Could it be that since June 10th Joy Sepalla has become the sole director of SISU Capital Limited and this enabled her to become more open without the restrictions. To be fair she has been criticised for not speaking publicly yet some are now criticising her for doing so. Let's just hope this is the start of more openness from SISU. She has done more to inform us of events in one interview than Tim Fisher has done in 4 years !

Nothing earth shattering even in the extended clip, hopefully Sky make the whole interview available. Does seem to have prompted Gilbert into action on some of the issues we've wanted digging in to for a while, hopefully he continues down that road and doesn't just accept whatever waffle the likes of Wasps come out with.

Thought she came across well, of course people have to make up their own minds if they believe her or not but there was nothing especially controversial. Certainly didn't see anything that made me think it was right to keep her away from the media for so long. Who knows how different things would be now if the club hadn't let the council and Wasps dictate the story unchallenged for so long.

So JS gives a poor me interview and it gets swallowed. Not by me, this is the second time her company has taken ccfc out of its city. So let’s go back to the first time, was there any interviews pre-Northampton I’m sorry about it,no, that was despite demonstrations , national debate and the matter raised in the House. In fact I don’t think she knew ccfc existed before the Northampton debacle hit the national media. Now all of a sudden it’s poor me, I didn’t want to do it but had no choice I’m sorry but had to do it, bollocks. Only in April she offered to drop the legals if she was granted a site and permission to build a new ground, knowing this EC appeal had been lodged and cannot be changed until fruition with the EU in February. She knew that, court battles are her and her company’s forte. I believe something has spooked her, perhaps she has an idea it ain’t going to plan, either way it’s the fan who suffers the hardship, embarrassment of her companys actions. Has even tried to link some burglary in, pathetic.

You keep proving you have no idea what you are talking about though? You keep getting shown you have fuck all clue about the football when you try so you try to wing it. Now it's a choice to take CCFC out of the city?

Even she pays up to charity donations as well.

Nobody has swallowed anything, and the comments have pretty much all been in agreement, that we have learned nothing new based on what we have seen, and that her appearance is long overdue. What comments are you reading?

As for "Only in April she offered to drop the legals if she was granted a site and permission to build a new ground". Firstly, the legals were dropped. Secondly, that request wasn't made because it is impossible and even if it were true, you are saying that she demanded planning permission to build a ground you don't believe will be built? That would have been a bit of a result for the council wouldn't it?

There's a couple of clips here:
Coventry City (Sky Sports)

They might add more later. The reporter tweeted that as there's been so much interest they might try and post the whole interview online.

What I do know is people like Joy Sepalla, a hard nosed secretive business woman, criticised numerous times by judges in various courts don’t suddenly change a business lifetime without selfish reasons.

Are you saying SISU should have agreed to Wasps demands and indemnified them in order to stay at the Ricoh ? If not, don't blame them for having to play at St.Andrews.

Not sure about this rich rugby club backer for Hoffman. One of the dailies (poss FT) did a piece on Richardson's finances that suggested he doesn't have the resources to buy a football club.

I would love to see the WASPs offer to SISU was as it might open up peoples eyes to hostile takeovers? But there is a NDA so we have got no chance to see it unless Mr Thicko Duggins blurts it out unintentionally

Ok what we’ve learned is that on the two occasions when she’s made public pronouncements abt our club (firstly to Les Reid and secondly to Sky) she’s proven more effective at PR than anyone else remotely connected to SiSU. And certainly much more effective than the response from Tim Fisher who forgot the charm in the charm-offensive. Both times she’s pulled on the heartstrings (the first time she was a devout Christian, the second she fears for her children) but there was a residual message that definitely cut through. The first occasion caused the leading CET journalist (as it was at the time) to rethink his outlook - and was eventually forced out. This second occasion has set the cat among the pigeons in several places.

In 12 years this is only the second time that I’ve seen any evidence of SiSU actually being any good at anything. Why haven’t they done this/ used her more?

Best sales pitch I've heard in ages.
As a rugby club 'they've topped out'. Nicely put.
Either wasps put up the dough or let us back in the Ricoh.
