I dont know about anyone else, but I know fans asked for our board to be a bit more transparent, keeping us in the loop with whats going on, but is anyone else fed up of the tripe we have to read in 'Official Club Statements?'

Its always the same thing; false promises!

Todays Statement (sorry if theres already a thread on this statement) states "The board is working hard to try to bring new players into the squad before the transfer window ends against sensible budgetary targets. Hopefully we will be able to add some new players by Wednesday, while also taking advantage of loans from Premier League clubs later in September to significantly bolster the manager's options."

To me, this is nothing new and isnt anything we've not been told before. What a pointless statement to make. Adds to the reasons why SISU / current board are so hated!!

Anyway, rant over!

i believe it to be true......reckon we will have 2/3 new players by tomorrow night. I am also sure we will get some loanees in next month. They are not idiots, liars maybe but not idiots. we will go down if we don't add to the squad and they cant sell that!!

I wouldn't say they have been transparent. I'd say all they have done is lied.

Love this particular facet of the SISU hate. Don't say anything? "Fucking shady SISU fuckers, never telling us what's up" Say something? "Pointless shady SISU fuckers, always spouting crap"

The worst part of the most recent statement by Dulieu is the part about how the board have no identities of any of the board members Hoffman wanted to introduce. How did we hear about Ken Bruce again?

Thats the point I was trying to make. We ask them to be more open and honest / Transparent with us, but obviously what they consider transparent, and what we consider transparent are two entirely different things!

I wont be happy until I see the 'Official Statement' stating that SISU have left the building / City / Country (although most of them do the latter on a regular basis).

Unfortunatelyl, Id be happy if the next big announcement was Admin

SISU will keep cutting costs until the books are balanced regardless of where that lands us in the divisons.

club statement

And the overwhelming verdict of the jury is;
SISU you are GUILTY, now please leave the building - (s), which part of 'go away' do you not understand ?
LIARS, LIARS, BUMS ON FIRE !!
I'm CCFC since 1956, and never have I witnessed such an abject bunch of incompetents trying to coerce whilst being suitably economic with their own truths,
your 'ivory towers' are not in COVENTRY,
post a thread as to whether you are wanted, if you wish,

Oh come on, you've seen what they've done over the summer. We'll maybe get a couple of scraps nobody else wants, who don't really want to come here, and who the manager doesn't want but has to take 'cos at this stage we just need bodies! Despite these incoming "players", we will nevertheless find ourselves with a squad depreciated in value by Weds night-and a weaker squad than we had before.

It is possible to be a liar and an idiot, you know. The 2 are far from mutually exclusive, as Ken seems to be on a life-long mission to prove!

I wouldn't mind if they just turned round and said we can't afford to do any business instead of all this bu ll sh it and saying we are getting players in when they are only enquiring about players we purposely can't afford !!!!!
Fact Sisu haven't a pot to pi ss in the parent company have made losses the last two years they will not put any more money in !!!!
Fact The only thing funding the club will be player sales because they have nothing else to borrow against !!!!
Fact They can only do one of two things and that is sell as many players as possible, pocket the money against the debt, then put us into admin. Or just use the money to keep us afloat for the next six months then when they have run out of money and nothing to sell put us into admin in a lot worse state than we are now !!!!!!!!!!
The only thing Sisu are working on is an exit strategy and it will almost certainly mean relegation and worse !!!!!!!
