From Coventry City Mad - from Rob Summerfield.
And still it goes on. He said this, they promised that. Well, it seems to me nobody is interested any more. We can wait until our children are tired and squabbling over toys if we want to hear this kind of thing.
The fact is, a club who welcome an investigation into their fiscal activities, are incapable or unwilling to submit financial accounts in the required legal time frame. They have left our own ground and will play "Home" games 35 miles away when it was always possible to stay at the Ricoh.
They are preaching openess and yet their head honcho is seen less than a hermit on an extra bad shyness day. They employ, sorry, we've been paying for a Chief Executive whose idea of democracy is to take not one blind bit of notice for a ever more deafening clamour for change. The official club websites and pages are little more than a SISU propaganda unit. On Saturday there was a pitch invasion during the first half at Crawley. At half-time they noted there was to be three minutes of time for "Stoppages". Like it was the usual injuries when it was in fact due to supporters of a football club reacting, albeit in the wrong fashion, to having their hearts ripped out.
So Mr Fisher, I would rather you concentrate less on statements. More on the shocking state of a once proud football club you have turned into the laughing stock of football. You employ star lawyers and are yet sending young footballing lambs out to slaughter on the pitch. You are the most despised owners in football history yet you still remain.
Many are asking why. Many are coming up that something here is very wrong. So today, you offer to show your hand while keeping your cards covered. Dream on in your London based ivory towers. You have committed deeds that the people of Coventry will never forgive you for. This is the most important damning statement of all.
