    Should Mark Robins be sacked?

    I don’t like games like this as every bad run has to come to an end sometime. They will beat someone before the end of the season. We need to make sure it isn’t us.

    Trust open meeting - 14th March, 7:30, Ricoh

    As they are still putting money into the club (losing money), it makes their decision not to negotiate on the sale of the club even odder. It also does seem to indicate that the legal action is their only strategy for holding on to the club.

    Youth players signing new deals

    Didn’t the clubs agree a fee for GT? Didn’t think it went to tribunal so therefore maybe got a bit more.

    Trust open meeting - 14th March, 7:30, Ricoh

    The main thing I took from the meeting last night was that Boddy, if he was being honest, has nothing to do with anything outside of the remit of CCFC, doesn’t seem to have a foot in the Sisu camp in the way that Fisher does. That said he is still a Sisu appointee and tows the party line in a...

    Ken Dodd.... rip

    This was a few years before my time. However I have read about him coming onto the pitch at Highfield Road before that game. He took his coat off to reveal he was wearing a City shirt which obviously brought cheers from the City fans and boos from United. He then peeled off the City shirt to...

    The problem is that performances do matter. The games against Forest Green, Colchester, Wycombe and Barnet have all been “toss of a coin games”, games that could have gone either way, with two going against us and two for. We need to be better than other teams, not just the same as they are. If...

    Held the ball up well, won headers, brought others into play. All the things he has done well for most of the season.

    We certainly looked more of a threat when he came on at Wycombe. He did more in his few minutes on the pitch than JCH did in the rest of the game. I am not having a go at JCH but I would like to see more impact on games as well as his goals.

    Player of the season so far

    I agree with a choice of Doyle or McNulty but, while not saying he is the POTS, I disagree about Willis as I think he has been pretty consistent all season and would say he is the best of our 4 centre halfs, possibly followed by Davis.

    Performances have been no better than the loss at Forest Green. Arguably we played better than we have in the last few games at Colchester and lost. (The performance against Accrington was the worst of the season in my opinion as we didn’t even compete). I think we have battled in the last...

    I wanted to complain yesterday as my son was searched and I was allowed straight through. Must be agest and a violation of my human rights surely?!

    I thought JCH had a really good game at Brighton but have been disappointed with his performances since. The one area in which he is an improvement on Biamou is in goal scoring. For this I would keep him in the team ahead of Max. I don’t think he is as good in the air or with the ball at his...

    Match Thread Coventry City vs Barnet Match Thread - Saturday 10th Mar

    I’ve parked in there 3 times this season. Each time I’ve bought something £50+. Twice I have had a letter coming through saying I have to pay a fine. Each time I have taken a photo of the receipt and emailed it back and heard no more. The bad thing is that on their letter with the fine they make...

    Now that I come to think about it....

    On about Akpon. He played a few games at Northampton didn’t he? I watched us away that season but can’t remember him playing.

    Now that I come to think about it....

    I liked Alex Nimely. He didn’t score enough goals but I thought he was a good player. I never saw the other guy play.

    Any update on baker?

    Just found a few highlights of the game on Youtube. I had forgotten that they were playing in the green and black away kit, our best away kit I think. I would like to say that Willie Carr got the ball and that Colin Bell went down too easily for the penalty, but in reality looked a pen.

    Any update on baker?

    No but two great games. In the home game we were a goal down with Jimmy Holmes also being sent off. We managed to turn it around and lead 2-1 going into the last few minutes when the inevitable equaliser came. The replay was exactly a week later and I sneaked my transistor radio into college to...

    Any update on baker?

    Maybe not! I had started work at the Alvis in 1973. Remember the three day week very well. That included electricity cuts at certain times, no TV after 10:30 at night and also early kick offs and no evening kick offs so the floodlights wouldn’t have to be used. I remember our league cup quarter...
