    Video Bryan Richardson Interview | Arrival and Early Days

    Viewed the clip with gritted teeth (the few I've got left that is!) over his custodianship only to find I've been drawn into a behind the scenes serialisation of our demise. Not wanting to judge too quickly though so I'll wait for the finish. IF wheeling out Richardson helps to bring about...

    Robins speaks !

    With all the adversity seeking to intentionally or accidentally destroy our club coupled with a fractured fanbase, these words are a tonic of hope. It might not be of the Churchill ilk but the rallying sentiments are something every Sky Blue supporter can surely get behind. We can do nothing...

    Saturday, 3pm, Jimmy's Statue

    Hoping for an effective and noisy protest from all who love the Sky Blues today. I really wish I could be there to add my mardy tones to the occassion but it's been pointed out I will not make it back for the wife's birthday bash this evening. Even after faithfully promising to break all speed...

    Back your football club

    Absolutely! Didn't go to Northampton on principle although knowing what I know now I may well have done. As soon as the ground is sorted I will be buying my ST to support the club.

    It surprises me how poetic I can get when I'm raging!! :emoji_rage:

    Wasps pull out...

    From conception to near expulsion the Ricoh Arena has been one long nightmare as far as Coventry City FC are concerned. It's never been our true home and never will be by the looks of things. Everytime we get a little bit of good news about the football it is always watered down by the off field...

    Worst Away Days

    Chelsea in our relegation season from the Prem. We started off really well until a through ball had a young Chris Kirkland rushing off his line to make a save at the feet of Hasselbaink. Who instead of trying to beat the keeper thought it better to engineer the merest of touches which caused...

    Worst Away Days

    I'll never forget that one, my nippers were fairly young, under 5 I think. Anyway I decided it would be their first away game. For some reason I put them in the car with no thought of the weather and it was bitter. We got there late just in time to hear the first goal go in. Within 10 minutes of...

    Today’s games

    Absolutely gutted! I really hate hope! :emoji_rage: Still if we beat the Shrews and Donny 6:0 we have a chance!

    Oggy Retiring

    Well that's another junk of my late teens disappearing out of football. Hope there is an ambassadors role of some sort waiting for him. Still remember that unbelievable save he pulled off from Ian Wright at Highbury if my memory serves me correctly. It was going top bins and somehow he got to...

    Player of the Season Vote

    Got to be Hiwula for me too closely followed by Hyam. Liked his willingness to adapt to a new position and worked out how to add goals to his game from there.

    48 hours away from expulsion / New Ricoh Talks!

    Not that I give toss about the Wasps generally but could the alleged financial irregularities cause them that much of a problem or are we just talking a slap on the wrist?

    Fan Groups and Season Tickets

    You're probably right. Even now after nearly 20 years I still think about many of the Premier league stadiums we used to visit on a regularly basis like it was yesterday. It took a very long time to adjust to the decline but Robins has brought in that feel good factor. He deserves the backing...

    The Mackem Dictionary

    Sooooo! Mackem means make them and haway means away/hurrah! Bloody hell, I'm not sure I can be bothered with all that. I think the next time we're up there I'll talk to them normally and see if it catches on.

    This Season

    If the Notts County game Biamou shows up then great but if it takes a season for him to get up to speed then he will be a bit part player. I fear for Jones though as it may end up being a psychological issue as much as physical one and in any event we're unlikely to see him until mid season. We...

    The Mackem Dictionary

    Makes you wonder why it's such an effort to use the words child, mate and throw! Right about the embellished Chinese whispers though! Just haway and Mackem to go and I should be able to converse with the locals.

    Match Thread Portsmouth vs. Coventry City Match Thread - Monday 22nd Apr

    Your lucky she only calls you Victor. The wife reckons she would have a much easier time if she was married to him instead. To which I replied "I don't believe it!!". One of us laughed at that one! :emoji_sunglasses:

    The Mackem Dictionary

    I know we've moved on by now and I've probably spent way too long entertaining myself reading some of the drivel on the Sunderland forum but can someone explain to me what the following words actually mean? Hoy, bairn, marra, haway, oh and Mackem!! I can make a rough guess at one or two but...
