I'll be Fucked if someone ever stops me watching City.
This is the most stupidly thought out 'war mongering ' thing I have ever heard of.
Ensuring we have a team relegated and allow sisu to carry on running the Club at a lower cost than before.
IDIOTS
Haha yeah, we could stand outside and call fellow Fans scabsMeanwhile, we can all bicker over who does and doesn't go.
That'll keep the attention on SISU, eh.
That's a good point AND that is why it is important to bury your position in respect of UNITY.
Sadly it is the only way forward now ! They have to be driven out and the only way is to stop feeding them ! Only in football would punters keep coming back for such a shit product and get the piss taken out of them. With SISU here there is no hope at all, with them gone we can start again !
I am not a season ticket holder but I must say I would never ask a fellow fan to not watch their team be it in Northampton or at the Ricoh.
I understand you are saying it is for the common good but sadly it wont make a difference in any way. If we have learned any lessons along the way it should be that sisu march to the beat of their own drum.
Have a read through Bob's posts..Haha yeah, we could stand outside and call fellow Fans scabs
Rings a bell that one, wonder if op ever participated in that well thought out plan too
I'd rather not...Have a read through Bob's posts..
They either sell to someone with an offer or liquidate. The former still gives them sent chance of getting something out of their failed investment.
Do you honestly think that potential investors or buyers cannot see that we would still have a phenomenal fan base waiting in the wings to return once that the hedge fund have been starved out ? The silent majority have slowly lost hope and deserted the club, but with a decent, positive and caring new regime in charge, they would support their club. SISU only know about one thing, money and if they are having to use their own to fund the club then they will be forced to the table or to sell at a realistic price. All people want is transparency and a plan and knowledge that the owners are not using the club to try and profit from it, but to better it ! Not sure who these owners could be though or if anyone would be interested but if SISU keep saying we're not for sale, I doubt anyone will step forward.If crowds are really low next season it could play into sisu's hands. They can claim that it doesn't make business sense to renew the lease on the Ricoh.
The only way we are going to get rid of them is for them to sell. The way we can help that is by making us look an attractive prospect, increased attendances would be a factor in this.

I just want this latest court farce sorted and thrown out { I'd even be happy if they won it and fucked off }, but then I guess they will begin another action.
Don't need to read his posts, just his signature is enough.Have a read through Bob's posts..
Still, we can say sisu divide fans
Thing is, I'm convinced we're heading there anyway, so I'd rather deal with it now.Surely, "starving them out" could lead to liquidation. Is that the way some fans want to go? Not me.

But it's the lack of acknowledgement that this is what could happen that concerns me most. Life doesn't work where you just stamp your feet and get what you want (unfortunately, else I'd have a buxom blonde stunner on my arm in one of my five mansions about now!)
At least you've already got the mansions.

Trouble is we are slowly dying anyway ,a death of a thousand cuts.Myself and a friend and three more around us,won't be renewing next year, not particularly as a protest against SISU, but because it is no longer enjoyable at all,and the future is so unbelievably bleak.Well said.
I barely go nowadays, and that's as much because of the fact it ain't fun... to me. Obviously the less that go, the less budget there is for players and running the club. I'm comfortable that it's not my responsibility to increase that but... it's warped logic to assume that boycott = SISU pack up and go, leaving exactly what people boycotting want, in their wake.

But the alternative is madness as well. The direction of travel under SISU from the start has been just one way. Relegation now is looking distinctively likely. How much are we likely to get from selling players if we are in Division 2, probably a lot less than Division 1. Gates down to what 4/5 thousand maybe, they could be even less.But that's fine... well it's not fine, but you know what I mean! It's perfectly normal that if the team's shit then gates become shit, and if a team's good then gates become good - we're not really very different to other clubs there!
It's the idea of an orchestrated campaign getting a club packaged to our liking handed over that's utter, utter madness!
Very true !But the alternative is madness as well. The direction of travel under SISU from the start has been just one way. Relegation now is looking distinctively likely.

Another 2 or 3 years later,what then ,relegated out of the football league ? If people believe no one would be interested in our club now, why would they be interested in our club a few years down the line after a more years of decline. People are saying SISU will only go when they are ready to go, but by then there maybe no serious interest in us anyway. Every year they are making the CCFC brand worth less, not more.

I've had a season ticket every season since 1971, Northampton excepted. This is my club, I will never stop supporting it no matter what happens. However, I am nor sure I will renew my two STs next year. That is not because of the crap football. I am used to that. This may be the only way I can directly have an influence on Sisu. My £600 may be a drop in the ocean, but money, and having to fork out more of it is the only thing I think that they will take notice of. I understand the arguments that it will hurt. CCFC and not Sisu However, almost everyone agrees that we are in the middle of a slow, lingering death anyway. The arguments of many on here is that if Sisu go there is no one there to run the club. If Sisu go and there is no one else, then simply the club just dies more quickly than it does with Sisu.
of existence. I totally disagree with those who say it is better with Sisu as there is nobody else. With Sisu we are slowly dying.
Spot on !Well whether we decide to buy season tickets next season or not is not really the point as it's happening already. The fans are staying away more and more each season and next season the fan base will reduce again regardless. More of a drop of league 2 of course so bicker all we like but people have given up already. It's already happened.
Sisu can just cut again of course and cut again and this will then lead to conference football but we can keep blaming the fans if we like not turning up to be mugged off. Our loyalty is being pissed on by greedy hedge fund owners and many now have said no fuck this I'm not going anymore. That's just a fact. Some of those fans are on here. I'm close to that stage myself but not there yet but I want to jack it all in but find it really hard to not go.
What needs to happen is new owners with a plan, investment and ambition the 3 things we have none of currently and the fans will come back mark my words.
At the moment as it stands we have hit the iceberg and sadly there are not enough lifeboats.
The trust could only keep us going if they sold a player to cover the losses. Would fans be ok with this as they aren't with SISU doing it? SISU want us to be break even but we are still making losses before player sales. Other agencies? CCC? Keep dreaming. A club of our size? One FA cup win and the stat of being the least successful team in the country? How does that make us a big club? How does surviving by the skin of your teeth every year from relegation make us a big club? Potential? If there is a big team or a Wembley day out? Yeah you're right. Other than that, no way.
You have no proof someone will step in yet state there is an alternative, bit of a contradiction that.
