    Best player for Coventry from the 90s

    Robbie Keane was the best player in the last 2 decades. Dublin made a greater contribution over a longer period but that was not the question. He was not as good as Keane.

    What makes the team coventry city

    The team will be Coventry City in exile until it returns to Coventry and this sorry chapter in the club's history is over. Everyone, in their heart of heart, knows it is just plain wrong.

    Question for those living outside of Coventry Re. the future of your support

    I'm an exile living in Dudley. I won't go to home games until the club return to Coventry. Fortunately my kids are grown and my son comes with me now to away games. It will not affect my support as there is no other team for me. However, it has already affected my personal life as I visited...

    pete on cwr

    Pete's argument is invalid for one simple reason. He claims fans who wont go to Sixfields are not supporters of the club. He has failed to realise that we CANNOT all go to Sixfields as it holds fewer than 7000 home fans and we had an average close to 11000 even last season and a floating...

    my tickets for Vale, signal 1 stand?

    Same situation. After a bit of research I believe it is the new name for the away stand. A bit crap though as the ticket names just the stand and no turnstile numbers. Turn it over and the map shows no such stand and has turnstile numbers. Just checked on ticket bit of Port Vale offal and is...

    How many are complete stay-aways this season?

    Season ticket holder for most of last 40 years (only lapsed for one season when 2 kids were first born). I will not go to Northampton, unless someone can convince me the club had no alternative. It would be 140 miles round trip from here in Dudley, but I would do it. I went to Shrewsbury and...

    Will you?

    No credit at all. We all know if genuine offers had come in players would go. Our owners have their own agenda and financial calculations. They have to have players, after all. TBF. We have always been a selling club to a degree. Pity the club is at such a low ebb and the squad so small there...

    Stuff ACL and the council I'm fed up

    Sorry to rain on your parade but the answer is one word: DEBT. If we build a new stadium we have to borrow money or have new investors and, annoyingly, they expect to be paid back with interest. So most of the revenue streams go into servicing the debt. We also have to pay all the bills to...
