Come on SBT, let's make it happen!
Everybody else is doing it!
And say what? We choose to support our CCFC. If anything the move saves us money. We don't have any contract with the club. Are you serious?
The first thing is to seek appropraite advice to see where the FL stand - not sure what you mean by the move saving us money - bizarre!
Beneficial ownership:thinking about:Sorry, I mean 'us' the fans. None of us are going now. Money saved. How can we the fans take them to court when we aren't owed anything. Nothing legally has been done wrong to us.
Maybe I'm totally misunderstanding the thread.
No worries Hill - I agree that we as fans can't as the club take the FL anywhere. I just feel in light of the imcompetance (at least) that somebody should explore the FL's handling based on Clarke's comments and how they have applied their rules
Sorry, I mean 'us' the fans. None of us are going now. Money saved. How can we the fans take them to court when we aren't owed anything. Nothing legally has been done wrong to us. 'We' aren't the club. Wouldn't the courts just say "who are you then?" It would be like sueing a movie company because we didn't like a film and didn't even go to see it.

The City of Coventry stands to lose a lot of money because of the leagues decision. Local pubs in Holbrooks, Foleshill, and Longford may have a case.

i think you are missing the point. if their was a case to get to court, however weak i thinks it worth giving them the agro and bad publicity they deserve. win or loose doesn't matter, its making a point for the fans and not just cov fans
it might be a big IF , but its definitely an avenue worth looking at though.
Problem is they haven't broken their own rules, at the end of their rules they just say basically if our rules don't fit the outcome we want we'll disregard them.
To get into the litigation game would cost an awful lot of money and the chances of winning are slim. Agreed though, we do need to expose these spineless lot for the good of future football. It's obvious they can't govern themselves and have no right to judge whether anyone is fit and proper.
I suspect that the biggest losses would be incurred by the PSL holders. Maybe if they made the claim they would have the best chance winning?I've said before there must be a CCFC supporting lawyer that can sort this out. Can't cost that much to start action against them, even if there's little chance of winning I could see it getting a fair bit of press and being very embarassing for the league. Can't we as fans claim beneficial ownership of the club having put thousands in over the years?
