    That is absolutely corruption at its finest.

    Qatar World Cup 2022

    After the disaster of not being able to watch the Cov game earlier (or maybe not), I have got myself and the family back to the apartment for the England game. Downside kids are somehow so so awake and just want to play…..

    Match Thread ⚽️ Reading vs Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 10th Dec

    Kids just dropped off after hours of walking around, just as we walked past a real ale pub I had no idea existed at the Zoo (!!!) - persuaded my partner to nip in for half an hour and….. it appears to be the day a reliable stream / VPN combo is nowhere to be found!

    Match Thread ⚽️ Reading vs Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 10th Dec

    Away for a family Christmas weekend with the kids today. Not quite worked out how I’m going to get both games in yet, but I will. Can see the Cov game being on my phone while walking around the Zoo we’ve planned for later…. WC came at a bad time for us, but confident we can find our pre WC...

    Qatar World Cup 2022

    Echo what others have said, wouldn’t it be fantastic to put out those on a commentators pedestal; Mbappe, Ronaldo and lastly Messi in the final. Plus the majority of Argentinas team and a chunk of Portugal squad, are just as bad. That image above tells you all you need to know about the...

    Eviction notice

    I watched a cumulative 25 mins or so of the recorded Council meeting. Jesus Christ, even without all the CCFC stuff - what an absolute embarrassment and a worrying thought these people are in charge of the City. If you were in a work meeting with the majority of those who spoke during the...

    Eviction notice

    Whether the eviction notice is ‘standard practice’ or not, and whether it’s part of the chess game going on or not (it is), it’s still a shit thing to do from a fans perspective and shows either a lack of understanding or a lack of care. It’s caused backlash and arguments amongst fans, it’ll...

    Hoffman on the CBS Arena board?

    So far so good - plain sailing and another great day to be a City fan.

    Hoffman on the CBS Arena board?

    Not expressing a view on Hoffman either way, but again in my post from a few weeks ago I confirmed he would be involved, via a source who has been right on most things involving this farce. Hoffman has absolutely been involved since the start.

    Eviction notice

    In the Mike Ashley takeover thread a few weeks ago I mentioned he definitely wanted the club and we’d see some subtle signs of that soon. Turns out my “source” doesn’t quite understand what subtle means!

    Eviction notice

    Mike Ashley turns out to be an absolute bell end, what a surprise. Even if this is a ploy to get the club (which it is) all it’s going to do is harm us short term at the very least, and potentially long term effects too. We literally can’t have anything as fans, just as things come together on...

    Yes, my post definitely suggested Southgate out. Unlike you to exaggerate. Vanessa Paradis.

    Fair play Henderson, got up to support really well and a composed finish. Love the celebration too!

    Qatar World Cup 2022

    Tbf to Maguire, movement is absolutely minimal in front. It’s literally Rice offering the short ball and that’s it. Don’t want to go on about it, but the Henderson call is a mistake. We need players to take us forward and comfortable on the ball, that isn’t his game. He can do a job in the Rice...

    Don’t mind the Rashford one too much - he can be a big impact sub alongside Grealish, the Henderson one is frustrating, both as he isn’t that great a footballer and he was poor last game.

    Qatar World Cup 2022

    Intrigued to see what team he goes for tonight. I don’t think it’s a game for pace as they’ll match us, as many technicians on the pitch as we can wins us the game IMO. Would love only one proper holding midfielder (Rice or Phillips), alongside Bellingham with someone like Maddison in place of...

    Burnley to bid for Vik

    He is absolutely pivotal to how we play. As it COH, it isn’t one or the other. Difference with COH we have alternatives at 10, even if they are inferior, but we can make it work, as we did even if playing poor football. We have nobody anywhere near Gyokeres in terms of style, form or ability...

    Literally just sat down at a pub in Coventry town full of Korean fans (assuming students) just as they scored. Fair play - they made some noise!!

    Other than the ‘personal reasons’ do we know any detail on why Ben White has returned home?
