I always told my kids they could support anyone they wanted to. They only had to support Cov if they wanted to live inside the house.

First hero was Neil Martin - a "proper centre forward".

Worst tackle I ever saw.

It seems almost churlish to bring facts into the matter as they're obviously enjoying their vendetta so much - but if no rules had been broken neither Coventry nor Sunderland would have gone down that year. This was (for our younger readers) in the days before big squads and squad rotation. In...

I don't know about the investors, but believe me SISU will know. They'll have a media agency that will send them a copy of every newspaper article and a transcript of every TV programme that mentions them. This "bundle" will then be circulated to all their senior people, possibly weekly but...

That one really showed how dim they are - the only way we could stay up was if we won and they lost, so how could we gain any tactical advantage by knowing their result??????

If this is true, then my guess is that GH will have agreed an option to buy the stadium IF/WHEN he (the consortium) can complete a deal for the club.

I was wondering if he'd be OK to play for us if we get to the play-offs? :):)

So what happens if he gets a serious injury today?????

I'd heard a whisper that we were "making his availablity known". I wasn't sure whether to believe it, but now I'm thinking perhaps it was right. If so, something has gone badly wrong somewhere.

Apparrantly he's always had the ambition of being on the Board of a Conference club.....

So do I take it that we are agreeing that SISU's complete lack of communication - particularly in the current circumstances - demonstrates either that they are quite staggeringly inept or that they really don't give a toss about the club?

I agree with the sentiment. Perhaps my cynical side has been brought out too much, but I think SISU have given up on the club as a "going concern" and are now looking to minimise their losses before they get out. Perhaps if we end up with new owners there'd be a chance to recapture some of...

OK, let's accept for a moment that there is no cash and that SISU are not in a position to raise any more cash. Let's accept that selling your leading (only?) goalscorer, when you need all the goals you can get to avoid relegation (which will cost you millions) and when he will still have a...

That's lovely in theory, but you need a reason for people to go. I'm pretty fanatical. I've been going since the late 60's and I've had a seaon ticket since the mid 70's. My wife organised a surprise weekend away for next weekend as part of my Xmas present. Any other year, I'd have been...

I think that's what a number of us have been trying to point out in relation to the way the club's being run.

As someone once said - there's only one certain way to make a small fortune - start with a big fortune and buy a football club.

How much more would we have to pay for the fire certificate?

"Flatly" rejected. It's quite normal for an initial bid to be rejected - it's called negotiating. Flatly rejected is "please leave and don't bother coming back" Do you know something?

I can't remember where I read it, but at the time Clouting was appointed someone who claimed to know him, wrote that when he was originally interviewed for the CEO's role, SISU (I'm guesing it was Onye, but I don't know that) said that their idea was to sell the higher earning players and...
