I still think the majority of footballers rule with their heart not their head, which still makes us an attractive proposition. If we can offer the same wages, then I think most players would still choose us, if only based on our history and fan base.

The fact we are Coventry City in the third division. If you're a third division standard player, you'd pick Coventry over most other clubs at that level regardless of the off the field matters.

SISU own Coventry City Football Club, they are inherently linked with us. If they own the stadium, then we own the stadium. If SISU owned half the stadium we would not pay rent, it'd be like transferring £100 from your savings account to your current account. Were they to ever sell the club...

are we secretly building this stadium? Would ACL offer such a rent deal if we were planning to leave the Ricoh in four or five seasons time?

Dongonzalos I take your point, and I agree it seems a pointless venture when there is a world class stadium already in the city. However, I don't believe ACL want to sell their share in the stadium, at least not at a reasonable price, and SISU do not want to enter into a rental agreement. It's...

I cannot, this is my opinion.

How do you know SISU cannot afford to build a new stadium? If the decision is seen as economically rationale and is supported by their investors then it might be viable. What they won't do is continue with a rental agreement that is unsustainable, or pay over the odds for a share in the Ricoh...

Due to becoming generally disenchanted with all things Coventry City, I have avoided this forum for a good few months. However, I have just read the entire thread created by the user I shall name, 'Coffee', and thought I could review it's contents for my own understanding and possibly...

The teams just relegated definitely have better players (albeit they may yet lose them). Regarding strikers, just off the top of my head Cassidy and Griffiths both at Wolves, Sinclair and Gayle at Posh and Baldock at Bristol City (one or two debatable). Think we can look forward to a very tough...

Leon Best vs. Portsmouth in the cup, or Mifsud against Bristol City I think it was

Gunnarsson was unbelievable in his first season, easily the best teenager I've seen in a city shirt. I remember Blackburn away in particular, 2-2 draw in the FA Cup and he absolutely dominated them. Absolutely agree that it went to his head a bit, but I think he appears to have settled down once...

unbelievable passion

History shows new owners want to make their own appointment

Where have you heard that!? I'd imagine this season has surpassed his wildest expectations. If anything he'll make a move to a championship side, having raised his profile a lot this season. Not to mention the improvement he will have made over the past 12 months will mean that if he is to...

Potentially, however whilst Messi and Ronaldo stand out as a clear #1 and #2, I think there's a small group behind them (Iniesta, Xavi, Bale, Suarez, Schweinsteiger, Pirlo, Falcao, Baker) all of a similar ability. However Bale is the youngest of all of them and I would say he has the potential...

Understand that McSheffrey is often disappointing, but he's contributed 7 assists this season, and as a winger I think that's a fairly decent return, and our alternative for the majority is fleck, who's woeful

His reputation is terrible, so on that grounds absolutely not. However he is not shit

The difference is Bournemouth and Preston sacked their managers so were more prepared to find a new one, in fact I suspect both Grayson and Howe made themselves available to the club before the previous managers sacking..
