It's a good plan, but it doesn't involve the courts. Are you sure you've thought this through? ;)

I'm not Jesus, Brylowes, I'm just a man. I don't go looking for trouble, in fact just the opposite. I'd expect to be able to go to a game without someone (another CCFC fan!) yelling 'scab' or other abuse at me. I don't know exactly how I'd react, but I've got a pretty good idea how some...

Just to clarify, I'm not hard GG, and I'm not some kind of keyboard warrior either. You won't see me calling out people here. I'm a grown-up, and I've seen plenty enough of fighting to know that I don't much like it and I'd rather avoid it. But I'm also a man, and I'm from Cov, and like a lot...

Fair enough. I've got to admit that it got right under my skin, this. Appreciate that you've been man enough to come on here and explain, I hope others see it the same way.

Defending calling people 'scabs' is just about the stupidest thing I've seen here in a very, very long time. I'm a peaceful man for the most part, but anyone who called me that might be on the end of something a bit more direct than an unpleasant name. I doubt I'd be the only one who felt that...

Indeed, the Sun was happy to take the piss out of someone's speech defect. That alone should tell you how clever and funny it is... Roy, bless him, not the best manager we've ever had, but as it turns out clearly an order of magnitude smarter than his successor.

I feel a bit sorry for him in truth, because there's no in my mind doubt that he really wanted the job and I thought he might make a decent fist of it. But how could he be so stupid (and greedy) as to fall for this? The bloke was getting millions to manage England, why get involved in any...

Then we could have flogged it to Wasps when the FA wasn't looking. ;)

He's from Canley isn't he? If Gilbert tells him to come then what choice will he have. :)

"Coventry City: A Club Without a Home is a journey through one of the most turbulent times in the history of the Sky Blues, told by those caught in the eye of the storm." Really? I wonder if it will interview the journalist who was sacked by the CET because he wanted to draw attention to the...

Can I just say though, that much as I'd like it to happen, I'm far from convinced by the rumours. I'm certainly not building any hopes up, personally.

Ah, the franchise model, where local authorities build stadia at huge public cost to entice franchise sports teams to switch locations. Works well for the franchises as they jump from city to city to get the best deals, less so for the authorities and fans. I'm just glad that we don't follow...

That's as elegant a summary as anything that I've ever seen hereabouts. Couldn't agree more.

No need to apologise peeler, no offence taken. Rugby fans may not be as tribal, but in my fairly long experience as a Cov RFC fan they still want to support their team on their patch. Wasps trampled all over that when they moved, and I can't forgive or forget that. Plus it seems, forgive me...

Didn't you read the T&C's before you signed up? The member with the lowest points is sacrificed on the altar to the Football League at the start of each season, this in the hope that the Gods will finally return us to the promised land of the Championship. If I were you mate I'd start posting...

That's exactly how I read it too. Maybe it's just me but I don't think either Bigi or the agent come out of these articles particularly well. If Bigi needs some sort of father-figure to put him on the right path in life and football, he'd be better off looking beyond agents who are primarily...

You're right, CCFC is in a decidely dodgy financial state. But by your logic, it would be OK for SISU to move CCFC to London, or anywhere else where they could build or buy a stadium on the cheap to secure the future of the team. As long as the team survived and maybe even started to move up...

Absolutely. The CET will hold their feet to the fire on this, I've no doubt. Thank God we've got a press that can't be intimidated or bought into silence eh, or there's no telling what might go on.

Surely no one here is saying that Wasps are demanding that SISU drop their legal action against the council in order to win a favourable planning decision (and hiding behind a shadow company to do so)? Good Lord, that would be an outrage. Poor, loveable, nomadic Wasps and the upright, open...
