    Someone with a vision. The same vision we want. We always say in Robins we trust .... lets hope we can also go in King we trust.

    I'm 78 years old and have supported City for over 60 years now.
    This is the most promising owner and Mark Robbins is the most promising manager since the heady 60s of Jimmy Hill and Derrick Robbins. INMO.

    I’m impressed with his attitude and forward thinking, think we have a good chairman and hopefully we will reap the benefits.

    This guy is, I think, actually interested in football! Which is a cataclysmic leap from a bunch of hedge-funders from the Cayman Isle! I like his attitude towards Mark Robbins, the players we have and his realistic vision of where City are at the moment! I think he is quite an astute businessman who wants to push the club forward and upwards! With SISU shoved clearly into the background, I think maybe its time for fans with bitter memories to once again believe that Coventry City can go places! PUSB#

    I think people need to back off and give King a chance and stop trying to be profilers....can you imagine the pressure he's probably under and he's only been the owner a cpl of weeks and more than likely not been under public scrutiny like he is now ...as he said he's more stealth....give credit where it due ...he's done an interview personally within 3 weeks of taking over which is more than can be said with Joy Sepala ...she sent Fisher instead....let Mr King get his feet under the table properly before making judgements or pre judgements ...
    If we manage to get our prized assets on longer term contracts then to me that a great plus for a start ...

    Did I hear that first few seconds right ?? My partners at sisu ?? As much as I love this guy and I believe in this guy, I still think sisu members are still at this football club ffs, doug is good friends with sepalla, if some of you didn't already notice, joy sepalla was actually at the leicester game when we won 3-1 at home a month or so ago, she was also at the wolves game today too sitting 2 seats away from his misses 👍 is that witch still involved or what

    • @Bhodisatvas
      @Bhodisatvas 4 วันที่ผ่านมา

      He shares investments with SISU so they are 'business partners' and I believe Doug King is friends with Sepalla's husband? Personally I don't give a monkeys if Joy and Timmy show up at a game or two, King has proven he is taking the club places and look at how much he has invested in the club.
      Yes, pinch yourself because you are not dreaming, for the first time in decades we have an owner that is serious about turning the club into a household name again.

      @@ollierichings4044 "We have a very rich and good owner", it sounds like you know the guy... saying we're debt free means nothing and I wouldn't be surprised if that debt is recouped by selling someone in the future, the club needs actual investment in the team, the training ground, a stadium, until then, it's just words.
