    Barton i just trod in something

    I just find it odd that anyone would start a thread on a player who played only the first half in a match in which the whole team was garbage. Especially as he was no worse than at least 7 others. it looks like scapegoating to me. Missing the point that all were poor in that first half.

    relegation

    If we lose all it takes is Notts co to win and Crewe to avoid defeat at home and we're down. if I was into betting I'd grab that bet mentioned ... Very generous odds.

    Barton i just trod in something

    Pleased you agree that JOB gets away with stuff.He was zero goal threat today. He only got a few crosses in when he dropped back to right back. BTW. If Barton had had the shot 20 yards wide JOB had in the first half he would have been slaughtered. bit unfair to count goals when Barton has...

    Barton i just trod in something

    I still can't see how JOB gets away with garbage but everyone jumps all over Barton. Hes one of those players who when a pass goes astray or short gets blamed whether he was the passer or receiver.Be honest most of our fans think that. Example was when he played the ball back to JOB on the edge...

    new kit details

    Man City always had white shorts so our kit didn't resemble theirs until they decided to copy our shorts colour.

    Player ratings v Colchester

    What's more worrying is how awful Willis is playing. Every time the ball went near him it was heart in mouth time. Mowbray saw it too which is why he put Phillips on to double up there. This was a good move and steadied the ship. i speak as someone who thought Willis looked really solid at the...

    Player ratings v Colchester

    JOB did nothing at all in second half. As stated 2 slide rule passes from Barton, both would have resulted in goals if we had a decent striker. I guess we notice different things. Barton did not have his best game, certainly, but his contribution was decent.

    Barton was as good as Fleck and better than JOB and the awful Willis.

    The Pressley Myth

    Any replacement would have a short term bounce but it would be the same dodgy wine in a different bottle ... It might appear better for a while until that aftertaste hits.

    Is it time for "we want Pressley out " at matches ?

    Pointless chant IMO. Owners won't take any notice anyway. SP has a lot of blame but the majority of blame lies with our owners who simply don't care. changing the manager might shake up the few players we have left that are any good but the real problem is the players and the club's policy of...

    I think councillors are unpaid and can only claim expenses. before anyone jumps in these are audited and the amounts published, I believe.

    Question: If we were to return to the Ricoh....

    Yes. I would buy a 10 year ticket with cash up front if they return our club to Coventry.

    Realistic free transfers

    Stating the obvious but we need to remember that if players are out of contract they are on, not 5k or 8k or 10k per week, they are on zero. They, therefore, have to negotiate the best they can get. For that reason many will have to take anything they can get in a buyers market with dozens of...

    Sky Blues fans could help with the latest Hillsborough inquiry

    I was there right up against the fence to the right of the goal as you view the pitch. We got crushed several times but the pressure was relieved just before it got too much to bear. Quite scary actually but we were young and this was not as unusual experience as younger fans today might not...
