Linnell who was in a box with Hofmann the other week?
Linnell who was in a box with Hofmann the other week?Vast majority of responses to the article have said it is very one sided yet Gilbert, Linnell and Maton are praising it. Speaks volumes about the role local media have played in this.
It was news to me and most of the fanbase, if the fans had known about this at the time then there would have been an outcry against it, but of course it was hidden as those involved knew what the fans response to it would be.People have been informed , but some forget. The council talking to wasps was old news, discussed on here at the time, yet so many seemed to be surprised by it all these years later. Weird isn’t it?
I blame lots of people for the mess we’re in, but suspect that we will only start to properly recover when SISU leave, so, to me, they are the logical target.
Raising our plight? Not worth the effort then ? It’s possible we could still be playing in Northampton if no one “ got excited” about that. Just another throw away line you use same as your dig at the trust when they weren’t even mentioned.
You and peace can blame the council all you like, so best of luck with how that helps us. At least you’ll get a like from Torch...

Lays out some of the facts well.Excellent article. Lays out the facts well.
But doesn't tell the cognoscenti anything we didn't already know.
Is it really so difficult to understand that blaming the council for their role in this mess, does not rule out blaming SISU for theirs?
There is no such opportunity, where have you got that idea?Ahh,but there's still an opportunity for the club to buy a half share. Are our owners prepared to do that?
Suppose it all boils down to envisaged outcomes as to when this all finally concludes. Some on here seem to thing Sisu gaining control of the Ricoh means club and stadia combined leads to a quick sale to more benevolent owners. I'd disagree. Think it far more likely they'd retain stadium ownership and sell the club thus at the mercy of any rent Sisu wishes to charge. You really wouldn't ever get rid of them then....
If someone publishes an analysis of how CCFC has got to this terrible situation, it should be comprehensive in terms of the contributors. People pull one sided reports apart because they cause people who are ignorant of all the facts to vent their spleen on only one of the guilty parties. It is obvious PR.
??????????Normally like reading the Guardian but that’s a hugely one-sided piece. Wasps and the council being “reasonable”. Give over. As everyone says, SISU have done a lot wrong, but so have the other parties and to then go and brand them reasonable is a complete and utter joke.
Reading that, they don’t seem to hate wasps’ hedge fund.David conn well respected and knows his stuff but it’s the guardian and they hate hedge funds
??????????
Or perhaps someone with enough backbone to consider the people of coventry are not be held to ransom by a hedge fund bleeding money from a local assetYou’d have to be a moron and hypocrite to think that an owner who has moved a club 100 miles from its home is a suitable custodian.

Really? Is that how it works? If only I’d known that when I mentioned I blame lots of people (just for clarity that also means the council and pre SISU board members.
I hear that these articles don’t change anything anyway, yet the same people still want to pull them apart if they don’t criticise the council. Weird.
That's still not removing support from us if they are floaters anyway. Compare and contrast, top flight Wasps nearly become English champions whilst at the Ricoh and they're still giving tickets away by the bucket load. We make a Wembley appearance in two 3rd rate contests and average 40,000.There's an 'entertainment' quota who just want to go, pretend they can see themselves on the telly, and just enjoy a load of people facing off against one another.
If we were in the top flight, we'd have a damned site more of them, and take more of them from Wasps.
There's a hardcore of people who support clubs till they die, but there's some who just want a good day out. If we're not about to offer that, they'll go to the alternative (Wasps) and vice versa, if Wasps aren't about.
I hear you're a racist now Nick....
Something for that gap toothed gypo to hide behind.
Says it all really.

Why on earth would you be insecure about it?
I hear you're a racist now Nick....
You need to be apologising for this right away.
Yes Nick, coz Gypo's, Pikey's, Knackers whatever you wanna call them are all the same aren't they? Hitler had the right idea with the gas chambers etc...Ha, a bit desperate isn't it to try and play a racism card?
Seems like people like you are doing enough apologising for everybody.
Yes Nick, coz Gypo's, Pikey's, Knackers whatever you wanna call them are all the same aren't they? Hitler had the right idea with the gas chambers etc...
Are you going to apologise for referring to an ethnic minority in a derogatory way, yes or no?It's OK, you can blame me for some ISIS terrorism too while you are at it if it means you can try and discredit for pointing your shit out.

From an Irish family too kid, you of all people should not be making light of this racism, because it is and you know it.I have a small gap between my two front teeth and come from an Irish family...i’m currently building a sign on a bedsheet with “down with this sort of thing”

Nothing like it at all. A few years back, we won 2-1 at Barnsley with Freddie Eastwood being amongst the scorers. On the CWR phone in a quite drunk caller rang in and said "I know he's a Gypo an that, but he played brilliant today". The caller was immediately cut off and an apology issued straight away.For using the word "gypo"? I think I will just sit and watch at your desperation to try and discredit about something.
It's up there with CJ trying to play a disability card because I asked him if he didn't hear something said in the same room he was in.
