    Just how much did our shocking start cost us this season

    The hyam sale was certainly costly. It meant that when Fadz was injured we hadn't no experience next to Doyle and Panzo to help them along. We'll still need to spend to replace him whatever happens next week..

    Is Tim Fisher the best chairman we have ever had?

    Until recently when the debts were beginning to mushroom they did very well to run a sustainable business. The alternative was going bust, lets face it. Not what people wanted (to say the least) but the council sold our ground without due diligence and that was the reality of the situation.

    Coventry City v Luton Town - Championship playoff final - 27th May 2023 - Wembley Stadium

    Sunderland bossed Luton for about an hour in the first leg. No reason at all why we can't so the same.

    A huge gamble bringing in anybody who isn't match sharp at this stage. Sheaf more so as he's prone to the odd howler anyway. Having said that he might have to - a lot is lying on the fitness reports I think.

    Nobody wants to deal with their mortgage issues at a bank with few staff. It's like trying to get hold of a real person at HSBC today, it's become the norm now but it wasn't then.

    Yesterday was disappointing, especially the first 25 min. We were lucky to escape but we did. Robins said the same. It's time to move on

    Sure but he was responsible for sacking a whole load of staff and eventually waiving his fat bonus cheque under pressure, while the tax payer was gifted the toxic debt and the customers 'all' moved their mortgages. This I think is part of the strategy towards a hostile takeover of the club, at...

    That's what they thought at Railtrack before the Hatfield crash. They were criticised heavily for having no engineering expertise on the board. You are right though the lessons have not been learnt re corporate governance..

    Why aren't game 2s at the weekend? Is it just for ticket sales etc?

    To the Godden knockers we need to remember that it was his worldie a few weeks ago that put us in playoff contention in the first place.
