    A nervy 2-1 win for City thanks to a 30-yard JCH piledriver

    Appeal Dismissed

    Hopefully this clears the way for an agreement on a short-medium term deal to stay at the Ricoh then. What our longer-term plans could/should be beyond that I really couldn't hazard a guess.

    Appeal Dismissed

    Given the lack of success via the criminal courts (and also quite a bit of the reasoning given by the judges in those cases, I don't really see hw SISU could reasonably expect success in the civil courts. However, I'm not a lawyer and there could well be other arguments they'd look to pursue...

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    There's surely no way the policy would pay out if you chose to visit Dignitas? You'd have to read the policy ultimately but it would seem far too open to abuse otherwise.

    Appeal Dismissed

    Ah right, didn't know about the fines/damages distinction. From what I understand the difference in other cases has come down to the requirement for 'proof beyond reasonable doubt' in a criminal court vs a lower threshold in a civil court. I agree that it seems unlikely they could win damages if...

    442 formation results over the 4231 isolated system

    Our biggest problem with 4-2-3-1 is probably that we don't have a player that suits the '1' position very well. I think both JCH and Chaplin need another forward alongside them to be most effective. Stick with 4-4 fucking 2 and get Tonka on.

    Appeal Dismissed

    I'd have to look into it to give an informed response but given that there have been fines dished out to people who were not found guilty in a criminal court I suspect SISU could take this to them regardless of the JR outcome.

    Walsall Away Part II

    I'm planning to, hadn't been keeping an eye on the dates for ticket sales though so I suppose I should get on with it!

    October Manager Of The Month

    It's probably something rooted deep in the human mind and linked to needing to feel a sense of control over events. Was it Paul Ince that always used to put his shirt on in the tunnel?

    Ben Foster is from Leamington if that's close enough!

    Player ratings

    Yeah I'd agree that a key would be really, really useful. I use the old 'Champ Manager' approach where players start at 6 and therefore anything below that is a 'bad' game and 6 is basically bang average (and likely to get you dropped). Ratings of 5 indicate having had a notably poor game...

    Appeal Dismissed

    I think it's understandable to be concerned what they think given their status as landlords to CCFC as it could impact on their approach to extending our tenancy. This isn't the same as saying they're right to boot us out, it's just a major source of concern to a lot of people I think.

    The 10,500.....

    You're right, i'm definitely not! Im clearly a bit guilty of basing that post on my experience since the 90s. I supose the 'well supported' element would have to be looked at relatively, were the crowds in 67 generally amongst the top clubs at that time?

    The 10,500.....

    I think 10-11,000 is disappointing if you consider the potential we should have. However it's probably not bad for the league we are in and the level of ill feeling the owners have generated within the city. We have never been a well supported club (given the size of the city) and I think that...

    Burge - 8 saved well when called upon and generally looked solid Thompson - 6 played well considering I think he looks more of a centre-half than fullback. Few errors but not much going forward either. Willis - 8 Dominant throughout and made some crucial interventions at times Davies - 6 Solid...

    For a moment I thought Coventry City legend Fabien Debec was on his way back.
