A sniff of success ... (1 Viewer)

Some advice to SISU from someone who has supported CCFC since 1952.

You have seen at first hand that given a sniff of success, the support is there. You first saw it when we returned to the Ricoh from Northampton v Gillingham and again at Wembley last Sunday.

You must be extremely short sighted if you cannot see the potential and seize this opportunity to wipe the slate clean and start again from scratch by:

Dropping ridiculous plans to move to BPA
Drop all legal actions
Build bridges with Wasps
Hold constructive and meaningful talks to remain long term at the Ricoh ( Wasps will have noticed the potential to)
Have an investment policy that fits in with a long term vision ( not the live for today current policy)

If you can do all these things you might, just might, get the support behind you instead of the majority wanting you gone.

Unfortunately, I doubt for one minute you will take this advice, but I wish you would !

And start off by season tickets at say £150-£200.

Why? I thought the owners are the issue not price elasticity.

The name SISU is poison, they have shot their bolt here. The fans will never forgive them for what they have done. At least they will never be able to get their hands on any other club after this.

A great post thank you. Sums it all up for me as the basis for a stable future and the re-emergence of our club on the level it deserves. There is so much time wasting from sisu on all the wrong things which is all to do with ego, and nothing to do with football. Great to be there on Sunday though....to put it all on the back burner and enjoy a great day and great result...felt proud again to be a City supporter!

Correct! I won't be renewing but a realistic price and or gesture may entice a few. But of course there are the people that will go whatever and pay £500.

Trouble is Sisu are hellbent on destroying us,they won't walk away and let someone else run the club because they want their millions,and they won't get their millions because they have nothing to basically flog,so they stay put and run us into the ground instead.

if the fans turned up for games every week Fisher/Sisu might change tack. average attendances of 7/8k is L1/L2 level. thats probably our level. if we get momentum by winning games next year some of those day trippers at Wembley will return. see what happens next season.

It's going to take more than that - they need to follow my advice in my opening post to even have a chance of turning things round

It might look that way but I think it is more about Seppala preserving her reputation and making a profit on the ARVO venture (note not the SISU failed investment that Onye whatsisname was in charge of). I think she will want to get about £10M and a cut of the transfer potential going forward. The fact that the JR2 news has been quiet makes me slightly hopeful something might be happening behind the scenes.

Was anyone from sisu at the game other that tim it's not my fault fisher.

Depends who you are listening to, I've seen people on social media getting excited about anybody who is female and in the posh bit being Joy.

One of them said "She has finally been unmasked". 1. We know what she looks like. 2. It clearly isn't her.

Sisu need to go, they'll always be a drag on the club.

That said, that doesn't mean there's no room for improvement while Sisu are here.

1) Apologise to fans. Unreservedly, not blaming anyone else, no subtle calls for anything, just "We fucked up. Sorry. Please come back."
2) Keep ticket prices reasonable. They should be less than this year because they're offering a lower quality product. But nothing silly, price doesn't impact attendance really.
3) Show some ambition. Not "bounce back budget" or anything, but getting new contracts in front of those we want to keep and getting any signings in early should be enough. Wage budget needs to be top 6 really next season.
4) Publish a clear set of answers about the ground, academy and training situations that don't amount to "Can't someone else do it?"

This played over the tannoy it is then:

Was more hoping for a Fisher version of:

I have no sound, but if they play KWS and then this:



I hope its the right one, just guessing.

Silly logic. If they "run us into the ground" then they still won't get their millions, will they?

Are you insane?

You guessed lol

 

[sky blue john]

I would like to think Joy at least watched it on tv. The biggest question I would like to know did she feel anything maybe get a buzz from our win.

If you mean did she get an erection? then I would hazard a guess that she didn't, well not until she saw Fisher on the TV.

 

[stevefloyd]

I doubt very much she had a damp patch even
