How about the evidence of the club attempting to build a new stadium outside Coventry and them stating they won't return to the Ricoh?

Or should we not take Sisu at their word?

All of which shows Sisu plan to build outside Coventry. Which is what he said.

It might feel good to say, but it doesn't get us anywhere unfortunately.

But I do hope Sisu are lying about this one (stadium location).

An interesting new policy for the forum.

No-one's said I blame them 100%. I laid this out quite clearly the other day, so I will again.

I focus 100% on Sisu right now because they are the ones that moved the club. In my eyes that's not playing fair. I made the analogy to the Geneva Convention in warfare. For me, harming the fans was beyond the pale.

I know nothing like enough about the entire history (and it varies from person to person what we're talking about: from Richardson? From McGinnity? From Sisu?) to make an accurate judgement about where the whole thing lies. I'd say in the rental negotiations I'd personally put it at 90/10 split to Sisu, but so much more is to come out that may change.

All of which doesn't change my position that as the owners of the club, they are the only ones with a duty to make it work, and the only ones that can take the blame for the current state of the club.

Oh and from what I hear, Caulm Wilson would rather be playing at Pride Park next season than the Ricoh or Sixfields.

but they feel are they are fixing problems in the long term.

if there no ricoh high rent issues in the first place they would never have been forced to do this.

we need to have more income,and stadium is big part of that.

i hope something can be sorted for the ricoh i really do. i dont want a new ground on edge of boundries either.

I don't want to get into this again, but I'd argue that they weren't "forced" to do anything.

And now, my responses will be picked apart and analysed and thrown back in my face. It's only a matter on time. As Moff said singling people out isn't too surprising as you don't want to understand anyone else's opinion you just want to get the people who disagree to chant "Way to go, Michael". I ain't gonna do it. I have my opinions on the matter. You just blindly chanting "It's SISU!, it's SISU!" also isn't "particularly helpful".
Click to expand...

Torchy, I'm afraid it is SISU & you appear to not understand what their whole objective is /was along.

Remember that 95% of our fans have boycotted the move to trampfields & can see through them.

SISU wanted to & still want to aquire the Stadium & land etc. Do you honestly think they came to our rescue because of the Premiership dream, where there are 23 similar / capable competitors. Too risky! However, a big shiny stadium & some land, on the cheap........... what do you think.
However, the pussy cat did not tuen over to have it's belly tickled did it!

These people are asset strippers & only interested in MONEY! This is not a hobby or lifelong dream like a 'Jack Walker'.
.
The Council's / Higgs / everyone else's only error in all of this is being ill equipped when fighting dirty.

The final nail for me was Simon's photo of the entourage SISU took to court the other day & the sack truck full of documents.
They are an utter disgrace & no amount of trying to tarnish everyone else will change that.

We all need SISU gone at whatever cost. It is all very very sad..........

95%? Although splitting hairs more like 80-85%.

no acceptance. just an understanding.

i have been wanting ownership of the ricoh since day 1, especially since 2008.

all we have ever had are soundbytes from council to the tune of "maybe.....one day....not" , enough is enough and its time for a chance. this is rolling the dice, lets just hope its a win for ccfc

if all you've wanted is ownership of the ricoh since day 1 (i assume you mean for the club to own it) you best start chanting sisu out. the sound bites from sisu are its one of the companies in sisu's group that will own it and tim even said its unlikely that the club will own it.

oh i agree its not gonna be perfect

but it wont work with council ownership so why not try a different tact.

council ownership will over see us fall even further and die a slow death

sis ownership might kill us or it might save us. risk worth taking imo
