Yep, and considering how many clubs rent their stadia now, they will more likely be sympathetic to the CCFC cause (5 offers of groundshare show that)

No just 1. I tried it myself and it said I’d already cast a vote.

I can't believe that more than half the people who completed the survey would prefer us to be kicked out the league, than to play away from the ricoh!

Something stinks

It’s not as if the Trust wanted this result for the council to aid the forced takeover or something !!!!

That makes the result even worse. EFL can now just expel us from the league, ceasing to exist with the knowledge that the fanbase has spoken. #expelledmeansexpelled

Call themselves 'fans' 'supporters'. They can go and fuck themselves.

Vote was in consultation with "the (un) trust" after their little cosy up with wasps/council and ultimately the EFL a couple of weeks ago...
Ultimately, pubicised by "the (un) Trust" so a lot of voters will be following them/supporting them/ liking posts etc...and believing what they say (and subliminaly be in line with their agenda)
Thus a vote in line with what they are trying to push!
A couple of thousand votes is not representative of our support in my opinion.
Waiting now for their statement regarding this! Bet it is quicker coming that that weak piece of drivel they just half heartedly put out regardong their pals at the Council!!

Something seems off. While I appreciate we've got some total idiots as fans the majority of the fan base voting for extinction is ridiculous.

Why was this even done through the trust and not the clubs database which would be much larger? The EFL use that for their own surveys so why not this one? Easy enough to set it up so each person has their own code and can only vote once.

Why not try and poll people at the match? Far more representative but more effort and would require all of the board members to bother to go

Or if you'd try to maintain cordial relations with the club perhaps you could engage with them and issue a joint survey so the club understands, using the club's own database rather than hit and hope

But it will only go to a vote if we do not have a ground. We have an option on 5 so doubt it will come to that. Just as well with the pile of shite the trust just done.

Exactly this. So we could see how ST voters feel vs match package buyers vs regular single ticket attendees vs me who goes twice a season when I fly home vs NOPM Nigel who hasn't been since Sixfields and only went once a season anyway when it was a big cup game.

Really easy to vote for expulsion if you never fucking go in the first place.

My Grandad passed away in May 2017. I kept finding excuses to not go due to that. Work being the main one. I dedicated too much of my time to it every day of the week. A few people got me to go again this season including a prominent poster on here. It took a while but his words sunk in and I realised he was right. He wouldn’t want me to miss out. I feel like I let him down that I stayed away for so long.

What do you mean by that? The EFL asked us to send it out and host it. Were we wrong to do it?

Gave up at page 9 so if this has been said etc etc....
Option B is the "cake and eat it" option by the sounds. The only sensible "condition" is a commitment by SISU to build a stadium otherwise it is just Option A. If the condition is dropping the Court case, they might as well do it now, which they won't. But we all suspect that SISU don't really want to build a stadium.

Of the temporary solutions, personally I would hate B'ham (be like a morgue). I'd prefer a packed Rugby. All other options are just too far away.

As for the death of the club, Wasps themselves (and MK Dons for that matter) show that if you bring a good sporting product to a big town, punters will come. New CCFC would rise back up.

CJ, this is how it will be

Hoffman is going to give a statement referring to this and saying how he can save ccfc, the trust and council are going to keep shouting sell up as if that will make any difference because he can do a deal straight away.

It is far too blatant, shout at the efl not to do a groundshare because the "fans" would rather the club get kicked out of the league then groundshare.

Shall we come back to this in a few weeks? The same as every other thread where it's pointed out what will happen?

Can you reply to the sisu statement thread? Its a bit quiet, same as the wasps action one went.

Please stop thinking people are stupid, they really aren't and can see about three steps ahead of you it seems.

Shame about the trust board member getting his Twitter suspended, what an example to represent the fans.

The majority of votes came from Coventry or the surrounding areas. However when the London SC publicised it there was a spike from the South East. That’s a pretty good indication it was mostly City fans that did vote. I voted B and expected the majority to do the same. Quite surprised about the outcome.

Couldn’t vote. Not surprised it’s either a slow death or quick death if nothing is sorted

When I’m back from my trip I’ll try to find the time to go through it. In the meantime I’ll ask to see if anyone else can take a look and reply.

Won't hold out any hope.

I don't see the point of this poll. It is up to SISU to engage with Wasps, the EFL and others to find a solution.

I think the people choosing option c are simply fed up of the saga and want it over.

I din't see there is any way the EFL will just kick the club out. If SISU decide to continue legal action and move the club out of Coventry and that results in 2 relegations then that will solve their problem for them in the usual way.

If SISU are serious about building a stadium and not just putting out a PR story then let's hear a concrete proposal, where do they think is a credible site, why is it 'commercially sensitive' if they are talking about council owned land? If they are not serious then its outragous that they use the claim to hoodwink fans.
