My dad was born in Cov, me in Nuneaton and I now live in Southam. Used to envy dad going out to watch matches, read the programmes he brought back avidly and pestered him to take me. Finally went in 1969 aged 6, still recall the excitement of the walk up King Richard Street and the first...

Is it really so difficult to see why it matters how many City fans attend Sixfields? We all want a successful team and so normally we want the club's revenue to be maximised to fund that. We'd also usually be proud of decent gates. What is different this year is that the owners have moved...

We're not talking about principled stands against apartheid here are we? Nobody, well nobody sensible, is suggesting that each and every game has to be evaluated against the reputation of the host club before an individual finds it acceptable to their conscience to attend. Here is my...

Three tickets bought direct from MK Dons, yes I know they're a bunch of shysters like SISU but this will be first game of the season for me and the two lads. As I was getting them lad rushed in to say Joe Murphy had saved a penalty. I suspect there may be a few of us there. Train to Bletchley...

But Appleton is an honourable man, and so if he said he didn't know we must believe him. As Fisher is an honourable man and Joy is an honourable woman and so when they say that they will build a new stadium and have no hidden agenda to distress ACL, as honourable people we must also believe them.

My lad is 12 and we both really enjoyed it. Used to go to Coundon Road with my old man in the 70s, the days of Peter Rossborough and David Duckham. Arguably Cov's fall from top dogs in English rugby was more spectacular than City's. Plenty of City fans there yesterday and will continue so I...

Had cause to go to this event at Cov Uni. Villa had a stall encouraging new students to attend matches there, smugly talking about Premiership football. Made me feel like tipping their stall over but how could we have had a similar stall looking at tapping into the 40,000 odd (some very odd!)...

Likewise, sounds good. We could adopt 'Survive' as our protest anthem!

Was also planning on attending but got called into work. Fantastic response, makes me proud!

I remember the story about Mo Konjic when he came from war torn Bosnia. He scored on his debut at Anfield for us and rang his mum. She interrupted his excited tale and told him while he's been enjoying himself his uncle had been shot, his sister raped and the house burned to the ground. And I...

Just a bit of harmless satire!

Nobody else ever. No need. Whoever takes up the reins and starts a new football club in Coventry will have the potential support of the 8th biggest City in England plus Warwickshire. It wouldn't be a small team for long it would be a phenomenon and the talk of football. Being from Coventry...

Coventry City and Bristol City today stand accused of conspiring to ensure that West Ham United missed out on automatic promotion to the Premier League. Allegations have emerged that Bristol held West Ham to a draw and Coventry deliberately lost 4 - 0 to Southampton in chilling echoes of...

Thanks Sebastian. Went through a period wishing ill on you purely because Strachan was managing you but today has really cemented a warm feeling between Cov and Saints that will last .

There seems to be an automatic reaction from some on here to slag off everyone that moves. The point of the post was that Baker was saying on his Facebook page that the Cov fans were awesome and pleading for SISU to sort it out. Can't we just acknowledge the sentiment without having a go at...

Thanks. It seems we are gathering friends around football, genuine people who can sympathise with our plight (except Sunderland mongs who can't forget a perceived slight from 35 years ago). It was your day today and your fans made a fantastic occasion and atmosphere. I agree that the BBC...

They didn't take over through love of the club but for pure business reasons, ie to make some money. They have ballsed that one up big time. As Ray Ransom commented the only way they would make money was by either getting us back into the prem, getting half of the Ricoh or by selling players...

Today was just the chickens coming home to roost. Think of any sport. Take cricket or rugby. England have no doubt got lots of talented youngsters but what would happen if they all had to play against France or India (unless they played France at cricket and India at rugby of course)...

How many goals have we conceded from corners this year? How many have we scored from corners this year?

Oh me lads You should have them coming Running down the Highfield Road Just as they were coming Men with axes picks and chains And boys from other places Running down the Highfield Road To see Joe Mercers Aces West End 1972
