Ok then

I think people should do what they want not what they are pressured into doing . I think it is ok to go to Sixfields. I also don't believe it is an affirmation of SISU nor will it affect us "coming home"

Secondly I think we should be back at the Ricoh . SISU could do a lot worse than negotiate a settlement.

Did you say you were Bi Curious by the way?

Cheers for answering! i agree with all have the right without pressure to do with what they decide.. I also agree with going back to the Ricoh and it being up to Sisu to accept talks..

The rest i don't agree with, but let's stick to what we both want the club back home, how do we do this then?.

As for the last comment ill pass on getting into a pissing contest as first posted, debate no problem...

Unfortunately, we don't. Only two people can make that decision: Dyke or Seppala (no homophobic jokes now).

In fairness they issued an editorial a year ago saying "If CCFC leave COV, Sisu must go" - but they never followed up on it .. probably worried abotu their reporters getting denied access to the club and losing ability to write anything meaningful in the sports section (not that it isn't mostly dross anyway)

Should I be shocked at someone moaning about the local Coventry Newspaper campaigning for Coventry to come home?

Surprisingly I am not shocked.

I'm shocked anyone buys that crap anymore. Perhaps no one does and that's why Simon is on here.

Most people don't buy papers full stop.
Certain shops have stopped selling papers.

Still wouldn't have a pop at anyone trying to get us home that's just sad

Whilst the sentiment is fine, the timing could have been better (sooner). It does look like a case of playing it safe. It just shows that even a company the size of Trinity Mirror Group will play it safe when confronted with well versed, litigious hyperbole.

They talk a good deal more sense than you ... why the bitter attitude towards anyone who doesn't sign up to the evil empire's every whim?

Can I ask what other elements are part of the Telegraphs campaign? So after the march, then what?

Hopefully all sides announce a resolution.

If not, we will reassess, take stock and then decide what the best course of action is for the Coventry Telegraph and its readers.

There are several options we have discussed, but a lot depends on the stance adopted by the various parties.

Hopefully it's all being sorted behind the scenes and we will be the last to find out. Nothing would make us happier. If not, we have a few options.

We're not naive enough to think the Coventry Telegraph alone can be the solution to the problem. But we hope we can help. Regardless, we have to try.

What more can realistically be done by ACL/CCC to get the club back? The revenues which the club are using to justify Sixfields are open for negotiation at any time as I'm sure would a new lease/ownership options.
