    Elvis planning overhaul !!!!

    Deloitte & Latouche? cant remember their second name when analysing football (at which they are considered the top experts) observed that the most underperforming clubs with the largest fanbases were 1 Sheffield Wednesday 2 Coventry City. When we were the top placed Midlands club we were the...

    We should start planning a Phoenix club...

    Agree that starting a new club just because you hate SISU is daft. But, if SISU continue down the path we all fear ie going out of the City, a slow slide into the lower leagues or liquidation there comes a point where CCFC are no longer the club any of us started supporting (See Oxford for a...

    We should start planning a Phoenix club...

    Rushden and Diamonds fans were unhappy with the amalgamation at first, but were fine when it got going. Was a shame they lost their backer or they could have kept improving. The difference with SISU is they are proven terrible owners. I would hope Haskell et al would prove to be more reliable...

    We should start planning a Phoenix club...

    Haskell to buy Nuneaton Borough who are in financial difficulties. Rebrand as club name eg Coventry Borough (like Rushden and Diamonds). Buy 1/2 Ricoh and start much higher up the league.

    Afc mercia

    Buy the part of the company that owns the golden share, amalgamate with the Boro in a Rushden and Diamonds type arrangement and start again without SISU, ACL or Coventry Council. Probably not feasible, but anything to screw all these aholes killing our club.

    Coventry vs Doncaster match thread

    Since the Doncaster away win we have lost all our best players - McGoldrick left, Clarke, Baker, Wood, Christie, Adams injured, back ups - Willis, Jordan Clarke injured, Cameron left. Our home form has been dreadful and we have nothing to play for. The players will not want to get injured and...

    Baker playing with an injury for weeks

    Baker always tries to go forward, its his default position. That is why he often loses the ball and the boo boys say he is shit. It is easy to pass back or sideways which a lot of our midfield do (Moussa excepted). 14 goals is fantastic from the right wing. We are going to miss him. Macca has...

    Sheffers: Sign or Release?

    Macca has been carrying an injury all season - this was in the Telegraph a while back. His greatest attribute was his pace and he has none this season. If its all down to the injury he has to be given a chance; if he has gone over the hill (could not get into Leeds side hardly in Div 1 and did...

    Big question , where will we finish this season ??

    Our home form really needs to step up if we want to get into the play offs now, you have to play Doncaster, Swindon and Brentford at home who are above us as well as Leyton Orient, Crewe and Crawley who are also looking at an outside play off place. Need to get something from all of these...

    Crew fans thoughts on Dunn

    Some people forget just how many points Murphy has saved us this season, there have been many times this season where we've been drawing/winning a match and he's made a class save and we've gone on to win that match.

    Time to drop the edge?

    I don't think dropping Wood is the answer, his distribution can make me want to tear my eyes out at times but the guy wins a hell of a lot in the air which is very important in this league.

    Berlin based Cov fans

    If you go and see local folk act Shanahan and Co the old fellah with the beard John Shanahan comes from Coventry - he lived in Catesbury Rd Radford. He will be a fan by association. Also a brilliant bloke.

    Quick comparison

    Man U played mainly reserves and kids that day. The City team that day included players who are now playing at a higher level. Our current team has players who to-date have not succeeded in the Championship and have had to drop a division to get a game. All our players who other teams thought...

    Half Term Report

    I suspect he will be loaned out if Clarke signs

    Half Term Report

    Perhaps I am seeing it wrong, but he reminds me of those out-and-out goalscorers who are single minded and do less of the nitty gritty stuff that McGoldrick usually does and Elliot did the other day. I would be interested to see some stats that prove it one way or the other.
