    how wrong we were, can anyone find their comments?

    I think I remember the first game at the Ricoh. Was it 3-0 v QPR? I'm sure we scored 3 anyway, including a diving header from jorgensson. I may have got carried away myself at the time and had similar thoughts initially. The problem is, in a short space of time we moved to the Ricoh, had...

    Danny Newton - Tamworth

    Ah yes I remember now, Hucks was at Lincoln and Notts County before Newcastle... My brain has been too riddled with alcohol to remember that far back!

    Danny Newton - Tamworth

    It is probably worth a punt, at the right price. Kevin Philips made the jump pretty well. Huckerby came to us from a few leagues down and was good. On the train of unsuccessful jumps, where did Simon Haworth and Kyle Lightbourne come from..?

    Court hearing

    You're looking at the whole picture, SISU are looking at very discrete elements of the transaction where they believe it may be possible to find gaps in the process used to complete the sale.

    Court hearing

    I think a post that OSB58 made about having a limited time period to lodge a JR may mean that JR2 should be the end of these matters - I might be being optomistic. Unless JR3+ has already been logged behind the scenes. This could potentially get messy, in any sale, or purchase, cost only...

    An Evening With Mark Robins + Kit Launch

    Just killing time at work and somehow I've stumbled across the 16/17 Malaga kit... Looks fairly familiar. They haven't released their kit for next year yet unfortunately.

    HAHAHAHA

    To be fair weeman all things that I don't like to see in Rugby either. The thing I do like about rugby however is that the RFU have the balls to sufficiently ban players retrospectively who do offend (most of the time). In football often the FA don't want to know and a player can commit a career...

    HAHAHAHA

    Oh dear... The great football fans vs rugby fans tripe... Ultimately there a lot of dick heads in the world, some go to Football and others Rugby and other sports. I don't don a Cape of superiority when I watch rugby and I don't disrespect folk when I go to see city. There is a bit more...

    HAHAHAHA

    Just emerging from the pit after a long day yesterday making my annual trip to Twickenham sporting my CRFC shirt with pride. Great game by both sides and ultimately glad for Exeter, they have shown that careful investment and managing expectations and slow development works in sport (if only we...

    Bye bye Saturday

    Eastwood said that Cov will still have preference, as per the contract, hasn't he? Or have I missed something. I guess they just want to move the fixtures where there is no clash? I suppose if their fans are travelling quite a distance to games Sunday is a pain, as it was for us at Northampton...

    Any news on the Academy ?

    I think the academy with its status is an important part for the club, it hasn't necessarily produced Premiership stars every year but has been a source of income and provided some great players for Cov. I think it raises the profile of the club too and gives us something to be proud of. What we...

    Rumour: Hoffman and Elliot takeover negotiations

    Are SISU delaying the sale process whilst they take as much of the ST money as possible and as much of the player sales money that they can? It took a while to turn the latest offer down.

    Rumour: Hoffman and Elliot takeover negotiations

    Player wages just increase in line with the Premiership TV deal, which continues to rise. Established Premiership clubs can afford it and seem to make money so I don't see an issue with wages as such. What is an issue is the lack of money made available as you slide down the leagues, it seems...

    Rumour: Hoffman and Elliot takeover negotiations

    I think OSB has said in the past that the JR won't result in any sort of compensation. It will just assess whether the sale was completed in a correct manner. If this did highlight issues with the sale then I would have thought it would be Coventry City who could then raise a claim for any...

    Court hearing

    Either way Chief Dave, the contentious issue is the continuation of divisive legal action. Which in no way benefits the club (or anything to do with Coventry).

    Rumour: Hoffman and Elliot takeover negotiations

    Cheers OSB, yeah I thought that was the case. I just wondered if SISU have invested in getting the hearing set for July whether they are going to be remotely interested in leaving before this has been heard. Then fingers crossed it gets dismissed, they have a choice to possibly discuss any...

    Rumour: Hoffman and Elliot takeover negotiations

    I've kind of asked the same question on another thread. However, if JR2 validity is being decided in July does that mean SISU will look to hold out until they know the outcome?

    Court hearing

    Hey, my disappointment re this news has lead to me making my first post... I agree that the judicial system has been put in place to allow wrong doing to be challenged however SISU seem to be abusing it for their own means, which, as said earlier is morally wrong and doesn't reflect well on the...
