The coverage of Birmingham on here is more breathless than any media outlet

* Wright is a top Championship striker * Simms has shown goalscoring ability but had a poor season, and it remains to be seen if Lampard will have patience with him * BTA is a capable role player but is expendable if we feel like shuffling the pack * Bassette is obviously not good enough at the...

I’m not here to personally defend every story that the BBC publish about us, but you’re right that stories should include proper context, of course. As I say, for a comparatively niche beat like Coventry City Football Club, I’m glad that we get journalists covering us at all, and the bar for...

There was a guy in this country who got sent down for it just last month - didn’t hear much from you about it though? https://www.cambs.police.uk/news/cambridgeshire/news/2025/june/man-stabbed-police-officer-in-the-arm/

You’re hanging on my every word today! Would I write an article about notorious lunatic William Storey claiming he wanted to buy the club if it was my job to cover Coventry City and he was giving me an interview? I don’t know, maybe? Is this supposed to be some kind of major scandal...

Ilan Rubin is an unbelievable drummer, and totally wasted on the Foo Fighters

Just wondered why you don’t post about the people getting stabbed in Sudan

Why post it though? People are getting stabbed all over the world. Is this one just more fashionable for some reason?

Genuinely though, why look for footage? There have been people dying in awful circumstances all of my life and no doubt the same for everybody else. Yeah there's the internet now but why spend time looking for it and watching it if it is going to impact your day?

He was trying to buy the stadium, in other words. It’s ok, you got it wrong, it happens.

This link you mean? King’s bid to buy the stadium is in the fourth paragraph! Maybe lower your font size or something?

I’m honestly not sure what you’re ranting about here - I’m just saying that it was common knowledge that Doug King tried to buy the Arena, not an “ITK” thing as you initially said. I don’t believe King is financially better placed than SISU to build a new stadium (although I would bet he’s...

It’s a matter of public record that King tried to buy the stadium himself, it’s not an ITK hunch. My point is that if he really wanted to build a new stadium, he would be doing so by borrowing the cash, and I don’t know if he is much better equipped than SISU to do that. But also like SISU, I...

I think his appeal is obvious really - people like to see players who shithouse (the Dark Arts!!) and play with fan-level intensity. I just don’t think he currently has the football intelligence or skill to back it up yet.

I don’t think you needed ITK status to know that, just an internet connection! Mike Ashley: Ex-Newcastle United owner takes over CBS Arena, home of Coventry City

I’m all for nurturing prospects, but it is baffling to me that a player of his quality cost us ~£2.5 million, and if someone is willing to pay us that back then we should take it imo

Huh?

Doug King is in no greater position to invest his own money into a new stadium than SISU were. It was a silly idea then and it’s a silly idea now, we don’t have to pretend that threatening to build a new stadium is now some genius chess move just because the team is in better shape on the pitch.

No, it was CWR Coventry City Council has 'no plans' to offer Wasps financial support Seems pretty obvious that Gilbert has a sympathetic source inside the council and I imagine this is where today’s story is from too

It’s not their job to be helpful.
