    Kevin Phillips

    AS much as I like the guys qualities I think it would necessitate a change in current style to accomodate him. He isnt going to have the legs to do what King or Juke do in terms of work rate. To put him in the current set up you would have to play him where McSheffery is, because as much as the...

    Season Tickets....

    Will renew mine but will leave that until May. Not because of the squad but I am wary of the financial situation. With that in mind i will maybe do it on credit card rather than their instalment plan. I didnt know the squad last year and renewed it is always going to change and this year it will...

    Poll: Should Andy Thorn be appointed as the next Coventry manager?

    As Paxman said slow down. AT isnt doing his chances any harm at all right now but there are some reasons why it might suit a lot of parties not to make an appointment until late May or even June 1- appoint now and the overheads will go up...... even AT will want more money for taking the...

    Cotterill slam's ref

    Just watched the match highlights. Both were clear penalties. Mullins was standing on the line, the ball was hit from a good 6 yards away if it hit his thigh i would be surprised but in any case he made a clear movement with his arm which stopped the ball crossing the line. The ref got it...

    Not as easy as 606

    As someone who had recent articles deleted by the mods at 606 i have to say I find this site much more to my liking. Yes it takes a little getting used to simply because it is more interactive, but perhaps that "fear" is of what has not been the norm at 606. I like the fact that the mods...

    Feeling Very Strange - I think its called happiness!

    For weeks my lad has been fearing his dad might renew season tickets, not wanting to suffer (like me) as he has for much of the season. Last night he bounces into the lounge big smile on face "dad when we getting the season tickets?" Thats the difference AT Sky Blues makes!!!! PUSB

    Are we safe now?

    cant see any of the bottom 3 winning the points they need to catch us. They have to win 4 and draw 1 out of 5 (or better)to pass us and we lose all 5. Plus we play Scunthorpe and Preston play Sheff Utd. So mathematically no we arent but the reality is 99.9% certain we are safe. PHEW!!!!!!!!

    Cotterill slam's ref

    from what i heard on the radio the ref seemed to be even handed to both teams, didnt get everything right but neither did the players. Commentary thought sending off was harsh but I think Mr Cottrill is forgetting they were 2 nil down at that stage. Yes Pompey came into it later but CCFC relaxed...

    Tonights game

    Great win and not the result I expected. Well done to AT and the team. Same players different style shows one man (plus his assistant) can make a difference. There appears to be belief in what they are doing and a freedom to express themselves. Yes there are a few dodgy moments defensively but...

    Article: Coventry City Release Images of New Club Crest

    Understand your point but all those comments could have been largely negated by a proper statement on it from the club explaining what I heard this morning but as they released the picture. Yes there would have still been sceptics but many would have welcomed the nod to the good times at CCFC...

    Article: Coventry City Release Images of New Club Crest

    According to the marketing guy from CCFC on CWR this morning the design is lifted directly from a match day programme that went out around 1960's and has strong connections with Jimmy Hill. The badge was never on any kit etc. It therefore links in with the new retro look kit that has been...

    Not coming home...

    We brought on a young kid with great talent. LIverpool will make him into the player. Thats not a dig at our academy system, I have been to watch the U18's play and was impressed by them. However instead of putting pressure on young lads to train with the first team and get three points...

    Article: Coventry City Release Images of New Club Crest

    I agree with rob9872. This was an opportunity to engage the fans missed. What I take from it is - "we will please ourselves like it or lump it" How long did we have the previous one for? Why change it ? In the photo it is quite strong but put it with the other ones say like on the Sky...

    Investors, The Arena, SISU and the squad for next season....priorities:

    Depends what your view of medium term is. KD made no mention of funds past the end of the season at the press conference. Potential investors are going to be few and far between without something to hang that investment on. Dont think that the private equity funds of SISU will have much stomach...

    Cranie

    Glad to hear Crainie wants to stay. Has been one of our better players with a great attitude since he got here. Very versatile and composed. Is good to see him getting more recognition because he deserves it. How long has he got left on his contract?

    King or Westwood ?

    Was one of those that was dead against MK coming to the club, still dont have a high opinion of him to be honest. However there is no doubt that the quality of his play is head and shoulders above the rest in the team. He works hard for the cause and has scored a few goals. He brings some...

    Thorn's chance stake a claim?

    Dont think they will offer anything just yet and if I was advising AT I would say wait see what happens in the summer. He has got the team playing better football and all credit to him. Has done a good job so far. We look good going forward and entertaining, although defensively not so clever...

    Just imagine...

    No not naiive but i do think that for whatever reason the objectives and how to get there were not as clearly understood as they should have been and not fully shared. I think both sides came at it from slightly different angles and what each thought they had was actually a bit different in...
