A good start would be to spell Coventry correctly. You are only feeding them.
Well I disagree.
I think personally Wasps don't mind us being there as long as it is on their terms. I think stating that they want to destroy our club are way, way over the top, but that is by the by. I think stuff like that distracts us. I don't believe the council deliberately want to hurt us and by the same token I don't believe Sisu want to either.
We need to concentrate on how we progress this football club. We can't get rid of Wasps and we can't get rid of Sisu. Just think we need to focus on the positives that can aid us.
Is there a vote for this City of Culture thing?
Personally I wouldn't attend a Wasps game, even as a protest.
Perhaps a better idea would be to congregate around the Jimmy Hill statue before/during a Wasps game and hold some form of protest there whilst Wasps are playing?
Won
Great contribution. I'm sure you'll get to torchbearer status along with Armybike soon.
we should be doing that as a minimum. Its something over and above we need to do to get noticedWhat might be more effective would be to pack the Ricoh out the first home game of every month (& I mean sell - out!)... that way the funding mostly goes to benefit CCFC (ffp income at the very least) & who knows...maybe our owner start to believe us in the success on the pitch bring in the cash argument?
...onwards & upwards PUSB

I know that I am filled with rage about what is happening and I NEED to channel it into some form of protest. I sincerely hope that others feel the same and that rage will unite us.
To be fair, it would be a better idea to fill the local pubs with city fans. Make them sky blue as well.
I meant as well as, if people are going to wasps fill all the local pubs tooSorry Nick, but how is going down the pub with only the landlord and his dog as an audience, better than filling the Ricoh with cov fans for a rugby match? We need to stop fucking around arguing and blaming each other for having different views, the only people who aren't to blame are the fans. We've been well and truly screwed over by everyone, and we've sort of let it happen by not coming together.
A few drunken twats could confirm all the worst prejudices against football fans and end in embarrassment.
Trying to get people to get off their arses and turn up somewhere for a protest is an uphill struggle anyway.
Maybe fight fire with fire everybody support anyway you can Coventry rugby club instead of watching wasp let's support the local real Coventry rugby club and fly Coventry city fc banners
Any big protest would get the drunken twats though. It won't help, but think we have to accept that anything that winds up some passion risks some overdoing it.
This is indeed true! It's where we all hav to, really, make a commitment to go along if we can to whatever protest is decided on...
tbf, it's not an overly bad idea to all turn up to CRFC.
How about opening their ground while a Wasps game was on, and we filled it up even though the Rugby game was going on the other side of the city?
A packed house at the Butts with a united rugby and football fan base would not be a bad idea.
I was even thinking the performance bit is you pack the Butts out (as it were!) while a Wasps game is going on... even though there's no game going on at the Butts.
Nothing.
During Sixfields there were loads of protests including even in London so it's surely got to be a lot easier to do something in Cov now. But there were people who used to lead things. I said on the other protest thread that there must be loads of fans like me who want to do something and are just waiting for someone to get things going
Some got lots of criticism though and not everything was a roaring success.

I love this idea, I'm in.
But, who opens the ground? What do the police say?
I don't know, but it seems that Wasps have tons of browny points for sponsoring the bid and offering the Ricoh for events. Explains a lot of what is going on. We have no positive contribution as far as I know.

Id imagine every post of yours on here us greeted by wider and wider grins by Eastwood and Richardson.
Keep bending over for them.
Haha good point. Maybe we should learn from what worked and what didn't. So like the thing about the candidate in Holbrook's didn't seem to do much but Arsenal was awesome and there seemed to be a lot of pretty small gimmicky things that seemed to get in the papers and even on tv as well as the big events.Yeah, it was a definite case of less is more.
Three men and a dog turning up just looked like nobody was bothered.
