Because intellectuals said so, and when were they ever wrong?

Ref the trust as they like to claim to be democratic surely this could be so easily resolved - have a vote! Do the members want to support a boycott or not? If not then fine, but if the majority want to continue the boycott then so be it.
Either way the membership speaks rather than 12 self appointeds (still think its crazy they have 12 board members - more than the FA!)
Are they democratic or not? put up or shut up trust!
Great to see the standard of response from the trust is as eloquent as ever - mattyccfc etc - prime example of what exactly is wrong with the trust! Agree with them you are top bloke dare to criticise you are a dickhead! And they expect tp be taken seriously to be owners of the club without putting in a single penny!

The evidence is already out there about which messages allow everybody to get behind them...

Ok - I apologise- I did misread your thoughts.....but I'm not sure how it is that the position we find ourselves in given the stance adopted by both parties cannot be devisive- how would you suggests that the trust can establish unity for all against this backdrop of circumstance?

Really?- sorry not sure as you can conclude that- How can 2 positions so far apart suggest unity can be found- of course its what we all want.
If you were lead in the SBT what central message would you deliver to unite- what would your campaign manifesto strap line be?
Im not looking for a fight here- just genuinely want to know- if we can find the middle ground in the fanbase- perhaps that is the spark to unite the respective parties?

All this bickering is just pissing most of us off. Have you all noticed the declining numbers on here? Either go to Northampton or don't.

I think most fans would agree that being a supporter is having an interest or a passion, no matter how great or small, for your club. There are no rights or wrongs, just support. We are meant to be Sky Blues Army - armies are a united front. It only takes a small minority to disrupt it and bring it down, and that's what's been happening. Where it goes wrong is in the arrogance that your decision should be the only one. We are free willed and individually strong minded - not ONE city fan should ever be told what to do, otherwise we're breeding a generation of pussies. Go to games, don't go to games, support Sisu, hate Sisu, think Pressley should have a proper shave, don't think Pressley should have a proper shave - as long as you care about matters at the club you are a true supporter, just please don't think you're the best supporter or the only supporter, you're part of a strong army.

I think they do know what they are doing, a picket line is a show of aggression and would make things 100% worse and further divide the fan base.

Please excuse me for for underlining part of your quote, but I can't help thinking you've just unwittingly come up with the answer.
Let's those that go to Sixfields do what they want to do and everyone else support Coventry United in the St Mary's Hospice Midland Division 2

For anyone who missed it. Simon Hart, writing in Thursday's Independent "Sunday's attendance of 1,789 was the lowest league gate in the club's history - a pretty stark message to the club's unpopular owners Sisu."
It throws a little more weight behind the argument that the massive boycott of Sixfields will work. Is working.
Carry on boycotting City fans. Don't be misled by those who try and say we're not together. I'd say a 90%+ boycott is pretty united.

To be honest, it's much more united than I would ever have thought possible.

If CCFC ever cease to exist and regrettably this is a very real possibility with the course chosen by the owners.. then I may well elect to follow CUFC.. until that time and I hope it never happens then I will continue to follow CCFC like I have for all these years- albeit not to Northampton

I don't think it's a discussion about whether or not people should or shouldn't go - there are ENOUGH threads about that and to be honest - it's fucking boring now. This is about fans turning on fans - I agree with the original poster, it's not right. Like I said in my earlier post, if people bow down to peer pressure off other fans and choose to do something because it's dictated to them, what have you done to this next generation of supporters? Let people make their own choices - neither argument is proven to be right, so lose the arrogance and respect people's decisions, even if they don't corrospond to yours.

Agree ... but its early days. Once the stadium plan is off the ground then CCFC is over for me.

Why? The club would have its own ground, which they didn't before.

There's a difference between fans turning on fans and debating your side of the argument to try and change a persons mind.
Once threats and calling names comes into play it becomes wrong.
On the point of view of being boring I do agree, but fans need something to feel part of during this low moment in CCFC history.

I find this odd, I think I've only seen you say it. Why would it be over for you?

It won't be really will it? Originally you were done the second we kicked off in Northampton, then if it's still the case by whatever time, then the goalposts moving again. Your penchant from dramatic statements loses the impact when you keep changing the criteria.

Thanks SpionKop I hadnt seen that- good read.
Made a thread as I think it warrants the opportunity for more of us to read it?

Putting aside the fact that the stadium will be owned by SISU not CCFC.
It's 2 things .... Firstly it's acceptance that we are a lower league team based on standard of stadium expected, probably also a bit of snobbery after looking at the history of the club and the stadium we had.
Secondly it's the timescale involved and the implications of fair play rules based on a crowd of 6000 for 3/5 years. Where will we be ? What debt will we have and how many existing and upcoming fans will be loose.

It's based on at what point the SISU plan actually switches on. At the moment we are in limbo with no real idea of where this will go.
Earlier I saw moving to Northampton as the start of that plan and obviously at the time you need to flex your muscles in a hope of preventing the move.
Flexibility I call it but the new stadium at the moment is not a plan
