How many turned up at the Ryton protest again?
Cheers. I can see why that isn't on their placards (assuming there's placards, it's not a proper protest otherwise)
No they were the yes's in les Reid's article poll !!
The only problem is that he has not submitted the 2000 who said no !!!!
chiefdave said:Fair point but right at the time the other groups are making moves to bring everyone together this new group have appeared to cause further division! I'm not at all clear from their website / petition what they actually want to achieve.
why am I not surprised
Not at all. I don't and won't attend Sixfields. That doesn't mean that ACL have done nothing wrong.
Sixfields or petition? Which are you most/least surprised about?
It's only causing "further division" because you don't agree with what they are doing. Correct?
Because you know how much I love the Ricoh..
If it's aimed at getting people talking, why start with the one side that is willing to talk?

no because of the tenor of the bulk of your posts
To be honest, if it pushes them to be more public and 100% put the ball in SISU's court it can't do any harm. If they came out and said "we have offered this", "sisu said this".
I know they can't give everything away but at least if they are more open as because if anything they have just been praised for anything they do.
It is all well and good Lucas saying "let's talk" to the press but didn't Joy say that too?
I think most of us would support that as an idea. Get the council to say publically what they would be willing to do in order for the club to come back.
However I can't help but think that sort of message would be more effective after the JR.

Maybe you're right.
Now would be about the time, a month before, to focus their minds on what to say then though, wouldn't it?
Possibly yes. I just mean I don't think the council will say much if anything before the JR.
The 800 signature petition has been handed to the council who are obliged to make a statement, they should take this as a view of a cross section of the public's feelings and providing the group continues with another demo it will all be meaningful at the end of the day. If I was a councillor i would be thinking that i need people to vote for me in the next elections
Possibly yes. I just mean I don't think the council will say much if anything before the JR.
This presumably as it's absolutely local - i.e. calling on the local council to do something, whereas Ainsworth is calling on an Administrator from London to look at something, or something.
What Ryton protest?
*awaits "exactly"*
You might be right - after all Les Reid is the local politics reporter. Ainsworth is only a locally elected MP talking about a local issue that has dominated the news over the summer.
Was someone from Trust on cwr with new group. Was is to agree/disagree!
Where is the story to report on from what Ainsworth has 'revealed'? It's a half story without a response or rebuttal.
They haven't actually shown they are willing to talk.
I love how quickly Les Reed turned into a villain like that effeminate media guy in that rubbish Bond film.
They've talked to the fans through the Trust, Ann Lucas has asked for her "woman to woman talks", AFAIK they agreed to Nikki Sinclaire's request to meet with Joy. None of that is true of Seppala/CCFC.
It's only causing "further division" because you don't agree with what they are doing. Correct?

Not at all, are you saying that the launch of this campaign will help unite the fans because that's not the impression I get.
Here's an answer for ya!
We call on the council to conduct a survey of the impact on the city's economy of losing its football club (a) temporarily over up to five years, and (b) permanently, if a new stadium is built in Warwickshire following the Northampton groundshare.
We call on the council to explain to fans and city taxpayers what strategy it now has, if any, for returning the Sky Blues to the Ricoh Arena as soon as possible.
We call on councillors to explain the council's business plan for the Ricoh Arena without the football club.
I love how quickly his viewpoint changed to "Sell the Ricoh" as soon as he got an exclusive "interview" with Seppala. Same as Sinclaire. Same as the "chosen few" fans who have met her. Problem is, if she's so damn persuasive, why only meet with people already sympathetic and why not make those same arguments publicly?
