    The Worst Chairman

    Fisher. The others at least had a notion of doing what is best for the club. After Northampton, how can anyone say that about Fisher?

    Chesterfield Highlights

    Yesterday at the game I thought Jones took a dive for the sending off. Having watched that it does seem he was brought down ( not that " felt a touch so went over " rubbish).

    Chesterfield Highlights

    I agree with you about McNulty. He did all of that yesterday with little or no service. He still took loads of abuse which I don't understand. The highlights do make things look better than they were. It was a terrible game with long passages of completely nondescript play, the sort of game that...

    Tim Fisher

    I don't agree with the way people at the station behaved towards him but I would wonder at his naivety in appearing at a place where he knew lots of disgruntled City fans were sure to be and expect nothing to happen. When he came to the Trust meeting he had a couple of blokes there to look after...

    Tim Fisher

    After the two wins at the start of the season it was mentioned by another poster that the concentration should be on supporting the team and not concerning ourselves about Sisu. I disagreed with this for the fact that others could then come back and say "well you weren't bothered about Sisu when...

    Match Thread Chesterfield - Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 2nd Sep

    A lot of harsh comments on Beaven and McNulty. I just can't see how they are expected to be productive when the service they get is poor. Long balls lumped up to them that they have no hope of winning. I could understand it if we then picked up the second ball from the centre halfs clearance...

    Tim Fisher

    I think you are underestimating how angry people are with Sisu. I very much doubt that a last minute winner would have changed the reception that Fisher got today. What Sisu have done and are doing is far deeper than results.

    Muslim Coventry City Players

    Odd story about Hadji. Two of my boys were mascots in the home game at Highfield Road against Leeds that we lost 4-3 when Huckerby scored for Leeds. Part of the day was to go into the dressing room before the game and meet the players and Gordon Strachan and get their autographs. There was a lot...

    Transfer Rumour #CARLBAKERDAY

    I think you are both being harsh on Baker. I don't see him as a Coventry legend or anything like that. Compared to the players we had in the top flight days he wouldn't compare favourably. In the Champion ship he was very hit and miss, maybe one good game in five. However, in League One I...

    As mentioned above, a very large percentage of those 33 will not feature this year. They are names in the squad but to all intents and purposes they might as well not be there for all the first team game time they are likely to get, particularly in the league.

    Match Thread Coventry City - Shrewsbury Town Match Thread - Tuesday 29th Aug

    Unfortunately you could say the same about the FA Cup. Clubs in both top divisions disrespecting it. The question has to be if you can't be bothered trying to win and get to the next round then why take part?

    Just had s look at the squad on the back of the Newport programme. We have a squad of 33 players, 4 of which are goalkeepers. Thirteen of the squad have either never played a first team game or played only once or twice. We then have other players such as Biamou, Stevenson, Dion Kelly Evans...

    Match Thread Coventry City - Shrewsbury Town Match Thread - Tuesday 29th Aug

    On the back of the two recent defeats I think we at least need a competitive performance to instil some confidence in team and fans. Losing 3-1 at home to Shrewsbury where they have 80% possession (as Blackburn must have been close to) won't help.

    Match Thread Coventry City - Shrewsbury Town Match Thread - Tuesday 29th Aug

    I think he has to be more careful with this game. We were completely out played by Blackburn and I think people could accept this because if the perceived status of the opponents. Shrewsbury are also league One and are doing well this season. However, I think seeing our team completely outplayed...

    Match Thread Yeovil Town - Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 26th Aug

    From his comments about budget yesterday it would seem that this is the squad for the season, no money to bring anyone else in. It is therefore down to Robins to make the most of what he has got. I still don't think we have a real target man option (Biamou off the pace and Thomas out of favour...

    Oggy

    Can't believe I am criticising Bill Glazier but he was virtually finished at 30. He left us for Brentford I think and only played a few games before retiring. He was a more exciting keeper to watch than Oggy, but for sheer consistency in the top league, for playing over 600 games and for playing...

    Anyone still believe.....

    I watched him in 3 pre season friendlies, Tamworth where he played really well, Mickleover where he was okay and Nuneaton when I felt he was fairly anonymous, plus tthe twenty minutes against Blackburn when he struggled to make an impression. I would love to be wrong and for him to come in and...

    Oggy

    In my opinion Oggy is the best goalkeeper I have seen play for the club, closely followed by Bill Glazier. When there was the pole on here for best players we have had in each position two years ago, he was voted best keeper. He played all of his City games for a top flight team and kept his...
