Remember him going but didn't know it was due to outstanding legal bills.

Very well said. Agree.

Seem to remeber Sunderland getting promoted to the old first division due to the fact that Swindon had been paying illegal payments to players. Think that happened about 1990 or 1991. Remember talking to some Sunderland fans at the time and they had no sympathy for Swindon at all. Hope the...

I may be wrong but I don't recall any local politicians ever commenting on this situation, which is suprising given how long it has been going on for. Agree that his career has been ruined by these events, and that just seems cruel.

Am no fan of the council for many reasons, but on this issue they have my full support. SISU have seen the stadium as a nice big opportunity to 'relieve' the council and the people of Coventry of an excellent facility. Suspect they thought they could bully the council into accepting that they...

How Robbie Savage can pass comment on any one is an utter joke!! Come to think about it, the BBC looses all credability employing him in the first place!!

Agree with just about every word. Strachan stayed too long as manager and I always felt he was too close to some of his players to be objective about their perfomances. The appointment of Jim Smith was one of the most lamentable decissions ever made. What on earth was McGinnity thinking of?

Without question..........YES!!!! Have reached the point where I feel CCFC will never play at the Ricoh again. Really hope I am wrong but just don't see a way out of this situation. On that basis i have to decide, support/get behind a local team i.e. Leamington, Nuneaton, Bedworth, Sphinx or...

Magnus Headman? Always thought he was a decent signing.

Could be wrong, but was under the impression that to help raise the money to pay the wages of Big Rons signings, a lot of up and coming players that were coming through the ranks were released. Could be argued that they were released as it was felt they would not make the grade. Always...

As a kid I used to collect a series called 'Soccer Stars', which was basically pictures of all the players from every first division club. You then stuck them in an album. Tony Hateley was the first Sky Blue player I got. The excitement was fantastic!!! I lost the album many years ago, but can...

Could not agree more. An unobscured view along the pecinct to the Cathedral would be magnificent. Who on earth ever thought it would be a good idea to obscure the view of the Cathedral by sticking a tacky bulding like Cathedral Lanes in the way? Someone should be held responsible for that...

Agree about losing half the architecture. My late father aways said that the council did more damage to Coventry than the German Air Force ever managed to do. Apologies to anyone who lost relatives during the Coventry air raids.

Agree with a lot of this. Solihull (Touchwood) is light years ahead of anything in Coventry. Somehow Leamington has mamnaged to maintain a charm and individuality that attracts shoppers. How has Coventry fallen so far behind?

Agree!!!! So many people don't know how to use the ring road properly. My misses still refers to the outside lane as the "overtaking lane" threby justifying her decission to drive around on the inside lane!!

Sad to say but the centre of Coventry, for the most part, is a shit hole. As a Coventry Kid it breaks my heart to admit it. Have never understood how a city with so many historic buildings within its actual centre, can allow those buildings to just sit and rot. No other city in this country...

Years ago got cut up on the ring road by Alan Brazil. Probably didn't understand the 'Coventry Ring Road Etiquette' of filtering on and off and not being a pushy bastard!!

You have to wonder how that slipped under the "medical radar"!!!!

Agree with every word. Cannot see any way the club will be around in two to three years time.

Terry Yorath........was gutted when he left and went to Spurs!!!
