    We're walking this league: shots stats prove it

    Tommy, you're right of course. It's the points for winning that count. But over a season, luck tends to even out. And I don't think we've been very lucky so far. Notts County were second best in attempts on goal against us, Swindon and Exeter. Yet they are above us in the table at the...

    We're walking this league: shots stats prove it

    It's early days, but after 10 games we may not have the most points, but we're the only team that's had more shots and more shots on target than our opponents, and less against us, in every single game we've played. It may look this season as if no team is walking this league, but that may be...

    It's about half a mile. Go down Wellington Street opposite the station and follow Manchester Road past the bus station till it meets County Road.

    First Ever Cov Match You Saw ?

    Sadly no. My family moved to Cardiff in 1959 and games became increasingly spaced out. And now I'm in Cambridgeshire and getting to games shouldn't be difficult, I have carer responsibilities that rule it almost permanently.

    First Ever Cov Match You Saw ?

    I think I saw both games but I've mixed them up in my memory. Blimey, it was only just over 60 years ago. City won every home game I watched in 53 up until Christmas including that first game when we won 4-0. But the following season I saw Tommy Capel score quite a few goals. I don't know...

    First Ever Cov Match You Saw ?

    I've really enjoyed reading this thread. It's prompted some online searches to fill in the sketchy memories of my first Coventry match. All I could remember for certain was that it was against Leyton Orient in the Third Division South when I was about seven. I thought I remembered clearly...

    Appeal granted

    It's very likely the appeal will be turned down, but I think it would be great if it was upheld on appeal. Why would anyone want CCFC to lose? Why would any City supporter want Wasps and the council to win?

    Will Thomas Sign A New Contract (Poll)

    Might be interesting seeing who turns out in the team vs Tamworth today. It's expected to be largely a U23 side but with a fair number of U18s too. But will there be some who are not included in the trip to Spain: RCC, Camwell, Turnball, Harries, Reid and Kwame Thomas perhaps? What might...

    Why bizarre? Seems like a good way to make sure he isn't inveigled away.

    Pre Season Gallery / Greg Moorhouse on Trial

    From the Belfast Telegraph - sourced from Sky Blues Talk! "He made 39 appearances for Glenavon last season, scoring 15 goals in the process and contributing nine assists. Those included a hat-trick against Ballymena United on January 3 and that record seems to have been enough to persuade the...

    Jim Blyth's comments on Oggy...

    The valid comparison for Burge and RCC is Reg Matthews. Made 111 appearances for City from 1950 to 1956 and is one of only five post-war players to be capped while playing for a Third Division club. I think he was still only 22 when he left to play for Chelsea. George Curtis made his debut as...
