Oh yeah, your right

We should all just shut up and take the fact that Sisu are getting us closer to league one with a pinch of salt.

How silly of us all to over react like this

What we ask though is, what's the alternative to SISU?

Genuine question because I've not heard a proper answer since Gary Hoffman's bid went tits up.

The alternative was Hoffmans bid, Sisu wrecked the bid because they wouldn't give the club up for nothing.
Something they made the previous owners do. Double standards in my view.

So now we don't have an alternative bid, but by god I'm still going to let these muppets who are killing our club know that I for one am not happy with them and will not sit back and do nothing other than say " er but wot else is there ??? "

To be as honest as I can, I'm gob smacked that there are still Cov fans who are not 100% with the get Sisu out protests.

For me its not about what we acheive with them any more but what we could acheive without them.

It might just be us childish fans that don't want to sit around and swallow every little bit of strange smelling liquid that seems to perpetually filter down on us from the Club. I'm not suggesting we go up to the Ricoh with pitchforks, I am however suggesting it's commendable for fans to voice their reasonable opinions without being slapped down and patronised all the time by certain members of the forum.

The chaps who are just being aggressive and mouthing off however can have a holiday

yes the protests will continue!

if anything the emergence of bigi etc will be having sisus cronies rubbing their hands together as they will be seeing £££££££ flashing accross their eyes and will be thinking they may be able to get a few hundred grand in for him come january.

if this team starts doing well it will be ripped apart in january, well it will be anyway but you get the drift.

Fully agree, even if this team does well Sisu are going to break it up and sell off what they can.

We will only get weaker with them in control
No matter how well AT gets us playing.

Spot on, and Thorn was Ransons man, there is absolutely no doubt about that. Just remember the passion with which he spoke about him on CWR after his resignation. Shame he didn't hire him as gaffer instead of Aidy, eh? We are very lucky that it didn't count against Thorn after Ranson had left that they were buddies. That is partly why he chooses his words so carefully! I think we can all guess what he really wants to say, there are a few hints in every interview.

Ranson was going to appoint Andy Ritchie by all accounts, and was crap at choosing managers which is why there has such been such a big decline in standards,performances, and crowds over the last few years.

Thorn at last getting us to play some football we want to watch(well, second half last night anyway)

I have never said we should not protest. I have however said several times there is a time and a place to protest. Not during a game as this can affect our chances. You all want to keep Bigi. Will he want to stay if there is continual protests during games? He loves it here at the moment. The players do feel it during games. I don't understand it when everyone agrees that vocal support helps the team. It can be like a 12th player for us, but then say that negativity can't affect the team, using comments like they are old enough or get paid enough for it not to make any difference. Either the noise coming from the crowd can influence our team or it can't. You can't just pick and choose what helps you in a debate.

We have been badly run for as long as I can remember. It is SISU's fault for trying to sort out the crap that was done before them. At least I have seen for myself why no previous board tried to sort our problems out. With these new rules of self sustainability about to come in we could be miles ahead of nearly every other team. This will be by luck, just the same as appointing AT because he was cheap. They are onto a hiding for nothing. Everything right will be pure luck. Everything wrong will be a disaster. If they were going to give up on us they would have gone by now.

The thing is though, I'm sure the players are unhappy with Sisu too, you could clearly see Ben Turner making a dig at them when he said what he said about signing for Cardiff.

How do you know the Sisu out chants effect the players ?
You don't, for all we know the chants could gave been why they came out in the second half and played so well.

What ever anyone's thoughts on the protests, it's been a long time since I felt as many skyblues fans as united as we were against Watford & derby.
It has without a shadow of doubt made a good atmosphere at the Ricoh.

Without doubt, never seen so many on their feet (not just in the corner) being vocal!

Anyone expect protest/trouble at Reading. Taking couple of possible converts and probably best to avoid any flashpoints

Protest almost certain. Trouble not unless heavy handedness occurs again. Protest doesn't have to = trouble.

not sure about that. Stewards/ police seem to have nailed their colours to the wall so don't expect anything good natured to occur from now on.

Just want to take friends to enjoy the game so could be the excitement of Lloyds stand
