    Club Statement regarding EFL vote and stadium situation

    You've misunderstood - I probably didn't write it clearly enough. I didn't mean that I think a large number of season ticket holders will go to St Andrews, but rather those that do would probably still do so, even if season ticket prices were increased.

    Coventry Talbot

    Anyone remember when Jimmy Hill was Chairman that he wanted to change the club name? A lot of our younger supporters may not be aware that JH was unpopular with a large proportion of our support at the time, who were not keen on some of his ideas like all seater stadia, our investment in US...

    Club Statement regarding EFL vote and stadium situation

    It's a hugely difficult balancing act. Given that we believe a large number of season ticket holders would buy them whatever, rather than following the Bradford model, the club might be better increasing the prices, even at St Andrews. I think season tickets last season worked out to the...

    Bright Enobakhare

    Strange think with Telfer was that after his 2nd game for us in a midweek home game against Man City, when Isaias played a blinder (some will remember), Blackburn offered over double the money we had paid Luton for him that Summer. Big Ron turned it down! Not sure about no talent either - I...

    Mark Robins

    Swansea never go for that type of manager. Robins is the kind of manger they look at so I can see a kind of logic in his position in the betting.

    Chaplin to Salford?

    To be fair to Culpin, he was being asked to step up to the top flight. I'm pretty sure he would have scored plenty in the league we are in now.

    Ideal Permanent Premier League

    I will put Cov in, although that is completely biased, and I don't believe a fan of any other team would include us. As I'm making up my own rules I will also leave out Villa, Sunderland & Sheff Utd just because I can. If only I had such power!! The other 19 would be Arsenal, Birmingham...

    Chant

    I remember an away game in the 80's (Luton i think), where the words 'Hey Jude' were replaced by 'Sky Blues' & the chorus was sang repetitively for over half an hour.

    Chant

    I think that was more a Liverpool/ Everton thing from what I remember - the anti Villa songs tended to be much more vitriolic. 'My old man said be a Villa fan', 'Hes only a poor little Brummie', ' The Villa sing, I dont know why coz after the match they're going to die' etc etc. There were the...

    Yes, otherwise we could have also had Big Sam

    Chant

    I vaguely remember a song to that tune in the 80's - can't remember the words though and haven't heard it at a City game for years.

    Best Cov Goalie to play in League 1

    By that token it would have to be Reg Matthews, given that he played for England while we were in the 3rd tier.

    Willis to Luton?

    Typical nonsense from you. He has done his bit for our club and doesn't deserve your disdain If he hadn't been good enough to take his opportunity the club would have binned him off without any second thought. He could have left to the Championship before now anyway when Rotherham wanted him a...

    I remember Camwell playing last game of season and had Robins praise ringing in his ears. It didn't do him much good!

    Bayliss

    I'm amazed so many on here are writing off Bayliss already. He is very young, and there were many instances last season where he took the blame for moves breaking down when it was often a case that a few of his more limited team mates were simply not on the same wave length. It's one of the...
