We’re a championship football team. There’s always buyers idiots see the carrot of the premier league and it becomes a vanity projectNeeds a buyer though

If SISU do absolutely nothing it will make no sense whatsoever, this is what they've been waiting for. Also refuse to believe any sane thinking owner would want the insects back in the CBS. Believe lads, whatever happens it will be better.

Hypothetical question
Say we get shafted and stay as tenants with sisu in control
Could you carry on? Because tbh i would find it very very difficult dragging myself up there knowing we were going to be constantly skint, never a cat in hells chance of making the prem and knowing we will never ever get rid of them bastards who control us
Not much evidence for thatWe’re a championship football team. There’s always buyers idiots see the carrot of the premier league and it becomes a vanity project
In Ashley we trust!Not much evidence for that
No, true.. but if they cash in for a decent amount now then maybe some of those bizarre decisions start to make a little more sense.Their actions up to now haven't made a lot of sense.

There will be people who go now who have never known the club have any other owners.Can't believe we've had Sisu for 14 years. Feels like 50 and 2 at the same time.
- Ashley just tried to buy Derby, who were then boughtNot much evidence for that
Do people only go if they think we will get to the prem one day?
I'm trying to find the words to explain it better
We will never compete for top 6 in this league with SISU. We will probably become a yoyo L1 Championship side like Rotherham and Peterborough
Is that something you can sensibly say to yourself 'Yea that's worth it', in a time where our money doesn't go far and other things become so expensive.
same as others on here, this is the chance to finally unite the stadium with the club either under SISU or new owners for both.
IF we remain in the same position as we are now, after what SISU have waited out for for years has finally happened, what is the point?
I get what he’s saying, he’s not asking for success. It’s the fact SISU Put a ceiling on us we know is there.If I wanted to support a team for guaranteed success I'd just switch between Man City or whoever is winning that year.
What about if we were a yoyo championship / Prem club like Fulham or Norwich with no chance of ever getting into Europe? Would people stop going then?
We could even save some money by keeping the same kit for them and just rename them as the Coventry Bees Netball team, at least they have links to a Coventry team, and it would sting wasps even more.About the only aspect of that that has even a remote chance of happening is rebranding the netball team.

if they go we can aspire to better no matter how impossible
Further to my earlier response, just checked agenda and papers for the October meeting. The Richardson loan application for £12.5m loan for a hotel is no longer on the relevant dashboard. So - application withdrawn or fell by the wayside.
They don’t have a ceiling - they can aspire to be the next Leicester. With SISU the issue is that they’ve told us for years “our model won’t work in the championship”That's what I mean, Norwich and Fulham also have the ceiling of being a yoyo Prem team. Would it be the same then?

we know Norwich and Fulham won’t likely be the next Leicester but at least there’s always that hope.
I don't necessarily go along with it, but i understand his point
You’re missing the point, 99% of seasons they will yo-yo, there’s that 1% chance they can do a Leicester. Their fans hang on to that hope.They do have the ceiling though?
It's no different to Rotherham just the league above.

with SISU our Owners have literally shut us down and told us - “that’s your lot and be happy with it, we cant afford to be here anyway”
theres No hope of progression, whereas Fulham and Norwich fans have that hope that one season they might win something serious
But this isn’t through the support of a ambitious owners.. Thats through absolute fluke from MR, AV and recruitment. You always have the feeling we’re only a couple of seasons away from potentially being back with the squad that won the FL trophy.That's the thing, have they said that or is that fans saying it?
There has been spells when we looked like we could get in the Championship Playoffs. I don't think it's going to happen but not ruling it out.

Planning permission can remain intact of a period of years, domestically I think you have to start something within 3 years. Will building start with no finance - I suspect not. There was also the press coverage about Wasps not having paid the lease money for the site, as it wasn’t going to proceed. It was a bit bizarre that wasps were going to pay for the lease but Richardson doing the building, unless taken as more evidence that the move to Coventry was less about the rugby and more about enrichment of individuals through property development.Thats only the financing application

Fisher said it at one of those meetings. Part of me thinks that league one promotion wasn’t part of the plan. Costs have gone up massivelyThat's the thing, have they said that or is that fans saying it?

I am sure the Norwich and Fulham fans say the same thing about being yo-yo clubs and wanting more.
Fisher openly said it a few years back. Our model doesn't work in the championship
Also since promotion I'm pretty sure they've shown that's the case
Sheaf - 750K
Gyok- £1M
Hamer- £1.2m
Walker - £1M
£4 Million spent in 3 seasons of Championship football
In that time selling
Hyam -£1.5m
Shipley -Nominal probably around £100k
Spending £2.4 Million in 3 seasons of championship football, when we've all backed the club with ST's record merchandise etc shows that this is financially it. Nothing else
No - front man at best. Or just registering a company name like used to happen with domain addresses with a view to a potential sell on of a shell company at some point.Interesting.
Potential buyer?
Fulham spent over 100m 3 years back, it’s not the fact they’re not breaking through, there’s the perception they’re trying to thoughSo why aren't Fulham and Norwich owners ambitious and ploughing big money in to get them to the higher ceiling?

And we can aspire to win promotion as Blackpool did.They don’t have a ceiling - they can aspire to be the next Leicester. With SISU the issue is that they’ve told us for years “our model won’t work in the championship”
