    Coventry City Top Ten Players

    Most of my favourites been mentioned but I first watched in 1973. Tommy Hutchison would therefore be number one for me. The other pre 1987 player I would include would be Steve Hunt, while I always had a soft spot for Garry Thompson too.

    Martyn Waghorn

    If we released him for free I could see up to half the clubs in our league being interested in Godden. Not necessarily as a guaranteed starter for sure, but most Championship clubs have 4 or 5 forwards in their squads so I think there would be definite takers.

    January Transfer Window

    Its another 18 months before we would lose Hamer for nothing!

    January Transfer Window

    It is also misguided to judge players on their one or two games a season against us. I remember Bellingham getting pelters after our cup games against Birmingham a couple of years ago but now look at him. On the other side I remember people delighted that we signed Clayton Ince and Michael...

    January Transfer Window

    Not sure Hamer has publicly said he wants off. Even if he does I imagine it will be part of a career plan he has in mind rather than the implication that he no longer wants to play for us. I would be surprised if that career plan entailed a move in this window though, as it will provide him with...

    The future of the club

    Endless mid table finishes would lead to losses in support down the line, with a resultant loss of income through the gate. We have to make some kind of play off challenge every few seasons to sustain or improve our support base. Even relegation followed by immediate promotion could be better...

    January Transfer Window

    I think thats a bit OTT. Hardly anyone has brought in a new player so far apart from Forest. Cook looks a decent signing on paper, but when Davis was mentioned as a loan signing on here in the Summer he was widely ridiculed for such a poor scoring record. To be fair Dike looks a good signing for...

    Top Ten City goals of all time

    Also remember Hutch scoring a bit of a thunderbolt against Gary Bailey for Man U. Think we won 4-3!

    Match Thread Derby (H) FA CUP

    Of course you have a right to this view, even if I disagree with it, but seeing as you don't give a shit I will expect no negative comments from you if we lose the game. My view is that resting players, will not make getting a result against Peterborough any more likely, so why bother doing it?

    Top Ten City goals of all time

    Could probably do a Top 10 of Ndlovu goals that would all hold their own. As well as those already mentioned I remember his goals at Wimbledon in a relegation crunch match. Also a winning goal he scored against Villa and one against Norwich when Ray Stubbs went all Barry White on Match of the...

    Rumour - Stuart Mckinstry

    Has anyone ever suggested Dabo to play in centre midfield?

    City in Europe - 1970

    Great photos. I don't imagine it was that easy (or cheap) to travel to Bulgaria back then - certainly no package holidays to Sunny Beach available I would have thought! Anyone know how many travelled to Munich in the next round? Shame we couldn't play in Europe after winning the Cup as travel...

    Millwall Match Thread 29th December.

    Maybe mixing you up with another poster, but there is a poster on here who brings up this reddit site with monotonous regularity. Rather than 'promoting' this site which may or may not show the game, or may or may not require a good ad blocker, why not advise those who can't make it, but want...

    Millwall Match Thread 29th December.

    You are forever promoting this reddit site, even over the legitimate sites that provide income to the club - I don't get it!

    Coventry United Ladies

    The people running women's football effectively want to follow the men's example and are star struck by the mens PL, hence the immediate haste to have a Manchester United ladies team placed straight into the top league. The days of a Doncaster Belles type of team being successful are long gone...

    Stoke/Millwall/Luton attendances

    Only if you could guarantee promotion instead. You can't do that though so we should therefore take the FA Cup seriously, progress as far as we can in it, and hope the club can make some good money that might make MR's job a little easier down the line.

    Cardiff away

    For the conspiracy theorists amongst you could Cardiff have got wind of the BCD instruction and quickly found the appropriate level of injuries/ positive tests to cancel the game? If they can't play in front of crowds, while their English opponents can, they will soon be at a financial...
