    Broken man thread

    Ha. It was early 90's, so don't have it any more... We worked together and became mates. First time i met him, we started chatting about "where are you from etc, and he lived in Bournemouth. I mentioned that we had friends there that we had met on holiday in Switzerland in early 1980's, but...

    Broken man thread

    Mate of mine split from his wife (went back to an ex girlfriend...) and she wrote a 4 page essay on how much of a shit he was, and sent it to all their friends, including me. She didn't hold back, and listed many of his failings, some very personal of course, and finished off, by saying she had...

    Wembley attire

    So, apart from the club shop, who else is selling sky blue stuff for the occasion?

    Maybe Tim could have added that to his 3 points he wants..... Dropping JR2 is on the table. Now that may have ensured everyone he wants to be there attends....

    The Greyhound - Sutton Stop, Cov

    Went in the Greyhound about 10 days ago... just for a pint, so can't comment on the food.

    C-Unit Council

    Jan I think the discussion has been that people want CCC to take part, but the reason they may not do so is due to JR2. The pro's and con's of that are being discussed, mostly quite sensibly, apart from some that just want to pipe up and insult other posters. The other discussion is if TF is...

    Your most embarrassing moment at a football match?

    I was at the match too. My pal played for VS and I organised a coach from work for 50 of us to go see them. They did steal the win.

    C-Unit Council

    I agree about wanting all areas to be tested, but the problem I have with it is that I don't think JR2 will provide any answers, but will just prolong the agony for a few more years, and may see us drop into oblivion. Dropping the legals may actually switch that light on at the end of the...

    C-Unit Council

    Agree with this bit. Imagine if they did drop the legals. Wouldn't that then give much more optimism for a successful future for CCFC? and, in a much shorter timescale? It may not need mediation in that case, and perhaps you might then see an active CCC helping CCFC where they can. Nick keeps...

    Nope, it's definitely not ticket science... ;)

    C-Unit Council

    I'm on the fence on this mediation issue really. I can see how people think it might be useful for CCC to take apart, and how not doing so can be ammunition to SISU in their obvious PR campaign, but I also see there is actually nothing to mediate on at the moment, and would look to find the...

    Statement from Cov Rugby

    Jon Sharp quote “That would allow all sorts of things to go on in the stadium such as football, athletics and so on. We already have an agreement with Coventry United and Coventry United Ladies.”

    Mail today

    It does seem to come from people "who never read it" as well, so, an informed judgement by them then ;) I guess we should all read the sun or mirror to get the truth about anything and everything....

    Keep the Dream Alive

    I thought "go for it" was a bit weak, until the sky blue army sang it at Wembley. Not too many cup final songs sung by the fans I would guess, but ours was repeated many times. Worked in Brum in 87, so played it many many times in the office after the win. All the Villa Baggies and Blues fans...

    Mediation talks underway

    or this? ;) "Rumours former Coventry City chairman Ray Ranson had been involved in the Wasps takeover bid are understood to have been dismissed by council officers during last night's late-night briefing"
