    Glad our fans aren't the manager...

    He's been here for 2.5 years, we've had plenty of sticky patches and we've continued to sing his name throughout. I wouldn't worry too much. The odd rant on Facebook means nothing. I'm not sure there is a manager in the lower leagues who has the sort of relationship Robins has with our fans...

    Trouble afterwards v Blackpool.

    I'm pretty sure he meant robbed blind by Oyston.

    Atmosphere at St Andrews

    I thought it was a bit flat today, which was a bit surprising considering it was the biggest turn out of the season, but absolute scenes at the end.

    Match Thread Coventry City vs. Blackpool Match Thread - Saturday 7th Sep

    It won't be over 7K, but the home turnout will be up on the last 2 home league games. Advanced ticket sales pretty strong apparently.

    Burton sold out

    Last few Burton tickets snapped up this morning, so won't make general sale.

    Hospitality match tickets seat selection

    I don't think you get a choice of seats in corporate. They're all central anyway with a good view, so wouldn't worry.

    Match Thread Coventry City vs. Blackpool Match Thread - Saturday 7th Sep

    Agree. The idea that after a below-par performance last week Robins will stick with the same line-up simply because we didn't lose seems odd to me. You play your best side, and nobody can seriously tell me our best side, from what we have seen, doesn't include O'Hare. Not sure both he and...

    Away Day Coaches.

    There are coaches run by the various supporters clubs and also the SBA is still running. But, I think there is a gap there and you should do it. Burton may not be the best game to start as allocation is limited, it isn't far to drive and the train is an option. Might be better to start with a...

    Match Thread Oxford United vs. Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 31st Aug

    Don't fancy us tomorrow at all. Oxford are a better side than their start suggests. Would take a draw now, and I rarely say that in this league.

    TV Game

    Fuck sake. Match day ruined. Loads of kids play junior football on a Sunday morning so I can see the crowd being a shocker. Sunday midday is possibly the worst time for a match to kick-off.

    The October rumour

    I don't think that's the prevailing view at all. I think there are quite a few who are prepared to accept an exile of one season if it means we return on our own terms, rather than cave in to the unrealistic demands that are being made to return immediately. Ultimately though, it cannot be a...

    Kit Sales

    That's clearly made up. Huddersfield ahead of Spurs? Behave. Bolton appear on the list but don't even have a shirt to sell do they?

    Match Thread Watford vs. Coventry City Match Thread - Tuesday 27th Aug

    I can't work out if we were naive or brave last night. Most lower league clubs would have set up with two lines of four and would have sat deep. We didn't, and tried to play, and I quite like that we did that. We got found out because we came up against better players ultimately, but we have...

    Oxford sold out!

    Club announced sold out a few hours ago. You do sometimes get the odd ticket emerge as tickets that were stuck in people's baskets become available again, but definitely none now.

    Season Ticket Offer

    Think they'll get a better return than that. ST sales have been suspended for a few weeks now, and they'll be a few that have attended a game or two this season who'll be tempted. Mate of mine is getting one. Suspect it'll be more than a handful who take up the offer.

    Homophobic chanting

    You know I was talking about the definition of the word and what it actually means. If you think that word has broader connotations, fine, but I think it devalues the word personally. I say this as someone who has several family members who are gay including my daughter. I know what real...

    Favourite football ground that no longer exists (excluding HR)

    Yeah, I'm a fan from the images I've seen. Some new grounds I don't mind, but this is pretty much exclusively down to the location. Rotherham is in a great location. The Emirates was built a short distance from Highbury, and even Leicester, despite the ground itself being bland and...

    Favourite football ground that no longer exists (excluding HR)

    Can anyone name a club where they prefer the new ground over the old one? I genuinely can't think of one.

    Homophobic chanting

    But that's just your opinion, it isn't fact. I thought the chanting was silly, immature and not welcome. Did it display a fear of homosexuality? That's a bit of a stretch. I think it is self-evident that people did not appreciate it and on the back of that, I think it is very unlikely we'll...
