    What's the point of kilometres ?

    Yes, granted, we teach kids in school about mm and cm because very often goods are measured as such so I accept that . A piece of timber from your local DIY store is often 2.4m (roughly 8ft) etc etc. I use both as I do a lot of building work in which I need to convert between imperial and...

    Why is Coventry so crap?

    ...as for the Whittle Arches.....well they're big I'll say that.

    Why is Coventry so crap?

    Haha, remember La Zenia fondly. Did my back in after slipping on the marble flooring and had to be helped on and off the plane . Redevelopment needs to be on a scale that Coventry City Council could never envisage. Cathedral lanes is too small. West Orchards is too small. It's a hotch potch of...

    Are we safe from relegation yet ?

    Up until Brighton, we were in the midst of a horrendous run, the sort that sees us, as usual, fall towards the drop zone. Not to be. I'm still bracing myself for it, but we're running out of time. Are we safe ?

    At least he spoke to supporters and the press. I liked his fedora.

    Why is Coventry so crap?

    That is absolutely true. Pure displacement. However I don't know what Coventry's excuse is. Big population which deserve far better than what they're being served up inside the ring road. Still, the ever increasing student population will solve all the problems.

    Why is Coventry so crap?

    Absolutely agreed. I moved out of Coventry years ago to Rugby. Its a small town of around 50,000 with an out of town development called Junction1 Elliots Field that attracts loads for people from Daventry, Leicester, Leamington, Coventry. Coventry could never do this without ballsing it up...

    Match Thread Coventry City vs Grimsby Town Match Thread - Saturday 24th Mar

    I thought the Grimsby support in terms of numbers was excellent, given the distance and their league position. Never expected as many. Well done to them.

    When was the last time.....

    Coventry city spent such a sustained period in the top half of any division ? Most clubs take such an "achievement" as a given at least once or twice every decade , but for us it's almost unheard of. Robins has given us a bit of hope where there was almost total dispair.

    I saw marilion around 1983 , in London, probably Hammersmith odeon. I've never been so bored.

    New BBC weather graphics....

    New weather graphics/ charts after news on BBC. There's no sun. They can do rain and wind and cloud . The old graphics used to "rotate " round the UK so you'd see it in more detail. I get more from hitting the red button .

    Not in the first half they didn't . Not in terms of goal scoring opportunities either.

    A tribute to our demise by opposition fans

    Anyone else noticed how away fans are singing Premier league, you f***ed it up, Premier league you f***ed it up...... Championship, you ....... League 1, you ............ League 2 , you ............. of course, this song generally kicks in when we are losing or throw away a lead, like last...

    Match Thread Coventry City v Luton Match Thread Tuesday 13th March

    Haynes' step-over-thingy to set up the first goal would have been raved about had he done it in the Premiership. That was the most outrageous piece of skills I've ever seen in league 2, and probably league 1. I expect it regularly from now on.

    Match Thread Coventry City v Luton Match Thread Tuesday 13th March

    First half was as good as we've played at home this season (which has generally been poor ) . In the second half Luton simply upped the pace and showed why they have been top for most of the season. Either team could have won it in the end. I'll settle for a point as long as it's sandwiched...
