I think it's more that if we go down you could point to numerous results other than just this that sealed our fate. I thought their goal was coming even before players went off

Not so much about going down, just mean people not bothered about the result.

It was one point at best (if we held on)

If this helps towards getting new owners, long term this is a step fwd.

Look at that day 9 years ago. We all cheered that we got SISU and they kept us in the championship and "will leave the club in a better place than they found it"

Sadly, our biggest results are on the field at the moment, we need to win the off field battle

TF & MV will blame it on fans. However, much as I wouldn't have gone on there, our cause needed highlighting. My nephew has been txting me about it from newcastle - so people are seeing this.

Fantastic...but what difference will it make to the club other than maybe points deduction &/or fine?
To those identified by the authorities? Fine, criminal record, life-ban - gotta be worth it

Fuck off you twat! Superb protest and you CCFC fans that invaded the pitch (Peacefully) showed the whole of British football what utter shitfest of owners we've got. Fisher was "Shepherded" away with his fucking tail shoved firmly up his arse. Beagrie you fucking legend, kept on and on about our great fans and them being the Football Club not the owners. Every opportunity he had, he rammed the owners.

It was excellent, I almost remembered what it was like to feel proud as a city fan. It takes guts and nerve to do what some of those lads did tonight. I just hope they realise that a great number of the crowd - even us old twats in the west stand - were clapping and cheering them on. Well done lads, and thank you.

Small-town? It's a city...and a pretty big one that can contain not one well-supported football club...but TWO!

Embarrassing interview on Sky. Didn't know what to say, completely avoided talking about the protests, as if they didn't happen.

Agree 100%. First home game missed for years and I don't really care about the result. Thought the demo was excellent and congratulations to all involved.
Happy Christmas everybody apart from Fisher, Seppala and the Shitty Blades fans who were singing "Love SISU". I am going to sack a couple of the tossers tomorrow.

I feel that way, even if we stay up this season what difference would it make under this regime?

It's just a matter of when and not if we will be relegated, this season, the next season or the one after it doesn't matter in the bigger picture.

You've also got to remember the guys that went onto the pitch risked "Lifetime Bans". Fucking proud of all of you guys.

The timeline of events in the decline misses that despite public announcements to the contrary, in October 2014 Coventry City Council sold the stadium built for CCFC to Wasps rugby club. Condemning the club to a future as lodgers to Wasps or somehow trying to find the money to build a new stadium. Cheered on by so called Coventry City fans.

its my opinion and is the same opinion of many posters.
If you don't agree with me just say so without trying to prove a point because an ex player whose seen one game in two years he's played in thinks Bigi is half decent.
He is dreadful, just watch him try ans tackle and try and pass forward or try and take a dead ball situation, he fucks up nearly everything he does

Yes. Brilliant. No violence. It's out there. People see what's happening.

Fisher looked haggard when they showed him at the beginning. He left at the protest looking worse.

He carries the responsibility for the present mess. He has to take the flak.

He claims,via his firm's web site, to lead a "value led turnaround".

OK. Where is it?

If it doesn't mean the difference between relegation or staying up it doesn't matter.

It won't get rid of SISU. But it will add to the pressure. It was enough to make Fisher leave. SISU got free advertising :joyful:

Nobody took offence to the pitch invasion. Even the police and mini Hitlers let it happen. They had respect on Sky.

And anyway I made a couple of quid on the result. Put £20 @ 6/1 for the draw and a tenner on the win @ 25/1. Then after the players went off put £50 @ 11/4 to lose. Guaranteed win whatever the result. Pissed off with the result. And also had whatshisname to score 1st and win 2-1 @ 40/1....only a quid though :bored: So nearly £150 up. Pissed now

I actually think the pair in a 442 would do well. Sordell has the potential to be a 20 goal striker, and Thomas is very clever player, whos probably more into he Billy Clarke mould, sordell nearly scored from a cracking ball from him, a ball that neither agyei or wright would have seen or executed.

Whilst I thought he didn't do his chances any harm this evening, I just cannot see him as being useful enough to warrant a place in the starting XI at present particularly in a relegation fight...although that said I'd take him over that waste of space Wright any day of the week. Sordell playing central is key!!

Fisher is just the puppet of Sisu and does exactly what he is told. He gets his money us fans put in to help his wage and does not care one bit.

Fucking hate Sheffield United after this. Their fans are utter Cunts. 99% of opposition would likely be supporting our protest. Hope one day they find themselves in the same position.

Most of their fans are muppets, I hope they have another epic fail and don't get promoted
