Would rather keep Thorn than SISU but would ideally like to see both of them leave. To be honest, Thorn would never have got the job were it not for SISU's cost-cutting so I see them as one of the same.

Well the way we are currently going is only pointing to one outcome - certain relegation and probably bottom place. I appreciate we have no money at present but surely we still have to hope that we can stay up. Surely it is worth rolling the dice before it is too late as the current outlook is...

Yes, as is Dave Sexton, Don McKay and George and John.

His son is now proving to be a half-decent manager...

Fair point, we should have done better however he did sign most of these players so was a good judge of a player. Remember Henderson was only on loan briefly and he was forced to sell Tabb. I don't understand why Coleman refused to play Ward, clearly they didn't get on personally. However I...

I left off Nilsson as I don't think he would realistically come back as he has gone on to bigger and better things since he left us. I still remember his season in charge, all was going well until Jim Smith joined half way through the season and we slumped from play-off certs to mid-table...

Presumably unless we go into admin, SISU will continue to refuse to deal with Hoff and his investors. Didn't the Orange One say a few weeks ago that he had some alternative investors lined up? Strangely enough he hasn't said much about that lately...

A good number of our former managers are currently out of work. I know it is unlikely that we would approach managers that we have in the past sacked (and it is doubtful whether they would want to return) however desperate times call for desperate measures and honestly I think a number of them...

With Clouting's botched departure, just who is in charge at CCFC? Regardless of SISU's lack of investment in the club, I think arguably their biggest failure has to be open, accountable and honest with the fans - something that requires absolutely no financial output. Has Clouting been...

I'm sick of reading people saying "we are stuck with SISU", "no one will ever take us over", "we will never have any money", "any investors must need a frontal lobotomy" etc. I appreciate there is the issue of stadium ownership however that aside why are we such an unattractive proposition for...

before that probably Big Ron who was booted upstairs

Shame SISU didn't just bring in 11 goalkeepers and play them all. ;)

Yeah, and the stats really suggest that don't they? I think we have had worse managers and clearly Thorn has had next to nothing to work with however his win/game ratio is probably as bad as any Coventry manager over the past 50 years with the possible exception of Don Howe. And most of these...

How long before he issues a statement giving Thorn his vote of confidence from his luxury suite at Coombe Abbey?

Suppose it all comes down to SISU's intentions. With this squad I think Fergie or Mourinho would struggle to get out of the bottom 6 however I do think we can do slightly better than this and we need an experienced manager. Time for Thorn to stand aside before he starts to become part of the...

Only if we have: 1. New owners in by Christmas at the latest who are prepared to invest 2. At least 4/5 new players 3. A Paul Lambert/Nigel Adkins style miracle worker as manager

Maybe we need an exorcist not a manager!

The players must be spending a lot of time in front of the mirror. I swear Thorn is saying they need to take a hard look at themselves every week!

Definitely - something very rotten at the heart of the club. We have a reverse Midus touch.

By the time that "miracle" takes place we will probably be in League 2 or worse if SISU's under-investment continues. We will eventually find our level where we are clearly too big a club to struggle but it might take visits from the likes of Barnet and Macclesfield until we see that day. Just...
