I still think the MK away date would be the perfect time to do it.

I agree!

It seems getting that through wouldn't go too well however. Far too many people would just want to support the lads / show us what we're missing etc.

Frankly it needed building up way before now for numbers however, even more so for that date as it'd need a big push as to why the protest was the preferred option. As ever, we're reactive rather than proactive.

But we're just a few sad idiots on an internet forum. The trust have the ear of the media. Why can't they do a single thing?

The views of the membership matter more than mine or anyone else on the board anyway. I would suggest (appreciate) that if you feel differently email your ideas and thoughts in. That’s the best way to make things happen.

I meant 'we' as a fanbase, not just here!

What’s wrong with that? No different to going to the Cricket World Cup a couple of months ago. If we get to the semis I’m planning on going too. Some of the board love Rugby and have season tickets at CRFC. Is that an issue? With regards to Wasps no one on the board have had any sort of relationship with them aside from meeting their officials like we have done with CCC, SISU, CCFC and the EFL.

It is not a cricket team holding the cards and putting ridiculous clauses on letting us play at the RA!
Love of Rugby is honestly a worry considering the above, however, season tickets at CRFC alleviates some of that worry.
One of the" meetings with officials" involved applauding the CEO of Wasps FFS!!!!
However, "HuckerbyDublinWhelan"s post is a good one and it is refreshing that you, as a board member of the trust feels that that is the case too. I really hope that you have an influence and can take that sentiment to the table.
Fair play to you engaging whilst away though. Have a good holiday mate and I really hope you can get the likes of what HDW has posted in front of the board and say that this is echoed by many!
Like I said, a real chance for the trust to be viewed in a better light by many!..... and if their desire is to get the club back in the city, then it is obvious what the next course of action should be....

Cheers CJ.

He'll be too busy organising a protest

The cov supporters club may have scored a massive own goal with this. But the sky blues trust have fully grown adult males associated with them that pretend to be other people on the internet to abuse people.

I know which one id rather be associated with.

Which?

Great the Telegraph quoted James Riikard one of the fruitcake City fans many guises who tried to report me for homophobia as I said his shirt clearly showed he is a Primark sort of guy.

 

[Broken Hearted Sky Blue]

But I'm a member and have never been asked my views. Invited to a pub back room 100 miles away yes but as I can't attend I don't matter.

Face it none of it matters

I’ve just started a supporters group

The popular coventry city supporters group. Currently just me in it and none of you lot are invited

Just because it’s what others and I on the Trust board want doesn’t mean we’re in the majority. The views of the membership matter more than mine or anyone else on the board anyway. I would suggest (appreciate) that if you feel differently email your ideas and thoughts in. That’s the best way to make things happen. [email protected]. Anyway I’ve got a swimming pool and the sun to enjoy. Signing out for now.

Could always keep it simple and start a thread on here for suggestions. Lololololololol

Come up with that joke yourself or copy off the dozens of similar ones on social media?

 

[jordan210]

Don't think this got posted

 

[Liquid Gold]

Easy W for the club if they make them let them in.

 

[Deleted member 5849]

Don't think this got posted

I assume the club has done this for Leamington & Warwick, and Bedworth...?

Interesting how Gilbert is in overdrive about ccfc stuff now. Must just be a co incidence.

Hadn’t heard anything about a protest that the Cov Supporters Club mention?

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Um think I was quoting a famous film lol

That is so bizarre - is it really news? Feels like a spoof

None of them mention football.
I actually checked Gilbert's Twitter feed yesterday and mentions of city were few and far between yet a bit of trust related friction and he's all over it.

Trying to cover his tracks now
Transparent as anything.

They won't do.

It comes just after the trust strangely reiterate their goals as well.

 

[chiefdave]

Bit of shame that far more people are outraged that Moz can't have a night down the pub than were bothered about our own fans being abused on social media.

Nothing worse than insular and anal football fans. The irony is most dont even understand the only game they choose to follow.

 

[Ricketts]

He could start/join the supporters club of Coventry

Edit: sorry, I see that joke has already been done

 

[Irish Sky Blue]

There has never been an anti-Wasps protest. The one at the end of last season was about trying to get them to give us a deal.

That’s not the way I remember it and I was there.

 

[Deleted member 5849]

Tbf it was anti everyone. Had you been anti SISU and pro Wasps you could have turned up.

Pretty daft place to hold it if it was pro Wasps mind. Something the supporters group had bafflingly not thought of in their initial statements!

Glad you clarified. Although I've met you, I was wondering if Emily was in fact you with a wig!
