mixed thoughts really.... so in no particular order I think the SBA do us proud at away games - great support for the team I also think at times Block 15 do us proud too - but of late seem to be a little quieter. However that area is far more vocal than any other area at the Ricoh. There is...

The feel I am getting is that the Board are allowing the club to find its own level financially and playing wise. That is why they are keeping a distance, that is why they are so stubborn in terms of player matters. They know we are heading for rock bottom, have accepted it and are planning for...

Would you offer him a new contract ? In my mind he just makes up the numbers and has been a passenger (like one or two others) this season. He has lost his pace, seemingly lost his passion Saturday first half more often than not he stood around while the Saints passed around him (not a bad...

First off disappointed - we have no right to expect to beat Doncaster, but from the reports from friends who went and from listening to the radio we were never going to win. Yes we had a few chances but it seemed to be against the run of play - certainly the goal was. You could sense that a...

Thought I would take a stab at summarising where we might be this current financial year to 31st May 2012 and what it will mean for that financial year It is a guess so I am happy for folk to put their own slant on the figures Income Look at the games played so far and total attendance is...

Just wondered with all the comments regarding other strikers why Jeffers doesnt get even a place on the bench ? Scored two yesterday for reserve team How many goals has he scored for the reserves this season? Is he a better option than ROD ? Is he an option we should consider? If he isnt why...

couple of things i came across Covmad site Clingan offered a contract extension 2 months ago and not replied Crainie and McSheffery both offered extensions AT this week got his Level2 coaching badge (he has managed the team but no more qualified than me :whistle:- experience aside - in what...

Just for info the Football League Rules regarding ownership can be found here http://www.football-league.co.uk/regulations/20110629/section-9-association-dual-interests_2293633_2125750 and http://www.football-league.co.uk/regulations/20110629/appendix-4_2293633_2128219 Clause 94 of...

AT keeps coming out with comments like "we are a young side" "the young lads have a lot to learn" etc. It seems to me that he tends to towards youthful inexperience being one of the main problems with our performances. Undoubtedly there is truth in that. However a more important factor in my...

Thoughts on Barnsley Match To be honest there isnt a lot that was positive I think that Thomas Cameron and Christie acquitted themselves well. Thomas ran miles especially in the first half closing down players and putting pressure on the ball (whilst more experienced players stood and...

It was interesting to read that the Coventry City Ladies team are top of the Ladies premier division Even better that they got there by beating Villa http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/14966343.stm

Why is football as a business model different to normal practice?. What is so different about it that makes any normal business model go out of the window - where owners make decisions they wouldnt normally? What makes it so different that its customers believe it is their right to demand that...

Hopefully people will find this useful. Tried to keep factual but is always going to be an interpretation of things/opinion and there will be things seen differently by others or missed by me/us. Would be first to hold my hands up to say I/we dont know it all Will try to keep short as possible...

I read this on CovMad about our new starlet Bigirigamana........ Eastwood could learn from him http://www.coventrycity-mad.co.uk/news/tmnw/bigirimanas_long_road_to_success_699146/index.shtml Sounds like a decent lad with real desire and commitment. Wish him lots of success

Got lots to catch up on I am sure but would be grateful if someone could give me a bullet point update of whats been going on in the last 10 days. Went away on 26th with Hoffman bidding, no players to be sold and LeFondre being chased. Seems to have all changed! Thanks OSB

Saw this on covmad http://www.coventrycity-mad.co.uk/news/tmnw/give_your_shares_to_supporters_brody_696872/index.shtml understand the sentiment and firmly believe that the fans should have shares in the club going forward. Think the timing is wrong, right now GH & backers is making a bid...

There is an interesting BBC report on the cost of watching football. It seems in terms of CCFC the cost is about mid table - only hope the team is by the end of the season!! http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/14366574.stm

Has been a fairly uninspiring day so I thought I would end on something i found inspiring and strangely it was last nights TOP GEAR - not a program know for that quality. They did an article about a rally team - these guys were looking to make it into the Dakar Rally which is widely regarded...

OK I think I must be missing something in the KD chat, CT reports, the GH proposal etc. All have talked about owning half the stadium as making a difference but how ? The stadium is owned by ACL Group which is split 50:50 between Higgs Trust and Council. CCFC has option to purchase the Higgs...
