I have pointed that out, they couldn't understand it.
I'm sure I read that they got permission to use the name, but The Jimmy Hill Way is more of an insult to him than anything Sunderland fans could come up with in their wildest dreams.
Not sure if it’s an insult, I’ll say this JH was Unwell for a few years before passed away, had he been his old self I’m certain he would have been at the fore front of any protests big time against Northampton and other things so the name “Jimmy Hill Way” is perhaps appropriateI'm sure I read that they got permission to use the name, but The Jimmy Hill Way is more of an insult to him than anything Sunderland fans could come up with in their wildest dreams.

I've thought for some time that the views expressed on this site are not closely aligned with those of the majority of the fan base.
Compare the graphic of Cov Tel survey (390 responses) below with the poll above. It shows a marked difference.
Whether that is due to better knowledge of people who post on this site or misplaced optimism I can't say, but there is definitely an air of gloom out there.
All SISU have to do is stop the legals and the problem goes away, but they won't and I don't understand why, Where is the upside to their decision?

A third of our fans think we basically won’t exist in our current form after this season.
Except that is exactly what Wasps have said and indeed what they have made crystal clear months ago.They could not have been clearer and indeed they have repeated that position many times.If Wasps point blank refuse to negotiate with us that totally moved the goalposts and we can of course protest.
No ship sailed there. That would be a total change of direction. They dealt with us last year with a legal battle ongoing, so if this year they say no deal that means a shift in position.
If Wasps say no deal we should totally and significantly protest and I do feel we would, because that could well be the end of Coventry City.
That is not going to paint Wasps in a very good light at all, Sisu or no Sisu.
They made it crystal clear last year too. They said exactly the same thing about Sisu having to drop the court cases.Except that is exactly what Wasps have said and indeed what they have made crystal clear months ago.They could not have been clearer and indeed they have repeated that position many times.
Protest by doing what, boycotting Wasps games? Most Coventry City don't go anywhere near Wasps games and rightly so. I can't imagine what any fan can do legally,that will force a change of mind by Wasps.

Of course we don't go to Wasps games.
We therefore encourage those that do go to boycott games and also encourage then to switch to Cov rugby.
We should already be doing it anyway, but a real campaign to divert people away from Wasps and on to Cov.
Oh, unlike Brexit then.Vote cast. I'm not bothering to vote again if the answer isn't what you wanted.
So exactly the same as last year when they then changed their minds and agreed a new deal for this season.Except that is exactly what Wasps have said and indeed what they have made crystal clear months ago.They could not have been clearer and indeed they have repeated that position many times.
Yup. Same scenario.So exactly the same as last year when they then changed their minds and agreed a new deal for this season.
Otis I still think CCC too should be approached, when signing the sales contract with Wasps they did mention the protection of both CCFC and CRFC, they now say they only meant the term of our then rental agreement so why mention us in the same breath as the rugby club who are not subject to a 4 year contract. This surely points out they have clearly moved the goalpostsIf Wasps point blank refuse to negotiate with us that totally moved the goalposts and we can of course protest.

Dunno will come back to you on that!Lots of don’t knows sitting on the fence
Agree completely Nick, yet I still think there's milage in questioning why we and CCRC were spoken of in the same clause yet the rugby club are not subject to this 4 year thing that the council are using to body swerve the original meaningIt still needs to be confirmed what it actually meant for CCFC. They said one thing at the time that was pretty clear, they have now gone back on it to say "no it was just 4 years, blame SISU".
What happens if SISU leave tomorrow? Is there any protection in place for the football club or are we still at the mercy of others?
Somebody like the Trust could easily question them on it, doesn't have to be shouty or name calling. Just asking them to clarify what it means for the club and their future, even beyond SISU.
