They tried it at Cardiff, but it didn't go down too well. I really don't think they would isolate the fans as we are not known for having loads of fans all over the place. Identity is one of our saleable assets, i would compromise and go with a yellow and black away kit, I would like to remain Sky Blues
Wasps owners = SISU
Both are hedge fund bastards, we don't need hedge funds involved in the club in any form, have SISU not shown that. Now some of you would sell our soul to be owned by another hedge fund. FFS
My dear I am not wrong. Look at the examples put on here by stupot and you will see quiet clearly the kit before the sky blue was introduced was all white with navy trim, neck and cuffs, that had been the case for Three years with a little change in year two.You're wrong Rupert. We were Royal Blue and White thick stripes, and were known as the Bantams. JH changes were minimal(Dark to Sky Blue) and never caused any uproar at that time, and was an innovation for the City of Coventry.
*Edit* Coventry wore Sky Blue at least 1 year before Man City ever did. So we should have "Bragging rights" to the "Sky Blues" name. We've never worn "Quarters" and White with blue trim was for 2 years.
The reason it didn't work at Cardiff(Colour change) is Cardiff fans have got bollocks, and stood up to the "Tan regime" Coventry fans could learn a lot from what Cardiff fans did.
There will only be a name change if ccfc fold, wrapped up, liquidated call it what you will, if that happens the name dies, a new club can be formed with some amendment to the name as Bournemouth did some years back. I don't know how different a name must be AFC Coventry City ? Coventry City 2016/17/18 a delema.We're talking about different things. A takeover by Wasps (which will not happen) is one thing; the complete rebranding and a name change as discussed here is another - all that would do is result in a breakaway phoenix club and it would get very messy and potentially makes things worse. Neither of these hypothetical situations has any chance of playing out for real so a pointless discussion really.
100% Sisu and stay as sky blues
1) sisu aren't going to be around forever
2) changing to yellow and black is huge step in refranchising, it wouldn't be long until our nickname would become wasps
3) sky blue is part of our tradition, brought in by Jimmy hill, we're called tje sky blues our club song is "play up sky blues"
4) getting taken over by wasps doesn't necessarily mean good times will roll. Rugby is their no. 1 priority and you can achieve a lot for significantly cheaper than football. Even wasos biggest fan Italia thinks they would just run us break even in league one if they took us over.
5) , yes things are shit now, but poor feel sorry for us. If we get bought by wasos and they change our kit completely to move in line with theirs, we'd become the laughing stock of football
6) tradition and identity is hugely important
I'd just about stomach it if wasps took over, but if they changed the kit and/or name, thats me done.

The only thing you are worried about is a change of location but you are happy for a change of name and image? Our club should and will not ever change it's
Thing is, if SISU stewardship of our club staggers on for too much longer, we will...name or image as the history of ccfc and all that goes with it will and has to stay as it has always been! Putting the council, wasps and sisu aside ccfc is our club and franchising it is a ridiculous statement in my opinion!

My steps and take them back.
Oh I Say"Vindictive drama queen.
Wouldn't be too bad atleast you'd fuck off and support somebody else.You'd have to be pretty stupid to want another hedge fund to take us over, especially one that had already moved one club 100 miles.

*Edit*... I may be boring, but I speak the truth...... It worked at Cardiff... Did it? or didn't it? A simple yes or no will suffice.
I'm still waiting prick... Yes or No?
