We Shouldn't Be Ashamed To Go To Northampton
By ML
One Man's View
My two boys and I have travelled from Derbyshire to see Coventry City's English pre-season friendlies. It was marvellous to see how Pressley is bringing his young players on.
It was a joy to watch and just emphasises the great shame of making our children suffer by not taking them to see the Sky Blues because of SISU's and ACL's actions!
Further, we do not believe it is right to abandon the players when others are at fault.
They shouldn't be punished for the errors of others. For some of them, this is the only chance they'll have. What a tragedy to starve them of our applause.
We can still protest, complain and make a noise, but it is cruel to abandon the team we love.
I also believe that we shouldn't feel intimidated by those who feel differently. That's their rightful choice. Our preference is to let our love of the team dominate our actions. For me, that's the greater good.
We shouldn't be ashamed to go to Northampton and give our children the delight of seeing their favourite players in action. We shouldn't crucify our own children's development and starve our players of our support by failing to give them our voices, applause and hearts.
I'm sorry, but I profoundly disagree with this person because you won't be watching CCFC but Coventry Cobblers. You will be hastening the demise of OUR football club which, under the ownership of these asset strippers, will be no more. The only way, in mine and many others view, is to stop income to the owners which will hasten its demise.
One other practical point for those paying into pension funds. If it's been suggested before, my apologies. Get in touch with your pension providers and see if they are investing into any SISU related companies and if they are write to your provider asking them to disinvest giving your reason.
Excellent points made by the guy from Derbyshire and I totally agree.I will continue to support my team by going to our "home" games although I wholeheartedly hate the whole sisu/acl with a passion.Just out of interest Wigan,how many home games do you go to? And what alternative do you suggest to starving the club of income?
Yes, he would be better teaching his kids something about right and wrong- and how Sisu are wrong and how people in the wrong need to be opposed (as the vast majority are doing!)
Yes, no self respecting City fan should follow at Sixfields. It is supporting this stupid idea. An insult to us all.
Another post by a SISU employee, by going to Sixfields you are supporting SISU not the the team, and perlong the agony #nopm

The only people who should be ashamed are those who wish to isolate and condemn their FELLOW FANS for doing what they think is right to getting their club back.
Whichever choice is made.
The choice is one to be made but as many have said before all these people are doing is putting nails in our coffin.
If people want to go, then they are free to do so. It's not for me to judge them.
Its easy
Go to Sixfields and you are supporting SISU plan.
If enough of you go they will continue on with it, the exact number that will justify it for them is unknown.
Don't go and SISU and the FL and the Administrator will have to change there plans and seriously consider the Ricoh as the only option.
The nearer it is to zero the better for getting back to the Ricoh.
Most people realise this and are unhappy that getting back to the Ricoh is jeopardised by the minority.
Your travelling anyway so go away to support the team. Nobody can justify only going to Sixfields.
Sympathy's to those that go "Home" and away, but just hang on a few weeks because that is all it will take.

Is this really the level we dumb down to?
If people want to go, then they are free to do so. It's not for me to judge them.
Listen people if you want to go then go if you dont want to go then dont simple
Are you shocked?
Anyone who does go has to accept we will never come back if we are thedre for more than a few months.
Will never be a new stadium, even if it did happen the rent would be more than the offer on the table now.
We are finished in Coventry unless at thew Ricoh, those who go are not helping anyone, even the players.
It's about the football,I will be watching my football team
Listen people if you want to go then go if you dont want to go then dont simple
You come across as a total pillock. You pillock.
If enough people go they will be going for a long time.
Home and away ?
