SISU told them if they don't hand in their shares, they would not buy the Club.

Is that when they forced Elliott to go and blackmail other shareholders on their behalf, to give their shares to SISU.

Give your arse a chance. SISU told them if they don't hand in their shares, they would not buy the Club.
Starting another row which you know you won't win. You proved that by not answering my question from yesterday.

What by giving you a response to an analogy a 5 year old would be embarrassed of. It's you with your head in your arse sunshine....

You couldn't answer the question so you chose to run away to another thread and start spouting more shit mate. My question was straight forward, it wasn't hard was it?

By chief blackmailers Elliott and Hoffman.
Do you guys hate Joe Elliott because he is an irritation to Sisu ?
I can't for love nor money understand why Sisu never get slagged off as much as everybody else by some on here.
You can't defend the undefencable but great effort in trying.

Didn't the last owners forgo their loses when Sisu took over ?
Robinson lost £25M after writing off a loan I believe. There were others including normal fans giving up their shares for nothing.
Sisu should do the same, put it up for sale and see who takes us up.
Come on Sisu "Let's be 'aving you"

Is that the same Robinson who whilst on the board let the meglomaniac Richardson spend spend spend, starting the ball rolling to the cluster f*ck the club is now?

You mean the Joe Elliott that was part of the SISU clusterfuck until 2010/11??

But you probably conveniently ignore that.

Perhaps if you removed your blinkers you would see that SISU have been slagged off to death, its just some people see that others have played a role, and point it out.

If you only look at a small portion Italia, you will never see the bigger picture.

It was mostly his money surely ?
I think they call them sugar daddies these days.
The mess was over committing to the stadium and not taking up the option on the land when it came due. It was a great business case as the council later found out when they took it over.

Quite simle question really...Rolls Royce garage(Richardson) sells car to customer(SISU) Customer does fuck all about servicing the car and sells it to you. Do you blame original owners, or do you blame the guy that sold the car to you after owning for 8+ years?

If it was all his money how did we owe the Co-op Bank so much? Why did we borrow so much?

Like I said the board were happy to let Richardson spend away, starting the ball rolling to where we are now. Like I said there is a bigger picture to this whole mess.

Sisu get let off on here as the vocal few think the answer to the problem lies elsewhere. A Sisu out sticky might be a start.

Do Rolls Royce Garages normally hold 60 million debt?

Yes a SISU out sticky will make all the difference. :banghead:

I bet SISU will see that and be off, or will they look at it and think its there to flannel the vanity of people who have too much time on their hands but ask for the ridiculous to make them feel better.

Still like to see it so we can channel our hate of them.
Grendel could have one for hate of the council.
Might even start one about me.

Another one that doesn't read posts properly...

Did anyone force SISU into buying CCFC?.... Were they threatened?... Did they do "Due Diligence" of course they... wait a minute:oops::oops::oops:
They knew nothing about football as has been shown by their subsequent actions, but relied on advice from Ray Ranson.
He then ran away when he realised how SISU wanted to run the club, but it was he who brought them in but somehow escapes criticism.

Retiring chairman Joe Elliott admitted he was delighted to welcome hedge fund Sisu Capital and Ranson to the club.

"This is a very exciting day in the long, proud history of Coventry City Football Club and I am positive that will be reflected in the attendance for Saturday's game against Southampton," said Elliott.

If only they knew then, what we know now!

I remember everyone involved saying what a grand new day it was for us, although how many of the smiles were through gritted teeth we'll never know. I personally recall being incredibly relieved it went through in time as administration would have probably meant we'd end up in League One. Doesn't even bear thinking about

Very true, and yet no mention whatsoever about "Handing over shares for nothing as being one of the conditions of takeover" ;)
Stiff upper lip, and smile comes to mind.

Not me mate. Never wanted them anywhere near my Club, even before they "Bought" us. In fairness not a lot of Football fans will have known what a "Hedge Fund" was ;)
