    Anyone pro City?

    For what its worth my opinion is that given the stance of SISU, which goes against everything I believe in, I am firmly of the view that CCFC through its owners are playing a game of brinkmanship which if it goes against them will possibly finish the club as we know it. If that is the case then...

    Tim Fisher on Shane Oconnor 15 02 13

    I can't fathom how anybody in their right minds can support the SISU stance in any way shape or form. Relegation and a downward spiral is a sporting possiblity that became probable due to the owners inexperience as in football and now they are using heavy handed tactics which WILL harm all...

    Time to act.

    couldn't agree more than Ernie Howe is not all that but he is a lot better than Mark Robins using your own measurement of his failure at Burnley and his success at B'mouth as they were beneath us when howe went back

    Time to act.

    if he wants to go, good riddance I say. If he is staying then he is only abiding by something he agreed to 6 short months ago.You would have thought he was SAF or something, he is no Eddie Howe and certainly is not worth crying over....

    Are QPR the new Portsmouth?

    With a super wealthy owner QPR are never going to be in a Portsmouth style situation until he decides he doesn't want to bankroll the club. Air Asia, LOTUS and QPR are just a few of his business interests and he is a winner. Fernandes is just trying to ensure they escape the drop. Think more...

    Best Amtosphere

    7000 were at Selhurst Park for that game. For pure adrenalin rushes the relegation escapes especially the one against Leicester in 69 with a last minute winner, Everton in 85 and Spurs in 97 were awesome, the low was the Villa and Charlton escapes in 92 and 08, I believe. Nothing though will top...

    Question for the older lot

    As an older supporter who reads this chat from afar it is a real eyeopener how vunerable most fans are to a real emotional pendulum, one defeat has become a disaster, one victory has become proof of our rebirth. Jimmy Hill's period was so good that looking back upon it is pointless, it can...

    £170,000 Ave Div 1 Rent?

    Totally irrelevant comparison, whatever the deal it was agreed to by sisu and although sisu are entitled to ask for a reduction, they have no right to withhold payments. More like we are living above our means and need a debt management company to negotiate on our behalf. This posturing may...

    A comparison - Swansea & Ospreys

    bilge Of course ACL have been pushed to the negotiating table, by a company that bought the club and agreed to abide by the conditions set. All of this was done after undergoing due diligence. It is not the fault of ACL that CCFC got relegated and it is laughable that you think it is ok for...

    CET: The deal turned down by sisu revealed

    does anybody really believe that acl are the problem here? they are protecting the interests of their charity against a company(sisu)who are reneging on their contracted obligations. they have in good faith offered a reduction in the rent, despite it not being in their best interests to do so...

    Talksport

    you are so right, the misplaced speculation on here is frightening, comments about suitcases of money taken by previous directors, prove it or shut up, its not helpful. acl are a charity, they are not there to subsidise ccfc and if we are in the shit is because of poor results on the pitch that...

    What the Ricoh has done for Coventry

    where does he say he was a great player, cretins like you play the blame game all the time, judgemental to the detriment of the facts..... it has turned out to be a bad move but the move was taken in good faith. Nobody is to blame and why on earth should David Bell or the club be blamed is...

    CCFC STATEMENT - and.... who the fook is Peter Ward? Bugger off

    Acl should absolutely play hard ball with CCFC they are abiding by the contract and any negotiation should be done with the contract being honoured. ACL did not get CCFC relegated and nor would thy be asking for an increase if we had got in to the premiership. It is therefore their ball to play...

    What the Ricoh has done for Coventry

    I wonder sometimes how the braiin of a football fan works..".david bell was offered the contract as he was considered the right man for job, a fee was paid or not, he got injured, he cant play, he can't get back to the level that he was at playing for Norwich. He is doing nothing wrong, nor is...

    Jimmy Hill the coventry years on film (get well soon JH)

    I was a young boy who got in to Football and the Sky Blues because of the success and good vibe Jimmy Hill generated around the city and what days they were, I wish the yonger post 87 fans could enjoy that feeling. I can remember the shock caused by his resignation. Who knows what would have...
