    Sky Blues switch home clash with the Robins to Good Friday

    I look forward to the return of Christmas day matches my dad used to talk about. P25 W16 D2 L7 is CCFC record in Christmas day fixtures. Last was in 1959.

    What would you do?

    Play the glories at their own game. Ask what shirt it is. Ask what league they play in. Pretend you don't watch the Prem as you are not a TV armchair fan. No atmosphere. Ask them what other tele programmes they like.

    What would you do?

    If it is a holiday wear it but say you cannot talk about the club it's too painful and will ruin your holiday, look choked, get bought loads of sympathy drinks.

    The Battle Has Been Lost But Not The War

    It makes total sense for 100% of fans to voice the stance that they will not watch the city outside Coventry, even if you don't mean it. It's politics and it puts pressure on our beloved owners to think again. Otherwise you are like a poker player showing his hand. The message has got to be we...

    Kidderminster or Birmingham

    Kidderminster is even closer to me, 10 miles, than Walsall, 15 miles. So it will be much easier for me to join the protest OUTSIDE. Won't be inside.

    Breaking news

    Stuart, after all is said and done I think very few will follow the city outside of Coventry. Some are underestimating how many older supporters we have and how a line of trust has been crossed. Support is very loyal but it is not unconditional and I really believe no more than a quarter of our...

    Vote NO on Up The Saddlers.com

    We know what they think just by reading the threads. As many Saddlers are against as Sky Blues. It is always the case with online polls. They only give a snapshot. But they do allow the application of pressure. Politics and all we fans have just now.

    Vote NO on Up The Saddlers.com

    The Walsall forum, Up the Saddlers, has an open poll asking if they are happy with the idea of a ground share with CCFC. You don't have to have a log in just vote. Needless to say I have voted NO. Get over there and vote NO if you want to show support.

    Ah but ACL and CCC should have given the club the Ricoh for free because, er, because, give me a minute, it'll come to me. Because we are not going to be their cash cow any longer. They only invested a big button and, well, it's only fair that they should give the club it. Now. Or else. It will...

    Fixtures Tomorrow

    Precisely. I didn't go to Arsenal or Spurs or Man Ure. I did go away to Crewe, Walsall, Reading, Peterborough, Wolves, Blues, Forest in the last 3 years.

    There you go you see. You assert that it is inflated rent. Firstly, how can you be so certain what is a reasonable rent and what deals have been offered? Secondly, a whole new negotiation may take place in which a lower still rent is offered. But you've already decided it is inflated. Maybe it...

    It makes no difference as it is totally unnecessary and you underestimate the majority older age fans if you believe they will meekly follow. For many it was a real wrench to move to the Ricoh. They won't be moving again and will be lost forever. In 3 years time most will have kicked the habit...

    Fixtures Tomorrow

    If we draw a big club in the cup the ground fills up because the armchair Sky fans want to see them play. If it wasn't our dormant fan base it would be random glory fans of other teams. I won't be there unless it is at the Ricoh, even if it's Man Ure, Chelski or Real Madrid.

    Actually yes because the club can only grow if it has a dormant fan base to entice back. That will never happen if we move from Coventry. Would it be better if we couldn't ever attract big crowds? How so?

    Well an opinion about where CCFC should play does not really affect you like it does thousands of others. Surely you see my point?

    If The US Government And The Taiban Can Do It

    Who cares what ACL's business model is? I care what CCFC's is.

    Or when members spend all day slagging off posters on other forums then moonlight there to get a bite.

    If The US Government And The Taiban Can Do It

    I fear the same but surely SISU can see there is no future except liquidation in their stated plans? Maybe they can even engineer that to cover their losses against tax liability in other companies or something complicated like that. Otherwise it makes no sense to me and it's sucking all the...
