They should aim for equality wherever possible. What form should this encouragement take, and could that be seen as advertising the business?

I think the Council should help promote every business that aims to bring trade/money to Coventry.
Well the cynic in me suggests they are advertising it as they want to succeed above anything else - purely for the sake of political expediency and nothing to do with supporting commercial enterprise .
I mean get real. Why do t they promote small local businesses on the site - why don't they actively promote local enterprise. Your blatant council bias is disturbing.
Enterprise zones, low rents, etc. That encourages business but it doesn't push or advertise one over another. I know you are desperate not to criticise the Council, but putting an advert on their homepage is a bit of a shocker.
I'm criticising the Council as I think they should promote local businesses more.
Lol? Not sure if you're missing the point on purpose. CWR were NOT advertising as the BBC don't advertise. It was sports news.
CCC are advertising. This is strange as CC do NOT usually do this. My job involves local authority websites and despite you saying they have done this for CCFC in the past (though not proved) it's not something i have ever seen. Without exception they advertise their own events and services. NEVER anything from a private company.
I agree with your last point though. Double standards.
Well for start then they should stop advertising a team that is anything but local.
It's a business bringing people and money in to the City, I don't mind that being advertised.

So are CCFC, so is Primark, so is Hillfields.
But you would advocate advertising a team whose owners publicly say that they can't work with the council and are taking their team away from Coventry. Hardly good advertising on a web site designed to enhance Coventry. As I have said before, the only way to get the backing of CCC is to commit to playing in Coventry ( negotiate the best terms possible or buy into the stadium ) and drop the JR. Then CCC would have to give the same prominence to CCFC.
So why aren't they advertising Cov Rugby? What have their owners done?

Man, that pisses me off.
Are the council going to promote other sports clubs, events and local businesses on their official site now, or the only the ones where they need to get a half-decent attendance to try to justify a fundamentally immoral decision.
As the OP says, when was the last time they did anything like this for the clubs that actually had something to do with the city.
Worth making a call, if CCC refuse they could 'accidentally' make sure everyone knows they have refused.
I am sure this will get shot down but I think this business is likely to owe them 14 million pounds.
So they need the business to be successful.
So I am guessing that's why it is advertised?

Point missed again. This just does NOT happen despite the "apparently" from Lurker and LAST. This really is a shocking thing to do and rubs salt in to the wounds of CCFC, Wasps and CRFC fans. Well, most of them.
Imagine the uproar if Northampton council had done the same?
Surely they would only let the business be in a position to owe them 14 million if it was successful?

I have said that they should also then do it for us and CRFC but ultimately they should NOT do it for anyone as that is not the remit of the council. They have already dirtied their hands by doing the deal they do not need to advertise the fact.
And really there is no need to advertise Wasps. People in Cov already know they are here and those wanting to attend will visit the Wasps site.
I wonder if this kind if thing will still happen when CCC are part of the Super Birmungham authority?
Dirted there hands??? Did you use those words when sisu moved us to sixfields about the Northampton owners? No don't think so
Yep. Said they were wrong and should take the majority of blame for our current position. And yes dirtied THEIR hand with franchising a football team while at the same time help to fuck over local ones. Some feat that.
Still waiting for you to show me the ad for CCFC on the CC site.
As for upsetting most wasps fans I don't think they will be reading Cov councils web site.
What you blame Northampton over sisu for Cov moving? Lol you really are a muppet. How can I show a website page from years ago?

No, you can't read. I blame SISU, not Northampton.
Still waiting...
No you said Northampton owners are the main reason why. And like I said you can't show web pages from years ago
If only you made so much effort in Cov moving to sixfields like you are with wasps playing in Cov

If only people backed the team as much as they did the council.
