'Keep the Faith' event 26 April? + other dates/events (2 Viewers)

Possible ‘Keep the Faith’ event? 26 April


A couple of people have suggested this idea

• Meet 3pm Saturday 26 April at the Jimmy Hill statue, bring a radio and listen to Wolves game (bring a ball for a kickabout in the car park?)
• Keep it simple and small-scale
• Just a way of marking on the day of our last ‘home’ fixture that we should be at the Ricoh not NTFC
• If you are interested please email keepcovincov@gmail.com so we can see if it's worth doing

Other event dates

• ePetition for an Independent Inquiry is at 18,600 so needs a push to get to 20k
• kcic t-shirts are selling really well at www.creativemidfielder.co.uk/shop.php?c=keep-coventry-in-coventry
• Paying in cash for kcic t-shirts is now possible – email keepcovincov@gmail.com for details
• The cash option includes a new design by kcic’s very own Paul Horne (see the pic above), plus hoody, long sleeve and polo shirts

Dates for handing out ePetition leaflets (or signing up if anyone has an Ipad) and kcic t-shirt sales/orders


Saturday 19 April: Stall in Coventry market
Saturday 3 May: Sheffield Utd away
Sunday 4 May: Help for Heroes game at the Ricoh
Monday 5 May: Stall at Earlsdon Festival, jointly with the Sky Blue Trust


Volunteers to help would be very welcome!

great stuff.

you spoke to the casino and former players association ?

perhaps they could send some former players along and do a "meet and greet" after the game in the casino to turn it into a bit more of an event ?

I've got a lot on over Easter so how about this for a plan...

We call it 'Keep the Faith' and to keep it dead simple say it's meeting 3pm at JH statue just to mark, on the occasion of the last 'home' game of the season, we should be at the Ricoh not NTFC
If people want to bring radios and stay to listen to the game, bring a ball for any kids to have a kickabout, or do anything else that's up to individuals to do
If anyone who has expressed interest (eg ccfcway, Covstu, skyblueliam ???) want to contact the Former players Assoc and casino that would be great but I just haven't got time
Scale - it would be great if thousands turned up but it really does only need a handful of people to be there to make a point (and only times there's been big numbers is for the march and events at matches so best to work on the basis of small numbers)
I'm happy to use kcic mailing list, FB, twitter etc to publicise the 26th and even put out a press release which I'd hope would get local coverage but with a full league programme that day, PL games and Liv v Chelsea the next day wider coverage will be difficult.
And kcic approach is always that if you do nothing then nothing changes, but if you try things at least you stand a chance and some things certainly have an impact way beyond what seemed likely eg Arsenal. So go for it!

Its a good idea, but I'll be on the hill. Hopefully with a couple of hundred more. IMO we need to cause issues there.

I'm not even sure now where all these different ideas for the wolves game started but we know everyone's not going to agree to do one thing so best to work with what people do want to do. If there are people protesting inside (wasn't there a facebook group planning that??), people on the hill and some people at the ricoh it all helps get the message across that we want to be in Cov not at NTFC

You're definitely in charge of pre match and H-T entertainment!
