for our owners to show the FL and FA plans on where we'll be for the start of next season? I have no clue.
This season would be far more better personally if we had stability of knowing we're not homeless in 7 month.

I was trying to think, when did they announce the news of the move to Northampton? Was it during the season before or in the summer?

Edit: Just found this, could be that they don't announce any future groundshare until the season is over

Coventry City set to groundshare with Northampton Town

Take it your assuming nothings happening in the background? I’m sure the FL are fully aware!

To be honest, until we kicked off in Northampton for the first game there, did anybody really believe some kind of solution wouldn't have been found?

No, I'm still waiting on the stadium plans you harped on about all summer nearly 4 years ago...

Whether the FL are fully aware or not, the people who count most, the fans, haven't a scooby doo, do they!!!!

Everything you are sure of evaporates into nothing.

Having written to the FL on several occasions I have little faith.

They are aware but they don’t actually care where we play as long as they have a quiet life. If Joy and Tim arranged a groundshare with Gillingham they’d say no at first but then allow it anyway when they refuse to behave and act reasonably.

The Football League isn’t just Shaun Harvey and Ian Lenagan. It’s also Tim Fisher, Roland Duchâtelet, Ehab Allam, Karl Oyston and a few dozen others. What chance do we have with that lot making the decision to allow a groundshare whilst sipping cocktails during their annual jolly in Portugal?

More PR overdrive, have they commented about any football yet or is it because we are doing well they have refrained?

I notice they have put out another predictable statement about CCFC / court stuff to blur the lines a bit

I don't see that mentioning the court case is 'blurring the lines', Nick. That said, I certainly don't expect that bloody Seppala woman to reply, but I would be surprised if Wasps didn't (even if it was a standard non-commital response).

No, I meant the second bit trying to push the approach I predicted a few weeks ago to whip up anger at CCFC

so let me get this straight about your posts here and on twitter Nick..........

letters to Seppala, & Richardson/Eastwood of SISU & Wasps respectively (none of which are actually CCFC in any sense) challenging them to tell the CCFC fans what is going about a home ground for next season or facts in explanation of the legal status of "CCFC"/Otium is PR designed to whip up anti CCFC feeling? How exactly?

They were regarding the one about ccfc, not the open letters... Yes it is to whip up some anger at ccfc, as I pointed out would be pushed a few weeks ago and is part of the silly pr games that go on from all sides.

Radio silence about anything football though.

How about the approach of yes sisu are wankers but let's get fully behind robins, the players and ccfc also?

Open letters are just... Open letters.

Wasn't it said on CWR last night that they were hoping for an announcement regarding a new deal at the Ricoh before Xmas? How often do the Trust expect updates, every hour?

If the trust are anything like me they probably expected an update six months ago or at least before the season kicked off. You might be enjoying the uncertainty of where we're playing next season but others aren't. What's the problem with the trust asking the question until the overdue answer has arrived? Not sure why you'd have an issue with the trust asking a valid question myself. As a CCFC fan I would have thought that the fact it has to be asked repeatedly is the problem, not the question itself.

At no point have I said I enjoy uncertainty, just wondering what they expect to have changed since the update given on CWR yesterday?

tbf, that announcement could be that there's no announcement!

Or that we're off to Belfast...

The letter was sent before the statement was made on CWR.

That's an empty statement tbh. I hope to be a millionaire by Christmas.

Also worth pointing out that the trust did say some time ago that they'll send a letter after each home game this season with a countdown of how many home games we have left at the Ricoh so no, not "every hour?".

Also worth pointing out that they're not only sending a letter to SISU, they're also sending letters asking questions of our landlords. I thought that would have pleased you if nothing else?

I have to say, regardless of who you blame for all of this, it'd be kind of nice to know where we're playing next season...
