We will then be back to square one, but with a different landlord.
Right. Just like the FL ruled that we needed to play in the West Midlands and within a 30 mile radius.
If you think the club will return just because the FL have said it has to return then you're being very naive I feel.
Rules are there to be bent and it seems like the FL have been bending them for quite some considerable time.
It has to return, FL RULES!
