    Wake up supporters - you are being conned!

    1 - The former owners of the club Robo & McGin financial negligence selling HR running up huge debts 2- Council & Higgs stepped in to provide the initial funding plus financial clout but mostly the financial gravity to deliver the Tesco funded project. CCFC were incapable both financially and...

    I talked to B.C.F.A re. phoenix club.

    I think the name Coventry Phoenix is apt, the city has a link to the concept of a phoenix having risen from the ashes following the blitz of 1940. Play in sky blue sing the old songs, moving to Northampton is going to kill the club. As long as SISU can break -even they will hang onto ccfc...

    4,000 away fans, last season we took that number on 3 occasions Emirates, Spurs MK Dons. " Premier league ground pi$$ ups MK Dons in the middle of a good run and it was Xmas. There will never be 4,000 even if top of the league.

    Just calculated....

    3 years I remember Hucks having his picture taken at the gasworks site in 1998, in December 2002 CCC passed a motion to build the stadium and shops, 3 years seems very optomistic

    Feel so angry, is anyone going to Sixfields today?

    Work in Northampton may pop down there at dinner time and try to get on TV. Won't be setting foot in there when its a Cov home game.

    In a nutshell please

    Still don't know where we are playing. Still don't know if FL will approve Otium and give them the golden share. There is still a risk that David Bell might be crawling down the wings Won't be listening to Stuart Hall on Radio5 for a few years.

    Guess The Crowd

    To challenge to get into the premiership from the championship can't be done in a 15,000 stadium a realistically sized stadium 25,000 would cost £40m + sisu are not capable of delivering such a stadium, look at heir achievements to date and what evidence is there of any effective financial or...

    Why we will probably struggle next season - FFP

    "You also have to consider that SISU will obviously want CCFC to get promoted" - not sure they are that bothered, two years ago they allowed loads of players to leave, signed 2 goalies and a forward got 1 midfielder on loan - condemning us to relegation - moving to Walsall is their choice...

    Why we will probably struggle next season - FFP

    6,000 diehards travelling to Warsaw, not a chance. There is not a single ST holder that I know who will going, I live in Coventry and a fan of many years and do not know of a single fan who will get a ST for the season. I know of a few fans who will pick and choose their games. If it is...

    Keep Coventry in Coventry - NOT ONE PENNY MORE! Protest 12 noon at Ricoh 29.6.13

    I was there very impressed with Moz's speech, the irony of a faceless statue next an iconic figure like Jimmy Hill worked brilliantly.

    The penny drops for Presley

    I am all for FFP but if an owner wants to give a club money without increasing its debt then it should be allowed. High value long term deals offered to 2 injury prone players knowing that FFP was around the corner, only SISU would do this.

    The penny drops for Presley

    A sponsorship deal arranged by another SISU group company would give the club cash without increasing its debt. Man CIty's stadium sponsorship deal is how thy intend to overcome FFP.

    The penny drops for Presley

    Why is our playing budget being cut so dramatically? cos are owners are planning to move us out of the city where crowds will fall massively - is this another tactic to shift the blame for our problems onto Bell and Sheffers. FFP - won't stop a non-debt cash injection from our new owners otium...

    Bell - I'm staying

    David bell one of the biggest show ponies ever to play for us, when he did turn up he was too slow to be effective, lots of flicks etc.. away from the danger zone rarely had an impact in the final third but did score a great goal against Doncaster, we've had 2 prime ministers since then time...

    Even more players to go.

    I'm glad Jennings is going, thought he was awful, he couldn't pass and couldn't really tackle small and ineffective in the air no pace so rarely beat a player and couldn't really shoot. Many raved about him I just saw him as a poor version of Lloyd McGraph, who definitely imposed himself on a...
