imagine the misfortune of sitting next to Him at a match. Life surely couldn't be worse, Astute must be one of those Mother Theresa types.

Ainsworth is ok. Did his best to get as much publicity for case of the deplorable FL blindly supporting the unfit and far from proper club owners who wanted to get their hands on a publicly funded asset on the cheap. Anyone who thinks that Sisu owning the Ricoh would have helped the club is...

This is a footy forum used by five men and a dog and he pairs "self promotion" with "delusion". What a mug.

It's all your fault then. Big of you t own up.

I'm liking this wider perspective on here recently. "What do they know of Ingurlaand....."

This biz about territory is true. It's only moronic English footy that Obsesses about this

And one of the sure fire ways of maximising revenue is to cultivate close relationships with all stakeholders. Oh well, never mind.

A greater sporting profile for the city can only be a good thing for the community, local businesses and image of Coventry. It is precisely because Sisu did not embrace this concept that the football club has suffered. Nobody else's fault.

...Seconded.

Dyke recently spouting about chucking £250 million at grass roots! What a tosser. As if money could change culture

The lack of respect to the fans and true and responsible stewardship of our club by the current owners is revealing. Until they act in a way that we can unequivocally support they won't get any. It's that simple and has been ever thus.

No harm in comparing to one of our EU neighbours. Just for a bit of perspective. If this had happened in say, Palermo the following would have been likely.... 1) some councillors would have been set in concrete.... 2) The team would have armed escorts.... 3) Members of the judiciary...

Apart from the racism and disunity there's macho sexism and horrendous corruption. Berlusconi, despite being up to his neck in it, was elected three fucking times!! We've had political scandals here but its minuscule compared to Italy where the problem is endemic. People moan about the Council...

Lots and lots of reasons; cultural, geographical and historical. Where shall I start? With a joke. Northern Italians would say there are three areas of Italy; The North where you find Turin and Milan, then the Midlands, with Bologna and Firenze, and then there's Southern Italy with Rome. After...

Racism in Italy was a real eye-opener for me. Makes what goes on here seem like play school. Whenever I brought it up there'd be widespread reluctance to talk about it, most are in denial. It was inevitable that Balotelli would end up back in the uk.

About being in Wycombe ......and dying? Some are talking about this as a salvation and guaranteeing survival. Moreover, Rugger, unlike football, is not endemically tribal, or territorial, never has been. There are posters wittering on about Cov fans being "hypocritical" but they're comparing...

Yes, three years in Alba, near Turin. Also visited all the places you lived in. Loved Palermo. However, bot, living in Italy gave me direct insight into the nature and practice of hypocrisy.

But is CRFC pissed off? No Are Wasps fans pissed off at moving fro London or is it Wycombe? Not really. In no way was the move of Ccfc to Sixfields comparable to Wasps to Cov. The only difficulty I have with ACL and CCC is that they may have let personal contempt for Fisher and or...

Where did you live in Italy?
