Yeah but at some point (assuming they don't have a billion or more going spare*) they won't have the money left to finance any more losses/rack up debt. Unless you're addicted even the worst gamblers know that they have to cut their losses at some point when they can't afford it anymore.It's got to the point now where it probably won't make a significant difference to their losses.
Consider this, because I've come to another conclusion to you:
All the people who chant 'We Want SISU Out!' At the games (which is only really Singer's Corner) all didn't go to games because they followed the campaign, and the attendance was left with apathetic fans (like myself), people who just go to watch football, and people who disapprove of SISU but don't sing about it, wouldn't it reinforce SISU's (wrong) views that the 'majority' of fans don't want them out?
If the RICOH had a hostile atmosphere towards SISU, that is a more effective protest than essentially not doing anything.
It's the opposition to the Coalition walking out of the Commons leaving only the Coalition to discuss policy, pass legislation etc.
You'll eventually find our which supporter fits into which camp at the first home game if SISU get their own way.
Every single attendee will be used as a point of proof in Timmy's propaganda machine. I hope every one that stays away eventually returns when this pantomime ceases
Why would Coventry City fans, many of whom have followed the club for decades, witnessing thin and thinner, NEED AN EXCUSE to stop supporting the club they have shown such loyalty to?
Most will do so with a heavy heart and you have little understanding of the nature of long term support if you fail to recognise this.
I put it down to age and a little naivety. The fact that so many vowing not to go are silver haired or hairless demonstrates opinions formed over the long term and not so fickle as to abandon their principled stance due to a cup run ,a special offer or a call to arms played through emotions and habit.Why would Coventry City fans, many of whom have followed the club for decades, witnessing thin and thinner, NEED AN EXCUSE to stop supporting the club they have shown such loyalty to?

That's my fear, it's also why I'm sceptical of these protesters, I don't think many will return and are using SISU as an excuse not to go
He has little understanding, period.
Or a horrendous case of I can't accept I have been wrong with my stance all along......
Are you insane? Or just on the wind up? People don't want an excuse not to go. They want a reasonable level of football, played in our own city, with honest and transparent owners with the best interests of the club at heart.
Many fans have been going for generations, and it's all about cheering on your local team, getting out if the house, meeting your friends or family and enjoying a game.
People want a reason not to go, and SISU are the unwitting conduit to enable them to do so? That's the most crass and ill considered point I've ever seen you offer in here, and there's been some competition.
The Taylor Tombola is throwing out some errant fare at the moment....

When Sisu go it will take a successful team to attain gates of 16k plus. There are many factors affecting this.

This is correct, we have an ageing fan base and have already lost the next generation to bigger clubs, it will take a sustained period of 'success' to build up the support again
Don't believe that for one second....Have not lost the fan base....
...just look at the clamour by the bandwagoners & jonny-cum-latelys for tickets for the Crewe JPT game....
To make myself absolutely crystal clear, I gave up my two season tickets last year because of the actions of SISU. If they leave I will again have two season tickets. It has hurt me to stay away, my cousin used to captain the side and I have supported and travelled to see my team from Cambridge and Hampshire.. but enough is enough. Sisu have one major difference when compared with other previous (bad) owners in that they do not even pretend to be interested in football. I would have gone back at Christmas if they had managed to keep DMG, but no commitment from them, so no money from me.
For me this is all about Sisu not about CCFC.
So when I said people use use SISU as an excuse (although I should rephrase to 'justification') not to gone ause they either can't be bothered or are fed up with the football side of things, am I wrong or right? To say I have little understanding would then be wrong would it to?
Not one person on this forum who said they don't go to games have blamed SISU for non-attendance. I'm a massive sceptic of people who say they no longer because of SISU, because for the majority of them, I just don't think they'll carry on going to games like they did before SISU. If I'm brutally honest, how are SISU worlds apart from their predecessors, I remember being told throughout my childhood that 'CCFC are skint', once, I got told 'we couldn't afford a cup of tea' (obviously a joke). And if I'm brutally honest, I don't really have too big an understanding on the pre-SISU era because I was too young to understand anything about the finances etc.
