Simon is pretty accurate in his description of Joy.

I would, but then i'm 46, with glasses, bordering on red barnet, love narrowboats, collect 80's music, enjoy cutting the lawn, do not do social media, use a 12yr old phone & would rather knock one out over the lingerie section in a Freemans catalogue than to tinternet porn.

Yes, I have seen her. No picture though. My old Nokia has sellotape around it. I am very odd but a nice chap.

NOPM / Them lot Out / whatever else is doing the rounds

46 and over the hill?

Same age as me. Party harder than all my older kids but one. Running around after my little ones. Retire in just under 14 years, but not planning to slow down. Going to tour Europe during the summer months and touring England following our football club until my body can't cope anymore. You are only old when you decide you are. I am in my early 20's in my head.

Perhaps they got lost? Like paperwork relating to the transfer of player registrations and the golden share and that kind of shit.

Good point. Best get Appleton on the job, this is his forte. It should only take him six to eight months, or is that sixty eight months?

Simon, seriously your employers really need to hire better and more proactive photographers. Surely SISU didn't smuggle her in and out using a Trojan horse. She is a member of the public and would have used the same entrance/exit doors that all the public use when they attend court.

You don't see Rolf Harris and Max Clifford using the courts back doors other than when Max got shifted to Her majesty's slammer.

Dunno why she's so shy. I didn't think you could capture a vampire on photograph anyway.

There are no photos as she didn't enter or exit court via doors, she slithered through a haunted mirror.

The whole meeting was webcast so there is a video of it in council archives . As good as minutes but SISU never asked for that did they ? The judge told them bollocks anyway .

Not sure it is actually. Can't see it here: http://www.coventry.public-i.tv/core/portal/webcasts and the relevant part of the written minutes is redacted here: http://democraticservices.coventry.gov.uk/ieListDocuments.aspx?CId=130&MID=9256#AI3283 and here: http://democraticservices.coventry.gov.uk/ieListDocuments.aspx?CId=124&MID=9607#AI3291

I think that's ghosts (not that I believe in either) but that would still make sense ;-)

Don't worry. You'll get your photo. Probably.

"Again" as in there are plenty of photographers that seem able to get pics of members of the Royal Family, for example, with their boobs out...is JS really so much better skilled at avoiding the lenses?

Personally I couldn't care less what she looks like. My real reason for the post was my hate for double-negatives.

I can't tell you how much I don't like double negatives.

Forgive me if your post was intended as some kind of subtle joke, but “in camera” is simply a legal term meaning “in private”.

My favourite bit.
5. We heard the Sisu QC say that former council leader John Mutton was seen chanting 'Sisu out' at a football match. The clubs lawyers believe this is evidence of a 'secret plan' to remove Sisu as owners and bring in a third party to take over the football club.

This is probably the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard. Not very 'secret' if he's amongst thousands shouting it out.
It just gets more and more pathetic by the day.

It's also a lie. I had the misfortune to sit near Mutton at the Ricoh, he could never have sang SISU out, his gob was always full of food.

That would have been true until they mishandled the situation where possibly 20 -30 people and four or five lads with banners were mistreated ,that over-reaction led to 33-50 % In the Stadium Vocally turning on them and hhas spawned all the Vitriol toward them since IMO.

Minor history lesson.. which shows that camera derives from the latin for chamber, but it the context used it means held in private.

The motto of the City of Coventry is "Camera Principis" (the Prince's Chamber) is held to refer to Edward, the Black Prince. The Manor of Cheylesmore at Coventry was at one time owned by his grandmother, Queen Isabella, and eventually passed to him.

Well I've learnt 11 things now . Most notably that I'm a thick twat who should look up the meaning of things before I write it down on the internet for the whole world to see . Doh

I wonder, looking back now, if this wasn't where the paranoia about secret plots started.

I wonder if no-one has had the balls to tell Joy that this is par for the course and she genuinely thinks the fans are conspiring against her. I mean, she doesn't understand football, she probably just doesn't get how fans work.
