Quite agree Rev, I've got 19 season tickets under my belt behind me but as much as I want the club to succeed I cannot now bare to feed these parasites who have never been interested in anything other than acquiring the arena. I feel sorry for fans like Italia as they assume that their hard earned money will actually help things. Any serious alternative investors will know that there are literally thousands of City fans waiting in the wings for these vermin to give up and move on.

Would you agree though Ashdown that they are the only ones that are keeping us alive at the moment? Would you also agree that when they have their 'chunk' as you put it that will actually bring them closer to departing from us as they will have an 'asset' to sell and move on from?

I wish like the vast majority that they would just move on now but they won't do that will they when they are holding all the debt of £40m plus and need to recoup some of that at the very least.

If the Council/Higgs/ACL and co can get the right agreements protecting what they can and can't do when they get that 'chunk' then it may be the only option to move forward at this point in time.

When I buy something from a shop or even online I want to know exactly what I am getting for my money. Why would anyone want to buy a season ticket ATM when we don't have a clue what sort of squad we will have. We might only have a squad of academy players left for the start of next season. If this was the case how many would be happy with their season ticket purchase?

They'll all be singing SISU out and getting their bedsheets ripped from them by the orange coated bullies.....................they'll still be minus £300 though !

Oh I agree Astute.
But I'm merely trying to get away from the 'blame' game so much and start to look at what the reality is in the 'here and now'.

As for my football club and my undivided attention and support, then i pretty much don't care who own them, who the team are made up of or who the manager is....those are all superficial to me when compared to supporting the club each week from the place i was born and bred in.

Their success or lack of it has no bearing for me in the first instance.

Call me Mr Thickie Stupid if you wish, but it doesn't make any difference to me. I'll support 'em even if there were eleven academy kids out there. Collectively, those eleven players are Coventry City and I support Coventry City. Easy choice for me.

I understand why others choose not to go, but I think it's time those on "both sides" dropped the subject. Some will go, others won't. We've discussed and re-discussed and discussed again for months. It's not getting us anywhere, is it?

But this is my point, if SISU tell me that for my £300 all they can afford is to put out a team full of academy kids, that to balance the books they will have to sell anyone earning £5000 a week, and that for the next 3 seasons they can't invest or buy anyone, then thats all i want to know.

Once they tell me the truth, and if they confirm all the above is going to happen ,i will happily pick up the phone and order my 3 season tickets, and i will sing my heart out for those 11 kids week in week out. I will sing like I've never sung before so every lad on that pitch hears it. Its the lies ,lies and more lies i can't stand, all i ask is for is just for one time, can you please tell me and others , the truth

All anyone who is'nt buying there season ticket at the moment want is the Truth, once they get it then i would think the majority of them will buy there's, but these bunch of London wise boys, and that hoorah henrietta Joy ,are doing is killing my club right in front of my eyes, and until they are honest and forthright i will not help them strangle to death something i treasure

the 2 year deal was the previous year so these are genuine renewals

I have personally renewed as ccfc are my team and they will be long after sisu left
£13 for 3 hours out on a saturday afternoon is not bad value , and it beats shopping!!
I would expect there to be around 6-7k once the season starts - and our gates will be 10-13k based on how we fare

I would rather go shopping than watch the crap I did last year and I would get something worth having and what I had paid for

PS pressed the like button by mistake

There's no investment in the team from these clowns no matter what happens, they're investors are £40m in the hole and that hasn't gone into the team so 32000 every match wouldn't make a difference, it's obvious isn't it?
