CCFC EXCLUSIVE: Political reporter Les Reid last night spent nearly three hours interviewing Sisu boss Joy Seppala at the hedge fund's HQ in London.

In her first ever media interview about the club, she speaks candidly about the stadium row, their current situation at Sixfields, and their hopes for the future.
The full story will be in the Coventry Telegraph tomorrow, but we'll be carrying a short teaser piece on the web later this afternoon.

Can I be the first to call him a SISU rent boy apologist?

Interested to see if people consider him to be full of shit or not based on their views after this.

Maybe so. Still won't stop the character assassination though.

What I will do is either praise OSB for his foresight in predicting this... or call him a SISU/ACL/CET plant

So the "PR machine" starts - looking forward to this article and hope Les Reid did a Paxman on her!

No doubt, but if it doesn't fit with how you think it should old Les will be getting shouted down. I'm looking forward to the potential meltdowns.

Should be interesting. Is JS on the defensive ? A mysterious girl not known for her public performances. Is this in advance of some breaking news, change of tact, announcing the new ground site, change of company policy towards the team or a cry for help and forgiveness.

She'll be asking Michael and the gang outside her office to grab her a marks and Spencer's meal deal.

If this interview shows Joy in any light but wonderful and hard done by,I'll be surprised

IF...he didn't "cross examine" any answer she gave, or pick her up on any "discrepancies" in her statements, and didn't press for an answer to any of his "awkward" questions (which there should have been many), then it will have been an opportunity wasted, and he should quite rightly get some stick.

However, if he did his best to do all of this, then fair play to him.

I'll be interested in her answers nonetheless, and also interested in how many different "reading between the lines" versions we have afterwards....

Call me a mental conspiracy theorist if you like, but there's only one way Les Reid could have got this interview, and that's by being on the Sisu payroll!!!

I don't believe you are a conspiracy theorist ...

On a serious note - Les Reid has interviewed PKWH a few times ... do you think he is on ACL payroll too?

In my opinion, he was spying! That's the only justifiable reason!

PKWH has been a bit more talkative though hasn't he. Joy on the other hand doesnt have a public profile at all

I get the feeling some people are very angry about this news. They don't want to hear JS speak, they would rather she remained a distant and mysterious pantomime villain - a faceless hate figure. The moment she comes out of the shadows, speaks or (heaven forbid) is photographed, it becomes that bit more difficult to call her evil, or a 'slag' because she starts to be humanised and there is a danger that all the preconceptions and assumptions are challenged.

Perhaps they won't be. Perhaps she is the forked-tongued shape-shifting reptile many think she is. I think she might just be a woman with a big house and an opinion, but time will tell.

The comments made on this thread so far are to be expected.

Just answer one thing. Why won't she meet up with anyone that can change things instead of someone that can spin her lies for her?

We all want her to meet up with ACL/CCC but some seem to be happy with another meeting that won't get us anywhere.

The article will be interesting, but to shower Les Ried or Joy Seppala with misconceptions before the article has been released will be a bit silly.

Maybe that question will be asked tomorrow.

You'll have to wait and see..

"Meet the fans" you cry. So she meets the fans. "Talk to us" you cry. So she is interviewed in the local rag.

Yes, we want her to meet up with ACL too. Do you know something we don't. If so, what?

Or maybe she's the woman who has the future of our club in her hands, and appears to be ruining it, and has been known to "stretch the truth" even to a High Court Judge. I think these issues are more important.

No...we should all definitely have big fall-outs & rows about what we suspect he will ask & how she will respond.....

...Especially as the actual interview will probably be as dull as ditchwater....

...I want to know if she does actually like Joy Division?

After all....we all know Jimmy Hill loves the Pixies....:guitar2:

If I were photo editor for them, it'd be beyond temptation not to raid the David Icke collection!
