    New Kit

    That collar’s decent mind.

    New Kit

    Personally not a fan of those sorts of polo shirt collars, or indeed any variant thereof. And buttons have no place on a modern football top. Much prefer a simple v like the bottom one. Would even go so far as to prefer round neck collars, but they need contrast or look like school PE t-shirts...

    Loans from one club, good or bad?

    Nah, just a hypothetical question.

    Transfer Rumour Owen Otasowie

    Absolutely, not sure anyone is expecting him to buy players. No idea where the suggestion originated (apart from this thread). He already has my respect for his contributions to our club for sure.

    Favourite City Photos...

    Yeah that, thought there were ones from different angle where you could see his face. I seem to recall being too busy going fucking apeshit at the time to really notice.

    Loans from one club, good or bad?

    Put the ‘friendship group’ in the cons then. Is it possible to have a season long loan with no recall in January available, as that would negate the risk of them leaving.

    Favourite City Photos...

    Trying to find the George Boateng vs Villa goal celebration where he kneeled down (ahead of his time clearly) and put his finger on his nose if anyone has it (google being crap on my phone, thought it would be all over his photo history)

    Transfer Rumour Owen Otasowie

    Could well have been, can’t find my copy of the book (think I read about it in “Staying up”??) and yeah there were multiple players bought. My (admittedly sketchy) memory of it was that Keane was the biggest deal, both in terms of outlay and profit. Wish I could find the book now...

    Season tickets at St Andrews (Trillion !)

    Season ticket for me and the boy. Moved to Birmingham 22 years ago (we live and learn) so was probably the only Coventry fan that was pleased by the announcement* Will wait and see what the eventual plans are regarding distancing, f&b etc (am hoping for no f&b, one way systems, all stands...

    Loans from one club, good or bad?

    He does, if the detail is accurate. So, 3 loans from one club? Wolves did take Giles back halfway through a season against the wishes of the club he was loaned to (and then he subsequently played one 12 minute cameo role for us in half a season), so can see that we might ask for some assurances...

    I believe it was Keane not Dublin ;)

    Transfer Rumour Owen Otasowie

    All good points, what’s in it for Mr Overson though? He must at least want his initial outlay back or have some other ROI. As much as he’s a (loaded) die hard fan, he’s not a mug and would surely expect something for his wonga. Very decent indeed if he’s just gifting all this to the club. All...

    Transfer Rumour Owen Otasowie

    A return to the ‘racehorse’ scheme that saw Robbie Keane spend a season with us before being sold for a huge profit that CCFC didn’t see a penny of... If true I wonder what happens to any sell-on profit.

    Woodlands

    I used to live in Pilkington Road (right next to Canley station). It was called Canley Gardens then, Beechwood I always thought was used by those who didn’t want ‘Canley’ in their address (understandable). Either way it’s a fair trek to the further reaches of the WU site.

    Request to waive NDA - email to Wasps, CCFC & Sisu

    My belief is that it is this that is the “threat to the future of the club”. They are being asked to waiver any future right to legal action — full stop. I have no idea if that is even legally possible? I mean, you can’t stop the CPS from prosecuting you for murder just because of a legal...
