    What are we protesting about ?

    The sale to Wasps is a "done deal" - too late to protest about that. We can voice our anger (if we have any about the sale) but that's it. There is very llittle we can protest about until this whole saga settles and we know what's happening re the Higgs shares. Frustrating, but until SISU...

    Court of Appeal

    Is that to-day ? (10th October). I understand that SISU's application to question the Judge's verdict is today. What do SISU hope to obtain from this now CCC has sold it's share in ACL (including Wasps taking over the £14 million loan).

    Intrigue

    I keep asking myself why SISU didn't step in. Why did SISU stay quiet. This is exactly the opposite to what SISU have done in the past. Why didn't they threaten CCC with legal action (if they had grounds) for selling it's shares ? I just feel there is more going on here than meets the eye ...

    CCFC reponse to Ricoh affair

    How on earth can SISU expect the Council to have anything to do with them, let alone talk to them, whilst threats of legal action are still ongoing ? I think the Court of Appeal date against the JR decision is on Friday ? I understand SISU may still be considering legal action against...

    Labour group votes to approve £19.5m Ricoh sale to Wasps

    I have absolutely no sympathy for SISU.. they apear to have well and truly shot themselves and their plans in the foot. Karma ? RE CCFC, I cannot see the Council agreeing to this sale unless it includes some contingency plan to accommodate CCFC in one form or another. Me thinks that maybe...

    Joy Seppala: “We will not interfere with any deal between Wasps and ACL re: Ricoh"

    Would you believe a word she says ? Even in Court her credibility was questioned by the Judge ?

    Phase 2: Operation SISU Out

    A boycott is wrong. However, we stil need to ensure CCFC remains at the Ricoh. The current arrangement only papers over the cracks and is temporary only (max 4 years). It is important we ensure CCFC remains for the long term and that means either a) SISU buying the Ricoh b) SISU selling CCFC...

    The New Stadium

    I was one of the missing 16,000. Why ? Living 36 miles away, being an OAP in his 70's, be buggered if I'm going to get caught up in the ticket chaos and wait up to 90 minutes with the chance of getting a ticket. Sort it out and I'll be back pronto. I bet there were a couple of thousand or...

    The 1960's feeling....

    Note to SISU. Jimmy Hill recognized the importance of including the supporters and making them feeling wanted, needed and excited. The Sky Blue express, kid's parties and more. He wanted them to feel it was their club and knew how important it was to get the supporters feel part of the...

    The 1960's feeling....

    Back in the 1960's a guy named Jimmy Hill came to Coventry.. what hapened next was that the crowds starting coming back and it was the "feel good" feeling returning to what had been a miserable few years (apart from promotion from Div 4 ) that created the impetus and launch of a tremendous next...

    28,000 divided by 1,500 equals ?...

    18.6 games at sixfields ! So in one match virtually the entire total of one season's attendance at sixfields has been reached !

    We have started well

    Already 5 points more than last season. We would have been minus 5 still last season after 4 games ... too early to judge table and form yet, need another 10 games or so.

    Swindon

    Living 22 miles from Swindon and 70 miles from Sixfields I went to a couple of games at Swindon last season. Good organized team, good manager in Mark Cooper. Didn't rate Michael Smith. Ground easy to get to - ample parking outside the ground £10 if you want to walk just a few yards to your...

    Court of Appeal

    Even if SISU "WIN" it doesn't mean ACL will have to re-pay the £14million loan, so I really can't understand what SISU hop to gain from this ? The very worst is that the European lot rap the Counci's knuckles !

    Court of Appeal

    Let's not forget SISU have applied to the Court of Appeal and are still intending to reverse the High Court's decision. In the unlikely event that they are successful - fantastic. But what happen's if they are ? They now have 4 years to continue persuing their claim. Still concerened as to...

    What's the point?

    Let's be honest -- SISU won't go, no matter what. So why don't we get rid of SISU by supporting the Pheonix club ? OK, we are losing CCFC in the process but is it worth the sacrifice to rid football of SISU ?

    Bobby Gould wants to meet Joy

    You must be joking ? He bought a lot of unkowns and formed them into an effective Division 1 (Premiership now) capable of performing at the highest level. Bad manager ? No way. As a player he was dominant, so much so Arsenal bought him us.
