One great thing with all this is I get a good game of match the username to twitter account.
I think nick's @skybluestalk
When I finished reading it, I wanted to punch the air and shout “Coventry City Council, London Wasps, Sky Blue Trust, Jimmy Hill Way, Coventry Telegraph, David Conn, Simon Gilbert and Stuart Linell ...your boys have taken one hell of a beating tonight”
Good point NW - which is why it is such a good article...and SISU.

Anti SISU cleansing complete
Thought there may be a few left that hate them but reading this thread , I must be last man standing. Go forward to St Andrews and spread the love. I would say that though wouldn’t I Nick. After all I’m a flag waving Wasps season ticket holder.

Don't disagree, just thought the Tiananmen square bit was unnecessary and a distraction from his overall argument.I'm not sure he was far too wrong on Linnell, his sneering patronising of callers who don't share his view is becoming embarrassing, and to work at what should be an impartial organisation he likes to ram his opinion down everyone's throat.
That the feeling around the club?Top man Les Reid
He's got plenty of bottle standing up for the fans in the face of the council and their cronies' constant use of CCFC supporters as pawns in their scheming
David Conn is a political animal, you only have to look at his Twitter account to see what he's all about
He obviously has an agenda against the club and it's fans
Of course SISU are a horrible bunch of greedy business people, just like Wasps' owners, whose main aim is to make money
But if the council is confident they've done nothing wrong why are they using Coventry fans - who they are supposed to represent - as cannon fodder rather than confidently defending their case at the EC when it eventually gets heard
Tbh most of our players are very young and the political aspect goes over their heads especially as a lot of them don't come from Coventry so don't know the history of what's led to thisThat the feeling around the club?
The thing is as more people wise up that its not entirely down to SISU they stand out more and more. They're posting a ridiculous number of tweets everyday going after anyone who says the council or wasps might have some of the blame.CW and John Stretton. They couldn't make it more obvious if they tried.
Yeah, IIRC he was pretty scathing of SISU until he had a meeting with Joy. Then did a 180 and got a lot of flack for being a turncoat (I dished some out myself, to be fair). There's a fair bit of skulduggery that has transpired re. the council since then. So while he may have had his head filled with Fisher's fantasies, there are probably a lot of truths in there too.I remember at the time the consensus opinion of Les wasn't very good. I think collectively we were wrong. At one point think he used to post on here occasionally (would love to see local journalists posting on here more regularly again personally). Have a lot of respect for him for sticking to his guns and following the story through despite the abuse he was (and still is) getting.

Indeed.Agreed, coupled with some idiot on Twitter yesterday described Robins statement as like something from Goebbels, The rhetoric is getting a bit hysterical.
Indeed.
I am guessing that Eastwood is Pol Pot and the council the KKK.

No mention of the fact Joy said she was never coming back and that Fisher constantly said that ship had sailed , and that plan A was to build a new ground, leaving what , they thought was a stadium no one else wanted , That's what Sisu gambled on, (and lost) , to be fair not even the wildest Sisu hater would have thought the council would have sold Coventry Citys home, to an out of town rugger club thus condemning the club long after Sisu had gone to a point of no returnFairly good summary that but again, why so long until it was/is in the public domain?

And Tim Fishers first statement on thr return was plan A is still to build our own ground....and then returned. To the tune of “a pathway to ownership” as the council led them on a merry little dance.

If there tried to be a bit subtle it would probably be more effective.
No, but I’m sure Simon Gilbert, David Conn, The Sky Blue Trust have pointed this all out.Indeed-he did bring people to task but didn’t really point the finger at Sisu’s/Fishers lies which I found a bit odd.

thought that myself, the owners continually trotting out the new ground line should have been questioned especially as it seem listening to Robins that they have given him assurances about it.
It had gone back to Plan B not so many weeks ago. Plan A was to stay at the Ricoh.thought that myself, the owners continually trotting out the new ground line should have been questioned especially as it seem listening to Robins that they have given him assurances about it.
But even if they have the financial resources and intentions to build a stadium, it doesn’t matter a jot unless the council (who, call me a cynic, but seem a little bit hostile to the club) will work with them.It had gone back to Plan B not so many weeks ago. Plan A was to stay at the Ricoh.
In fact the shifts from Plan A to Plan B of both are remarkably similar to last time, also.
