No Pete
You're opinion is as valid as everyone's
The guy I'm thinking of was an Ian ,not from Shipston . My opinion I feel is less pertinent but I should make it I think .
Your efforts are entirely laudable .respect.
No PeteAh ok I’m sorry I was a little ecstatic after the game
Irritated by the phone-in after the game; most of the callers claimed to have been supporters since God was a boy (as if that gives them greater relevance) but none of them were going to the games at SA. They might have an "interest" in CCFC, they might be "fans", but they are clearly not "supporting" in any true sense; the clue is in the word. Obviously some people cannot get to games (due to distance, logistics, health, mobility or affordability reasons), but I didn't hear any of the callers say they were not going for any of these totally understandable reasons. They simply choose not to, and I do not understand CWR giving them air time to moan.
Yep, one of the callers said it was breaking his heart not going to "home" games, but refused to go over to Birmingham until SISU dropped the court action.
This is the type of comment where CWR need to clarify what court action they are referring to, as I think some fans genuinely still think this is still the case
Spot on, but there's zero chance of CWR wanting to clarify it - it doesn't fit their narrative. They're quite happy to have callers spouting such nonsense without correction or challenge.Yep, one of the callers said it was breaking his heart not going to "home" games, but refused to go over to Birmingham until SISU dropped the court action.

It’s also not important as they think ccfc chose to leave rather than carry on talkingSpot on, but there's zero chance of CWR wanting to clarify it - it doesn't fit their narrative. They're quite happy to have callers spouting such nonsense without correction or challenge.
He he he hePeople can go, people don't have to go. I honestly couldn't care less.
What surprised me was that about 90% of the callers last night had not been to the game (or any this season). They just used the phone in to boast about how long they supported the team and tried to justify their own stay away reasons.
We just beat an insanely good team at the death and I was absolutely buzzing. By the time I got out of the car I was contemplating calling Samaritans.

How do people get away with that shitProbably fed the line to Radio Solent as well @6.30 BBC Radio Solent Sport: Pre-match - Coventry City v Portsmouth & Eastleigh v AFC Fylde (11/02/2020) - BBC Sounds
The thing is mate, after all of those emails that got leaked from the council to wasps pre northampton, I'm not even sure that I disagreed with the Northampton move. The council were clearly not going to renegotiate the lease deal and we were paying 1.2m a year in rent in the third tier of english football, for access to the stadium 23 days a year. Outrageous. They weren't going to renegotiate because they were already dropping their trousers for Wasps. So what should SISU have done? Kept getting milked by the council?I didn’t go to Northampton as Sisu were trying to bankrupt acl and get the Ricoh on the cheap

Im not saying they are completely innocent but I personally look at the Northampton situation very differently now too.
Ever considered that the council brought Wasps in because they had a tenant saying they couldn’t afford the rent and needed someone to split it with? The cost of the Ricoh is a lot less with Wasps there.

I know it doesn’t suit the frothing narrative of this place but it makes far more sense than the accepted wisdom of an evil plot to kick CCFC out of Coventry which doesn’t even start to make sense unless you’re a tinfoil hat weirdo with a hard on against the council.
Fact is we had a secure tenancy and we threw it away to gamble on a Hail Mary legal action or distressing a local government. Neither of which were ever going to happen.

What level of rent do you believe was set in the original lease should the club be relegated to the third tier?More bullshit from this forum, we were never paying 1.2 million while in the third tier. Sisu were not paying any rent in the seasons leading up to sixfields.
Sisu announced a three year deal to play at sixfields even after being offered to play at the ricoh rent free - Ricoh Arena offered to Coventry rent-free

The reality is these idiots saying where the stadium Sisu are just deflecting reality and trying to avoid the truth that we can’t return unless another sports club changes strategy
That's made my blood boil.Probably fed the line to Radio Solent as well @6.30 BBC Radio Solent Sport: Pre-match - Coventry City v Portsmouth & Eastleigh v AFC Fylde (11/02/2020) - BBC Sounds
To be fair Shmmeee, has there been ANY suggestion at ANY point that Lucas and co. contaced Joy and co. and told them if you're struggling, don't worry, we've actively sought out another sporting club and you can split everying down the middle.Ever considered that the council brought Wasps in because they had a tenant saying they couldn’t afford the rent and needed someone to split it with? The cost of the Ricoh is a lot less with Wasps there....
What were they paying? Have you deliberately put “seasons” as in plural there?More bullshit from this forum, we were never paying 1.2 million while in the third tier. Sisu were not paying any rent in the seasons leading up to sixfields.
Email sent to Essex sport with our statement. Meant to take out the point about the trust but forgot. OopsThat's made my blood boil.
Got me thinking though. Is it worth sending a copy of the statement in the other thread to the local media outlet/commentary team for each opponent until the end of the season? Or at least a short email offering help to understand the situation to avoid lazy explanations like the one above. I realise they're likely to just go with whatever CWR provide them with but worth a shot?

No we can't return because a hedge fund embarked a tour of the UK legal system
Ok agreed but the only thing standing in the way right now is that indemnity clause. We cannot agree to thatNo we can't return because a hedge fund embarked a tour of the UK legal system

Do you have a fan club?Email sent to Essex sport with our statement. Meant to take out the point about the trust but forgot. Oops
Wouldn’t have thought soDo you have a fan club?
Absolutely right to leave it in, that's what we signed up to. The Trust have done nothing in the last month to change the situation.Email sent to Essex sport with our statement. Meant to take out the point about the trust but forgot. Oops
