How about trying to get the Keep Cov in Cov message onto TV as much as possible.
1) Send a few on transfer deadline day to each of the big clubs training grounds or stadium wherever the cameras are with banners etc
2) Same with live Prem games when they do that vox pop thing before the game.
3) Delegation outside every game with petition to get fans of other clubs to sign and raise the profile
Just a few thoughts.

Pitch invasions at every single game, and people not leaving the pitch until there actually arrested.

Not a penny more , no business can survive without money no mater what fisher says,its hurting them ,it was a gamble to try and break acl ,keep strong everyone hedge funds don't invest money they asset strip , sisu don't invest in new grounds ect and they are not going to start now , no money is hurting them

and if they have budgeted to simply lose money and are using CCFC as a way of writing off losses elsewhere ?

This is my fear. However, one way to really create a fuss is that we boycott SkyBet who are now sponsoring the FL. Encourage everyone , CCFC fans and other supporters to cancel their accounts. This will make the news.!! They would have to listen

En masse we should reject SkyBet and any other supporters or sponsors of the FL

Huge SISU OUT banner and ask Premiership/championship forums/trusts of teams competing in upcoming Sky/televised tv games to display it at match and attach their club crest to banner in support,before returning banner so it can be sent to next match.
Or just invade their webpages asking them to make SISU out banners for televised matches.

Noticed on Sunday the "Wall of fame" is looking in a right state (needs a scrub) and the Memorial garden fence is rusting over,a media plea for fans of CCFC to help clean it all up as Otium/SISU have left it in a state with no regard for supporters feelings.
Invite media along whilst its being cleaned up..

(Mind you Sisu would probably sue anyone touching it)

Bomb threats? ..... Kidding. I think you'd prob get arrested.

There must be something peeps. We can't give up the fight for City.

Brain is too tired to think.

All the cost cutting sisu have done over the last five years , i.e, merging staff with acl, closing two shops in town down, players wages, cut massively , all the gains have been lost with the move to sixfields , because overnight they have lost all there bread and butter income, plus loss of sponsorship ,no company sits down after five years of cost cutting to reduce losses, to then plan to lose all there customers ,and hope while they are cost cutting some time in the future there customers will come back , the gamble hasn't worked

Some good ideas re publicity on transfer deadline day. But most importantly stick with it. Keep writing the letters keep asking the questions. Stay firm, take Seppala on at hardball. The motto of the Scottish Stewart clan is Strength Gathers At The Wound!
....so Stay Sky Blue not SISU!

What about the sheff utd game isn't it on sky.i know its not one penny more but how about just a one off sell out.sisu out chants all game and we want our city back would have a bigger impact than an empty stadium.i know it means giving sisu some of your cash but there must be something that could be arranged in front of sky cameras that could have a massive impact.

perhaps those who want to protest go to live sky sports matches say championship games
the football league are the people we should be aiming at.

Some good ideas here, I think it would make very interesting viewing, I saw a SISU out banner at the Emeriates Arsenal friendly a couple of weeks ago
I started a "Save Chip" thread a while back suggesting a "Save Cov" campaign, the "Chip" thing went crazy, all thoose years ago.

The fans could do with some direction for this day as there's a 130thCCFC birthday party on the same weekend at the Lime tree club.
Need to be united on this instead of split between 2 places in Coventry.

To get Coventry back we need to consider all ideas.

The ousting of Joy Seppala is important, we need her to be seen, to face the fans, we should approach those who fund her. She hates publicity so lets give her some and see the faceless lady.
Tim Fisher is just a front for her he is a puppet?

Any ideas to get through to the FL must be considered, thy are a major player in our saga.

There is only one way to get at the people who are breaking our City, that is to flush out Seppala. She remains protected by the man with thick skin, and amazingly no one has ever managed to get a photo of her. Journalists, they are useless, if they were any good they would have made more of that Board Report leaked last week

I quite like the bombardment (from outside the ground) of tennis balls onto the pitch during Sheff Utd game (with SISU out written on them) during the game - big media coverage (being live on SKY)

No don't think so. An empty stadium with no atmosphere would be much better.

Been thinking on the way home...
How about on a weekend we get a number of us at every league one ground in the country that there's a game on, wear our shirts, two locations outside the ground, home and away end and hand out leaflets (written by the Trust) explaining our plight and getting signatures (name and club supported) asking the football league (or telling the spineless so and so's) to reverse the decision and force SISU to play back in Coventry. Make sure Sky film us outside every ground and maybe get 2 banners (home and away end) displayed behind the goals or whatever saying the same thing. So every game shown our banner will be there.
Or something like that.

(I better check with the trust first make sure they've enough money for leaflets and banners etc )
