You should be the one that is embarrassed for believing anything that comes out of Fishers mouth even if he has only given you half the answer.
And the evidence is there if you look for it?
Just because your to stupid or just blinded by TF don't expect me to find it for you.

then it would be HWY ARE WE BUYING LEAGUE 2 PLAYERS? ARE WE PREPARING FOR LEAGUE 2?

some fans just have to moan. never admit that its life and not everything goes to plan

I didn't moan when we signed stokes, I said I'd wait and see him play. Not surprisingly it was people getting angry saying he was a non league reject, probably cry if he was sold.

Common sense really.

I would like to know why Vince who was regular in the team had to go when Tudgay and Rickets remain at the club These players even then were never going to be more than on the. fringe and on the way down . I blame whoever was dealing with that side of things be it TM or MV. The Bigi incident the other week was clearly down to T M both to blame but the owner have not helped.

C Anderson seems to have been ignored in this debate,
the rumour doing the rounds earlier in the year was that he'd radically re-structured the win bonus criteria,
to look at the win ratio after xmas might indicate that rumour has some substance

The rumour was it was waggot, it was another juggy one.

We won a couple after it came out.

People throw shit out because it gets people angry, then if somebody questions it they just say "Why are you defending SISU".

But whats scary is they genuinely believe the stuff they day I think, I don't think they're doing it for the reaction. That's what's infuriating. But then again maybe they're just really good at winding me up ha

Yes the League we fell in when SISU decided to sell our top scorer at the time without a replacement, bye Juke, hello League One. Guess that was because of NOPM too? ;)

Sadly, some people still see us as if we have some sort of right to be top of the championship or in the premier league.

We are in league 1, I don't like it either but that's where we are.

Because of SISU, it won't hurt to admit that, it's not a punishment to say I know, it's just common fact. We are here because of them.

Yep, they listened and hired the fool Thorn :(

Didn't have much of an issue with juke going at the time, he didn't do much for the rest of that season.

Next season Nick you'll be saying we have no divine right to be in League 1 and be accepting of the fact we are in League 2

Depends, if Venus wins 4 games and everybody is shouting give him the job even though he is dog shit and then makes silly decisions and we go down then no.

The squad we have right now isn't relegation fodder, we also aren't amongst the lowest revenues like we were in the championship.

I just don't still see us as a premier league club and expect things to be done like we are.

"Sisu have allowed experienced players to leave, losing the backbone of the team, there is constant change of executives running the club, they say they are losing £500,000 a month yet identify the £100,000-a-month rent as the root of their problems," says John Mutton, Labour leader of the council. "If they cannot return Coventry City into a successful club, they should go now and let others pick up the pieces."

Tim Fisher, the latest chief executive hired in December by Sisu to try to salvage £30m lost since buying the club as a planned Premier League-returning investment in 2008, accepts that selling more seasoned players last summer – including the centre-half Ben Turner and midfielder Aron Gunarsson, both to Cardiff City – then having to overplay promising young players this season under Andy Thorn as manager has been self-defeating. The club lost £6m in the year to 31 May 2010, its most recently published accounts, and the accounts for 2011, statutorily due on 29 February, have still not been filed. This, explains Fisher, is because Sisu are pondering whether to continue funding the club as a going concern.

That is prompting anxiety not only among fans jaded by a decade of decline, but City's staff, who have seen the swingeing job cuts when clubs fall into administration, while players' wages are protected. Fisher sought to rally the staff after the 2-0 home defeat by Doncaster Rovers that consigned Coventry to relegation, and says he is striving to keep Sisu committed.

"My key role is to convince the owner to finance this asset," says Fisher, who is a banker specialising in financially "distressed" companies. "Coventry City is a fallen angel, a Premiership brand now in the third tier. The club has an incredibly loyal fan base and I am confident in telling the owners that if they continue to fund it, it will bounce back to the Championship."
