    BPA - Back On?

    Given that SISU's default position is to litigate against business partners. I hope Cov Rugby club have a good legal team for when SISU start court proceedings against them!

    Happy Birthday To

    I remember driving home from the FA cup quarter final v Sheffield Wednesday and the local radio had an item called the "Grumble line" on. A Sheff Wednesday fan rang up to complain that their players couldn't get past Coventry's 50 year old left back! Even the presenter thought that was a bit of...

    Venus interview

    Mark Venus sounded like a totally depressed and overwhelmed individual. He is just trying to hold things together against a background where the owners are not making any decisions. It makes no business sense to not make an appointment given that they supposedly have a budget for a manager and...

    Match Thread Southend v Coventry Match Thread - Saturday 10th Dec

    At this rate we will only stop one season in Div 2, as we will be non-league for the 18-19 season

    WOODLANDS!

    All academies deliver AASE (Advanced Apprenticeship for Sporting Excellence) which is an NVQ level 3 qualification. Placing a CCFC academy on that site could get round any covenants.

    Fisher live on CWR.... the countdown begins.

    "Mr Fisher - have you been working for Sunderland as part of their retribution for the relegation they endured following the City v Bristol City match in the 70's?"

    Oh to have owners like this .

    Bournemouth will have an interesting time trying to secure a site for a stadium. They could try Sandbanks... the lands really cheap there! ! !

    Your Ideas On Moving The Club Forward

    The club needs to rediscover the approach that was used during the 1960's. A clear strategic vision that is seen to being realised and including positive community engagement and partnership working across a wide range of sectors. Given the toxic relationships between our owners and almost...

    Venus set to stay until January

    This is a bizarre decision on footballing terms. MV knows he's not the right person to be manager. Given the transfer window opens in January, it would be a smart move to bring a new manager in BEFORE then, so he can assess the current squad and make informed decisions on who he'll recruit...

    I feel guilty

    I want our team to win. It must be especially hard for the young players who have developed through the academy. The lack of leadership isn't helping them fulfil their potential and help the club.

    I feel guilty

    It's a shame there isn't a trophy for the worst run football club in the EFL. We would be odds on favourites to win that!

    JR2 - SISU's bargaining tool?

    The issue for a company entering into naming rights will be the impact on their target market. They will have calculated the scale and value of any sponsorship or promotion. So is a stadium with a Div 1 or 2 football team of significant value over just sponsoring the shirts for a Premiership...

    JR2 - SISU's bargaining tool?

    Your point regarding the "value" of the stadium naming rights is a good one. Football hits a greater range and scope of the target audience, in comparison to rugby.

    Brian Richardson or Tim Fisher ?

    A better question would be Derrick Robbins or Tim Fisher. Derrick Robbins took the team from Div 3 to Div 1, whilst Tim Fisher is taking the Team from Championship [Div 2] to Div 2 [Old Division 4]. There really is no contest!

    Who would take relegation ?

    But we will get relegation and retaining SISU! Give it 5 years and with the same owners we'll be playing the "Dog & Duck social XI

    Our travelling support has been fantastic over the recent years. It's dreadful that they are having to endure this today. They deserve a proper team to support!

    Worst City team in history?

    Agree - CCFC is a shambles at so many different levels and areas
