    Match Thread: Port Vale 16 March 2014

    C'mon and score already. Also, how come on days like this, when there are *only* 2 PL matches, the powers that be can't have this game televised? My BBC match feed only seems to update every 5 minutes or so. Or am I missing out on some secret society web stream that always has a City game?

    CCFC Announce New Sponsor

    Do not mistake this for a personal attack, but would you mind reconsidering this comment? 200+ individuals are missing, and possibly dead, for reasons unknown at this time. They have families and loved ones, and I happen to dislike when people make light of tragedies. Thank you in advance for...

    Drink + Independent Inquiry petition + £1million questions

    Salutations and peace Grendel, I do not believe I have ever directly responded to one of your posts before, but I assure you that I try to be level-headed and passive in regards to my posts to fellow members of the global Sky Blues Army. In regards to your specific comments: I actually think...

    Better than the Sunday Papers

    Also, I came across a curious fact about Sunderland AFC's illistrious history. Namely, look into Sunderland AFC's "friendly" attitude towards local rivals Sunderland Albion in the late 19th century. HMMMMMM

    did any one go to Hooters?

    I laughed so hard reading this. There is an old Simpson's episode about Mr. Burns planning to build a casino, and one of the themes presented to him was "Britannia" with a stoop backed woman with bad teeth that asked "Freshen' yer drank, Guvnor?"

    Better than the Sunday Papers

    Yikes that was 14 pages of unadultered anger... I think grudges are fine and part of a natural rivalry, but wishing the rival into nonexistence and singing about it is awful. Makes more sense to me (from their twisted jagged p.o.v.), that they would support an enquiry simply to expose the...

    No to Hull Tigers

    Also Tom, I just saw your edit about the German model of club ownership. I am not embarrassed to admit that I have no idea how that works. What are the positives that could be borrowed to improve the English leagues?

    No to Hull Tigers

    Tom, I truly respect your position. I would like to engage you further about a couple of your points. Cardiff City and Hull City are "enjoying relative success" only for the moment. Their owners have shelled out a lot to bring their clubs from the lower leagues back to the top flight, and most...

    No to Hull Tigers

    This is my opinion on that: Re-branding is a different concern than re-location, certainly. However, I won't go as far as to suggest that our concerns, as a Coventry City fanbase, are any more or any less important than the concerns of other fanbases for their respective clubs. A shared...

    Petition for grilling

    I don't see much reason for the "be careful what you wish for" type posts above. I hold a lot of trust and faith in the almighty Truth. If an inquiry shows unseen conspiracies, devious business practices, negligence, etc., by ANY and/or ALL parties in relation to our club in particular, then it...

    There will be no perm signings

    My brother and I had a one-game trial for the youth squad back in '98, while we were visiting family in England for a week. It was against Nun Boro. We "were't want they were looking for," but I will offer myself up once more. And it's a free signing!

    Snowlanta

    I live in Atlanta, USA. 2 inches of snow fell here yesterday. All Hell broke loose, with drivers clogging the freeways and later abandoning vehicles, 1200 accidents, a baby born on the highway... Many drivers were forced to sleep in their cars overnight due to unpassable driving conditions, and...

    Transfer News On The Way

    SKYblueBlood, I agree. I can understand that Leon leads the goalscorers in the league, but doesnt't that say much more about the team around him to build chances for him to score? A good striker needs to be able to finish, certainly, but he needs to gel well with his teammates in just the right...

    New stadium land deal to be announced next month

    Ugh, I'm simply... disappointed? ?... about the whole notion of a new stadium on principle. I can understand that different parties have different opinions about values, revenue streams, etc. But, WTF! There is a perfectly good stadium being unused... Makes no sense to me... Feel free to...

    Are you looking up or down

    I am looking up. Losing today's game, against a second/first place team on Very good form is not the end of the world. But, It soured my day, for sure.
