You are appalled that we think that that bad relationships may have an influence on decisions or that money may also have played a role in decision making?
CCFC are either a part of the culture or they're not. It shouldn't be dependent on money, or bad news, or court cases or anything of the sort. The fact that fans think that is the case and it's acceptable is appalling IMO.

The council are more against the current owners not the club but I don't think they've ever taken a pro CCFC stance. Lets not forget that one of the reasons we were in such a poor financial situation allowing sisu to take control was because of the restrictive rent arrangements enforced on the club by the council.I don't believe that the council ARE anti CCFC at all. I think they are just anti the current owners of CCFC.
True, but I don't believe they are anti Coventry City. You have to remember that many councillors are indeed City supporters.The council are more against the current owners not the club but I don't think they've ever taken a pro CCFC stance.

I agree with you but if you compare our council with those of Doncaster and Swansea for example and what they've done for their respective clubs then it doesn't make them look the friendliest. A premiership football team is worth millions to the local economy every year and, in my opinion, our council has seen the football club as a direct source of income rather than something that can generate wider revenues for the community.True, but I don't believe they are anti Coventry City.

Really? So you don't agree with Stupot's post? Which I believe sums it up very well. CCFC fit into the cities culture via FA cup, Jimmy Hill and recently checkatrade. Not exclusive to just these. Now when doing the presentation, have they covered Wasps losing the league or Wasps winning? Would they include CCFC relegation or clips of the 87 victory parade?
It's a combination of anti CCFC feeling from the council and we're skint. Yet people seem to think the council are not out to marginalise us. Some may argue with fans and a council so anti CCFC, that we have owners we deserve.
Appalled that people think because SISU and the council don't like each other, it's ok to erase CCFC from the cultural side of the City. Not sure what is hard to understand.
The council say the relationship is broken. There is no trust between the parties. The parties being CCC and SISU. Nothing to do with them trying to marginalise CCFC. They are not talking to each other. Until this JR is dead and buried it will remain that way. After that is the time to start repairing things if that is even possible.
I give up. We're now on to the councillors are CCFC fans. The same councillors who voted to sell the stadium built for us to a London rugby team. They can do no wrong in some peoples eyes and are excused on everything they do. They don't like the club, have little affinity to it (just like big bad SISU), have only ever seen the club as what they can get out of it. There is examples given by liquid gold but they'll be downplayed by people as SISU caused it, CCFC are responsible for themselves etc. It's tiresome. SISU are shit football club owners without doubt. The council are shit at running a city, including the way they treat both the football club and rugby club. There is nothing good about either organisation. Some won't have it though, too busy on a moral crusade against a Cayman Island hedge fund whilst applauding a Maltese hedge fund for taking the opportunity created by the Cayman Island hedge fund. It's farcical.
Again, this isn't the council running it. You are hinting at the council getting other independent charities to do things based on their bad relationships.
lol councillers are ccfc fans
hahahaha
So what's the relationship with the council got to do with anything? You keep throwing out so many different lines, which is why I said it seems like desperation.
Paying into the kitty doesn't decide who is and isn't part of the culture.
Being a sponsor helps getting you into the picture, which is obviously why they paid good money to get in. The council are around somewhere in this bid. I doubt very much if they have no influence on how their city is represented.
I give up. We're now on to the councillors are CCFC fans.
Some are.lol councillers are ccfc fans
hahahaha
I don't believe that the council ARE anti CCFC at all. I think they are just anti the current owners of CCFC.
You forget that is what a load of our supposed fans are doing anywayNah, don't agree with that. If so, they would have helped the club in some way, not shafted it just to spite the owners.
Exactly. People are just saying how it is, not that they accept it or agree with it.No one says it is ok. It is reality, but not Ok. The situation is not hard to understand.
Very valid point. Lots of fans shafting the club, rightly or wrongly with the NOPM stance.You forget that is what a load of our supposed fans are doing anyway
Facts are not always nice.
What are you on about now?
our council do not deserve it
Exactly. People are just saying how it is, not that they accept it or agree with it.

More importantly the people of Coventry deserve it.
There excusing it. It's simple, do you think both CCFC and CRFC are part of the cities culture? If yes, all the other stuff is irrelevant to the topic, which is a culture bid.
For welcoming an out of town rugby club despite being up in arms about their football club? If there was an award for hypocrisy and double standards we'd win it at a canter.
Have CCFC and CRFC sponsored the bid it as well?
Or is it just Wasps and Ricoh?
And your answer?
Read the thread rather than again just proving you haven't got a clue.
