I think 3000 is a fair number.
Also that Northampton's chairman said unless the league say no it is inevitable.
That's not what the chairman said that is what the presenter Nick Clithero said. The chairman said there was a long way to go. The crowd estimate came from interviewing 3 random coventrians in the city centre.
Nice money maker for them, don't blame them!
Just to clarify that's being funded thanks to £12million from the council.
The few hundred thousand from your tenure would help though.
Still think it's just a bargaining tool for you to stay at the Ricoh, I wouldn't panic just yet.
Very few of us actually thought it would reach this stage-unless ACL suddenly fold or SISU have some LSD induced epiphany then the concern is real.
It always has to reach a stage where the threat is real, for it to have any bargaining power.
Personally I expect half a dozen games elsewhere to make a statement, then a deal being struck.
High risk though, high risk, and the stakes aren't just the club buggering off for a few years, those stakes would be almost tolerable. This path is potentially far darker than that...
Good point however not always does the hostage make it out alive.
£12million from the council indeed, but still needs to be paid back...
If you want an angle, you might like to ask your board about the consequences to your own council loan, if our club wins its action against our council.
I'd assume each case is separate, but it's food for thought that our actions could take away indirectly far more than we give, directly.
Thankfully each case is different. Ours is quite complex but basically the sale of land will be repaying back the £12million loan and also earning us a bit more money into the bargain.

if I were ACL I'd wait It out.
The threat is real however.
And we might all lose, permanently.
That's not making a judgement on who's right or wrong, that's where we are.
Don't underestimate the threat, this is as far as I can see the exit strategy, and how the exit plays out could happen in all kinds of ways...
