Has the trust made that clear publicly? Why hasn’t he made a public apology? And why on earth is he allowed to speak on the fans behalf?

The conversation was shown on the TV yesterday. I'm not sure about Ridley but Duggins is a City fan and I'm not sure if he's ever claimed to speak on behalf of the fans.

Was the plan to go the council house public before duggins didn't turn up to the meeting last week?

I honestly don't know that, I know CJ mentioned the Ricoh but think I only saw that this week. Could be wrong and missed it.

Yes

Just seen a video moz did for itv. Fair play to him, he just kept it to the point. There wasn't any silly over the top stuff for the camera.

How it should be.

Get rid of all the theatrics and keep it to things like that and it's a solid start!

Thanks Nick. I'll pass that on to him.

Joy Seppala knew we were coming. I am 100% sure of that.
That doesn't really answer my question, who was contacted? Its really easy to make SISU out to be the guilty party here, it certainly comes across that all the other meetings were well prepared and SISU was "we'll just turn up and shout".

Not for one moment suggesting anyone would have come out to meet you, but your response of "she knew" really doesn't fill me with any confidence that this meet was particularly well organised.

Please. Let’s not pretend SISU didn’t know anything was planned.

Please. Let’s not pretend the council care about the football club.

Duggins didn’t go to an important meeting at Westminster that was attended by all parties. We’re going mad at Seppala for not showing her face at a protest?

It was put on Twitter and on here.
There's not a single tweet from the theskybluetrust account that mentions protesting the council or Wasps.

There's a post Tuesday morning in a 3 week old thread about a protest at SISU HQ saying the coach will be stopping at the council and Wasps to deliver messages from fans.

Just saying if the Trust are organising a protest against all sides and want the maximum number of people to turn up maybe it would make sense to use their own channels to publicise it.

The table is tilted. It has been from the start. SISU out has been the message from the start and some can’t even begin to wrap their heads around the fact that SISU aren’t 100% to blame.

I’d love new owners, owners with cash to spare on players and stadiums but the reality is SISU won’t sell until they get an offer not generated on the back of a fag packet.

I’m not. Perhaps you can point your vile at posts that are pretending people don’t know things. There’s a good boy.

You ignore the point I made and went of on a tangent I’ve never been down. As I say, save your vile for those pretending things.

How did I ignore the point? How did I go off on a tangent? You made a point saying let’s not pretend Sisu didn’t know. So I replied with let’s not pretend the council care. Then went on to explain my thoughts. Just because it isn’t what you think, doesn’t mean I’ve ignored your point or gone off on a tangent.
Your point was Seppala don’t care or weren’t bothered, so I was adding that nor do the council. Also explained why would she meet fans who wanted to protest, knowing she’s not liked. It was only a few weeks ago someone said they’d strangle her on radio. Would you really be up for meeting fans?

Clearly someone hasn’t defended SISU and that’s upset you for some reason. I’ll leave it there.

Can I just check, the protest outside SISU's offices was it actually at their offices (not sure where they are) or at the registered address on companies house which is 96 Kensington High Street.

Just that the Kensington High Street address seems to be the location of an office services company that has a large number of companies registered there so unlikely to be SISU's actual office location.

Damage limitation Tony. What are your thoughts on the clapping of Wasps representatives at the Ricoh compared to the SEESSOO OUT chants in London ?

Poor show if true. Someone should explain that one as there’s no justification for any CCFC fan to applaud anyone from Wasps. I’m very much of the opinion of regardless what anyone else is doing Wasps are honoured bound to accommodate CCFC and I don’t buy any nonsense about time limits on selling to wasps not damaging CCFC from the council either.

Fans chanting sisu out at any opportunity? They’ve earned it. Not sure why any fan would have an issue with that.

Fair play. Can’t disagree with any of that.

I will add though, that the SISU OUT message is a bit muddy and mixed now given we need them to negotiate with other parties for our future. Let’s face it, SISU OUT should be ‘the long game’ not the immediate message, because we know they’re not going anywhere unless an ‘substantial’ (a figure only known to them) is deemed acceptable. And it appears Hoffman isn’t going to cut it.

Apologies CJ I thought we were talking about David Johnson, sorry I was in full on rant mode.

Duggins claims to be a city fan, strange way of showing it

Caught a bit of coverage on some news bulletin yesterday and thought Moz came across well, there's a danger with this kind of thing that people can come across as ranty rather than passionate but he was more considered and to the point, so they picked the right man to front it.

Joy Seppala knew we were coming. I am 100% sure of that.

It’s laughable you think she’d talk to a group who make no attempt to stop outright abuse, are affiliated to someone who said “the witch is dead”, and there may be someone in attendance who said he “wanted to strangle the bitch”

Not even considering the fact you as a group are blatantly trying to get a takeover in place fronted by her nemesis and being in collusion with the other parties in this mess.

Over two years ago our owners reappointed Mark Robins and have backed him and have done a lot of good things and things are going in the right direction.

Forget the errors they made in the early days, thats all behind us.

There are a lot of worse owners out there.

SISU in.

Can you clarify. Its clear things were pre-arranged with the council and Wasps. Was the same done with SISU, were they formally informed and a request made for someone to meet with Trust representatives or was it just turn up and hope for the best?

Also did the protest go to SISU's actual offices or the address registered on companies house which appears to be an office services address showing a large number of companies.

Interesting, one of the Trust Board Members who was there is saying that people should be on Wasps side.....



Amazing what people let out when they get going ;)
