    Video Coventry v Oxford U

    He did not "do well to get to the first attempt" Look again. Basically a nothing special header, poor footwork/decision making as he should never find himself backed into the goal on that occasion. Because he was, he flopped forward trying to keep ball out and spilled it forward. Nowhere near...

    Tim said we are moving to rugby

    This if true would be heartbraking. Live in Rugby, played at Butlin Road for VS. Never ever thought I'd be going there to watch City. Ground is decent for the level they play at (Currently Step 5 of non league - equivalent to Sphinx/Cov Utd) BUT- access is poor, one very narrow (Butlin Rd)...

    Match Thread Coventry City vs. Oxford United Match Thread - Saturday 23rd Mar

    Seen it a lot this season. Ok 1st half, sussed out second half. Out ran, out battled and out thought today. Although still fine margins. Shot off line 1st, hit woodwork too. Good chance 2nd from Thomas....very good save but shot telegraphed.... and we concede a poor goal from a set peice of our...

    Match Thread Coventry City vs. Oxford United Match Thread - Saturday 23rd Mar

    In the past, that would point to a nailed on away win! All the dreaded combinations available too... ex city player to score (Ruffels - probably hasn't scored all season too!) and a bigger crowd too....!!! Have times changed though!!!??? Hope so!!!! Can't (don't want to) call it!!!

    EFL Stadium Vote

    Yes Nick. Sure I read something that the EFL had asked the Trust (or vice versa), after their meeting on Thursday to lobby the fans regarding this situation. Looks either way that it has come about as a result of their discussion. The fact that on twitter The trust account has liked a...

    EFL Stadium Vote

    You can't just "take the club non league" The club more than likely won't get expelled from the EFL. If they did, then they would have to apply to join one of the non efl leagues below L2. Pretty sure there are some rules about how far down that has to be too. Possibility for non league to...

    Head of Recruitment Interview

    Worry is that you can identify targets and make plans but if the club aren't playing at the Ricoh then things will certainly change. If groundshare, goalposts will move massively (no pun intended) and will have to factor in reduced budget (lower crowds) and less attractive venue (unless maybe...

    Bakayoko/Chaplin

    Still don't think we have played to Chaplin's strengths. Apparently more of a poacher ( although his finishing would suggest not.... probably low on confidence though) Bright in the 10 spot has done ok. Would still like to see bayliss further up but then you'd have to sacrifice something else...

    Breaking- New Consortium Bid

    Funny you should say that! Heard today from (pub talk that somebody who knows somebody who's company made the olympic torches - yes, convoluted? and my mates mate said etc etc) that Richardson is part of the consortium. Make of that what you will. Is that even possible?

    Crowd on Saturday

    Under Mowbray, there were a few gates around 17k after Christmas, think Burton one which was a defeat, hovered around that or decent gates for a few games but results were becoming inconsistent and we were falling away just before Burton if I recall. A lot of water under the bridge since then...

    Match Thread Coventry City vs. Oxford United Match Thread - Saturday 23rd Mar

    Not going to be easy, especially taking into account our ability to unintentionally keep the opposition in with a sniff despite dominating. Need to be on front foot from the off. Regarding selection, Robins will have had them watched and if thomas is injured he'll select accordingly. Personally...

    CCC, SISU, Wasps

    It is the Council that are the worrying aspect in this...and they are dragging Wasps along with them. It is obvious that the Council hate SISU that much that they are willing to see the club, CCFC suffer to spite them. That is the most worrying thing. (have heard it in the past verbally and it...

    Council Statement due today

    Thought i was fairly up to speed with coucil shenanigans, but why is mentioning about SISU asking about sites previously making him look silly?

    Council Statement due today

    It's in Eastwoods interview with CWR. Roughly that if it goes the wrong way it will impact them (paying back money/compo to SISU regarding dodgy deal CCC did with them for stadium) and he would not be doing his duty as a CEO (?) if he let this happen. Underlying reason... WASPs in bed with CCC...

    SISU Statement - Article From Sky Sports

    Yes! Read Les Reid's tweets/ uncovered emails. Why? Because they despise SISU and there are statements made verbally to people mentioned on here, that they will never deal with SISU, SISU will never get their hands on the staduim etc.... So this statement puts the ball back in the councils...

    "We know that the Sky Blue Trust has met with CCC/Wasps behind closed doors"

    Possibly. Although has it ever been actually agreed on here that this has happened. (I honestly don't know). Thought it just further highlights what you and others have said about the trusts possible agenda and not being independent from all sides. And hence again their reluctance to support...

    "We know that the Sky Blue Trust has met with CCC/Wasps behind closed doors"

    Taken from "Drunken Wasp" forum.... Interesting! 2. Untrue. I see it more as a willingness to enter such discussions if the ownership changes, perhaps as a result of a Wasps-friendly consortium taking over. We know that the Sky Blue Trust has met with the Council/Wasps behind closed doors and...
