    Yes, I think the biggest single factor is luck, not just good luck under Venus but also bad luck inder TM

    The Chesterfield 'Halloween' protest-a step too far?

    They look like minature banjos, no wonder our strikers can't hit a cow's arse with one

    Yesterday's Victory, A Tactical Masterstroke By Venus?

    Yesterday's game reminded me a bit of the 1996 season, we had as bad a start and by December were second from bottom. Then we signed Huckerby and played the sort of game where we sat back in defence and hit the opposition on the break using Huck's pace. It didn't exactly turn our season around...

    Yesterday's Victory, A Tactical Masterstroke By Venus?

    Were Rochdale conned by our tactics yesterday? Soak up pressure and look totally inept for most of the game, then hit them devastatingly on the break? - a sort of football equivalent of the rope-a-dope.

    City v Rochdale player ratings

    Irrespective of the performance today, the point is we have closed the gap, and done it in 2 games, which last week I didn't think was possible. We need to hang in until January and hope we can get some players we really need. The season isn't over yet.

    Why won't sisu sell?

    Yes I have thought for a long time they are waiting for a good year re: other bundled investments so they can offload CCFC without too much pain. The financial world has been generally very depressed since 2008 up until now.

    Difficult Week Coming Up

    Oxford on Tuesday and Rochdale on Saturday, if we don't get at least 1 good result from these 2 games we could be cut adrift. Oxford have beaten Bradford & Bolton this month and Rochdale are on a winning streak of 6 straight wins. Still, on the positive side of things we are only 11 points off...

    Pressley Favourite

    Bookmakers certainly think so, with SkyBet having Steven Pressley as the runaway favourite with odds of 11/8. http://www.coventrytelegraph.net/sport/football/football-news/rumour-mill-former-coventry-city-11959211

    Invisble owner and chairman

    Unfortunately I can't see anything but relegation for us this year, we can't strengthen until Jan except for free agents no-one else wants, even if we had the funds. By then it could be too late. It's all pointing towards Sisu calling it a day at the end of the season. I think we will have a...

    Nothing to do with SISU

    Yes, continuity is key IMO, and the main reason why we are in this position now , we relied too much on loans last season. I remember Swindon coming to the Ricoh in 2014, and looked the best team in the division. They whacked us 3-0, mostly done with loans, yet last season they struggled. For...

    Mowbray out

    Ok so what's the answer? accept relegation? People were saying wait until 10 games to judge how good the team is, well it's game 10 on Wednesday and we are guaranteed to be in the bottom 4 what ever that result. TM got it wrong in the close season and up to close of the transfer window, he knew...

    is there a curse on the club

    I don't think its a curse but has anyone noticed that apart from the premiership the bottom club in the other 3 divisions all begin with "C" (Cardiff, Coventry & Cambridge). Maybe if we changed our name we might get some better luck.

    Saturday's game - biggest ever.

    1. We can't drop much further than our current position 2. I Don't think our squad is currently anywhere near good enough for a title challenge.
