    Coventry City v Wycombe EFL Trophy

    Jack Finch came on for Stokes in the last home Checkatrade match. He actually played well for the half he was on. However that was against a very young side. Jack Finch v Akinfenwa?

    I think most people make up their own minds. You would have to be pretty weak willed not to think for yourself and blindly follow someone telling you to do something.

    Idiots

    You keep using phrases such as "getting everyone wound up". You never give people credit for making up their own minds. It is as if we have zombie fans ( as well as a virtually zombie club) who will simply follow the latest edict from the Trust. Do you really think that people are angry because...

    Willis gone, Exodus begins!

    He went to school in Nuneaton. I think he was with Blues for a while but don't think he is from there. I think as a defender he was okay. Won his tackles and his headers. Not the best at going forward but probably younger and better than his likely replacement ( whoever that will be).

    It makes a difference because the media hear about it and it raises the issues which the FL the FA and Sisu would not like to be aired. The Government at the moment are taking an interest in football governance. If all CCFC fans sit on their hands and do nothing then the parties mentioned above...

    I think that some of this is about perceptions. The first two lads who came on it seemed to me to be heading towards the directors box where Tim Fisher would have been sitting . The first of the two certainly seemed to be gesturing and mouthing things in that direction. If he had wanted simply...

    Match Thread Northampton v Coventry Match Thread - Saturday 28th Jan

    Certainly didn't seem to want her picture taken at the court case, trying to cover her face with a brolly etc. I don't think she likes publicity at all. Keeping Sisu in the spotlight in a very negative way is about the most effective thing that has happened over the last few months. Not sure...

    I was in a the home area today. I didn't hear anybody around me who was in the slightest bit sympathetic to our cause before the flares were thrown. Lots of jibes about Sixfields being our home, What's it like to have no home etc. I didn't see any flare that went near anyone on the pitch. I left...

    I understand the frustrations of those at the match today. What do you suggest for an effective protest against the owners?

    You think they wouldn't be selling players anyway. What were the protests like when Maddison went last year?

    Protests#

    Listened to the phone in on the way home. Someone mentioned that any protests should be before or after games. Well I have been to both sit ins. The last one had about 30 people and would have made little impact. (Not a criticism of the organisers or the people who like me were there). I can...

    Great scenes in the city centre after the game. Could have been Milan!

    Coventry City fans to discuss possibility of supporter-led takeover

    We were averaging 12000 last season. Factor in the fact of Portsmouth' s recent successes in getting to the Premier League, staying there for a while and winning the FA Cup it is nor surprising that they retained supporters. You know our story. One success in 50 years of losing a lot of games...

    Coventry City fans to discuss possibility of supporter-led takeover

    This notion is just plain wrong. They are chalk and cheese. The Portsmouth version is about a club run by fans for those fans and for the greater community. They are open, communicative and democratic. They engage and cooperate with all agencies, businesses and the local community at large. They...

    Coventry City fans to discuss possibility of supporter-led takeover

    The only thing similar between ourselves and Portsmouth is the label that we are run at "Break Even". Their model of break even is a lot different to Sisu's.

    Coventry City fans to discuss possibility of supporter-led takeover

    The other club was Chester City. (Another CCFC) . He did actually say though that their fans were so thoroughly fed up with the strangulation of their club by the owners that there was virtually nothing left of the old Chester City and an AFC club was formed which quickly returned to the same...

    Coventry City fans to discuss possibility of supporter-led takeover

    This was mentioned last night. Reply was that they have spoken to Wasps about the viability of a rental deal. I think the outcome was that Wasps would be happy to meet and discuss a potential deal if the situation arises.

    Coventry City fans to discuss possibility of supporter-led takeover

    I can't believe that you truly think that. The position and outlook of the two clubs are poles apart. For a start their fans have hope. So do you think the Pompey "product" is the same as our " product". They are a league below us but I bet their fans are a lot more positive about things than...

    No one put their hand up to say they are renewing. I have to say I am not sure what I will do at the moment.

    Coventry City fans to discuss possibility of supporter-led takeover

    Pompey getting 16000 crowds in League 2 with 12000 season ticket holders and presumably a positive atmosphere about the place have far more chance of success than we have with our shrinking fan base. Both clubs are operating a break even policy but the Pompey version is a world away from...
