And we're stuck in the middle with SISU.
The Club Owners that, in one 35 mile move, have done more than any other to lose a generation of fans than any other get this accolade!!! I ****ing despair of the Football League. "Clowns to the left of me, jokers to the right."
But that comment in itself is misleading. Their tweet said:
@Coventry_City: #skyblues thank matchday staff & volunteers efforts in receiving @football_league Family Excellence Award... http://t.co/rZcfipMduk #pusb
The article was along the same lines; not necessarily for "how it treats it's fans". More so, how the fans attending the games feel they were treated (on matchday, not in general)
Only criticism may be that the facts behind the 'award' weren't explained, or known to fans.
There would be uproar if SISU won the 'worst football club owners in history' due to the fact they'd still be here. Just because they won it as apposed to what it's actual meaning was.
To be fair SW, the comment from the League was:
“The Football League Family Excellence Award gives clubs a standard to aspire to when planning their efforts to attract more families and young fans to their matches.
“It is hugely encouraging to see so many clubs receiving the accolade, demonstrating The Football League’s ongoing commitment to securing the next generation of fans.”
Our esteemed owners have done the very opposite of that.

Oh! Ok I hold my hands up then and say Apologise. Backing down as we speak
Fucking Hell. Can't believe this has reached 11 pages.
Who gives a shit?
It's like arguing over MacDonalds employee of the week. ..
Right.. the bottle is empty so it's time for bed..
The fans' fury was already there. Otherwise there would have been no article...

So now newspapers should not report news ........amazing
According to your version there would be no fury if the Telegraph had not reported it, as we would not have known
Of course there would, but it is cleverly stirring
The story and the reaction was newsworthy. Are you suggesting we shouldn't have reported it?

why dont you call it down the middle like les reid?
No, you can't judge the experience if you haven't been can you? It's like me trying to judge a lovely tasting cake competition without actually eating it.
I can't comment on how it is for families as I never took mine though.
The kids always seemed to love it though.
He knows where his bread is best buttered - council side up.
How do you work out anything that is reported that doesnt favour SISU is automatically in favour of the Council - dont recall any mention of the Council in the articleHe knows where his bread is best buttered - council side up.
Bwahhahaha!
Yeah! Bet there's secret meetings with Ann Lucas. Oh wait that's just you and Nickovitch.
Your talking rubbish Nick, how many families go to sixfields compared to those who went to the Ricoh?
Using your examples of cakes, if one type of cake sells 10,000 slices and the other sells 1000 slices. I don't need to taste them to know the one that sells 10 x less is a load of shite
Oh wait, you don't know who is meeting them do youmost people are staying quiet about it for some reason.
Plus must people haven't come back treating him like a savour like the trust did are they? Any secret trust meetings their paying members should know about?

So when did the Trust say he was a Savior did I miss that one?
Don't know many of the trust that have met him.
Sorry didn't mean the trust with ml
How do you know it tastes like shit? I bet mr Kipling sell loads more than a small bakery but the small bakery may taste a lot better. So people who judge cake competitions don't need to taste it?
I'm not questioning attendance differences or the actual quality, just that attendance is nothing to do with quality of the experience in this case.
Ahh but here you are comparing a large company to a small company, that is like comparing the match day experience of Man City to the match day experience of an Accrington Stanley, you could well argue here that the match day experience of the smaller club could be better than that of the big club. Here we are talking about Coventry at the Ricoh, compared to Coventry at Sixfields.
Think of it as a bakery's sells two types of cakes in his store, one sells 10,000 slices and the other sells 1000 slices. Again doesn't take a genius to figure out which one is better.

So is it the top class facilities, the incredible atmosphere or the the 35 mile journey which makes it such a pleasurable experience?
There is no doubting that the matchday experience has decreased significantly since previous seasons, the award is a farce and anyone who tries to defend the award is either deluded or just trying to play devil's advocate
My point was, you can't judge a cake flavour competition without tasting it can you? It may well be a cheap store and one is priced 1.99 and the other is 14.99 but tastes amazing. You still can't judge the taste of the cake without trying it, can you?
I don't know what it was judged on, if you read my posts you will see I can't see many reasons they would have got it.
