Dear Tim In hindsight, do you regret grossly miscalculating by a huge margin, how many would travel to Sixfields ? I assume, being a successful business man you carried out proper research before arriving at your figures of 3,000 minimum and 7,000 maximum ? So, in hindsight, do you regret...

Just wondering if SISU (Otium) don't get their own way they would liquidate - resulting no more CCFC ?

1,100 is my guess - tops !

When I first started watching CCFC in 1952 footballers were paid the same wage as the ordinary working man - I had a pal living in Wren Street and can remember some of the first-team turning up on their bikes. As equals, they had the respect of the ordinary working man. Then look what...

In view of the Football Leagues "reluctance" in allowing Otium to groundshare with Northampton "because there was no other alternative" it is now time for pressure to be put on the Football League to request that Otium now justify it's continuation to play in Northampton in view of ACL's latest...

This is a question, it is not my opinion. Are supporters gradually now seeing the bigger picture on what has happened over the past 2 years and where the blame may be apportioned ? I say this because there now appears to be fewer " anti -SISU" threads on here and more threads now...

IN my opinion - nothing. They don't give a damn about us supporters. Will they note the potential ? No, they are blind.

Living in the Cotswolds I have a soft spot for two local teams -- Forest Green Rovers and Cheltenham Town. I used to travel the 34 miles to the Ricoh (where I did Hospitality), but there is NO WAY I will travel nearly 70 miles to Sixfields to watch CCFC (aged nearly 72). I decided to try...

Whilst struggling the get 1,500 - 2,000 Sky Blue supporters to travel to Sixfields - take a look at the 5,000 plus who are prepared to travel a further 20 miles to Milton Keynes, Otium. Not only that, look again at the numbers far in excess of 1,500 - 2,000 who are traveling to away games...

Just wondering what the ages are of some of the regular posters on SBT ? Just curious as some don't seem to grasp that at 72 and an OAP I am not as able as I would like to be now to go to away games. In my younger days, I went to every away game, even to Europe to support the Sky Blues in...

I'm approaching 72 years of age, having been ever-present at CCFC since 1952 until this season. I live 37 miles from the Ricoh and 51 miles from Sixfields. Even if Sixfields was filled to capacity (7,000) it means that still deprives another 8,000 plus from watching CCFC even if they wanted...

Playing the way we are - 15,000 - 18,000 at the Ricoh Playing the way we are 1,500 - 2,500 at Sixfields And you're a business man ? Don't make me, as a potential investor, laugh !

Estimated cost of a new 12,000 seater stadium - £25,000,000 - potential losses through playing at Sixfields - £10,000,000 plus. Total £35,000,000. Let's throw down the gauntlet to SISU and tell them to offer £30,000,000 for the Ricoh and benefit from financially in the future...

As a now retired successful business man, having run my own companies for over 30 years, I cannot for the life of me understand Sisu Capital's wish to continue throwing investors money down the pan when a possibly cheaper alternative would be to re-negotiate with ACL. As an investor in stocks...

I firmly believe we are being conned by SISI in trying to convince us that renting Sixfields is cheaper than renting the Ricoh for 3 - 5 years. I am challenging them now to proved the supporters with proof of this and publish a cash-flow forecast for the next 3 - 5 years, based on a Ricoh rent...

1. The Ricoh is sold to SISI Capital 2. Otium is sold to someone who is able to negotiate with Higgs/ACL/CCC Both unlikely, so do we just have to grin and bear it for 5 - 6 years ? Not for me NOPM !!! KCIC

Just my thought, but with Otium disassociating itself from Coventry City Football Club (Holding) Limited I am thinking SISU might be manouvering Otium into a position whereby it might be sold ? If so, bearing in mind Otium was viryally moribund until the purchase of CCFC Ltd, what are the...

I feel it is now more important than ever that the boycott of Sixfields is stepped up. The tide, in my opinion, is slowly turning -- the survey (for all it's crticism relating to KCIC/NOPM) is a barameter, plus nearly 3 times as many going to Port Vale than those going to Sixfields shows SISU...

In his comments to the Telegraph Appleton doesn't explain why the players are shown as assets in the accounts of CCFC Limited, yet claiming the contracts are in Holdings Ltd (according to him!). Little wonder this won't be made public ! Complete bullshit ?

Big day Thursday this week - Fisher announces plans of new stadium (ha ha, as if!) and Paul Appleton presents his findings (what's the betting he asks for more time?). Until then, keep up NOPM and KCIC pressure !
