    ACL must not give in

    In fact, I think this is such an important discussion for both the football club and city itself, I have gone to the trouble of creating an e-petition. I will post the link as soon as it has been verified.

    ACL must not give in

    I also agree with Kevin Foster (probably the first and last time I'll be on the tories side, but still!). We've had enough secrecy, shady dealings and spin to make another 5 series of The Thick of It. CCFC fans, as well as the Coventry taxpayer NEED to know what exactly they're planning. The...

    Is being Coventry City manager the hardest challenge in football ?

    It's probably just as bad as the England job. I can't believe how much I still love football considering I support Cov and England!

    CET: Mark Robins will face city crisis after unable to agree terms with Paul Ince

    Personally I think this is bullshit. More likely the CET trying to appear as though they had their three man short list right a few days ago. Why would we go for someone outside the three after the 1st choice didn't come? Terrible paper and terrible journalists!

    Jesus, have you forgotten last season? Everyone was saying the exact opposite! Last year seems to have destroyed the confidence of our youth players.

    I've heard from a reliable source that Collins never wanted to come here after the way the club treated him before he signed for Villa...

    Haa, he was probably looking for the fisheries behind the training ground!

    Turn the lights off

    As appealing as it sounds (all these ideas about a new city centre ground) we're basically at the Ricoh or we don't exist at all. The reason The Ricoh makes so much money is that it can diversify into other events - rugby, concerts, exhibitions etc. A new city centre ground would cost a) money...

    Turn the lights off

    There are simply too many people/companies trying to take a profit out of the Ricoh. Too many fingers in a small pie. CCFC will be the first to have their fingers snapped at this rate

    Bye Coventry thanks for the memories

    I think the premier league is a lot better marketed than back in those days and we would attract more fans if we were there today. The Ricoh is a lot more inclusive - HR was built for the white working class man. Football today aims to attract middle class fans, who will typically spend more...

    Interesting article in today's Daily Mail

    I can only go to about 5 home games a season as I'm currently living up north. Thanks for your speedy response, excellent mathematics and attempt at solving my problems though pal

    WTF City

    Is it definitely CCFC who operate the car parks? I've got a feeling it could be the ACL. Either way, it is way over the top. Too many fingers in the Ricoh Arena pie are making the matchday experience too expensive and coupled with terrible football, we're going to have no fans left soon. The...

    Hardly what you'd call complimentary. Very critical of the pricing for yesterday's match

    A CUP HALF FULL or A CUP HALF EMPTY

    That's to put my proverbial cup back together. Not to sniff and take away the pain!

    A CUP HALF FULL or A CUP HALF EMPTY

    For me, it feels like the cups been smashed on the floor, waiting to get swept away. Hopefully someone finds the glue.

    We think Norwich and Saints are similar to us

    We've done nothing since 1987 and people have gradually fallen away, its not surprising. My first season ticket was 1997. I saw two cracking premier league seasons, a terrible one, 10 years of the championship and now league 1. I was at Old Traffold when we beat Man Utds kids, that's been the...

    So glad to see Hussey score!

    I was not booing last night, but I've been getting pretty pissed off with Hussey. He must have a 10% pass completetion rate for this season. I don't mind players giving it their all and having a bad game, but he doesn't seem to be helping himself. He just looks like he doesnt want to be here...

    Dissertation Research - Highfield Road / The Ricoh Arena

    1) I only attended Highfield Road between the age of about 8 and 14 with my old man. We used to drive around looking for a parking space which could take forever, especially during the PL, or get a lift off someone else. Used to go in the Hastings before hand, I can still remember how you...

    Barton

    So McGoldrick has played half an hour in a team where everyone was already playing shit, and he looks worrying? The mentality of our fans worries me more than any of our players.
