coventry city needs fans backing to stand any chance of promotion. (7 Viewers)
- Thread starter sylus
- Start date
They have invested money no doubt how much initially can be up for debate,, what cant be up for debate is the way they have and are running the club... They have been ill advised, made countless wrong decisions and overall showed a lack of understanding and respect towards the fan base... But this post could end up going over so much ground already walked on many times,,lastly the same people will defend and the same people will argue both sides of the coin..
My thoughts are, in the end SISU will prove to be the worst owners we have ever had,, they have taken us back decades and to roads that will be very hard to come back from..

If you (and many, many others don't support the club), how do you ever expect them to make big signings???????????????
Actually they are probably financially managing the Club better than the majority, who've previously invested HUGE sums of money we didn't have. That's what's put us where we are today!
The problem with all this money they've "invested" is that they haven't actually invested it in anything. All they've done is put money in to cover the losses. So for all the money that's been spent, what have they got to show for it? The club has no assets and a squad worth nothing.

Spot on the money.
They invested in covering the losses on the basis of a promotion to the premier league and then cash in. When that doesn't happen you are left with just having spunked your money on nothing. And let's call a spade a spade when the above happened as it indeed did the only viable way of getting their spunked money back was moving the team out of the Ricoh and buying it at a low price and then that failed. We bloody never win anything do we.

If we could have only positive posts we would have fuck all to post about most of the time.

This whole topic was discussed at length in a 20 odd page thread the other day.
Some of you may not have noticed, but we have an important game tomorrow. Bore off.

How about spend a bit of the cash they have creamed off by selling anyone who could demand a fee (no matter what size) then add a little of the savings that not owning a football ground must afford and actually buying a player or players that makes people want to pay to watch them...A little radical me thinks

My view is almost exactly the same....
Coventry needs to win promotion to have any chance of fans backing.

How much have they put in?
Your opinion has always has been the same on the owners, which is what i said in the original post,same people will never change, you have your opinion i have mine.. In my view these are and will be the worst owner the club as ever had and when the tenure is over and it will new owners will blow the lid on how poorly it has been ran.. All this talk of on the field issues stem from off field decision's,, no club can be maintain success on the field if off the field has no plan,, same the other way round..
Lay the foundations to succeed off the field, then work within the peramitures on it,,,are Sisu doing this?? if so the question is when do you think this fantastically ran club will see the benefits on the pitch?

I'd say more than taken out? How much have they actually taken by the way?

Maybe if we get promoted the tickets will be too expensive or the ricoh is hard to get to.

Surely that's the answer to what do they know about football?

But they know a football is round. They just struggle with the rest of it.

No to your statement which you are now swerving to address.

Well actually you made the original accusation - do you have any evidence or wish to retract?
Ah maybe that's where they have gone wrong , the Lawyers told them Its spherical.

I think that you will find that I made an observation on someone else's assertion if you care to check. It matters not though, we are in Division 3.
