This maybe the wrong place to email but I am a crawley supporter and was at the game today which you did not deserve to lose. your team and supporters were great(apart from a few over zealsos ones). Being 63 years old I remeber coventry's 34 years in the top flight, the 1st all seater stadium and the fab win of the fa cup against spurs in '87.
It was a pleasure for me and my friends to welcome such a great club to our small stadium and sincerely hope all your troubles will be sorted soon.
Good luck for the rest of the season, and the future.

Thank you -- you never know which club is next to fall foul of owners such as we have and the Football League proving entirely ineffective in putting the REAL fans first.

Nice to hear that and that someone took the time to write it.
The support today was awesome.

Thankyou very much.
Sorry and embarrassed by the clowns on the pitch.
Your staff and stewards are all a credit to your club especially the 1 who looks like the wrestler triple h

Nice to know there are still quality football fans around.

Thanks TurkeyTrot. Much appreciated.

Indeed fans interested in their team, not a management company or the local council.

you're like a broken record, why don't you ever back up your ridiculous statements?

I have finally realised that the only way "the only way to beat the dark is not to give it battle" and the trivia question is what sci-fi show does that quote come from.

Cheers mate. Apart from a few scabs our supporters are largely united and we shall drive SISU from our club eventually. We hope without too much further damage but many of us are prepared for the long haul knowing that our team is the team with a history in Coventry and playing in Coventry.

Everyone realises TurkeyTrot received the email rather than wrote it, right?

I am hoping that he has informed the writer that he was posting it on here and pointed in our direction.

Watching the game yesterday and seeing those few fans run on I was half expecting many more to follow. I don't normally condone that stuff, BUT, part of me was hoping a few hundred would follow them and just sit in the centre circle to make a point. Publicise our situation.
As I said, normally it would be stupid to run on, but I can understand the anger and frustration. We've been lied to and let down by Sisu, by the FL, by the FA it seems. No wonder people get angry. Common sense and fair play have gone out of the window. What is left for the fans to do?
To be honest the thousand or so City fans there yesterday were amazingly tolerant. I half expected it to really kick off.
For all I know the few that ran on might just have been drunk as skunks and just acting like prats, but I suspect it stemmed from pure frustration.
So don't any of us be too hard on those blokes.
Oh and thanks from the Crawley fan for his words of support. Nice one.
After a day spent on the car parks formerly known as the M25 and M23, it cheered me a bit.
