Hopefully they move the town near the South Coast, even if its only for a year - we love it down there!
Were you one of the few that had to look up 'Franchise' before you started to argue against it ?
Said it before. Wasps bought something that no one else apparently wanted.
Blame Sisu not Wasps .... or me !!!
You had every opportunity to challenge the Trust Board, but you are a coward who just sits behind a keyboard and spouts anything that comes into your little yellow mind.
The Trust are far from perfect but at least those who are involved have put themselves above the parapet and are trying to do something, unlike you who seems to live on here with the sim of being an annoying little gimp.
That's the problem isn't it? Why on earth would anyone want to be involved in the Trust when any observation against them is met with the usual string of abusive comments?
It's hardly a professional way to handle things is it? Not nice to address a fellow trust member than way is it?
Bottom line is the trust to most fans became a laughing stock when it decided to support the wasps move to Coventry. There was a definite endorsement. The fact you fail to see the invidious position this puts you in regarding taking a stance on franchised support is incredible. Ultimately the trust needs people with strategic and professional acumen to make it succeed. Even Jan who seems to possess those skills ended up looking foolish defending the indefensible.
So how do you attract people like that when every time someone questions you (and its not just me) is subjected to the same tiresome abuse? A statement should have been made denouncing the wasps move. Instead you did nothing. You didn't council the membership (and before you say there are meetings in that pub) - the only way is through polling and referendum. It's never progressed beyond the days Natalie Cox was there. It's still a closed shop for a few tub thumping extremists who represent no-one. In fact it's gone backwards. At least she was media savvy and could be an effective communicator.
Who is the trust? You, Moz and last and his brother. That's it isn't it? Head above the parapet? Above what parapet? I've never known such a one eyed closed shop that stifles discussion. You should all go to North Korea Steve - even they'd think you were regressive.
Got it ....
Destroying a teams history and fanbase in an attempt get an asset for nothing ?
Cementing a teams history and increasing it's fanbase whilst purchasing an asset at market value ?
Nice to be the other way round, but it isn't, get over it.
Market value? Weren't you squealing that Sisu that rotten hedge fund were trying to rip off a children's charity by not giving them £6 million back?
Cementing a teams history? How? By moving it and getting a larger fan base? I see. So if Dublin was a larger fan base you'd support Sisu going there? Who cares if anyone is left behind eh?

Grendel criticising others for lack of professionalism, what staggering hypocrisy from a potty mouthed keyboard warrior!
With people like you around sniping, who would want to pull the fans together?
Most see the hopelessness of dealing with Sisu, most see the success of the march yet a few keyboard warriors stop anybody coming forward to challenge for trust leadership.

You seem to have missed a few of my greatest hits out Jack. However, your hero worship of me is flattering. Now yesterday sky blue Tony said I was sad enough to dig out one post from that troglodyte from Bury. Tony - what do you make of Jack? He seems to be doing a PHD in Grendel on SBT. I think he'll struggle to get a third.
The market value at the time was what Sisu had created by moving us to Northampton.
Wouldn't Higgs at least expect what they paid CCFC for their share back, particularly as that was the agreement when they helped out CCFC cash flow by buying it ?
Didn't Sisu actually value it at zero?
Why would I want my team to move out of Coventry ?
Try and be more constructive !!
To be fair he missed out the one when I gave you the Steve Jacobs award - so much time on the pitch and no one remembers a single contribution they ever made.
I can't do anything about the situation so I just get on with it.
If it makes people feel better to rant and rave then that's life.
Most people have but about a dozen of us on here are just passing time by winding each other up.
Enjoy
I don't wind anyone up, I spend my time trying to encourage people to support the club. As you can imagine it goes down like a lead balloon on here.

There is another user on the forum who goes by Mr T - Sukka think he was referring to him and not you.
But if CCFC did move out of Coventry because it was more commercially viable and would increase the fan base I assume you'd be ok with that?
I'm with others here. You gave more stick than most to those that went to sixfields and now you support a different franchised club moved away from its fans. Hypocritical.
I support the club with a season ticket each year. Also attending most away matches.
Top class Rugby has always been on the telly until now.

Gonna have to start sacrificing those away games now they've moved the top class rugby to Saturday.
He probably tried to buy the car park field at sixfields and lost out. Such a grudge bearer.
I never gave any stick to those that went to Sixfields.
My comments mainly related to making people aware that Sisu needed people to attend long enough for ACL to fail.
CCFC hasn't got the pull to move out of Coventry and continue.
Wasps believe they have and so far it has gone well for them.
