    SP. No incoming transfers.

    In the same interview was the following .... "and James Maddison will be out, too. "He goes for a scan today on his back and we hope it's nothing serious. He's been extremely hard-worked this year - he participates in U18, U21 and senior football. We expect it's the culmination of a growth...

    Coventry City boss tells team not to get anxious when holding on to a lead

    not as simple as that really. We don't have a lot of pace so don't get beyond the lines very well. We don't support the front man with runs from the midfield or even picking up the knock downs very well. Our back four sits deep and the forwards press the opposition defence which in turn leaves a...

    Jamie Jones

    Hope the lad does well What was the point of giving Burge a contract in the summer though. SP clearly does not rate him, Allsop came in on loan and was first choice, this lad looks like he will start tomorrow. If I was Burge I would be thinking about a move to get proper playing time Can't...

    Coventry City boss tells team not to get anxious when holding on to a lead

    I know it is an easy game to mock some of the stuff coming out from SP right now but a long article on something so basic as defending properly for the whole game? Perhaps if we set out to win matches, had speed and goal threats higher up the pitch, gave the defence options to pass to and didn't...

    Something positive about the club for once

    Good to see that the club does get involved in such things and yes a positive news article. Should be applauded now if they could just find some decent players to fill the shirts they have kept ................

    Read reasons behind rejection of Sisu's application to appeal

    I would think it is going to take some exceptional talking to turn that around at an oral hearing. The appeal judge verdict does not leave much room for doubt does it On to the Supreme Court then European Court of Justice then?

    Latest Sisu legal challenge put on hold

    seems a sensible thing to happen to me and a course of action that both sides have agreed to The query I have is now this new action involves Otium does that mean the club (which is Otium trading as CCFC) will be liable for a share of the legal costs of the second action if it fails?

    Coventry City boss Steven Pressley tells striker Marcus Tudgay he's staying put

    sadly this all comes over as more muddled thinking or a reaction to not being able to get any experienced players in. I tend to think a bit of both Fine make a mistake, bring the wrong player in, need to change and ship him out, deal with the financial implications but don't make a song and...

    Yeovil Away

    Both teams with paper thin squads...... one on the back of a good battling result the other needing a reaction to two dire defeats. Got draw written all over it I reckon Just for those who may still believe....... 20 games left, target for top 6 has got to be 74 points? .......... that means 15...

    dont look here look at them.......

    I think this thread reinforced the point really didn't it. But thank you to posters like Otis, Paxman and others who understood the post and others who expressed their own valid view or opinion by discussing it Just to be clear I am not saying CCC or other parties or indeed journalists should...

    dont look here look at them.......

    I can not help thinking that in recent weeks the fans focus has been directed away from the shambles that is CCFC to other entities and other matters. It is of course not a new tactic but we are sharper than that aren't we? Yes the stuff about ACL and CCC sells papers and furthers agendas...

    Sisu refused permission to appeal...

    So if the recent application is related or connected to the first as TF explained to the SCG, and the oral hearing is not granted or fails, does that mean the second action fails too. Or is the latest action something completely different which can only be aimed at getting SISU a return for...

    More false Coventry council claims exposed over Ricoh Wasps deal-Les Reid

    actually no it wouldn't because in 2013 there is a 475k exceptional item attributable to the loan renegotiation. so the change round is 775-475+392= 692 substantially less than even just the lost CCFC rent, let alone the lost F&B profit or overhead contribution /matchday fees Only quote I have...

    More false Coventry council claims exposed over Ricoh Wasps deal-Les Reid

    you know I am heartily tired of all this. There are too many agendas firing off left right and centre. The biggest clouding of all the issues concerning the Ricoh and for that matter the club is the quite deliberate focus on individual personalities and egos. Add to that the various sides and...

    Still waiting Steven

    what we have at the moment samo is the product of muddled thinking so no chance of either of those being kept at the club or brought back we have ..........formations that change 442, 352, 451 4231 etc, confused players that lack confidence and belief, we set up to catch on the break but lack...

    What Other Team Could You Support ?

    Only ever been a supporter of CCFC, I lived in Swansea for a while and I look out for their results. If CCFC folded I would probably look to supporting CRFC and Cov blaze....... sort of diversify my professional sport watching. I have no interest in Cov Utd or Cov Sphinx What does come first in...
