That's the hard bit, finding something they all agree on which is pro CCFC. Some might see shouting SISU out as being pro CCFC for example, some won't.

Nobody disagrees on that we want fantastic new owners to come in and live happily ever after, people disagree on methods and ways to achieve it. Have a look through some of the threads on here where they are bicker free, it is things like posts about olden day players, the ones like the legacy fund where everybody agrees.

Nobody is ever going to agree on the tactics / who should play and who shouldn't but that's football.

If the fans start to unite, the fans will start to feel a bit better and leading on from that any party in it all will get a bit more worried than before.

The place was like a morgue on Tuesday we tried for over 10 minutes to get the crowd singing and get behind the team, no one could be bothered.
And before you say anything they were not Sisu out chants

Quite strange though Nick that yet again you single out the telegraph because they make things up, spin and twist etc yet you are nowhere near as vocal at Sisu when they make things up, spin, twist refuse to tell us what the hell they are doing with the club. You see, we all read your posts about everyone's main focus should be CCFC yet the only organisation in all this that has a full responsibility to CCFC is our owners and yet after all they have done (along with other parties) you choose not to get stuck into them like you do with others. I just think that if you love CCFC like you say you do then surely your anger would be towards those who have a direct responsibility to us and not other like CCC and CT are only interested in headlines and votes.

Yes, but then when you look at it how many are up hanging off sisu's every word and promoting their shit for them? SISU aren't giving it the Telegraph spin of loving the club, we know they are pricks and couldn't give a shit. People say SISU out and it means people hang off their every word, take a look back and it's obvious.

I'd be quite happy for the Telegraph and the council to get some financial whizz in to go onto the stock market and tear SISU an absolute new arsehole. What I don't like is how the telegraph would outright refuse to mention the good things that do come from the club and jump on and off bandwagons for their own benefit.

Nobody at all is hoodwinked by SISU apart from maybe RFC, is it safe to say that when other parties pushing their agendas crank it up? Have a look at the SISU type threads, people just shrug their shoulders and agree. I point out that Gilbert is out of order for using the Legacy Fund stuff to promote his book and it's like a bomb going off. Have a look at how Joe Elliott is a legend because he is on a video with a fan saying SISU out, he was one who wanted to close the academy before and drove around taking shares for SISU to come here.

 

[Nick]

I know where your coming from but they were doing those things well before sisu came here.
My lad used to go to the football academies during the summer holidays, used to get free tickets for the football team used to be proud of wearing his City kit had a season ticket with his 3 friends, I used to take them all every week none of them go now and at 21 they should be up there every week.
TBF he is still proud to wear his shirt around Manchester where he is at Uni, just can't be bothered to go to games even though I am paying.

I know and that's my point, some of the people doing the hard work were here before SISU and will be here after they go hopefully. It is nothing to do with SISU that good stuff like that happens, it is in spite of SISU being here. It's not about congratulating SISU, it's about congratulating people like the ticket office lady who signs up on here to sort out a ticketing issue somebody had or the volunteers who give up their matchdays to help kids colour in.

If as fans we could make even a quarter of the noise about these people rather than hating others (that includes me by the way) then people might get a bit more excited about CCFC, they might see the good work. It is shit like that that (in my opinion) would unite the fans a little bit.

That's not saying people should ignore SISU or anybody else it is more try to see there are actual decent things going on at CCFC.

Like Tony say's Nick, Is it through choice or ignorance you act the way you do on this site, or even arrogance?

You see you say things like you did above when people have a pop at Sisu, or when we hear that witch puppets are being made of Joy and now you call it boring etc but do you ever shut the fuck up at having a go at the CT at every possible opportunity (even at least 4/5 times on this thread when it's not even about them). You see that is fucking boring yet it doesn't stop you or the other muppets playing the 'wet biscuit game' except you change the biscuit for a copy of the telegraph I bet. People are well within their rights to say what the fuck they like about Sisu or Joy because they are also to blame in our fortunes. Strangely you never say things against the arguments when people are slating CCC, or CT or Ann Lucas or Higgs but you're all over any thread that dares to have a pop at Sisu or anything relating to them. The funny thing is you mock others and talk of agenda's but do you ever stop and think it's starting to look like you have one too. I actually think it's arrogance and you'll probably come back with yet more questions without addressing what I've said.

I agree The Gentleman , but I think we're flogging a dead horse .

I tried in Thread ( Terrible decision from Venus #86 )

The one where you were going on about Mowbray being an excellent manager and he couldn't do anything so nobody could make a difference? You are right, you are flogging a dead horse.

Get your Facts right , I didn't say Mowbray was an Excellent manager , I said Experienced Manager.

Twisting things again Nick , why don't you read the post Correctly or are you BLINKERED .

Sorry, I was going off memory. The point still stands, especially as we have seen somebody do better already.

Not sure why you keep putting things in caps and making them bold?

I hope you don't lose any sleep over me typing in bold , there's more important things going on in the WORLD
To worry about , night night sweet dreams .

Which way is that?

Just saw a good article on some Cov page on FB that was published in the Guardian about SFC dodging a bullet and CCFC taking it. Gilbert's book gets a mention and he's got a few quotes in.

Tried to copy and paste but as I'm on my phone, I can't. Nothing new but more publicity on our plight and how shit SISU are.

Interesting to see some of the 'revenue generating' ideas that some past board members had. Thank fook they're not here any longer.::

I think that is where we should be able to differentiate between CCFC and our owners. Sure the great work that is being done should be celebrated and acknowledged by all true fans but it is hard to see past the crap that sisu have put upon the club during their tenure.
I know a Leicester fan who says that there are rumblings that all is not well at LCFC in certain areas. Can you believe that when they are champions of England and progressing nicely in the Champions league? Now I am sure that the vast majority are walking around like a dog with two dicks but it shows the other side of the coin.

Chelsea came to town in 2009 and we sold out despite being on TV (7 years ago now)

Apart from that, I would suggest to sell out johnsons paint trophy regional final with 30k+ is very good going

and did the extra revenue get spent on improving playing staff back then it wouldn't now

I doubt it, but that's not the debate. Some talk about the fact that tens of thousands just on the bandwagon when a cup game comes to town.

Not quite true when West Ham came to the Ricoh this season

It wasn't quite West ham was it?

surely they were better than crewe ?

I keep seeing this bullshit but if any of the prem big teams play at a lower team they get a sellout.
Why is that do you wonder?
Or am I lying and it only happens at Coventry?

Is it because they have a good owner who has just got it wrong?

 

[shmmeee]

I didn't realise we sold him for a billion!

We did.

Unfortunately, 99% of it went on Michael Doyle's back pay.

thats just ruined my morning
*shudder
thinking aboutthat crewe game

seriously tho lads, this thread has turned to chaos , theres like 10 different arguments going on, impressive even, forthis forum

 

[skybluetony176]

I suspect we might even be past that point now. I guess we'll find out if we ever have a big cup game again.

At £5 a ticket, it was always going to be full.

Where is there any evidence she is a billionaire?

Her chum Brody is, to quote from several online articles, a ''multi-millionaire''. She's probably somewhere in the multi-millionaire bracket too, I imagine.
