    What have I missed.......

    Hello All, the purpose of this thread is pretty much summed up in the thread title. I have been, and still am, travelling around the world. I left England the weekend before the Southampton game so I've been away nearly 4 months now. As such I have missed all of the news re CCFC and have not...

    Leicester fans in the Coventry end

    I completly agree that away fans should not be in our end, regardless of the opposition. I also completly agree violence is not the solution and should not be advocated. We all have that urge at times in the midst of a high tension match to want to smack a particularly annoying oppostion fan...

    Football Manager Threads?

    I would be very game for this. I too usually take over Coventry but this time I thought I would go for a new challenge; so I took over Nuneaton. Got from the Blue Square Confernce South to the premier league in 6 seasons. Winning the league in each respective division, and after 3 years in the...

    The Best T.V. Comedy

    1. The Office = Alan Partridge 2. Peep Show 3. Inbetweeners 4. Father Ted 5. Extras 6. Phoneix Nights 7. Max & Paddy To be fair - Modern Family, The Office(US) and Entourage are all pretty awesome too.

    Best ever City Manager

    Jimmy Hill - well before my era but decades on and he still has unamimous fans support - that speaks for itself. The legend of Jimmy Hill is ingrained into any SKy Blue fans upbrining. For my era probably EB purely as we were involved in some entertaining high scoring games.

    citybid £500,000 for le fondre

    Would be a great signing, but as eveyone else has already said I doubt the validility of this rumour. My heart wants it to be true, my head says its not.

    Does AT know about Dean Bouzanis?

    Cap, not caps. Just to be pedantic.

    iPhone / Android Users

    I get onto the site via safari, but a neat little app with clear east links to the different forums/home etc would be something I would definitely be interested in.

    The Eastwood Enigma

    I am a fan of Freddy but it has been hard to defend his actions recently his performances has been lacklustre to say the least, and his attutude is disappointing to see he doesnt even try to hide it anymore! The earlier comment about him not being AT's cup of tea is probably pretty accurate...

    Does AT know about Dean Bouzanis?

    Seen him play before, definitely has potential but I think there are better more experienced keepers around. Still would not be disappointed if we did sign him.

    Westwood to Villa and Brad Freidel to us?

    Still a preimership class goalkeeper, and in that sense would be a good acquisition. Plus the experience from the back would be good. However would much prefer a young/younger up and coming keeper, as Westwood was when we first got him. There are plenty around, plus Murphy and Lonegan would be...

    Dissertation

    Of little relevance to anyone but I have just got rid of the bane of my life, well of the last few weeks anyway. Such a good feeling I just wanted to share my relief at getting it done and dusted!

    Favourite away ground

    Elland Road, sat in the home end on a few occasions too as an "honourary" Leeds fan to be fair the atmosphere they drum up especially on some of the European nights a few years ago was second to none.

    Team v Boro - confused??

    Must be injuries to the King and Hussey. Emnes against O'Halloran is a worrying thought, although perhaps his recent break from the first team will have done him some good. Before the match on Friday I too would have been surprised at Platt ahead of Eastwood, especially as I am a big Eastwood...

    Manager update from Ken and controversy

    I would give him a go for the season, still not 100% convinced but some of the names touted around over the last few weeks scare me and are certainly no higher in my eyes than a scout turned manager playing some attractive football. I would also back him to find some pretty decent signings read...

    Out of Contract Players

    That is worst case scenario though - perhaps a compromise would be nobody was sold and we keep king, but equally we bought nobody in which would leave a team of Ireland Keogh Cranie Turner Hussey Bell Clingan Deegan McSheff Juke/Eastwood King Not that weak a side, add a...

    Sean Scannell & co.

    I rate St Ledger but we don't really need any more centre backs, unless a few leave in the summer. Wouldn't mind Lonergan, Ambrose, Scannel, Treacy or Speroni.
