    final game at the Ricoh..

    I cannot seem to be able to log in to my account to buy tickets for the Shrewsbury match. Does anybody have an inkling as to how well the tickets are selling? Really want to go to what could well be our last home game in our city, for a while

    CRFC vs Nottingham

    I went to the game today, a pity about the result (losing with the last kick of the game in the last second), and the officials were pretty rubbish. Richmond result meant that Cov were safe, irrespective of the score, but the 2 bonus points are some (scant) consolation. Good sized crowd of 2,802...

    If we move

    Wouldn’t really matter as red will win, but I would go blue anyway. Yes, both sides are against SISU, but at least when Ken Taylor was leader (I know Duggins is not up for re-election), the city as a whole seemed to be going places...even having direct links internationally. Now recent Labour...

    If we move

    I would likely attend 5 or 6 games, get the ifollow subscription, spend a bit more in the club shop. Then I would also look to go to 5 or 6 Coventry RFC games and spend some money behind the bar there and in their club shop. I feel this is slightly different to Northampton as we can now see...

    final game at the Ricoh..

    Would be great to get the stadium sold out for this...even better were nobody to purchase any food and beverage so Wasps can see what revenue they will be missing out on

    Another letter...

    I was in Singapore a couple of weeks ago and a local with whom I was chatting recognised the name of Coventry City and even knew which league we were playing in! So the comment about the name being recognised internationally does hold a great deal of merit. Although I did not ask, I doubt he...

    On the junction of Broad Lane and the A45?

    Woodlands

    One issue I do have with the prospect of a new stadium is what will it be used for for the other 330 odd days of the year that SISU were saying would bring in revenue all year round? Cannot see it being used for concerts or exhibitions with the RICOH already in situ. Could it maybe be adapted...

    Woodlands

    99% sure this won’t get built, but for those arriving by train, at least there’d be more than a capacity of 75 on offer. Also, just had a quick look at the Trainline for timetables and currently in the 2 hours prior to a 3pm kick off on a Saturday there are 5 trains operating...so lots of choice...

    Council Land List

    I assume the post refers to the land between the A45 and Rowley road, a lot of which has now been dug up in preparation for Whitley South. I think it used to be private farmland but was then acquired by Roxhill developments. I think the council are in some kind of partnership with Roxhill. I...

    Rarely mentioned past players.......

    Phillipe Clement My mum helped him to buy his house when at Coventry. I remember sitting in our front room and not believing my eyes that this professional footballer was in our house. He also arranged for me to have the autographs of the entire city squad of the time...I was so proud of it...

    Speaking of whom, he has just come out of the woodwork and posted a comment on the 2-0 U23 score line status update on the official Coventry City FC Facebook page.

    Stadium Location Options-Letter to CovCC

    I too sent an e mail to Cllr Duggins and to his credit, he replied within a few hours, early this morning. Further to his credit, he did reply with quite a lengthy e mail, which I feel would be unfair to post here. Cllr Duggins did state that he would be making a statement to council today, so...

    Council Statement due today

    Not sure who the land is now owned by as it was private farmland beforehand. The Gateway North/Whitley South scheme did mention Coventry Coty Council as an interested party along with Roxhill developers (owned by Sir Peter Rigby). The land falls under Warwick District Council jurisdiction in...

    SISU Statement - Article From Sky Sports

    My apologies OffenhamSkyBlue, you certainly did, as early as page 2. Serves me right for not reading the whole of the thread. Another advantage with this site is that the Council are proposing to develop a VLR system to Whitley so this would be a good form of public transport to get to the...
