    Richard Stevens to West Brom?

    Interesting one. It is believed amongst some Albion fans that they are winding down their academy with rumours that they might even close it. Been letting go lots of staff recently. Cost cutting maybe They have closed off the front 2 rows of the Stand opposite the cameras and covered them with...

    SBT - great Friday afternoon chuckle

    Totally agree, Personally I can't sell anything to the trust! I have suggested via Twitter that they organise something for a Wasps game (last season) they batted it straight off saying that people should do it themselves. I have it first hand from a trust board member... who regularly posts on...

    SBT - great Friday afternoon chuckle

    Have said previously it would be typical of the "Trust" to organise it purposely on a date that city fans would struggle to attend... eg the MK Don's awat game or even a "home" game, knowing full well what would happen. The first game is not actually a league game so I am led to believe, it's a...

    SBT - great Friday afternoon chuckle

    See Neil from the Trust has been interviewed in a paper (screen shotted (below) from FB but don't know/can't see what paper) Managing to get a voice.....would love to see full article. When is Wasps first home game?...Less than 2 weeks? Trust very quiet. Looks like no chance of anything action...

    Match Thread Coventry City vs. Blackpool Match Thread - Saturday 7th Sep

    Thoughts: Walsh grew into the game. Looks promising. Two footed too by the looks of it. Robins needs to look at a side that does not include Westbrooke. Back four looked all over the place for first 20 mins. Their line was horrific, Mcfadzean was pushing high, Rose 5/10 yards back and Mcallum...

    Atmosphere at St Andrews

    Sit in 25 with my dad (68) and sometimes my lad (3.5).... chose that end, away from away fans/singers corner deliberately. I'd say it's currently on a par with what you had in blocks 19/20 of the Ricoh. I'd move closer to the other end if you want it to be a bit more lively. They have been...

    Match Thread Oxford United vs. Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 31st Aug

    Westbrooke very average player. Assists from set pieces and vs Exeter! Hiwula scored 2 against a weakened Exeter side. Both been poor and we need more if we want to win games like today. Would love to be proved wrong!!

    Match Thread Oxford United vs. Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 31st Aug

    Interesting that Robin's has shown loyalty to Westbrooke and Hiwula despite their recent performances. From a wanting to win perspective also worrying. If they have done their homework and stop Kelly having time on the ball, like Gillinham last week, we will struggle as Westbrooke can't get hold...

    Sky Blue youth superstars who never made it...

    Think McGuire had something like glandular fever which knocked him about quite seriously and he never really got back up to speed and the potential he had previously showed. Played a few reserve games but nothing on from that.

    Sky Blue youth superstars who never made it...

    Regarding me playing, sadly, I had quite a serious illness diagnosed just before my 18th birthday, bad at any time, but worse as a young 17 year old wanting to be a footballer. Was the end of me at Chesterfield and due to how harsh the treatment was wasn't able to play for nearly two years. Did...

    Sky Blue youth superstars who never made it...

    Ducros was my year at CCFC through the age groups. Was technically outstanding and went off to the old National School of excellence at Lilleshall for U15/16 (like St George's park, for you youngsters!) He could have gone pretty much anywhere but signed a YTS at City. There were a few local lads...

    The October rumour

    Honestly have no idea. However it is now so one sided it is embarrassing. Well and truly "PR'd" by Mr Richardson from Wasps.

    The October rumour

    I attended off the back of here but was also in the WhatsApp group for the PSB group meet. I don't think any turned up from there. However, since "PSB group" had his little meeting with uncle Nick from Wasps, his twitter has been embarrassingly one sided against guess who....yes, SISU! He...

    The October rumour

    I think most CCFC fans are boycotting Wasps. General public are so ignorant of situation that some, who more than likely read the Cov Tel and listen to CWR and the trust when they are on radio/tv, actually believe that Wasps are right to not deal "as SISU are taking legal action against them!"...

    The October rumour

    Loads of different points here. *better football Northampton- Presley got lucky with the players he had at his disposal (L Clarke, Christie, Fleck etc) and a Callum Wilson coming through and starting to score goals. Clarke goes and Wilson injured, wheels come off badly. *20k gates- Under...

    What do people actually want?

    Oh dear.... what choice did they have when all of a sudden "Wasps" wanted indemnity for possibly 10s of millions for the possible wrongdoings of the council. Forced out... Ganged up on by the council hiding behind Wasps... despicable.

    What do people actually want?

    Referring to those in the "Sisu have taken us out of Coventry again" and "Away games only" brigades, and those that can go but won't...... all.of whom will be moaning even more when we sell players or sign those of lower quality, or even lose MR....

    What do people actually want?

    Reduced income, reduced budget, reduced quality players/staff?... but an away day will be good though won't it!!...????

    What do people actually want?

    Difficult one to poll. So did not vote: Want; Back to Coventry as soon as possible. Ricoh only option at present to do that. (Robin's and his squad, staff etc need support and paying!!... anybody stating away is affecting that going forward, sadly that is only option to get those, away games...
