Yes, but it is just a hypothetical vote. It isn't going to mean anything to SISU.

No but it tells you something...that some people have given up and are prepared to accept that a new stadium is all that's on offer!

I sense from the results so far that if the poll had posed the same questions but with the caveate that SISU were not the owners but some A N Other that the poll would have some very different answers?
30% say they would not attend regardless. Well that means you don't care about having a football club at all? that can't be true or you would not be on this forum?
Like I said too many people are assuming SISU remain the owners. owners come and go. They won't be the last.
If there is a stadium within striking distance of our fair City such as Brandon or Ryton etc etc then of course we would be content with that wouldn't we? After all the Ricoh when built had plenty complaining because it was so far out from Highfield Road but that argument soon died.
Imagine for a moment Hoffman and good old Joe got their hands on our club and they built a new stadium because they too could not achieve a decent arrangement for the Ricoh that served the club well? Is it any different?

In effect 79% say, the club should return the Ricoh!

It should be 100% saying the club returns to Coventry no matter what ground it is at.

What drugs are you on?

Our club should be playing its home games in Coventry. Full stop. And for saying that I am not pro CCFC? Or is anyone that says our club should be playing in Coventry anti CCFC?

Or is your problem that I didn't slag off CCC or ACL in a post?

But it's never going to be convenient for everyone is it? It might inconvenience you and me but be fine for another 500 people. Whatever happens (as with the RIcoh), it won't suit everyone.

2 1/2 Miles from me. 40 mins walk. I would be hard pushed to get the stadium nearer although there is Hawkesbury of course. Or Off Course?

No, I think his problem is the people saying they wouldn't return no matter where it was?

New owners wouldn't buy the club, keep us in northampton for 5 years to then move into a 15k seater stadium outside Coventry, they wouldn't do this because it's bloody stupid, it makes no financial sense whatsoever. Should new owners try this they would get the exact same criticism as sisu whoever they are.

You are right that the poll would get different answers without sisu though, I won't come to a new stadium under sisu, I don't accept that there would be a new stadium under new owners, but should sisu build a new stadium (which isn't going to happen) and then sell the stadium and club as a package (which also won't happen, I don't believe sisu could even get back what they spend building the stadium doing this and certainly not that + their loses while building) I would then attend the new stadium under the new ownership weather or not the stadium was within the boundaries of Coventry or not. Assuming under this exceptionally unlikely million to 1 scenario that I haven't completely given up on football and ccfc by then after 5 years of the city not having a club and being owned by Villains.
