    Racist chants

    Pasty, I don’t know you and have never paid special attention to what you post. Have you written any racist stuff on any threads? If so, some of the things you’ve been subjected to might make sense, but if not I’m bewildered by the way you’re being treated. I’ve looked back through the thread...

    Racist chants

    Come on martcov, even after the "Britain first" misunderstanding was cleared up? Racist views have been expressed on this thread, but not by Pasty even if I disagree with his (or her!) politics.

    32,000 sold already

    My brain’s fried too (under similar circumstances) and I did wonder if I was suffering from double vision. As it is, it’s a real morale-booster to discover that somebody’s in an even worse state than me :)

    32,000 sold already

    Not sure how you counted those, but the four blocks 531 to 528 appear to me to be more like 1000 each (approx. 40 rows averaging about 25 each). So 4000 for those 4 blocks, plus Alex's 800+ suggests around 5000 left to me. Happy to be corrected if my maths or eyesight are wrong. I'm really...

    Going out on a limb...

    The stats don’t lie, and we’ve been proven to be by far the least effective team in the division all season. But they’ve basically played without an experienced keeper or decent strikers the whole time. A badly-performing team doesn’t necessarily mean the squad has to be replaced wholesale, it...

    Nobody still believes surely ?

    I thought we needed 9 points from these last three games, so 1 doesn't really do it.

    Wembley Protest

    I agree that this day should be about supporting CCFC, and any protest should not detract from that. Opportunities to celebrate amongst a huge sea of Sky Blue are too few. Yet the strength of feeling is there for all to see, so the challenge is to find something that gets a bit of attention...

    Extra Wembley ticket required

    When the lower tiers first "sold out", there were a few available single seats dotted around. I don’t know if that’s still the case, but if it is, a Season Ticket holder who hasn’t yet used up their allocation of 6 could buy one for you.

    Silence

    Including what he said in his last interview, which was that we’d be hearing a lot more from him from now on! He never delivers on his promises, but on this occasion tbh it’s very welcome.

    Putting things into perspective

    Wish our back four and midfield would do the same.

    Wembley Protest

    The balloons thing wasn’t put forward that seriously, it was just an example of something that wouldn’t be divisive or do any harm (other than destroying the biosphere obviously!). As you say, it wouldn’t actually achieve anything. To use the worn-out Titanic analogy, the fans are the 3rd...

    Wembley (shit cup final)

    Am I allowed to like this twice? Actually when I read your first one, I thought perhaps "tgis" was some sort of canine mineral supplement :) Anyway, I agree with your point.

    Yes, you would barely have thought it possible :(

    What does Wembley mean to you?

    I get what you’re saying but based on that, short of winning a major trophy, NOTHING is going to please you. So best stop following CCFC right now. It’s like we haven’t had a holiday in decades, and we can all fantasise about a luxury Caribbean cruise or a month in the Seychelles. But what’s...

    Takeover

    Agree with you NW about the effect that a promotion and/or a win at Wembley could have. Any sort of success would surely put some wind in our sails (the first half of last season showed that). It would then be up to whoever is in charge to build on it, rather than letting it all slip away...

    Wembley Protest

    Just an observation, don’t shoot the messenger ;) The Telegraph’s petition calling for SISU to put Coventry City up for sale took a week to reach 16,000 signatures, and pretty much hit a ceiling at 20,000. All it took was a minute and a few clicks. The club sold that amount of tickets for...

    The Worst of the Worst

    Don't do yourself down Dimi, I thought you were a good keeper for the City, and I'm not surprised that you did well after leaving. Despite that, I used to have a good laugh at the alternative moniker of "Dimi Cantstopalotofshots".

    You're saying that we haven't even reached the tunnel yet?

    Protest idea

    Some are clearly shunning Wembley, and I can well understand the negative psychology induced by relegation. But consider this list of silverware. 1936 Division Three South Champions 1964 Division Three Champions 1967 Division Two Champions 1987 F.A. Cup Winners My observation from the above...

    Ratings

    Can’t give my ratings because I wasn’t there today, I can only get to a very limited amount of matches these days. This season my enviable record is P6 W3 D3 L0, we should have won two of the draws, and I haven’t seen any performances to merit the rank bad scores posted on this thread. Based...
