Should we return to the Ricoh how many would we sell? This would be unpopular but I would be happy for SISU to say IF we sell 15,000 ST's we will bring the club home. Pure blackmail but it would give them funds to get better players, garentee the fans an atmosphere and frankly if we can't sell 15k given all the sleeper fans we have in Coventry and the surrounding areas and the unique circumstances we are in then its a sad state of affairs.
Only if the money was ring fenced to be spent on CCFC and not suing the world. or being sent to a load of tax dodging investors whose bank accounts are in the Cayman Isles.

Even if that were a real possibility I don't think that they would sell that many. The fan base has been so diluted by recent events that most have found other things to do on matchdays.

Ok maybe being more realistic say 10k? This should be attainable based on previous seasons and would ensure attendances of 12k for home games (something we often have had in the past). As for fans doing other things now, I am sure a successful team and the magic of watching your team win in coventry would galvanise our loyal fans once again.
@ ccfc1234...............It's a real possibilty that 10-12k crowds could be achieved, but don't forget, There's a large amount of fans who won't even consider going back to the Ricoh until SISU have gone(Myself included) I'm willing to do an "Grenduffy" and "Estimate" (not as a fact though) If SISU were gone, a crowd of about 18-20k rising if financial backing with real prospects of promotions were aimed for.

I think you are right SBK. I wonder just how many fans are now in the situation that they desperately want CCFC back home but hate SISU with such a passion that they will not buy season tickets whilst they remain in charge. It is a real dilemma for some. I used to buy 3 ST for my family before the move away. I really struggle at this moment to determine what I might do if we return to the RICOH. I think I will not buy ST until SISU have gone or demonstrate a more reasonable management of the club. So will probably buy tickets for each match, that way I can go safe in the knowledge that I can support the team but on my terms not Timmy's
