    Can anyone provide figures on PWDLFAPts for the time Stockdale was playing? I get the sense it "coincided" with one of our best periods of the season. But i'd like to know if we were *scoring* any more, or whether it was that we were getting results due to having a competent keeper who could...

    Match Thread Coventry City vs. Bradford City Match Thread - Friday 19th Apr

    They are a great club, whose fans despite their new German owners as much as we hate SISU. Zero investment in the team = relegation. I really hope the SBA don't rub it in their fans' faces too much if we beat them (as they are essentially down if they lose). There but for the grace of God, etc ...

    Portsmouth Away

    What's the betting that they announce on Saturday that there will be walk-ups available for away fans? At elevated prices, no doubt. They can't just randomly abandon their segregation strategy (unless it just involves them moving a bit of black netting and a line of stewards, of course)

    Silence Is deafening

    Well it's possible, and no disrespect to AStonesThrow but i'm afraid i doubt the rumour has any veracity. I would be thrilled to be proved wrong, mind you.

    Joey Barton

    The two are not mutually exclusive. I reckon it will turn out to be Barton who was arrested.

    Your Bad Days At A Match

    Went to the away game at the Baggies in 84/85 season. Some of you may remember a section of seating in the back corner behind the terracing in the away section. At the start of the game, there was a block of about 50 empty seats, into which (we assumed) a coach-load of SBA filed. When West Brom...

    Strange ?

    There is no such thing as a director of CCFC (in terms of limited companies) - Coventry City Football Club Limited and Coventry City Football Club (Holdings) Limited have both been dissolved. CCFC ARE Otium and/or Sky Blue Sports & Leisure. Otium owns the golden share.

    Legals Update This Week / SISU Lose chance to appeal

    How many more times? They have not LOST at the Supreme Court (merely been denied leave to appeal, as there is no arguable point of law of public importance), therefore they cannot go to the ECJ. That is my understanding - legal experts feel free to correct me.

    Your Bad Days At A Match

    New Den isn't much better. They will still happily beat the living shit out of anyone who comes near, no matter what the result of the game. And just as happy if it's the police. Seen TV programmes and youtube clips of them punching police horses, kicking police dogs, chucking paving slabs and...

    Your Bad Days At A Match

    There were definitely fences still up in 84/85 (probably came down after the Taylor Report into Hillsborough), but i recall a number of away fans "remodelling" the open end by liberating it of its seats in the early days - Newcastle and Leeds spring to mind, with most of the penalty area at that...

    Legals Update This Week / SISU Lose chance to appeal

    Tosser!! When is his seat in Henley Ward up for re-election?? Not this year - it is only Patricia Seaman (snigger) of the incumbent Labour group. But we need candidates to stand against him AND Ed Ruane, also in Henley Ward - both think they own the city!

    Designated Survivor

    I thought Series 1 was brilliant, edge-of-your-seat drama. Series 2 lost that for me (went all a bit "House of Cards" - don't know when to finish), so haven't seen it since.

    Legals Update This Week / SISU Lose chance to appeal

    There is no "arguable point of law" in their appeal. Therefore the appeal cannot be heard. It's my understanding that they could only go to the ECJ if the appeal had been heard in the Supreme Court (on an arguable point of law), but they had lost. I don't believe you can go willy-nilly to the...

    CRFC vs Nottingham

    Not to undermine what Cov are doing, which is brilliant, and it’s great that they’ll be in the Championship next season, but I was in Gloucester yesterday. Gloucester RFC were at home to Bath, their biggest match of the season, and I was impressed with the enormous buzz around the ground...

    I used to think he was a bit of an arrogant wanker, but he has genuinely been through it, and looked so happy to win today. Made up for the lad!!

    Thing being thrown at Sunderland

    I remember at Highfield Road when the Spion Kop terrace was there (pre East Stand), they put the away fans in the eastern end of the Sky Blue stand (both tiers). They had to put a safety net along the end of the stand as it became fashionable for the away fans to chuck stuff at the City fans on...

    An entertaining perspective on yesterday

    8 points behind Donny now. At the start of the season, most of us agreed that consolidation in L1 would be the most likely outcome, and we accepted that. To have come so close IS disappointing but not taking our chances in front of goal and going to sleep at the back, especially against lower...
