    Match Thread Shrewsbury Town vs. Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 22nd Dec

    I usually like to give a manager the benefit of the doubt on the basis that they know far more about football than me but I can't understand why we persist with just JCH up front. Its like he's setting us up to not concede and take a point or score on the break but we do concede and we can't...

    Match Thread Shrewsbury Town vs. Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 22nd Dec

    Says a lot that the team gets announced and still nobody has a clue what formation we will be playing!

    Supporters Forum groups pledge Ricoh Arena deal support

    Because it wasn't when they said the same thing last year. It is purely their decision, they can choose to offer a new deal or not. There is nothing preventing them from offering a new deal other than them not wishing to do so. Therefore it is perfectly possible for them to change their minds...

    Supporters Forum groups pledge Ricoh Arena deal support

    The trust doing some myth-busting was suggested on here a while back but members of the trust board took the piss on twitter and said the forum wasn't representative of the fan base.

    Supporters Forum groups pledge Ricoh Arena deal support

    Because they aren't doing something to change the situation unless you think them refusing to put their name to this statement is going to make SISU stop legal action.

    Poll: The trust - fit for purpose?

    This has been my issue for a while. Realistically, unless we move out the city which nobody wants, we have to play at the Ricoh so to resolve the current situation either Sepalla has to stop all legal action or Wasps have to agree to talks and a short term deal until it is all resolved. Given...

    Poll: How long will Trump be President?

    How on earth has anyone watched that and thought it was serious? On the topic of Trump see he's decided ISIS have been defeated and the troops are coming home. Didn't bother to tell anyone before he made the announcement. Only person that thinks this is good news and won't be a huge boost to...

    Things that annoy you

    People with kids in pushchairs who push them out in to the road when they clearly haven't checked to see if there's any traffic or not.

    Supporters Forum groups pledge Ricoh Arena deal support

    There was another group, don't think it was Manhattan, who the Telegraph reported at the time came out of a meeting with the council, got on a plane and were never heard from again! 7 prospective owners and the council puts off everyone but SISU, thanks for that.

    I keep seeing people on the news, social media etc saying you can't fire into the air to shoot it down so how is clay pigeon shooting a thing?

    Doesn't add up does it? Nothing happens without it being all over social media these days yet you can have a drone flying around all day keeping an airport closed and there's nothing.

    Supporters Forum groups pledge Ricoh Arena deal support

    Remember when then council leader Ken Taylor had a pop at one of the bidders, Shapiro, for wanting a longer lease. Outrageous request.

    Something doesn't quite add up about this. No way is it kids pissing about. The news coverage is weird as well, like there's something they've been told not to say. Only one conclusion.

    It certainly doesn't go to an AFC Coventry to stay in the league, it goes to the next team in line for example when Aldershot went bust there was still a team promoted but none were relegated.

    Wasps on the up? I hope not!

    The biggest crowds each season in the Premiership since Wasps arrived here: 2014/15 Saracens v Harlequins 84,068 2015/16 Saracens v Harlequins 80,650 2016/17 Exeter v Wasps 79,657 2017/18 Harlequins v Northampton 77,825 2018/19 Northampton v Leicester 40,013 In total attendance for the current...

    Wasps on the up? I hope not!

    Coventry City in the third tier with ambitions to be higher, Man Utd in the top tier playing European football. CRFC in the third tier (when Wasps arrived) with ambitions to be higher, Wasps in the top tier playing European rugby. Clearly no similarity at all. WTF, you are seriously trying to...

    Wasps on the up? I hope not!

    Are you mad? That's like saying if Man City started playing at the Ricoh it wouldn't have a negative impact of CCFC. They're going after the same fans. It was never going to be the case that overnight the 2K that turn up every week to the Butts would go the watch Wasps instead but give it time...

    Open Letter to Supporters

    Wasn't there a problem with the accounts at some point. Have a vague memory of that, something to do with everyone's quid membership should have been kept separate and not spent or something. Meant the trusts accounts were filed late which I seem to recall Fisher delighted in repeatedly pointing...
