The Keep Cov In Cov Campaign Group and Get Back To The Ricoh Campaign Group have submitted the following proposal to the Sky Blue Trust ahead of their open meeting tomorrow night.
Joint kcic-@CovBackToRicoh proposal submitted for @TheSkyBlueTrust meeting Monday 4 Nov 7.30pm @ The Squirrel CV1 2GY. B there & hv ur say! Proposal to be put to the Sky Blue Trust Open Meeting on 4 November 2013 The Sky Blue Trust Board is asked to do the following. 1. Independent Inquiry. In order to apply pressure on all parties involved with Coventry City Football Club and call to account all those responsible for the mess we are in, kcic plans to ask the Department for Culture, Media and Sport Select Committee to undertake an Inquiry into CCFC (going back to the 1990s) to use as a case study of problems facing English football. This initiative will be based on lobbying members of the Select Committee and a large scale petition involving fans of other clubs. The Trust Board is asked to encourage Trust members to support and help with this initiative. 2. Large scale City centre event. To promote unity among Sky Blue fans, the Trust Board is asked to organise a large scale City centre event as a follow up to the fantastic summer march and rally. 3. Big screen showing in Coventry, of the away game at Bradford on 17 November which is on Sky. As another way of creating fan unity, the Board is asked to organise a big screen showing of the Bradford game to enable those not travelling to the game to watch it on tv in the company of fellow City supporters. 4. Application for the Ricoh Arena to be transferred as an asset of community value. The Trust Board is asked to confirm that it is submitting an application, as has happened at other clubs such as Man Utd and Derby, and the timescale for doing so. This will give notice to all parties that the Ricoh is more than just an object of potential commercial value and profit.Source: Coventry MAD
