    Anyone else had enough?

    I've absolutely had enough, but I'm not going to stop attending. I go because I support Coventry City, regardless of ownership, league position or even league. In my eyes that's being a supporter. I appreciate everyone views it differently, and some will have been worn down by many more years...

    Match Thread Coventry v Millwall Match Thread - Saturday 4th Feb

    Can't wait; hoofball and protests. The beautiful game in a nutshell.

    Michael Folivi

    Someone from Watford U23's??!! Doesn't the world know we won the FA Cup in 1987 and were in the highest division of English football for over three decades? I know nothing about him, but I'm automatically assuming he's more Wright than Armstrong.

    Transfer rumours in or out

    Positives: 1) We've bought six new players in, all of whom have shown glimpses of adding something to the team. The exception perhaps being Reilly who seems no better than anyone we already had. 2) Those six also included three defenders, an area that needed addressing. 3) Depsite the rumours...

    Genuinely cannot believe some of the nonsense on this thread.

    Transfer rumours in or out

    This is fucking depressing. The fact the transfer deadline day thread has descended into pension talk and a list of pathetically shit footballers who have left us is testament to how bad this day is.

    Willis gone, Exodus begins!

    I don't get the anger. There has been strong Willis rumours all month, so now he finally goes. Slade has bought in two CB's and a RB, plus we have Stokes (sort of), Turnbull and Harries in the background. If I had to pick one of the three strongly rumoured to leave (Stevenson, Harries and...

    Willis gone, Exodus begins!

    He's a good centre back, but a poor right back. He is prone to the odd mistake and if he didn't have pace he would be caught out a lot more. It's a shame he spent too long playing RB for us, and when he was CB he was usually next to somebody poor. He has the ability to play at a higher level...

    No boxes for Wycombe game

    You'd be gutted if you were staying in the hotel the same night 20k+ football fans are outside your window.

    Wycombe Ticket News

    We should play cliche bingo. Guarentee we'll hear a 'get it forward' within the first five minutes. The worst part is, the shout is actually accurate of our current "tactics".

    I was intrigued so I had a look. Bloody hell that is tragically bad. Good location as well - turn it into something decent and you'd make some decent money.

    Wycombe Ticket News

    I would expect 25k attendance. The chance to watch the team at Wembley for the first time in 30 years and potentially the last time for another 30, will bring out all the fans who no longer support the team, NOPM, casuals etc. Can't wait to hear people get names wrong, shout cliche shit and...

    It's all gone quiet over there - Transfers...

    Yes, they are. It could supper it but that was my point re Slade/Venus/whoever, having plans for those players leaving i.e. replacements targeted and clubs made aware. They are close to the deals, they should know how likely any are to go through.

    It's all gone quiet over there - Transfers...

    Not sure why some are actually criticising SISU for rejecting offers? I get that they are absolute tossers, but they literally can't win. In what world is holding out extra for players a negative? The clubs stump up the extra; great, the clubs don't; we get to keep our better players. However...

    He doesn't. It's SISU funded remember.

    SLADE

    He's not a footballer, he's technically poor but he is an athlete. Poor mans Telfer.

    Idiots

    This is a really important point that shouldn't be overlooked. I'm sure a lot of people feel the same, especially the older generation or supporters with children. Make the Ricoh intimidating for the opposition but not our own fans. Protesting behind a cause is good, but outright thuggish...

    Match Thread Northampton v Coventry Match Thread - Saturday 28th Jan

    Can't believe how quiet this thread is, three hours before kick off. I wonder if the Wycombe and (hopefully) Wembley threads will be?
