I know many on here think swamping the Football Leage with emails is a pointless excercise. I do not agree. emails from hundreds of supporters can only keep the situation in fron of the Football League so that it does not die.

I am constantly emailing Andrew Pomfret at the Football League, the last five they have not replied to !

1. I forwarded a copy of the JR asking for comments (no reply)

2. I emailed pointing out that the comments that the League could not get involved in a commercial dispute was now invalid following the JR saying it was no longer a commercial dispute. No reply.

3. I asked the Football League to comment on the fact that Justice Hickinbottom was scathing of SISU'S management of CCFC. No reply.

4. I asked if the Football League would consider transferring the Golden Share to a newly formed company Coventry City Football Club (2014) Limited if financial backing could be proven - no reply

5. I have sent a video of Moz Baker's speech at the Rally asking for comments.

In short, they can no longer answer with a standard reply -- keep up the pressure !

Have you ever heard of a spam filter?

Apart from voice_of reason's

Do it too much, and people switch off. In a wider sense, Saturday was news because it doesn't happen every week - the same applies here.

Of course, but if all emails are addressed to enquiries@thefootball-league.co.uk they don't go into Spam ! For the atention of Andrew Pomfret.

Seems not. I don't think sending constant emails will help, but there you go, that's just my opinion.

Same with Mr C's email with the F word in it.

Granted. But constant emails could be considered spamming, could it not?

Does anyone else wish that with the election next year, someone would see taking the FL to task (especially just after a disaster WC and home of the fan owned team winning the thing) as a vote winner?

Surely it's an easy win: take on "the establishment" work for "the people" only piss off a couple of ex-players running the FA.

.

We are all entitled to our opinions and should respect an individuals opinion even if it is not our own. I do agree that using swear words in letters and mails should not be included.

A bit of a "chippy" character by all accounts.

As far as I can understand he's about as high up as you can go in the FL if you are a football fan. As he's not one of the sponsor's of the football league he has no power what so ever, as does no one else who works for the league. They all answer to their pay masters.

I guess your lack of awareness about Mr Pomfrets position shows you have never sent an email to the FL.

It was the tone of his post that seemed that if you haven't emailed the FL you were somehow a bad person.

Perhaps the FL won't help because we were one of the clubs who voted to break away and form the premier league all those years ago!!

If it does anything even a stock response then it keeps it in the forefront of their minds. The march didnt have an immediate response but it showed the FL that we are not happy, all about chipping away isnt it. I wouldnt guess that this chap would reply directly, i assume he isnt sat infront of his PC answering emails from fans accross the country but they will reply eventually.

No doubt on Jack's "What Constitues A Real Fan" List, emailing the Football League is pretty high. As is using "distressing ACL" in every post.

I couldn't give a shit what it shows, quite openly say I have never emailed them / stalked them like some on here.

Not that they have in this case necessarily, but you can block senders no matter who they address it to.
