    Don't forget Onye Igwe if we're looking at culprits from the Sisu early years.

    Court Match Thread

    We weren't in great financial shape and something had to be done. I've said before that the first thing they should have done (before pissing anyone off) was reunited the club with the share of ACL. The Higgs would have likely sold us the share for the option price (or whatever it was called)...

    boom a rang - breaking news

    I hope they won't be taking the Amber Nectar with us like Sisu have all these years.

    Better the devil you know?

    I've got no problem with someone else owning our club in fact that's something I'm looking forward to. However last time we had new owners we ended up with Sisu. Now The Hoff actually is a football fan and a Sky Blues fan which is great. What I really don't want though is another Sisu. I'd...

    Rumour: Hoffman and Elliot takeover negotiations

    I wouldn't bother, what was it Simon Jordan said about Sisu "These guys are living in Narnia" and "riding the Hogwarts Express about what they think they can get for that club."

    Rumour: Hoffman and Elliot takeover negotiations

    I'm thinking of the leaked board meeting minutes where they talked about closing the Academy to save money. Both Joe and Gary were on the board then, Joe apparently raised the question of the PR aspect of this "and it is important that the correct message is received by fans." Thankfully the...

    Rumour: Hoffman and Elliot takeover negotiations

    Maybe he was reading this thread and the title stuck in his mind? Maybe he's a secret member of this site? Maybe I'm going to the match thread instead of this one...

    Rumour: Hoffman and Elliot takeover negotiations

    Whilst I can't imagine anyone being worse owners than SISU it's clearly possible and those calling for caution are just being sensible. What is apparent is that Gary Hoffman appears to be a Sky Blues fan and Joy (despite the apology for the relegation) doesn't appear to be. I realise that the...

    Match Thread Rochdale v Coventry Match Thread - Monday 17th Apr

    Given the news from Friday anything we can do to get off the bottom will be welcome. Yes we're relegated but we can avoid the stigma of being bottom at the end of the season.

    Tim Fishers Appraisal

    When I read the Telegraph website yesterday and it had at 18:03 "From joy to despair: 15 photos that sum up today's match" I remembered Joy was still around (although not in Coventry I suspect). Tim may have been great for SISU but a disaster for us. Get rid of Joy - you could argue Tim has...

    We also need Rochdale to beat Shrewsbury quite comprehensively say by 15 goals. Sadly that isn't happening at the moment.
