    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?

    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...

    Is this the nail in the coffin?

    No. Believe it or not, for the last few years the pitch at the Ricoh has been a mixture of grass and artificial fibres, supporsd to make it more durable!!.... there has been nothing to suggest that they will be laying an artificial surface (not permitted in EFL) like at the butts. If they were...

    Match Thread Coventry City vs. Gillingham Match Thread - Saturday 24th Aug

    All he has offered today. Needs to do more as he is a passenger to be honest. Will be out as soon as Allen is fit... can see Robin's changing him for O'hare. Anybody who thinks he is better than bayliss needs to watch a bit more football I think! Hiwula not offering anything. Kelly looking to...

    Bury

    Interestingly just been listening to talk sport.... a lot of talk that "Bury wish to be expelled from the football league so that they can start again as a Phoenix club!" Pretty much word for word from Durham on the radio. I also see the "Trust" were due to join them (Bury) with...

    Friargate Hotel

    I have a problem in the fact that the council are giving a company land at a discounted price (or something like that)... some guy on twitter has commented on Gilberts post about the company being listed offshore with no accounts available and that there is no way this company should be...

    Exciting loan tomorrow?

    I posted this on another thread... Mates with Matty Blair I think... he's been at Donny on loan previously... I know that ourselves and Portsmouth are in for him on loan... not sure if today also means that Donny are now too.... (Bright was watching us last week though wasn't he!) ......
