    Butts Park Arena is new home

    Nick, Les Reid's affirmation that his exclusive was right is misleading. Anyone that heard Jon Sharp from Cov Rugby on BBC C&W's "Ruck and Maul" last night will have heard him confirm that the Sky Blues had visited the BPA, but that there are significant obstacles to either the Sky Blues or Cov...

    U21s

    Have just come from 3-0 down at half-time to beat Bolton 4-3. Two goals apiece for Thomas (1 pen) and Sambou, who seems to be on fire. Hasn't been given much of a run-out in the first team since he got his squad number. Worth another go on the bench, assuming the U21s and the first team train...

    Announcement ?

    Any particular reason? Have you got a bet on him staying until 2016??

    Sorry that went a bit off-topic there!

    Atmosphere today

    Is this meant to be as donor or recipient?! Kids these days are right little mean bastards. I have a colleague who gets the bus from Coundon to Canley during the buses' "school run", and she cannot believe some of the things they come out with. Referring to a girl of Asian origin as "ISIS", and...

    Sports Personality Of The Year 2015

    Did Sinfield not play for (and captain) England then? If so, how can you suggest it is his club level rugby only that gained him the votes? That being the case, how about Leigh Halfpenny being runner-up in 2013?

    Sports Personality Of The Year 2015

    Rugby league is a marginal sport played in about 3 counties in England, and a bastardisation of the original game of rugby. It may be faster, but certainly ain't more skilful: pick the ball up and run as far as you can in a straight line at the opposition. There is never any incentive to pass...

    Announcement ?

    ... and those who agree with the principles of "cause and effect"! Just because some madman on here has a wishlist for City's future, doesn't make it so! Don't send yourself to an early grave fretting about something over which you have NO control! It's not even a rumour, Mech.

    Announcement ?

    What "news"?? There IS NO news. It's a bunch of football fans saying what they would like a bordering-on-fictitious announcement to contain. Christ, your psychiatrist must have his work cut out! You ever hear the expression "que sera, sera"?

    Rivalries

    Started going up in about '83, and it was always anti-Leicester songs in the West End ... Save all your bottles for me, Save all your bottles for me Bye-bye Leicester, bye-bye Don't cry Leicester, don't cry We'll be thinking of you when you're in Division Two SO SAVE ALL YOUR Bottles for me...

    Mourinho Sacked

    On the bright side, at least he has knocked the hype surrounding Star Wars off the top of the trending list on Tw*tter!

    Odds slashed on tm going to fulham

    The unions representing staff at Trinity Mirror (including the Telegraph) are currently in dispute with the company because they are changing journos' contracts such that they are required to increase the digital hit rate for their "articles". Failure to do so will result in the wonderful HR...

    Presumably heaving a sigh of relief that they don't find themselves in that particular column?!

    Odds slashed on tm going to fulham

    The odds will be based on what the bookies have calculated they stand to lose IF (insert event here) was to happen. It's a self-fulfilling prophecy of odds going down, so people perceive it is more likely to happen (because the odds have come down), chuck a few bob on it, thereby increasing the...

    Team without Ricketts?

    Yeah how come Bigi didn't feature on Sunday? I think it's Dion Kelly-Evans who is the RB. But is Ricketts banned for two yellows?

    Sky Blue Away Kit

    Even though there are white stripes in our home kit, the overarching impression is that it is blue, and with blue shorts it would have clashed LESS than the red. Stupid decision based on commercial issues.

    Supporters' group tells Coventry City FC owners to clarify stadium plans

    Strikes me that this is another non-story apparently written for the CT by Mr Gilbert, again seemingly trying to use coincidence and hearsay to undermine the recent stability at our football club, coming hot on the heels of some of the evidence that was presented at the "Ethics" Committee...

    Ethics Commitee Meeting Tomorrow

    It may have been appropriate for ACL (not CCC per se) to see the financial plan as they were at that stage a creditor of CCFC, and that would have been discussed as part of the consideration of the ill-fated attempt to force the club into a CVA.

    Ethics Commitee Meeting Tomorrow

    He presents his "evidence" to the Ethics Committee (that's a f**king joke for starters - 4 of Lucas's buddies), then they say no-one did anything wrong ... err, sorry ... they come to a reasoned and objective decision as to whether the complaint has any basis in fact.
