    Why not a pre-season game at the Ricoh?

    Even if they were to precede 23 meaningful competitive games at the Ricoh in front of 10-12k? :)

    FFP useless?

    Are Financial Fair Pay regulations in the Championship useless? This BBC article seems to suggest that QPR could well wriggle out of sanctions for breaching FFP regulations as a result of securing promotion to the Premier Lesgue: http://www.bbc.com/sport/0/football/27538802 So it appears...

    Thanks Don. Playing along with for a minute... The more land they seek to develop, the less likely they are to gain planning permission I would have thought (and I wouldn't rate the chances highly to begin with).

    Did he say why Neverneverland stadium was taking so long? (And I'll have to rename it if TF wasn't talking in Fisherisms at you.) I would have thought they'd need to do a heck of a lot of extra development to make back the costs of a new ground and get investor returns. I don't see much evidence...

    Sky Blue Trust - Why Not Campaign?

    If you know the answer to why, you also get the answer to why not.

    Westwood

    He started the season as the first choice in his team, then got injured and lost that spot. He's only 29, still pretty young for a keeper. What he doesn't need now though is to be someone's back up keeper again.

    It's a problem for Sisu to sort out. If they don't break ACL and they can't whip the public up into pushing the council to do a deal, what are they going to do? Build Neverneverland stadium, or pick up the phone and negotiate a new deal, or sell up, or liquidate? But you're right in the sense...

    And by that measure, Mr Patton got less than 2 per cent "of the vote".

    By my quick calculations, yes, he got his deposit back, but I doesn't look like a result that will cause a shift in council policy.

    New stadium

    Oh, the interior design of the stadium will be of vital importance. They won't want directors complaining that their offices are too dingy.

    New stadium

    I detect a degree of scepticism amongst some of you. I'm shocked. Shocked, I tell you. :o :o :o Mr Fisher was very clear last year: "People have to understand we do not posture, we do not threaten, because that is not how you do business, you only do business in good faith. Always. “We...

    New stadium

    So nothing to worry about then... I guess they'll probably announce they've purchased the land for the new stadium in about three weeks.

    New stadium

    That other thread seemed to be a personal argument between certain posters on here. I want to know what Sisu are doing to bring the club home to Coventry. That's what they promised the Football League they would do within 3-5 years. One year on, I think a look at the progress they have made...

    New stadium

    One year ago today Tim Fisher said: “That long-term vision has us playing in the Coventry area in a new stadium that will be designed and delivered in three years." http://www.coventrytelegraph.net/news/coventry-news/coventry-city-chief-left-ricoh-3869400 Can we have an update on the...

    More united than we realise

    How much of "their money" have Sisu pumped into the club, unencumbured by interest payments, charges, management fees or loan repayment requirements?

    Nice finish by Ramsey.

    FA Cup

    I thought it looked like he was already going down when he got to the player. I hate footballers 'looking for it'. Arsenal are a good enough team to win the game with their football skill, not amateur dramatics. I shouldn't have to say it, but credit to Sanogo for staying on his feet earlier...

    Cazorla should have been booked for that dive.
