Block 15 is represented, as are disabled fans, diamond club members, Vice Presidents club, jsb's, sky blue trust and more.

I've been on here 3 times before meetings asking for questions to take to the meetings and have have always posted the responses. That has coincided with all this shite so the last time wasn't as productive but the first time was really successful. Dan and Justin Tose went away and answered everything.

No-one was elected, the club started the SCG, I have no idea how people came to be on it but its a pretty decent cross section.

It was the original sky blue trust that started the SCG after a conversation between Lionel Bird and joe Elliot, the idea was to get the webmasters and other representative of fan groups involved to air the views of the posters and members as a direct channel to the club.

So why aren't you joining them,as you stated in an earlier post? Yet tell others they should if they want to show a united front. Very confusing.

Because I do not believe in forcing my choice of action on others, or condemning others for their action, but do think the obvious unified message is the one that is most effective in order to raise a voice and be listened to.

It's not that confusing really!

Wondering why people are making a big deal out of peoples' choices and demanding homogeinity. Are these the same people who slagged Ann Lucas off for her principled decision not to give the club a penny more while SISU were here, or is there another mentality going on?

I'd like to know!

The only attempts to divide fans are coming from, ironically, those who demand everybody thinks and acts the same.

Each should make their own choice and live with it. In their own minds/circumstances their decision to go is the correct one. Others (seemingly most) will strongly disagree but that does not give anyone the right to bully, abuse, intimidate or harrang those that go. I respect their decision but absolutely disagree with it. Whether you go or not we all remain Sky Blues Fans

Whilst I fully understand the desire and need to support the team on the pitch I just can not reconcile that in my own mind with the support that SISU get from that, by people attending "home" games 35 miles away from our Home.

Just to make it clear I do attend the SCG as one of the two Trust representatives. I have not been offered a free season ticket or inducement of any kind by Tim Fisher or anyone else - probably because they know what the answer would be and if acted upon would bring tears to their eyes without copious lubrication. I have spoken to Steve Brown and he assures me that he hasn't been offered one and I know his reaction would be similar to mine (except he would be more polite). I cannot speak for other members of the SCG as we do not really communicate between meetings and I have not asked them if they are paying for their tickets or not (and I doubt they would tell me even if I asked) but I do know several have made it clear that they are going to go to Northampton even though they disagree with the move there.

That is their choice and that rests with their conscience, it is not up to anyone else to judge or criticize. I am sure some have agonized hard over their decision and they will have to live with the consequences of what that decision may do to the club. However it would be wrong for anyone to deride or castigate them for their decision, I have made my decision not to go and I am sure some will criticize that but I stand by my principals as I feel this is a ridiculous move that will do irrepairable harm to the club I love.

If True Sky Blue can do it so can I.
It has come to my attention fom a source that I am not at liberty to divulge that SCG members have been offered free season tickets for our "home" games in Northampton. Now here's the rub the majority of the SCG were adamant that they would not travel to "home" games out of Coventry. I would have thought this was showing solidarity with the fans they claim they support you know like the ones that were on the march last week. However it appears that one by one they have accepted theses bri.... sorry free season tickets. I don't know the people on the SCG except for Jan and Steve from the Trust so

Jan and Steve have you been offered free season tickets and if you are are you taking up the offer?
If you are then I think we know what the price of principles is dont we?

So given that it has now been made clear that your "source" was telling porkies, do you feel at liberty to divulge his/her name?

There never was a source DTH, unles it was one of his other usernames, possibly TSB, or lifelongcityfan.

He does seem the type that would talk to his different personas and think they were real.

You'd think though if you were going to have multiple personalities, al least one of them would be interesting.

Napoleon or somebody?

I thought you might want to be "different" because your "source" gave you a very specific incorrect fact that, one could only assume, was intended to paint members of the SCG and the SBT in a bad light.

I'd thought that you might consequently have felt "used" and so free of any obligation to protect his/her anonymity.

It appears not.

I love this hippy obsession of yours...we're not united. Simple. The majority are those who won't go to Northampton. I don't respect anybody who goes.

If you want us to be united, which way do you think that is most likely to happen? The 160 people who have bought their ST's growing a conscience and casting aside their selfishness? Or the 5,000 who marched against SISU last weekend swallowing their pride and Fisher's cock and going to Northampton?

Why have I painted the SBT in a bad light I asked them a question they both replied King Harvest has as well. The othere may well not be on this site As for feeling used not really most things on here are rumour or conjecture unless its OSB Squirrel etc.

It might not be you who painted the SBT in a bad light but it sounds like a 'friend' of yours is trying to put them in a bad light. Where did your friend get this info (which is wrong) and will you fall for some Chinese whispers again?

The story did not confirm how many had been sold for money. A good proportion of the 300 will be given away, there is a huge contiguous block allocated in one stand, if groups of individuals had bought those seat there would be some gaps, there isn't.

Heard the same rumour today at Oxford.
They have only sold a few ST and bought most themselves to give to certain fans and potential VIPs
