On talking about the academy kids who have made the step up.
"The new set-up next season will be like the old Pontins reserve league and the opportunity for the lads to make their mistakes and develop, rather than using the first team as their development squad,” he explained.
“They...
Few questions. Maybe should be asked at the fans forum.
1. Are we still under one?
2. If so, when are we likely to get out of it?
3. If we are still under the embargo at what point in time do we receive further penalties for not submitting our accounts? There must be a point in time whereby...
Already been linked on here on another thread, but I do believe this deserves its own thread.
If true there are some interesting facts in here.

a) Pat them on the back and say well done?
or
b) Be a grumpy bastard like me and say 'why couldn't you have coughed up a bit of cash last year when we really really needed it, especially bearing in mind that though we had no money last year, we will now this season we...
Never been so excited about a film since god knows when.
Not out til 1st of June but all the talk is about booking now!!
Anyone else with the same degree of anticipation?
But has everyone considered that these kids who were not ready for the Championship (at least for many, many games back to back and constant inclusion) may also not be ready for League One?
Seems to me that there is going to be even more onus on them next season than there has been this...
If Stevenage play against us the way they are playing this evening and there are other teams in League One who play in this manner this then it's going to be one long, painful season for us I fear.

One fan's view
Villa Park, 2001. As the Sky Blues found themselves suffering relegation for the first time since 1958, a lone figure stood defiant. Visibly anguished, his message was a simple but powerful one: "We'll be back". This iconic image became a symbol of hope for the Sky Blue Army...
Despite ending their season at the Ricoh Arena with disappointing defeats against Millwall and Doncaster Rovers to confirm relegation to League One, Coventry City ended the 2011/12 campaign with just one point less from their home games than in the previous season.
2010/11 saw the Sky Blues win...
And found it amazing to see how little had changed in terms of the teams down there in the lower leagues and League One in particular.

If it's true and he has been asked to stay on as manager then I am not sure there is too much point continuing the Thorn debate is there?
I'm sure everyone has had their say. Would be very easy for me to continue to criticise Thorn, but I pretty much stopped a while ago because it seemed to...
Not convinced AT will do that, but I can't see we have anything to lose in doing so. At least give 2 or 3 a bit of a run out.
Looks certain that Willis will play in place of Keogh.
Would be nice to see some fresh blood at some point in the game.
If I wasn't feeling glum enough coming out of the ground before he came out and said League One will be much tougher than the Championship and we would need to invest very heavily to survive.
League Two looms if that is the case.
The thread is about whether the players today will be doing a lap of honour after the game and whether or not the fans should stay to watch it.
As a answer to the question should the players be doing a lap of honor, Edgy has replied;
'The players should sit in the stands & clap whilst the...
Just looked at the League One table and with Notts County in the play-off positions and Walsall just hovering outside the bottom 3, there is the potential that we could be the only Midland club in League One if/when we go down.
Has that ever happened before that the City have played in any...
