2-3k st will be sold looks like. A shame fir robins budget but hopefully on flipside it may make sisu thibk about accepting a bid and leaving.

na. That will be one of the largest amount in League Two, enabling MR to have a budget to compete.

Budget wise, we will be a force next season. Its what we do with it that counts.

 

[Adge]

Ditto. I think quite a few will do the same.

This. Me too.

 

[mark82]

I will be going but refuse to give them my money upfront.
So no ST for me.
To many broken promises to ever trust them again.
PUSB God help us.

So you'll give them more money, and Robins gets a lower budget. I respect your right to do as you please, just seems a strange way to go about it. You're wanting to hurt Sisu by giving them more cash which won't get put towards the playing budget?

Lots of drama queens on here.Im renewing my two,can't see why not.

 

[higgs]

IF Robins puts together a decent squad why not renew? Hopefully only one season in league two and then rebuild for another chance of getting back to the championship

Not bothering just yet! Want to seek if their arse holes are tweeking come the 31st May

Is there ?.

Looks like we will get 3,000 season ticket holders. That will be a drop of 2k or so, of which not even 100 have been on here saying that aren't renewing.

It's the quiet lot we need to be concerned about. At least people posting on here are still engaged with the club in some way

Might have missed something but not sure how people not renewing STs are drama queens. Think it's from Saving Private Ryan but heard someone say the reason they've had enough is ccfc is fucked up beyond all recognition. FUBARs?

Guys I know round our way have finally decided to not renew after 20 odd continuous years............One reason and one reason only.............SISU ! Sick of the lies and false promises, sick of the court cases and sick of that antagonistic twat, Tim Fisher ! Everyone does it with a terrible sadness though and it doesn't sit well but sadly like me, they'll find other stuff to do on a Saturday and the afternoon doesn't usually end with angry disappointment.

I think its really sad and cant have been an easy decision. sadly the owners (and some on here) don't care

*People who buy ST's are just peasants, cheap people trying to save themselves a few bob without even helping the club much, just contributing to a weeks wage to an u18 for one week... what about everyone else at the club? How can they class themselves as super fans?

I pay on the day, family of 4, every game, giving the club over quadruple what these ST's peasants give. *

Not sure what I am more indignant about - being called a peasant, or being called a peasant by someone form 'Beduff'. Off to consult my legal team !!

But it will help them stay self sufficent, and anyway I don't believe all this we will spend it all on players shit been saying it for to long with nothing to show for it.

No I believe only the owners don't care.

I believe we all care just have different opinions on how to show it.

very different.

Read some of the responses on this thread.

Well done mate, you're a hero. Fight the good fight.

Validation denied.

superfan stuff aside it does seem like every thread reflects whats going on for real. facebook,twitter and real life(!) friends and colleagues all seem to be declining to buy one. well not all but a majority.

 

[jjglory]

What is the matter with everyone. If you're not getting one - fine, your decision. Why start a(nother) thread about it . I'm getting one and have persuaded my mate to get one. Yes the club are going through it, but I just like following the City and meeting up with my mate. If SISU take us out of the City (a la Northampton) I won't get one, but otherwise I will. Really dislike our owners, but I'm going to have zero impact on their decision making, so I'm just going to try and 'outlast them!'. Shame for those who feel the need to give up, but I respect their right to do do.

. Sorry to see some of our "Special Fans" are still going to invest in SISU but these are the sort that will go regardless. Not having one and would encourage others not to buy STs. If they do still have the urge to go up just pick and choose and pay on the gate. Do you not understand that all the lies and bullshit will continue until we are finished. To get rid of this lot we need to starve them and if that means no budget then let it be.

Relegation was always going to see a decline, mind you.

WOuld be pretty mental if it hadn't!

It's not starving SISU though is it?

So if you were the owners(Whomever they are) of Coventry city fc/Otium(Who haven't got a pot to piss in) get no financial imput from fans/supporters of CCFC. Where do they get money from to pay the rent/wages of staff/out of pocket expenses/coach to travel to away games ect, ect?.....That would be SISU/Arvo then!

All those examples are of CCFC starving.

The budget then goes down to pay people £150 a week, rinse and repeat.

SISU won't be starving, their backs will be covered.

Then the budget will be cut down to the bare minimum I.e solidarity payments and sponsorship - I'm pretty sure they have a budget cut plan to take into account 0 fans

 

[skybluesam66]

it is starving ccfc and sisu
because as CCFC value tends closer to zero , so therefore does the value of Sisu's investment
Whatever anybody says you cannot detach the 2

when will you realise SISU and ccfc are the same at the moment they own us via otium

 

[ajsccfc]

I don't believe they can be scared off or smoked out, they'll just adjust accordingly and if it means we drop further so be it. The only possible salvation I can see is someone making them a good enough offer.

 

[Nick]

They clearly aren't the same though, are they?

CCFC going bust tomorrow isn't SISU going bust. Seppalla isn't going to lose her house and live in a box.

Perfectly put. Its so simple and yet people just cant see it.

I don't go regularly due to other commitments (but would love to) but I am just tempted to get one so I can become one of your highlighted 'Special Fans'
Can you make me a badge?

 

[HuckerbyDublinWhelan]

Thing is they don't care about the football aspect of the business. They're not bothered about leagues etc like the fans.

All they want is the business to be break even, if that means paying 18 people off the street minimum wage, they'd probably do it.

Like I said the club pays for itself, we will not receive any further financial support from our owners.

If anything they're more likely to close us than sell us.

Fiat are not the same as Ferrari though are they, and they own that

Exactly, it's at arms length to tick over.
