Really no need for some of the stuff that's being chucked at fellow City fans on here today. Isn't this supposed to be the season of goodwill to all men etc etc?!
Michael, I used to label you as a bit crazy and I apologise. Some of the posts on this thread are mental.

The worst thing is, people can't even see it.....

I am actually in shock. That's terrible.

I am not a fan of Wasps - never have been. Have I been a rugby fan - yes, been to see CRFC several times over the years. Have I been a fan of CCFC - surprisingly yes since the age of 8. I am not saying its fine for Wasps to move I am saying its not my fight - thats between them, their fans and the RFU - if they are OK with it then thats their business. Sorry Nick but it is all ultimately about SISU - they are the root cause of it all. They could and should have bought the Ricoh when they had the chance but decided on a different tact and it has backfired - am I happy with that - no because it is a long term disaster for the club I love. They will skulk off one day, hopefully sooner rather than later, but us fans will still be here but with what wreck of a club left to support.

Sorry jan, while you are peddling your wasps propaganda and calling other people sad and selfish for supporting their team 3 miles away while you support somebody elses 80 odd miles away and not caring I can't really see what's going on in your head or where you are comIng from.

The worst bit is you can't see what you are saying.

I really can start to see why sisu refuse to speak to the trust with crap like this. You are quite clearly only open to sisu hate, you are actively justifying another team moving just because there are more fans in that area, and saying fuck their fans. Then calling others selfish.

Agreed - these people should just resign their positions today -- they are acting against the football club not for it.

I don't really care about the level of respect Wasps have shown their fans - thats between them and their fans - I do care about CCFC. You don't oppose moving to Nuneaton even if it might kill another team and its not in Coventry? Sad and selfish.
If my comments shame the Trust then report me to them, oppose me in the elections, come to meetings and make your point to other members.

Read that post again jan, it really is shocking :( I'm not sure if you are actually being serious or not?

Can you explain why others will be selfish? Reminds me of the sixfield days does that, but it's ok as long as you can watch top class rugby for a team you don't even support? Yet others are the selfish ones.

None of you answered my question before so I'll ask again did any of you give a toss when Wasps,London Irishetc were moved before? Where was your moral indignation then? When people last season said why not go and watch Cov how many of you said you didn't give a toss about Cov its a different sport,now all of a sudden you're concerned brilliant.

I'll answer your question if nobody else then.

In life majority of people are selfish now, its unfortunate but a fact. People only care when it concerns them directly

There is SISU and then there is CCFC..............they are not united in anything but ownership, I'll fight day and night for my team but not for the incompetents that have reduced us to this debacle.
Nobody on here is fighting for sisu, there are plenty fighting for wasps though. Two members of our fans trust board by the Looks of it.

That gets over.looked.

Surely, he didn't mean to put that? "You don't oppose moving to Nuneaton even if it might kill another team and its not in Coventry? Sad and Selfish". This from someone who has been to see a "fantastic sporting occasion". Which is, let me remind him, a rugby team from London coming to Coventry. And, I may be wrong here, but don't Coventry already have a rugby team in the city? Sad and selfish springs to mind...

People keep saying sisu try to discredit the trust, I can only think joy has hacked his account and is posting.

Now now, can this stay on topic of city fans being selfish for supporting their own team?

I know one thing - I wouldn't say I enjoyed a game of franchised rugby better than the team I support . There is no election is there, 99% of members don't care and now we know why. The "board" are more interesting in promoting London rugby teams at the Ricoh.

Its pathetic. You couldn't make it up.
