SISU are now claiming Coventry City Football Club were ‘Frogmarched’ out of Highfield Road
- the truth is CCFC sold HR despite not having a new ground to move to
- listen to the interview for yourself at http://tinyurl.com/npu84zg
- with SISU now openly reinventing history it’s time for a reality check and some plain speaking
- We could be back at the Ricoh tomorrow on the most recent rental offer which would be good for the team, good for the fans and better financially than playing at Northampton Town FC
- There is not a scrap of evidence to suggest the ‘new ground’ is anything but a smokescreen – a feasible site has not been identified, no land has been purchased, no planning application has been submitted, not even a serious discussion with a local council
- There seems to be only one rational explanation for SISU's actions - they want ownership of the Ricoh, and they want it on the cheap
- No realistic way forward is offered by those whose main interest is being pro/anti ACL/SISU, those who advocate the currently unachievable ‘AFC’ option and those who call for disrupting matches (what would Steven Pressley say to that!)
So KCIC will continue to
- be pro team and pro fans
- boycott Coventry City games at Northampton Town FC as without a shadow of a doubt the boycott has attracted most attention and support for our plight
- support football in Coventry by working with Coventry Sphinx, the senior team now playing in the City
- promote the epetition at www.FixFootball.co.uk to call to account all those responsible for the mess we are in
- shortly undertake a fan survey on what to do next season
And we’ll continue to call things just as we see them…
