If you disagree dont get involved, if you dont like their statement then dont read it, but for fekks sake as they are a group that is currently in the news and involved in the campaign to oust our current owners, then surely the press are likely to ask them for their thoughts, (rather than asking each individual fan) and so they release a statement.
SOC claim to represent the Fans. If the majority of fans disagree with them, or their methods (as seems to be the case on here), then they need to stop what they are doing as they are misleading everyone.
If SOC wish to be a fans group then it should be a clear definition that they are only 100 strong. The majority of the other 14,000 regular attendees are not represented by SOC. Like I said before if SOC really were working for all fans, the statement could've been put on here and GMK for a vote on whether it should be published or not.
I'm confused tbh as a city fan that wants SISU out does this make me part of SOC? I don't attend the meetings, is this what limits membership? If I attend the meetings but disagree with everything they say does this make me part of SOC? I JUST DONT KNOW????
moff....so you support the SOC while at the same time you don't? And everyone should be grateful they exist?
I employ a hobbit to work my computer for me. Where do I stand?
This means you've surely conducted a rigorous hobbit employment system so you should breeze through this kind of stuff.
Nick - we were each asked by various media outlets and individuals what we and/or SOC thought about the news in the Telegraph - so how would you like us to respond?
Cannot see anywhere in the statement where we are demanding they ask our permission? Yes we have asked for a bit of clarification about both sides intentions - wseems fair enough or don't you care about what each side has to offer or intends to do with the club. Would they care about SOC - well both sides have been talking to us so I guess they must hold us in some regard. Does either side give a toss about the fans? Would be nice to think that Hoff does but no harm in asking him is there? As for the help business - I myself doubt if there is anything we can do to practically help the process but there is no harm in offering if it might help resolve the current situation.
I really fail to see your problem with the group trying to show a degree of organisation and professionalism? Will you be objecting to the fact we have an agenda for the forthcoming meeting - should we just say turn up and well just have a general natter about things?
I sort of see where you are coming from, maybe the formality of the way it is being run would put off the average fan from attending meetings etc.Like I said, I agree it is good that somebody is doing something BUT the way (maybe not meant) that statement comes across it might put even more fans off. (Coventry fans are the most cynical anyway)
Whilst everyone is entitled to opinions I think this is stupid.
For the last 6 months we have had a majority of people saying "Where are the sky blue trust they are useless, they couldn't even organise the buying of a pie."
Now we have a group of people who are trying to do something and we have some fans criticising there efforts saying they hold themselves of too high importance and other bullshit. Basically if nobody was trying to do anything most fans would be saying "why doesn't someone try to to do something" or "where are the sky blue trust"
You are damned if you do and damned if you don't with CCFC fans. I think many people had this vision of SOC just being a couple of hundred fans, smashing windows at SISU HQ and setting flares of etc.
Only on a Coventry board could such a thread exist.
Oh and Steve stop trolling about the megaphone to say you are getting boring and repetitive is an understatement.

Well they can't post a poll here every time they wish to do everything can they, it would be impractical.The issue comes with the claim that they are a voice of the fans. Well I'm sorry but I did not give my opinion on that statement. I was not consulted and I am a fan who talks to the chair of this group on a regular basis through this web site. A thread asking do you agree or not, posted on this site for 1 day with a poll would've stopped any uproar here.
And these are the sort of comments I was referring to in my first post."What a bunch of plebs"
I don't think I'm being taken seriously about the megaphone. Just because CCFC got so emotional about my request I thought I'd mention it again. Ps for those who don't know or who haven't seen the old megaphone in action I'm just having a laugh
All the best
