Good idea but would their clubs/agents allow this?

Don't see why not if its not controversial. Maddison was at the opening of the new indoor pitch and there's some footage of him talking fondly of the club, would be no different to that.

Yeah, would just have to be along the lines of "This club gave me the opportunity to become who I am, thousands depend on it, we can't let them disappear no matter what"

It's completely different. Intentionally or not, by using their video entry in what is effectively a plea campaign amidst a legal battle they're effectively putting their name onto said plea campaign. Maybe I'm being sceptical but I'm just not sure whether they'd be allowed or want to do that.

Would that be a fan of Wasps who play in a third full ground with increasing debt and losses?
Also. has anyone heard a single one of our fans ever say its all Wasps fault?

To put pressure on CC a message should be centred around 2021 and the European City of Sport bid and how Coventry City either folding or being moved elsewhere contradicts the integrity/legitimacy of these accolades.

Help Needed.
I'm trying to find as many quotes as possible of people involved in all parties (w**ps/sisu/CCC).
I want quotes that either diminish them, are for the cause or where they haven't stuck to their original word.
I want, The Quote, The Person Who Quoted It, The Year it was Quoted.
These are what I've come up with so far.
"Wasps remain committed to building a long-term and mutually productive relationship with CCFC and its supporters."
Nick Eastwood w**ps Cheif Exec 2014
"We are delighted to see Coventry City Football Club back at the Ricoh Arena and this is where we want them to remain. We are keen to make this work for everyone."
W**ps club statement - 2014
"It is important to us to make clear that we see the Ricoh Arena as the home of Coventry City FC and are committed to it staying that way."
W**ps club statement - 2014
"Today behind closed doors with the people of Coventry not even knowing the details of how much or details of what’s going to whom a decision has been taken to steal the arena that was built by the people of Coventry’s money. It is a disgrace."
Ex Local MP Dave Nellist - 2014
"If anyone doubts a stadium will be built, they haven’t had engagements with me over the course of the last two years."
Joy Seppalla - 2016
Can anybody help with more.
Also, Joy Division. Could you help with putting them in to shirt format like you did with the Ann Lucas quote? I'm thinking w**ps shirts with land rover type sponsor writing on, and all the others maybe a different, noticable/prominent CCFC style kit? No worries if you don't have time or can't be arsed, just say either way and I'll see if I can find anybody else.
I'm also looking for football related quotes (not necessarily ccfc related) like the bobby Robinson "football is more than just bricks and CEOs" quote.
Thanks in advance.

Comments like that make you want us to start disrupting their games - fuck them. If we go to the wall we should make sure their fans have the most unpleasant time possible.

Tbf, it's not the actual proper fans from London who are the cuntish fans. It's the ones from Coventry who think they have the moral high ground because they now "support" w**ps and their doing us a favour allowing us to play there, we don't bring them any money, they can live without the £100k a year we give them etc etc.
As shown by this guys handle. Alcovwasp. I'd say his name is al, he's from Cov and he's a c**t that waves flags when he's given free tickets from the school.

Exactly, if there was a way to just target those types I'd piss them off all day. There are genuine fans who aren't dicks about things and just want to go and watch the team they have supported for years play.

Just like our fans are then in this scenario - make the London fuckers collateral damage.
There are actually Coventry fans that support these people, those people are a disgrace to the city, bet they were up in arms about the Northampton move

It was a quote from a piece about the vote for the Ricoh sale (which was in 2014)
Am I right in thinking he's the old Labour MP with the dreadful teeth?
If so, what I'm saying is right. He (was a) local MP and he was speaking on an issue in 2014. Just because he isn't still an MP.
Does that mean I can't quote Ann Lucas as Council Leader when she was talking as Council Leader?

I don’t, want us to just moan about the football.. but we’re going down the pan shortly and the tossers who own a stadium with CCFC plastered all over it are having a field day at our demise.I don't want our games disrupted either
Stopping short of hoping for someone to blow the fucker up whilst their shit house fans are in it

I doubt he was talking about the Ricoh 14 years before it was built.
Not having a go, accuracy matters if you want people to take you seriously.

TBH I’d find a better person to quote. Should be people directly responsible at the moment. The Lucas one is perfect, and the Eastwood ones. More like that.

I just thought this was a good quote to run with as... well.... It's true. If i can find enough "better" quotes by more desirable sources then I'll drop it but stuck with only 4 quotes atm so need the material as it were.

Yup. The led by donkeys twitter account goes for verifiable primary sources for quotes before releasing anything... and that's very important, not just in a credibility sense, but also so as not to get sued!
(Get Les Reid on the council quotes, he'd l;ove that. Get Gilbert to find the SISU ones, and job's a good'un)

You could ask them to meet you too help out, both in the same place at the same time. Then just stand back and see if they have a scrap.

I honestly think the Lucas one is all you need.
I know you’re doing a thing with the rotating board thing, but for me that one is hard to top. Clear, obvious, and most importantly related to the one organisation of the three that should respond to public pressure.
Not sure who else there would be. Anything from Mutton? He was always good to shoot his mouth off.

But I think people need reminding the promises w**ps have made and broken also.
I agree the council need to respond, but ultimately the only 2 parties that can change our situation are SISU and w**ps. Either one needs pressuring into dropping the legal (unlikely) or the other needs to remember they are new to the city, and made numerous promises to us, and that because so far they've gotten off lightly, we won't forgive them killing us off.
I think these quotes need to be flooded across social media with @ and # w**ps all over it. They think their so good at PR, let's put a dent in it I say.
Get w**ps rugby Twitter trending..... for all the wrong reasons. Somebody at the top will soon tale notice then.

Naked walking down the Ricoh steps while we all shout shame while somebody rings a bell.
I do think people need to know they can't get away with any old shit.
