    Atmosphere at St Andrews

    The Ricoh is superior in almost every way I can think of, - More modern, better car-parking safety arrangements (as at StAn the cars are too close to pedestrian entrances). - Wider turnstiles, more spacious walkways, superior toilets (certainly more and better spaced for the women) - Wider...

    Richard Stevens to West Brom?

    Richard lives in Halesowen so it's closer to home if he fancies it. Hope he stays with us.

    Peaky Blinders Season 5

    Now CCFC play right next to the Garrison pub which is the real pub in which it is set. Sadly derelict now.

    First choice midfield

    What the game yesterday should make clear is that we are at our best when we push up, attack and go for it. When we push the midfield up 10'yards, give the centre backs licence to drive forward we look a higher level than when we play cagey and drop off in midfield. At last we could be seeing...

    First choice midfield

    What a fantastic problem to have. When was the last time we could say we weren't concerned about the midfield, or at least the impact of injuries there. I love Shipley and think he is very smart. He can see a pass but he can't, as yet, always execute it. I also love Kelly and would hate to leave...

    Squad now v last season

    You only need to look at those benches to see the squad is stronger now. First match v. Southend the bench was very light. Wilson Pask Hyam Burroughs Eccles Bapaga Biamou We have used the loans well to strengthen the midfield options and cover RB.

    When Coventry City Had the Most Beautiful Programmes Ever Made

    That was my first match. My dad took me and I sat on the last seat in the Sky Blue stand next to the West End and nearly froze to death. I was hooked though, what a Christmas present. My late Dad would have been 98 yesterday. RIP x

    When Coventry City Had the Most Beautiful Programmes Ever Made

    Yes I always buy one. I have 20+ for every season back to 72/73 plus odd ones from before that. I found the Bayern Munich one (with a match ticket inside) only recently. One day I intend to find a programme fair somewhere, take a weekend break, and take all but a few special ones to sell.

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    No, it isn't because the 5 teacher training days are holidays for the kids. They were taken off the teachers not the kids. The kids have the same number of holidays they had before these training days were introduced in the 1980s. FYI the only difference is that school leaders (not the teachers)...

    Match Thread Coventry City v Southend

    Good start. Played with nice tempo. Bit worrying how sparse the bench looks at the moment. We need another experienced midfielder even when Allen is fit and two forwards who know where the goal is. PUSB

    Clothing in general is gender specific. All shops have gender specific clothing. A missed opportunity. 'Shut up and go away' is a great argument.

    Hummell

    They will not be adults kits they will be men's kits. CCFC used to do kits in women's sizes and I think it's a pity they don't any more. I know it's because we are now in League 1 yadayadaya, but it's still disappointing. Prioritise baby kits over the women when the women's World Cup is on seems...
