Correct me if I'm wrong but I believe that cov are losing £500,000 a month?
Preston lose £750,000 a month and they're in the league below.
To some aspects what SISU are doing is right, we have to sell to stay a float, yet we need players to attract a crowd, I kinda feel sorry for them. Just don't see why anyone would want to take over from them now

So that they can make the investment in the team Sisu are incapable of ,and possibly becuase they care about which league we play in ,which means they understand what fans want /expect a football club to aspire to
OUT OF TOUCH.

But that is just it Wingy. This is their first (and I suspect last) foray into football and it shows. They don't have a clue as to what footie fans want or expect. I still don't understand why they bought us in the first place.

I guess they thought a business was a just a business, but it doesn't work that way, does it. They've had their fingers burned and I very much doubt when they do finally go they will ever touch another football club again.

And Wingy, who's to say that new owners would have the kind of money to buy players that the fans - or should I say the 12000 who bother to turn up - expect or think they deserve? Crowds that small won't buy any decent players. The only hope would be some dumb ass multi-billionaire who'd throw his money at us. Not gonna happen, is it?

We're fucked and I blame Richardson, Robinson, McGinnity and to a lesser extent SISU and the fans that can't be arsed.

ccfc fans do not know how much per month the club are losing,
we have never had any transparency from sisu as to their loan / investment,
when we had several high profile players, last season, we were given the 500k line,
since then, severe cutbacks,
that doesn't stack up to me,
'sisu' - explain ?

Oh, I will never give up. Even if we get relegated and relegated again I'll still go and cheer the City. I've always done it and I always will.

Could this also be the view of CC when he said that we needed a "war council"? such a council of experienced heads, with their combined connections and influence could find us alternative investors.
