    Make Sure you have your tea before Bolton match

    That's a shame. It would be nice that to think that Tim would see it every time he came into Coventry.

    Is that avatar of yours from a real sign( hope so) or one that has been photoshopped?

    Home is Where the Heart Is

    From your name on here you would presumably like me go back a long way. You will remember that gates at Highfield Road woulid open at about 12.30 for. 3 pm. ( or 3.15pm ) kick off. The place would be heaving well before kick off with Radio Sky Blue entertaining people but other stuff going on...

    However, that is very funny!

    Home is Where the Heart Is

    We had season tickets in the East Stand for the last few top flight seasons. Two "fan" related incidents that I remember. On one occasion we were playing Villa and as usual Dwight Yorke scored for them. Some Villa fans were in that central area ( was it the Premier Club?) and stood up cheering...

    Coventry City Player Database

    It's interesting that in your table Mick Hartford is No 2 in the goals to appearances ratio. ( who is number 1, I thought it would be him?). I think he came on as a sub against Newcastle for the last 15 mins, scored the winner, got injured and never played for us again. A great idea I think...

    Home is Where the Heart Is

    If you go to away games, away fans always go in the same area, there is no family area. I agree about modern life and that it seems to be normal to hear swearing all over the place, TV included. I think things have changed over the years. I was reading in a magazine a while back that when...

    Cian Harries & Ben Stevenson????

    Which is why you wonder that there is not more action to secure the future of the academy. Maybe all the talks are ongoing and secret.

    Fair enough.

    Home is Where the Heart Is

    I would have thought it was the atmosphere in the stands that was the more scarey part for anyone there (not that I thought it was very scarey really). The pitch invasion was very peaceful, generally allowed by the stewards and police who didn't react to it and which was voluntarily brought...

    Home is Where the Heart Is

    My boys have always come to the games but I can understand why the language and attitude of some people who go to football would put off others taking their kids or going as a family. It's a shame as I think many potential supporters would be turned away. It's a real shame too that segregation...

    Home is Where the Heart Is

    I always feel that we have never ( may never now) seen the true extent of the Ricoh as a football stadium. The number of games that have had the "wow" factor could be counted on the fingers of one hand probably. ( Blackburn in the cup maybe, the two comebacks against Peterborough, Gillingham...

    Phone number for Sisu's office.

    No one said anything about being abusive to who ever answers the phone. No need for that. From what people who have called have reported back on here everything seems to have been very civil. I think the real point about the phone calls is that they are being made and that Seppala would know...

    Will you be renewing/buying your season ticket next season

    It is the fact that Fisher can't be bothered to do as you suggest and to act on all the other money raising ideas frequently mentioned on here which, I think, shows that he couldn't really care less. On the fan hand he bleats on about the need for 365 day a year revinues but then does nothing to...

    Phone number for Sisu's office.

    I think that anyone attempting to do something to highlight our plight should be applauded. Even if this is a call answering service I would imagine that they are talking to Sisu about the calls. It does seem that Seppala doesn't like the attention and would not like fans of "her" football club...

    It really pains me to put this up but -

    I think we could fill the Ricoh regularly if we were in the top division and doing okay.

    It really pains me to put this up but -

    Gates for some clubs are actually bigger now than they were in the 60s and 70s, Man Utd for one. This club has had so little success over 49 years that it has really only been a hard core who attend. A bit of success and some big games and the Ricoh would sell out with more wanting tickets. We...

    The number 6 was a Wolves player, Holsgrove I think.

    It really pains me to put this up but -

    I remember being in several plus 40k crowds at Highfield Road. Too many people quick to write off the potential that this club has.

    Home is Where the Heart Is

    I see people saying they are not going. I can't remember reading one where others are being advised not to go and certainly none where people are called scabs.
