Couldn't agree more. A very cultural city with two teams who they are passionate about. They seem very knowledgable about football in general too and I've itd beeb pleasantly surprised how much some of them I've spoken to know what's going on at Cov (even before this mess). I've noticed if I go...

Ok forget the loyalty side of things for a second, let's not forget this is this guys career and a move like this won't have helped it by doing this (if in the case that the personal reasons story isn't true)

Wait until he sees our 32000 seater stadium....

He will probably be back next week. If not its a strange decision if that's a cover up story as he isn't allowed to play for any other team this season and similiar to the Fonz he needs to resurrect his career by the sounds of it. Hope he's ok if its genuine.

I'd have thought the Ricoh would be a similiar price to elland road due to it being newly built and its number of facilities?

We will probably get so far and then lose the game that would take us into the top six. I just can't see it. Having said that, its amazing how perceptions change after a couple of wins so we'll see.

Just been watching FL72 preview and the above said that Leon Clarke was the reason Wilson got his goals. I'm not sure I agree to be honest. I thought it was Wilson's pace that got him the goals!

He's very well liked here in Bpool and people,were frustrated that Paul Ince rarely played him.

2 - 1 Fleck (he's due a goal) and Baker

To summarise, they haven't achieved anything at all other than create an even more difficult challenge for the team to reach the play offs. I thought that was the whole point of them rejecting the offer from SISU in order to begin an investigation into the administration process. However, that...

Completely agree! When I've seen him in the past, he's done well with the pressing tactics but looked a bit out of place in terms of technical ability and composure. Last night he turned into a different player and was just as a composed as Fleck.

An Arsenal fan just phoned up defending Coventry and accused the pundits; one of them being Bobby Gould for being too harsh on us! I'd have to agree. I thought that in the second half, we were a match for, if not better than Arsenal in spells (Until the final ten minutes). We lost 4 - 0 but I...

I think its partly due to the short term nature of a players employment. Id have a guess that the average duration of a player at a club is 3 years maybe less. Although it seems a long time, in the grand scheme of things its nothing compared to some jobs where people may spend 20+ years and...

Usually a sign of a good defender is that they don't get spoken about much meaning they are doing their job well! He's certainly one of them. Plus he can attack too!

Yes we got very lucky indeed. Blackpool managers don't get much to spend at all but Ince has had a lot more than Pressley yet all he has done is moan about lack of funds. When i said filling the void of football its only just. They have been very poor. It was nothing short of miraculous that...

Thanks for the welcome messages! :) I can at least now relax - it would have been embarassing if nobody replied! Probably would have just closed my account and brushed it off as a fail!

I'm not really on either side in all honesty, the saga has become so complicated and clouded that i'd need a combination of masters degrees in law, finance and business to have a chance of unravelling whats going on behind the scenes! But thats my point, supporting a club is supposed to be a...

No not James. But it proves my next point that there are probably a lot more sky blue fans than you may think outside of Coventry. I've met several in Blackpool alone over the years :)

Hi guys, been reading the forum for a while now (mainly to absorb the gossip since SISU left the Ricoh) so finally decided to join! As for the name I'm a sky blue but been living Blackpool most my life! Just thought id introduce myself before randomly posting :)
