    Council helps football club

    The problem for us is Wasps are a top team, they are marketable, they have a viable plan and good PR. Also the Ricoh is a very good stadium and has potential for development and increased profitability. Being bitter resolves nothing. But a successful football club would blow Wasps out of the...

    11th Best Badge in the World

    Ironic the civic and heraldic emblems incorporated in the badge. The badge really roots us in the community...yet the club seems to have drifted from these roots. Time the club was back in the heart of the community and the hearts of the community. Best badge in the world by the way.

    Norwich

    I agree with most of this. I don't think Coventry people are tight, they just go down the road a few miles to spend the cash. Coventry reflects the people who have to spend the little money they have there. We still have a lot of poverty in Coventry,,,a hangover from the late Seventies. Some...

    We need a win....even if it is ugly.

    Where has all the money gone???

    No not a twerp. But we are hamstrung....fed up of discussing politics...fed up people hinting at things. We are up shit creek short term and long term. Somewhere in there is the club I support, which Mowbray is trying to manage. We are an average League 1 Club with an average budget trying...

    Where has all the money gone???

    Nice vague statement that fits almost any outcome. So worthless.

    Where has all the money gone???

    I would agree, but some of our recent transfers (post January) do seem to have a longer view. But you do need some luck with how players turn out and others developed. It takes several seasons to build a successful team.

    Where has all the money gone???

    Possibly, but it depends on the adaptability of the player. How he expects the front three to interact. He may want them stretching it and playing like wingers? Is the current formation just for now? We are certainly missing 2 or 3 players. Yes we would like the squad to have a full pre...

    Where has all the money gone???

    I don't know whether it "is probably acceptable (budget) to give League 1 a good go?" That would depend on several factors: 1. How you rate your base squad. 2. How you rate your youngsters and how you see them developing (realistically). 3. Timeline for bringing in quality vs unrealistic fans...

    Seppalas House

    Seppala can't get her house in order that is the problem. She gambles (she would say shepherds) with other people's money and charges a fee. She is no big deal.

    Match Thread Norwich v Coventry Match Thread - Tuesday 23rd Aug

    Did we double up on him last night, or did we just let him get one on one with space behind? He also might of developed whilst at Coventry which was the point. It remains a fact some of his performance were piss poor last season. There was also a handful were he looked excellent.

    Where has all the money gone???

    That budget shortfall was/Is an embarrassment the amount of time Waggott, Mowbray/Venus took to work everything out, then there was the meeting with the financial expert Seppala to check it all out........totally incompetent. In a normal business Seppala would have been sacked by now...

    Stadium deal ends in 2018.

    I will stick with how about SISU find a solution. It is their investment or lack of it after all.

    Stadium deal ends in 2018.

    But that is someone else finding a solution. How about the owners either striking a deal, or as they have consistently threatened to do (without showing any progress) going it alone.

    Big mistake...

    Should a realistic expectation be automatic promotion?
  18. Hobo

    Big mistake...

    That isn't the point people are making. Early form only helps with points accumulated, it doesn't help with the promotional run in. Post Christmas form accumulates points, but that form can also be inspirational in the promotional run in. It is like good runners tend to set the pace towards...

    Twitter rumour

    I don't think it is bitterness, some fans saw him for what he is a promising youngster with flaws. Yes his first few senior appearances were very good but that can soon unravel. His injury was unfortunate last year but not unusual. Still had a lot to learn and prove. As Mowbray said, he has...
