I have been a fan since the 70s
not missed many home games since then - and a handful of away games a season

I will be at Stevenage - but I am quickly losing interest

I have no desire to book for Walsall or Wolves beyond that
I feel that if this drags on too long I will have drifted away

I would guess that I have been to getting on for 1000 matches
I have spent several thousand pounds watching and following the club

I will not go to northampton for a home game, and cant see us returning to coventry any time soon

Sepalla, Fisher, Council, ACL - If you do not want to lose me or many more like me - sort this out soon, and in the mean time tell me why I should hang in there

Forward this in an E-Mail to the club, telegraph and in a letter to the council, reiterate that's it a majority of a fan base that may never return..

I feel totally disengaged with the Club at the moment despite being an avid follower for 30 years. I do, however, fully expect that the day we return to Coventry (NOT the Coventry area) my passion will return in full.

My worry is that I'm sensing there are more people feeling like Sam66 than like me, which clearly means we will be losing long-standing supporters for good, not to mention a whole generation of younger fans that will be missed entirely. I had planned to take my eldest to her first game next season. She certainly won't be setting foot in fucking Northampton though, that's for sure.

How has this been allowed to happen?!

In fairnness I think they know, mate! Its just that nobody who can do anything about it seems to want to.

Still think SISU are panicking, so fingers crossed it will be sorted at some point in my lifetime. Just seeing their latest tactic of putting the bullish, arrogant and cocky Fisher out of the media spotlight and replacing him with Sepalla, Labowhatsit and Waggott, is proof of that.

They can't do anything all they can do is enforce their rules and they don't even do that too well..

I think one step back from that Robbo- they have no "rules" per-se- only guidelines?

Fair point, I think the word your searching for is 'discretion'

no need to forward it - they all read this site - if they cared, they know how to contact us/communicate etc
Its not about football to any of them

I am talking about SISU - but also the council and ACL - they all have played their part

I think people may stay engaged this season, ,with some good away support - but that will not carry on indefinitely

Agree with you.
I am going onto the Hill for one last time against Sheffield, after that I am finished with ever watching my Football team again, The Butts and the Rugby for me from now on.

It's all very tedious. I've pretty much lost interest and only come on here now and again to see if anything's happened. And when I do I find a 32 page thread about fans fighting with each other and the same old arguments. Still haven't switched CWR on all season either. Linnell makes me want to vomit!
