It wasn't. Does this count as the last word on the matter? If not, I am not sharing my sweets with any of you at playtime.

When you are new to a thread and it purports to be about 'new boys' and you find yourself entrenched in several pages of the usual bollocks about Thorn, you pass comment and it comes up at the end. The guy did so and apologised. Should have been the end of the story, let's see if it is now. I...

It was a joke, I am far too subtle. * EDIT - I am tempted to ask 'what if he comes back as a scout' with a wry smile on my face, but it will provoke further pages. So it is dropped. Move along, nothing to see here.

It is wildly optimistic to suppose that the main talking point of the forum will be extinct when there are interviews about him in the press and he has been sacked a mere handful of days ago. I just know that everyone on here is looking forward to forgetting about him, concentrating on our team...

Who is history?

Mind you, this was a thread all about Thorn and what you said was fairly innocuous. Did it betray the fact I have gone a little tired of the same old back and forth and the fact you are a daily mouthpiece for one side. Apologies, it is a forum and people can say / ignore what they want.

I don't know, can't see the back page. I assume you do know and it is another rhetorical question. I would posit a vague guess that your comment alludes to yet another anti-Thorn sentiment, not that you have grown predictable. At a guess, I would imagine Kilbane had good things to say about the...

I think this forum will implode if arguments about Thorn are dropped. They have appeared in so many threads and gone round in circles just as many times. He was Chief Scout and Manager at the Club when we picked up some gems. Also some not so good players. As who scouted who is 98% guesswork and...

I have heard that Shaw has 'been given' five games. Whether that is to prove what he can do or to give the board time to find someone else (or a combination of the two... or even if this is a load of bollocks - I know where it came from, but it does sound like the sort of thing that could just...

I am certain we are not alone in the proportion of dullards we have who follow the Club. I am no fan of 'I just can't get enough', 'your Mum's your Dad' and some of our less thoughtful chants, but I am of an age now where I can opt out of the ones I don't like and join in with the ones I do...

I would imagine any reference to Thorn will cease within a day or two, since he is now ex-Coventry City (and we are all still fans)...

We bought nine players in this close season and are one of the favourites to go up. Perhaps doesn't make us a more alluring option than a struggling Championship side with owners who would appear more keen on recouping losses than strengthening the team, but I don't think saying 'who else would...

I bow to your superior knowledge of the site. It is just a little hard to take when someone points to that as the counter stance to their argument or fires it at you in previous debates out of all context (perhaps as they have seen it written explicitly once before on a forum that has several...

I was expecting plenty of this on here when I returned from being away and saw what happened. Fair play to those who were right all along. They should lord it over their fellow Coventry fan at every opportunity. Gloss over the contrasting and reasonable opinions espoused by many and state...

I saw very few on here claim this. Maybe occasionally out of exasperation at the same old debate, but I always perceived the main sentiment as being that SISU were more likely to stick with Thorn as the cheapest option last season. That was temporarily my view, although it was dropped when I...

Not long back from a festival and missed all the excitement. I bet it has been very amicable on here, little gloating or 'I told you so' as usual..? For whatever it is worth, I had a good 45 minute chat with ROD towards the beginning of last season and he couldn't speak highly enough of 'Thorny'...

No, because both are playing for Coventry City this season in League 1, Cameron doesn't always fill me with confidence and I am not so sold on Brown being shit all season in the games he plays at centre back. I didn't think he was great against Yeovil or tonight, I hope he can do a job if we...

I would imagine it was more like he needed Brown to fill in today at right back (and he may well have been dropped for Malaga if Clarke hadn't got injured). Too early to comment on any other motives than thinking Brown was a better bet for the first League game of the season and having his hand...

I am hopeful he will turn out to be a better bet at centre back than Cameron.

Barton has a very languid and laid back style to his play. Didn't make the same impression with me as he started to at Yeovil, but I think - particularly if we manage to get on a little run and start playing a little bit of a higher tempo passing game round the middle of the park during such a...
