    George Thomas

    Our academy graduates have benefitted from being given the opportunities to play first team football and should consider this for their long term careers. I worry that too many young players are railroaded by their agents into moves, which are only in the short term interest of the agent, who...

    Business Critical

    Yesterday emphasised the importance of the Academy to our future. During the 90 + 5 minutes there were 7 academy graduates playing. The club must invest into this with an "additional injection of cash"....not the current level, if we are to have a chance of climbing back up the leagues.

    Accounts Thread (Was called £1M pounds profit)

    Thanks to OSB for his review of the end of year company returns. I would be interested in others "take" on the direction of travel that this return shows. For what it's worth my take on it is: 1. The club is operating at a loss and can only maintain a positive financial position through sales of...

    Next Manager

    Until the clubs infrastructure is sorted out then any manager is going to struggle. There needs to be a comprehensive strategic plan developed and underpinned by a business plan that provides the resources for improvement in the club.

    Next Manager

    He could start by resigning!

    Angry

    It's been said by numerous people that we should make this personal to Joy Seppella. She is the architect of the clubs business plan. She's made our footballing lives a misery.

    Takeover

    If a potential investor was at the Ricoh on Saturday undertaking due diligence, then they may have counted a number of bibs, balls, goalposts, but no footballers!

    Next Season's Kit

    I agree with anything but all white. However, the all white kit might be most appropriate, as SISU have surrendered any pretence of having a competitive football club.

    Slade Rumour

    With this team we're likely to be slaughtered by either Luton or Oxford.

    2017 Coventry Bees - 2018 Sky Blues?

    Sisu capital could be renamed SISU Locusts, as they devour all assets placed before them!

    2017 Coventry Bees - 2018 Sky Blues?

    Coventry Bees have been kicked out of the elite league, due to issues over their stadium. Is this a precursor for the Sky Blues in 2018? If there is no deal at the Ricoh then the clubs existence in the EFL is at stake.

    The last hurrah of a once great club

    I worry that we will get thrashed by either Luton or Oxford at Wembley. We could be seriously embarrassed!

    Reply to a letter in the 'Independant on Sunday' May 95

    I remember Dougan being injured during the warm up and the start being delayed. Unfortunately, he was like Lazarus recovering and won almost everything in the air against Roy Barry and Bobby Parker. We certainly took a big following.

    Managers Since Sillett

    However, the governance structure and investment in the club maintained us in the first tier of English football. At that time, we had a SYSTEM in place, which compensated for some of the churn in management. The current SYSTEM has seen us relegated from 2nd Tier to potentially the 4th Tier of...

    Managers Since Sillett

    Exactly! If the System the manager is operating in is deficient, then the chances of success are remote. JH was able to enhance and develop our club due to clarity of vision and being given the resources to deliver. Under SISU successive managers have been operating on short term muddled...

    RCC

    That's hardly a surprise. We are the worst team in the division

    RCC

    Keepers are part of a defensive unit and we have not had a stable back four in front of any of our keepers. We change from game to game, it's ridiculous. I think RCC has the greatest potential, but needs support not abuse.
