The thing is which ever way we look at it presently sisu are up against the cushion and behind the black ball, they have no ground in 18 months, which seriously devalues their asset, the landlord won't talk to them with these legals going on, I think both sets of heels are dug in there, the...

The story I believe about the change of colour to Sky Blue was a bit of an accident apparently. JH did initiate a colour change to Coventry blue, which is a known shade of blue from our ribbon making history, the same shade as the blue on ribbon island on the Foleshill Road which is darker than...

Not really, our kit at the time was virtually all white with dark blue trim, we had been blue and white quarters for a while but had changed, so yes in a way you are correct dark blue and white was the official colour but as I said when Hill came it was mainly white,

When Jimmy Hill was chairman in the late 70s he was seriously looking to change our name from Coventry City to Coventry Talbot. PGS (Puegoet) had taken over from Chrysler and the name Talbot became a brand Puegoet brand name. As PSA sponsored us Hill's idea was to go the whole hog and rename us...

it wouldn't just be switching to CU and dumping ccfc would it, ccfc would be more or less finished, maybe on the brink, that's the way we are heading, I say thank God for Cov United and the foresite of those setting them up. It has sisu looking over their shoulder any threat of liquidation or...

Obviously to another club if ccfc don't exist or are booted out of the Football League.

Where do you think? I don't think people realise the possible seriousness of the situation. We have no ground, talks from our landlords ain't gonna happen until legals are dropped apparently the case isn't happening until December and if they lose again ?Who's going to back down ? We know Joy...

If Coventry City Football Clib were liquidated that's the end of that name. Everyone saying ccfc won't be liquidated but at the moment who knows, this sisu outfit will do whatever benefits them and their business, that the moment they have to drop the legals, negotiate a new deal for the Ricoh...

Coventry United was set up in July 2013 when the Northampton issue was happening and liquidation was supposedly a real threat. The guys who set up CU did it definitely as a safety net so if ccfc folded we or should I say a re-launched ccfc in a different name wouldn't have to start God knows how...

They (sisu) obviously are confident of getting a stadium deal, does that mean they are dropping the legals then ?

Bigi needs a partner though, not sure if Vlad fills that part. I Rose might we will have to see about that one.

I'd offer it to Nasel Nigel.

The reason Coventry United was set up.

Get the management of the team right. Point in question is Burton Albon, come through the leagues on a third of our gates and at the moment not disgracing themselves in the championship. Personally I don't think TM has got it right on the field, anywhere near right. I think he needs to sit down...

We may be grateful then for the Coventry United safety net.

I think this is positive news, this debate can't solve anything but I keeps things in the public eye, not for us plebs but their are organisations who use firms like sisu. And sisu will not like their name dragged through the mud at that level, and nothing they can really do about it either...

We have the players to win IF the selection is right.

I think some sort of re-organisation will happen the question is how. The original idea I think was 5 FL divisions from championship to a division 4 with 20 teams in each, that I believe was rebuffed and back to the drawing board and the latest I heard was to have 20 in championship and 22 in...

Isn't there a big re-vamp of the football league and non leagues being proposed, I know there is a proposal for the FL to be extended from 92 clubs to I think a 100 and another division to be added to the three we currently have. As a result of that I would think the non league below will also...

We are very weak in that department now and will be weaker when McCann goes, can't blame sisu for that down to team building I'm afraid.
