OK.

If you honestly believe 60% of fans want the club expelled from the league I can’t help you.

They don’t understand the potential implications of voting this way.

I think they've already threatened it haven't they, hence the meeting to discuss expulsion, the questionnaire is a hoped for get out clause for the league, who have very little chance of getting the required vote to expel. They are not going to expel us and will sanction a groundshare if needed regardless of the vote, they would just prefer the backing of the fanbase before it happens.

The poll has absolutely no consequence or relevance as there is no evidence at all that people completing it are even targets for the poll.

You'd better let the Telegraph know
Coventry City fans say they would rather see the club expelled from the English Football League than have their team play up to 50 miles away from the city.

SSNews says the poll finishes 6pm tomorrow (Friday).

They also report that 5 EFL clubs in the Midlands have said they're prepared to ground share with us!

Had a think about this and i initially voted for groundshare. Playing devils advocate people answering C on surface sounds like people dont care but I actually think its deeper than that. Of course people care. I think the results of C tells you that people think all of the options are complete tosh and that there's no reason that any of these need to happen or why we shouldnt be at the ricoh. Theres no answer D which would be that all parties need to grow up and sort out a deal full stop. I think it also says people are fed up to the back teeth with it all. Football is supposed to an entertainment and enjoyed. Its nothing but stressful supporting Cov. I think answering C shows how angry fans are and putting their middle finger up to say "do you're worst" By saying you are ok for a groundshare makes it easy for wasps, ccfc everyone else to stand their ground and just go ahead with letting a ground share happen and then say this is what the fans wanted (similar to the well heard line...the "people voted for Brexit" as though 100% of the country voted for it. Killing the club benefits nobody and I think voting C is the fans forcing parties into a corner by saying fans are NOT ok with this and your options are shit. Theres only one answer. Sort it out!

Good work, given the other clubs all the excuse they need to kick us out of the league.

We won't need to, Hoffman will buy the club and the deal is already done for the Ricoh

"Puts pressure on them to get something sorted"

"Means we have to share locally"

or some other bullshit excuse.

Disappointed not to have seen ground sorted, takeover completed or kicked out by EFL stories this morning. Considered it myself, but realise with it so sensitive at the minute that it might not be received well. Still all the same I'd have thought someone might have had a go.

I doubt people understood the question, it should have been explicit I.e “would you prefer ccfc to be expelled from the EFL”

Is it possible to run this survey on this site, hence restricted to registered users, with a clearer representation of the options?

The majority of votes came from Coventry or the surrounding areas. However when the London SC publicised it there was a spike from the South East. That’s a pretty good indication it was mostly City fans that did vote. I voted B and expected the majority to do the same. Quite surprised about the outcome.

Not surprised by the results. Personally I think the most telling statistic is the amount of people who responded to it, or not as the case clearly shows. Personally I chose to boycott it because I was never going to vote for A) the certain death of CCFC B) the almost certain death of CCFC or C) the certain death of CCFC. I think it’s clear that the majority of the fan base feels the same and chose to boycott rather than take part. The FL were clearly looking for an easy out on the ground share scenario and it’s backfired on them.

Most people voting for C are not fans but morons like Rich, Sydney Sky Blue,Captain Jack Griffin and cretins like Johnson and Nigel as well no doubt many on the trust Board

You keep bragging your the biggest fan group - do your own poll

I did not vote as all options were stupid, I even put that out on twitter. You are an arrogant rumour monger and shit stirrer which anyone sensible generally ignores.

Any of the votes come from Kensington?

The location of the votes proves nothing other than their location.

I can't believe that more than half the people who completed the survey would prefer us to be kicked out the league, than to play away from the ricoh!

Something stinks

I haven’t seen the analysis so I can’t say on that. It does indicate where people live and work. I’m not sure how we could’ve done it any better tbh.

Does this mean 41.33% of the fanbase would go and watch us at a groundshare. That would be more than some are predicting.

Irrelevant as it’s really only the handful who turn up to meetings along with that moron Johnson who influence the agenda - they don’t represent any supporters at all - only in their own deranged minds

I was just trying to find out what percentage of the vote was potentially trust members or whether not all trust members bothered to vote.

Did it allow multiple votes from the same device or IP address?
