    John Sillett Interview

    We sold out the away end and Villa wouldn't give us any more tickets. Someone from CCFC,maybe even Howe, suggested we should go in the home end and there was probably around 1,000 in the corner at the start of the game. Weren't they all moved to the away end after about 5 minutes?

    John Sillett Interview

    Wasn't there talk of Regis & Peake getting involved with Sillett? The memory of Don Howe sends a shudder down my spine. The loss at Villa on the last day of 91-92 when we were fighting for survival is up there with the worst performances I have seen as we lacked fight, committment & effort and...

    John Sillett Interview

    We watched it back a couple of times and it didn't come a cross as humorous, if that's how he meant it then I apologise. I'm surprised nobody else saw it

    John Sillett Interview

    I agree Butcher was a disaster & I think we paid him 2 wages as a player and a manager which he refused to re-negotiate when his playing career was over, after 5 games ffs!!!!, which led to Butcher going. I don't agree that Sillett's sacking was the catalyst for the position we find ourselves in...

    John Sillett Interview

    Sorry if there is a thread already about this but I couldn't find it. On my way down to Wembley I stopped over at my friend's house in Rugby and he had recorded a piece about Coventry at Wembley on either Sky or BBC Midlands which I don't have up here and it included an interview with John...

    Head of recruitment

    Wasn't Fleck's contract up he turned down the offer of a new contract because he wanted to play in the champonship & then he joined Sheff Utd? They obviously offered him more money but we couldn't give something away that we didn't own

    Claus Bech Jorgensen

    We were in Subway afterwards and in the queue in front of us was Claus with his 3 kids, all wearing Coventry shirts. What a nice guy he is? I have seen him before at a couple of games but does he go to all our games? He only played just over 50 times for us and had longer careers at other clubs...

    What to do

    @Essexyellows - I thought you played well but just took the wrong option a couple of times to which I and around 44,000 others are eternally grateful. Good luck in the rest of your season

    32,000 sold already

    Is that a direct quote from the old Spurs chairman Irving Scholar? I seem to remember him wanting to turn WHL into executive boxes when SKY was starting out and the real fans could watch the games at home

    Oggy

    He was a great goalkeeper but that doesn't make him a great coach. Many examples of great player's who never made it in any coaching or managing capacity

    Oggy

    And you know that we sign players no-one wants for definite? Mowbray spent ages chasing players at Championship clubs that didn't want to join us cause they could earn more elsewhere and ended up having to sign what was left. Oggy was a great goalkeeper for us but he was not the best kicker and...
