    Peterborough Match Thread

    Encouraging result. Listened on radio. Well done City. Disappointing that people chose to go and knock another nail in the club's coffin. A tragedy in football terms that the decent side Pressley is shaping in horrendous circumstances wasn't playing in their home city. That fact is the be all...

    Earliest memories of city games

    Yep. It was all or nothing with Bobby Gould teams. Always admired his attitude. And Coopy. 'Scoop.' What a great career he had with us. Think he might have made his debut back in 1966. Part of the team that took us up to the top division. Hundreds of games. His era is like our 'golden times'...

    Earliest memories of city games

    Leeds, some terrific players but a bunch of nasty cloggers. They used every trick in the book and were hated across the land. In particular Bremner,but also Giles, Hunter, Jack Charlton, Clarke, Reaney all of them good at their jobs but horrible bastards. They took 'professionalism' to new lows...

    Earliest memories of city games

    Yes we signed Hudson from Peterborough also. The story goes that Terry Bly was bought by Derrick Robbins because he thought that was who Jimmy Hill wanted. Apparently Hill preferred George Hudson. Don't forget, as forceful a personality as Jimmy Hill was, Derrick Robbins was the boss, the...

    SSIU /ACL Christmas truce

    Dave, the club is on its knees. We could be close to going out of business. Anything is possible in our current predicament. Asking fans to suspend hostilities now is asking far too much. What would you have us do? Forget the situation and discuss whether Chris Dagnall is better than Callum...

    Season's greetings + Cov Sphinx on 28 Dec

    To be honest - I'm not interested in a 12,500 capacity ground either. It would exclude many, many fans, if we were to begin to climb back up. It's an insult to the football public of the area. Shows no understanding of the club, history, the massive potential just waiting to be built upon. Stuff...

    Season's greetings + Cov Sphinx on 28 Dec

    The Gent/Thai, zuni, not sure about waiting until the end of next season. If Sisu haven't come up with a definite site by the end of this season - that is a firm, bought for site, with planning permission that is the same distance that the Ricoh is from Broadgate, then it'll be hard thinking...

    Guardian Half-Term Report

    Well said Neil Allison. Don't think many fans would disagree with that summary. I'm glad you said 'ruthlessly.' That's it exactly. And so it goes on......

    Mark Labovitch Sky Sports News interview transcript.

    He's basically accusing the council of malpractice. Probably relating to JR. They can't resist having a pop every time and yet bleat constantly about how squeaky clean and honourable they are. Little wonder there are no talks. Have SISU made an offer Mr Labovitch? I've heard nothing. Bastards.

    Plans for new stadium revealed

    Dave, the fact that you've counted 54 games where the Ricoh attendance has been higher than this proposed new ground - it says it all. Total lack of ambition. It is fooling nobody. Just when you thought it couldn't get any worse.

    Plans for new stadium revealed

    In startling new evidence revealed today, it has been confirmed that Sisu are in fact descendants of a long lost North American indian tribe from a very remote region - they are called 'the shitarewe tribe.' Their main battle cry when faced with the enemy is 'we're the shitarewe tribe.' * *...

    Oh sorry cjblaze, realise now what you were on about. It was some other bloke.

    Plans for new stadium revealed

    Obviously cjblaze was being tongue in cheek yesterday when he spoke of thrilling news. Oh dear, we really are in trouble.

    Is it time to...Support the team NOT the Regime?

    The Gent. A very relevant point. If, by some miracle, collective amnesia, all us City fans had said - Sure Tim we'll all trip over to Northampton and watch our team - we are not all going to get in are we. But there was no thought of that. We had about 8,000 season ticket holders last season, so...

    another damning article by 200% - worth a read

    This is Ian Palmer writing in today's Coventry Telegraph. "For all Sisu’s mistakes, their actions have never resulted in direct damage to the team’s chances on the field." Ever heard of Lukas Jutkiewitz Ian? Sold when the team were fighting to avoid the drop from the Championship. Scott Dan...

    Let's All Sick Together, PLEASE

    One thing about RFC, who used to be a regular poster on the Telegraph CCFC site, is that he is exceptionally polite and courteous throughout. He takes a lot of flak and possibly rightly so as he does come across like Tim Fisher's dad. He never sinks to abuse, even though he gets it. He's the...

    I think relegation to the 1st Div was deliberate

    Snozzer, in the weird set up we are in I can easily believe Sisu would do that. It is so ridiculous. The point where Juke was sold was obviously the tipping point. But even they are not THAT bonkers? More inclined to what Otis says. As more and more posters point out, our club are not important...
