    Blame

    Looking at the league table, we've drawn too many games this season (16). Only Walsall (17) have drawn more. As much as we have been crap all season nobody in the bottom half has lost fewer games than us - the problem is that we haven't won enough. If you convert half of those draws into wins...

    ***Relegation Thread***

    Similar scenario to Wolves last season - thought they were going to thrash us to win the league, then we drew 1-1. Actually put £5 on us to go down at 80-1 before that game as "relegation insurance"!

    Auditors query Coventry City FC as a going concern

    Apologies if this has already been posted (article is six days old), but just received an email from ACCA (I'm an accountant) and one of the main headlines was this link. Sad to see that we're being used as an accountancy case study, but at least a few more people will now be aware of our plight...

    16,000 where were you?

    Just logged on this morning expecting the biggest thread to be one of renewed optimism, FIFTH in the league for the first time since the Boothroyd days, back at the Ricoh, happy days, etc etc etc. Instead there is a 34 page thread of fans slagging each other off about who's a better fan than...

    Gillingham Match Thread - The Ricoh Return

    How dare you talk about the actual game itself as opposed to the mad rush for tickets!! Heart says 2-1, head says 1-2. Think the first goal is crucial here as the last thing we need is a large angry crowd on the back of young players.

    now another 150 for sale

    Probably to spread demand across the day. I think they'll sell them all eventually, barring a few hundred where there are single seats dotted between rows.

    now it really has sold out....

    There are a fair few single seats dotted about in block 22 - I can't go to the game but tried to get through out of curiosity. Took 10 minutes to get through and then seems to work fine.

    The Can't Go On Friday Thread

    My excuses: 1. Live in Sheffield and working until 6pm 2. Game finishes at 9:45ish - would struggle to get back to Sheffield before midnight 3. Game is on Sky 4. Rare occasion where demand > supply - therefore my non-attendance won't impact on revenues 5. We're generally shit in front of big...

    Wolves Match Thread

    Carlisle 1-0 down. If they AND Tranmere lose then we're safe regardless.

    Wolves Match Thread

    Unless Carlisle can turn around a 27 goal deficit in two games (one of which is at Wolves!)

    Could really do with Crawley equalising - that'd make things look a lot better

    City in weird places

    I saw eleven City shirts in the Democratic Republic of the Congo: In all seriousness this is one of my mate's charities, called Kits4Causes, where they receive old Premier League kits and distribute them to Sub-Saharan African kids who just want to play football. Think the shirt/shorts/socks...

    kcic @ Jimmy's Hill v sheff u - provisional ideas

    Apologies if this has already been suggested (cba to read through 26 pages of comments), but what about hoofing a load of footballs on the pitch with "SISU OUT" emblazoned across each ball? Should be easy to do from the top of the hill! 87 balls in the 87th minute, something like that. Every can...
