    How can we put it right?

    The only alternative I can see breaks your constraints. Once SISU runs out of litigation options, if we are still running at a loss and SISU gives up, then it is possible that someone will take a chance and put some real money in. It could be a vanity project for someone but my preferred...

    How can we put it right?

    Given your constraints, the only hope the club has presently is within the youth team. If (two big ifs here), SISU can get the club operating * at a small profit and they then decide not to sell any special players coming through and go for promotion, then we could get a side together that got...

    The best finisher Pressley has ever seen

    Was he one of the strikers he fouled in the penalty box during his brief spell? I don't have the stats but seem to recall something like: Played 10, Pens conceded: 5, Own goals: 2.

    The best finisher Pressley has ever seen

    Can you imagine all the goals we'd score if we could just keep Miller and Madine in the same side? Two of the best finishers that Pressley has ever seen in the same 11? We'd be invincible, scoring from everywhere on the pitch.

    The best finisher Pressley has ever seen

    SP on Shaun Miller: "He’s a terrific finisher; in fact, one of the best I’ve seen.” SP on Gary Madine: " he’s one of the most outstanding finishers I have seen. " We are blessed to have had two of the best finishers that Pressley has ever seen at the club this season. One can only imagine...

    Were SISU offered the same deal as Wasps, Yes or No?

    No, you end off. I'm staying put.

    I'll kick off with two possible causes: 1. SISU 2. CCC

    Cause and effect

    Pressley: “For an hour the system gave us absolute domination and created a lot of good opportunities. We should have scored several more goals but that’s not down to the formation we were playing.” " some of our play was really pleasing, the attitude of the players was terrific and the pitch...

    Crowd today?

    I heard that the new goalposts are extensible in the corners, and that if you wait on 5 minutes after the final whistle you will see the groundsmen pulling the posts up to form the rugger ones.

    If the council brought in another football club....

    I hate to disagree with a musician I so much admire - let alone a dead one. I haven't posted anything serious here for quite a long time but I do feel strongly that the council has done nothing wrong. The council's sole responsibility is to the ratepayers of Coventry. It must not permit...

    If the council brought in another football club....

    If seven gnomes kidnapped you and made you watch back to back videos of Barnsley in their Premiership winning season, would you stop watching Cov and watch Bradford instead?

    Gary Madine

    Using your numbers, which I don't necessarily agree with: 20x4 = 80; 24x2=48. 80+48+10= 138. Unlikely to be in the top 200?

    Jacques Maghoma

    Do you think that there is a relationship between a player's ex-club and how well they play for us? If you find some correlation you should let the club know so they can exploit it, as I doubt any other club is using that logic.

    Gary Madine

    One could argue that he's in the top 100 players in his position in the UK. £250k per year isn't so excessive when you think of it like that. The 100th best derivatives trader in the City earns an awful lot more.
