    Article: "I can save Coventry City" says Gary Hoffman

    Regardless of how he does in the next few games, Thorn would be an ideal appointment for the current regime, a scout turned manager = cheap wages.

    Is king available

    Sky bet - King - 6/1 first goalscorer - 50/1 hat trick if your feeling really optimistic......

    Question for season ticket holders- Will you renew if SISU stay?

    I have, my dad has, the people we go with have. Regardless of who our owners are, the background politics, it is still the team I support and I will not be stopped from showing that support by those issues.

    We must drive SISU out of the club - End this nightmare now!

    They did do some good as they originally saved us from relegation, somewhat ironic they are now driving us back towards the very position they saved us from. Administration has got to be a worse case scenario, relegation could be positive in that perhaps we find our level and start winning...

    Brian Laws

    I seriously hope there is no truth to this rumour, poor manager with an even poorer record.

    The Dream Team Was Alive !!

    That team would have been a pretty dominant force in the league, adding the likes of Clingan, Turner, Cranie, Eastwood and what I strong squad it would have been. We cant live in the past however, the worrying thing now is the talk of no money for players in the summer. If this is true the...

    What have we got to look forward to next season?

    Two Kevin Thorntons? God I bet the alcohol consumption in Northampton has increased dramatically.

    What have we got to look forward to next season?

    Looking forward is the wrong word but I am interested to see the new kit at least.... As things stand we do not have much to look forward to, I reckon we will survive this year and with the team posted earlier, we can look forward to a relegation fight next season. However lets be hopeful; by...

    GMK down again?

    It was down for me earlier too - this is my new home now anyway. GMK pushed me away somewhat with the attitude shown towards Nick when it was first back up and running a few days ago, some petty remarks and a very hostile atmosphere in which Nick handled himself well. Such a disappointing...

    New CEO and Chairman on Sky Sports News

    Investment in the stadium may lead to further investment on the field; if SISU are generating income from the stadium less will need to be pumped in to keep us afloat and perhaps some of that money could be switched the the transfer budget.

    Dulieu: City were within 'a couple of days' of going into Admin

    Ken has tried to make himself and the new board look the heroes there as it was them who persuaded SISU to invest, which in turn also gives SISU the credit for saving us from administration AGAIN. Some lovely propaganda there.

    fair play sisu

    All too true, I think there intentions when they first came in were to do just that but with the whole economic crisis I think there plans got ruined.

    New Swedish investors on the way?

    Maybe we will nick Sven from Leicester too - just to add to the sweetness of the deal.

    Duo Get New City Contracts

    Nope he is a striker, although he does fit into the inexperienced bit!

    Article: "I can save Coventry City" says Gary Hoffman

    Yes officially he has no ties or role to Coventry City FC, which implies he is doing it off his own back. He must see some positive in finding investment and taking over City, although the fact he is actually a city fan probably plays some part in why it is us he wants investment for...

    Duo Get New City Contracts

    They were probably forced to offer the keeper a contract - he will be our 3rd choice keeper next season behind an inexperienced 20 year old and an equally inexperienced 19 year old....

    The Mirror: Ranson planing summer takeover bid!

    I would half expect Ranson and Hoffman to work together - they seem quite big mates, and while Ranson is not a sky blue in the same sense as Hoffman I definitely think he feels some affiliation to City. If not as Roger said it definitely makes sense for them to work together. I think most of us...

    The Mirror: Ranson planing summer takeover bid!

    Not all all - investment - improvement - increased reputation - owners flaunt our club in there home market - increased sales. Obviously this is massively over simplified but why not? To cite an extreme example - Man City. I doubt they were exactly a world wide name a few seasons ago now there...

    So now GMK is back

    Just had a look at GMK Nick you seem to be on the end of some stick, handling yourself in a very respectable way in somewhat hostile circumstances it must be said. I am surprised, I had not seen that side to GMK before.
