    That's the key point - tell everyone about it and they will want to come to the game. It's about building that momentum so that it becomes a habit to go up to the game. The fans have to be won back.

    Alternatives

    I don't believe anyone is closing off any options, we can all see change is required - what this change is and who will offer that change is the key question. The purpose of the change is to improve the position of the club both financially (for the investors) and league position (for the fans)...

    Next 3 games

    I've seen a few comments about Pressley being a number 2 (assistant!). I have seen/read nothing that gives me any confidence that he could even do this role. Publicly, I am not aware of any other club looking to poach him, so he his not enhancing whatever reputation he has and is actually...

    The future

    Better still, perhaps they should do some market surveys and ask their potential customer base.

    Fleck; The new Kevin Thornton

    I expect he will leave as soon as he can. It must be hell playing in this environment the club has created, it's hell being a fan of CCFC but unfortunately we've nowhere to go

    It's time to distress SISU as owners and let the club go under and start afresh

    That's the issue. What would any new buyer want to spend to buy the club - definitely now what SISU will want. Due to the debt level, its not worth a new buyer taking that on and paying SISU a £1 for the club! Consequently, I am expecting the worst - SISU continue to load the club with debt and...

    He has lost the dressing room

    I did wonder that myself - he got a red card and that's the last we've seen of him :thinking about:

    WilSon and clarke

    You could look at it that the midfield don't have the confidence to put the balls in as there is no pace and no one really able to hold the ball. Hence a lot of tippy-tappy and trying to walk the ball into the net.

    RFU Will Rubber Stamp Wasps Move According To The Times

    Wasps attracted 6,374 to their home game against Northampton Saints at Adams Park, Wycombe last month. The Ricoh Arena has a capacity of 32,000. “You are competing against Northampton, Leicester and Worcester,” Fitzgerald said. “It seems completely bonkers.” Apart from all the other moral &...

    RFU Will Rubber Stamp Wasps Move According To The Times

    There could be some merit in that approach. The difficulty I have is that if SISU is willing to pay say 50%, that would be £15m, then they could have offered that in the first place. We all speculated that they would need to spend £20-30m on their little ground that they are planning to build...

    Paul Ince is he deluded or does he have a point?

    Do we know the statistics of how many qualified coaches there are to test this? How many are black, white, brown, pink, yellow - whatever! how many women? which leagues in the pyramid are they working in? what successes have they had? Everyone must agree that they want the best person for the...

    Get Cov Back to the Ricoh response to Wasps Ricoh Takeover

    Both your assumption and premise are incorrect. Best not to assume.

    Get Cov Back to the Ricoh response to Wasps Ricoh Takeover

    Not sure what the issue is - its just business. SISU took business decisions (albeit rather ridiculous) when they went off to Sixfields. They have and have had every opportunity to invest in the stadium but declined to do so. Not even a one-step at a time approach. If Wasps really want to...

    How many of our fans are based in Coventry?

    Would be great to put this all on a map - myself over the last 25 years from leaving Cov -> Surrey -> Sweden -> Philippines -> Surrey :)

    Closing South Stand now

    That would have been nice, but probably cost them more. However, you can create the same by just opening the rows from the bottom up. That way you get all the fans together and the atmosphere. I really don't understand the closing of certain blocks and the concern over visiting fans is completed...
