I agree however sisu took us from a mid table championship team to bottom of league 1 and embarssing week in week out. why can't you see that? Sisu are to blame for our downward spiral to bottom tier football.

His goal at the Ricoh return game is still a fond memory. My best experience as a Sky Blues fan. The Wembley game is nothing by comparison, in terms of significance.

All the while just 20 miles from this debacle Leicester are going through to the Champions League quarter finals. If ever you needed a contrast in the difference a set of owners can make this is it.

You could pick any 11 from the stands and they would give more than this lot.

I know!! However if we hadn't have sold HR and made the Ricoh mistake chances are we would never have heard of Sisu. They are definitely to blame for the last five years totally agree with you but the rot started a long time before they bought the club. And they bought the club because of the mismanagement of those before then.

Catalyst, chicken and egg. Call it what you want.

As bad as anything this season this game. Nick and Grendel why do you think we're unable to do the basics?

We don't pass or move off the ball.

We don't control or run with the ball it's just bizarre

Turnbull cost a fee. Stevenson was chased by a premier club and Haynes is nearly mid 20's. Bury the other week had a man of the match who was 16.

As you were.

I was there, remember Sammy Clingan's entry for worst penalty of all time and thought it couldn't get any worse-how wrong I was.

Because the players don't care, why do we bother with rawson when we have harries?

I don't expect them to be messi, I do expect them to care.

The players get too much of an easy ride.

Blame SISU all you want, they do take a lot of responsibility.

They didn't however, release JOB, release Martin, choose to sell Vincelot. They also didn't decide to pay money for Turnbull or Jones, or have Oujala on trial and decide against signing him.

The recruitment in the summer is most of the reason we are getting relegated this year. The managers since have not done a good job either, and SISU do have to be looked at for their involvement. They are not however, accountable for all of it.
