    Blackpool Tuesday anyone ?

    Another option is the A50 to Warrington, slower but similar mileage to M6 but not sure what it’s like late afternoon, you go past Trentham gardens so could get busy there.

    That’s good news perhaps puts him a lot nearer to first team action than I thought, we have a checkatrade game on the horizon perhaps he’ll feature in that.

    Blackpool Tuesday anyone ?

    You could go M1 to M60 and across to north of Manchester will put extra mileage to journey but no major roadworks, my lad lives in Wigan area and the M6 is a constant nightmare at the minute.

    Sterling negativity

    Agree 100% and I’d go so far to say young Sterling has little chance of first team regular football at Chelsea hope I’m proved wrong though. What the parent clubs do, especially the Premiership clubs but championship clubs are doing it now too, Derby just have with Luke Thomas, is bang them on a...

    Match Thread Coventry City at Blackpool Match Thread - Tuesday 21st Aug

    Be interesting to see if Davies comes back in and for who, otherwise I expect an unchanged team. Not sure if Kelly is fit again or .not if he is he could come in for Doyle

    U23's Match at Ricoh

    Interesting change using Ricoh for what is a reserve match as I thought deal for using Ricoh was first team only. I know Higgs is under a bit of development and perhaps not usable but I assume we’d have to pay to use Ricoh.

    Sterling negativity

    I don’t like loans full stop. Other than a goalkeeper in an emergency due to injury. All we are doing is developing talent for another club, usually rookies who have not hardly if at all kicked a ball in anger for their parent club. Why not develop our own ? Last season Tom Bayliss and Jordan...

    Highfield Road Or The Ricoh ?

    Highfield Road was tired and did need a massive overhaul and there were ambitious plans which I saw to do so, but there was money to be made for some by moving lock, stock and barrel to the then disused old Foleshill gas works. For me it’s not so much the stadium or it’s design it’s just the...

    Conor Chaplin - Signing Confirmed (Finally!)

    I’ve given up reading about Joy Sepalla and sisu ages ago, but I seem to recall when the Northampton issue was boiling up and MPs were raising issues in the House that’s when she got personally involved and didn’t even know Coventry City were part of her sisu empire.

    Sterling negativity

    You’re 100% correct. People seem to forget he’s a rookie don’t know how many if any starts he had at Chelski but this is his debut season as a regular. Think he was probably over blown when he joined and fans were expecting too much too soon.

    Security a bit over the top?

    Will that’s okay then, can’t blame the council on that one !

    Security a bit over the top?

    I don’t know the rules but if a system just doesn’t work I’d assume there is a way round it surely can’t be right to just send punters back to a long queue at the ticket office and for what ? the same problem perhaps. If there are regular long term ticketing issues it needs highlighting with the...

    He had an acl injury which is a long one, 12 months or so. Most who have that it is said modern surgery makes the knee stronger I reckon he’s 2 months away proberly back end of October from first team action, reckon he’ll be physically fit and raring to go now will just need a bit more time for...

    Security a bit over the top?

    I know all that but if tickets are not working and it’s the same system as Wasps or even a concert use are there similar problems then ?

    Security a bit over the top?

    You say the police and I’m not doubting you but the same police force cover Villa, Blues, Albion, Wolves and Walsall do these clubs have similar issues to us then ? And if it is a print problem with these tickets are our (ccfc) tickets printed somewhere different to Wasp ones ?

    Conor Chaplin - Signing Confirmed (Finally!)

    I don’t know but suspect not as loaded from a business point of view as she was, and if we are looking for a billionaire sugar daddy or mummy it won’t be her.

    Match Thread Coventry City vs Plymouth Argyle Match Thread - Saturday 18th Aug

    Brown has had a serous injury missing most the second half of last season. I noticed at Wimbledon he had a belt around his legs doing some sort of excercises, perhaps he’s just not 100% yet.

    Apparently pissing and even worse at back of stand was a fairly regular event, Back to the game: not in England I read Davies was ill but what about Junior Brown for me his 20 minutes at Wimbledon was our shining light in a poorish performance, surprised he wasn’t even a sub.
