    Rochdale (Away) Match Thread

    Yeah, a good game, excellent City support but penalties are a horrible way of deciding a game and M62 closure was a real pain. But given it was only a couple of days ago it was stated on here that "the hierarchy of the Sky Blue Trust" don't want success under sisu I'm not sure why you, CJ and at...

    Ffs

    Assume 'they enjoy it' is the key and there's nothing wrong with that. This forum has never reflected the real world. I'm looking forward to going to Rochdale and Millwall and being with City fans who will be doing nothing other than supporting the team and hoping for a good evening/day out. If...

    Sisu make official complaint over Coventry councillors' conduct

    OK then. I worked for the Local Government Ombudsman 1994-2001. Job title was Investigator. But not very Magnum like if truth be told.

    If we go down what will sisu do?

    Don't disagree and this is what I always assumed. But current situation seems to be leading to some speculation that there must be a minimum level of income sisu require to keep going - in a hypothetical scenario if we are relegated, no players sold and 1k STs purchased, would that minimum...

    Originally Posted by CCFC They will just the playing bill and we will meander around L2 for years to come. Agreed. Revenue doesn't decrease by that much between L1 and L2 compared to championship to L1, plus FFP rules are slightly tighter. They will just continue to try and run the club...

    If we go down what will sisu do?

    Genuine question - do sisu have a plan A for if we survive and a plan B for if we don't (e.g. that's why STs are being delayed) or as some people seem to be speculating, if we're relegated is our projected income so low that they'll just walk away?

    The money in the premier league

    Unless I'm getting completely the wrong end of the stick isn't the West Ham price cut a good thing?

    Season ticket sales drive from SISU

    Wasn't it stated at one point that Ranson was on £650k? Some people no doubt believe people like RR, TF, SW etc deserve rich rewards, others may disagree.

    Season ticket sales drive from SISU

    Another question might be how much do Tim Fisher and Steve Waggott cost and could their roles be done cheaper?

    Wasps want to play on Saturdays...

    The sixfields/wasps arguments have been repeated so often it might save a lot of time if there was just a sticky that listed them e.g. temporary/nomadic; just wanted to support my team/just want to watch top flight rugby etc etc

    Wasps want to play on Saturdays...

    Otis is right - weren't there statements about that ship has sailed, the club has moved on etc?

    Wasps want to play on Saturdays...

    Coventry playing in Northampton was wrong. Wasps playing in Coventry is wrong. Simple.

    Price reduction : Guess the crowd for Crewe

    Even without Man U, in recent times Crewe JPT and Gillingham show we can get big crowds but isn't that different to getting decent attendances week in week, especially thinking ahead to next season?

    Price reduction : Guess the crowd for Crewe

    Price is important but is just one element in why we have low crowds. Criticising people for not going is one response - reaching out to supporters to understand why they no longer go and what it would take for them to return might prove more productive. But the answers may not make for pleasant...

    we're missing something

    As per previous post/s, information about ML and the Blair finances is in the public domain so does provide some factual base as opposed to our personal views of him which are less flattering than the esteem in which he is held by others.

    we're missing something

    Yeah, all points to opaqueness and even (institutional) investors not really knowing what's going on. We never had any success in getting national financial journalists interested in the ccfc story and I remember one saying some journos had spent a lot of time on the Blair financial empire...

    we're missing something

    Others on here may know if this is true or not, but another strand of how hedge funds operate apparently is that the complexity and opaqueness of the arrangements they make (which is the point I've been making in this thread) means that even investors don't understand the details and are left...

    we're missing something

    Good point. Seems to be a shared skill of buttering people up but when they decide you're not onside you see a very different side to them!
