My brother had his wedding reception in The Oak and the Cottage. Last time I went to the Oak it was like a Wasps members club. Tbh didn’t go in there much as it was always full of older people. The Clarence used to be good but was just the wrong way to meander into town. Travesty what happened...

Ah yeah, I’ve heard that’s all a bit like that nowadays. It was probably a bit like that back then!

It was decent. Had something for everyone. Used to be really busy on Fridays and Saturdays. Where do earlsdon folk go now? We used to spend our time between there and the cottage.

When back in cov on my most recent trip I visited my old favourite ‘the Albany’ in Earlsdon. Christ! What have they done to it?! I used to love it in there. back in my day they had pool tables upstairs, if you could see them through thick fog of weed smoke.

But only if they (or their parents) were born in Coventry!

Haha, yeah I think you’re right. I get your point but Personally I quite like it if we’ve got fans from other countries. Im curious as to why the hell anyone would support us who seemingly didn’t ‘have‘ to. And It’s not like they’re taking tickets from working class city fans...most from cov...

I think a lot of people who support the likes of Liverpool, Utd etc as they say “my dad/family are from there/supported them” you don’t mind that?

I suspect you’re right. I quite liked the gentle trolling!

What just happened there?

So that’s essentially voting tomorrow right?

Haha! Good work! I love that we have fans all over the world. We’re not the most fashionable (putting it mildly) team, or city come to think of it. However I believe it makes our victories, especially over the last couple of seasons, that much sweeter.

Great story. Have you managed to get to many/any games over the years?

I don’t think I’ve ever been angrier after a game than this. Christ!!!! (I’m sure I probably have).

Am I right in thinking this is the first IKEA in the uk to close down? Surely it would be The Roland Nilsson Stadium of Light (fittings).

Good scouting indeed. Just behind Dabo, Allen is my favourite of the players we own. I’m expecting big things from him.

Big worry for a lot of clubs. I actually think we’d survive. Sisu might be a lot of things but quitters they ain’t. Think they’ve proven over that last few years that ‘by hook or by crook’ they’re going to get their investment back. Anyway, let’s hope we don’t have to find out.

I can’t help but think that the EFL would’ve spoken to the ‘gang of 6’ prior to today’s announcement, to determine what offer it would take to make the majority of them (Pompey, Fleetwood, Oxford) to change their stance. The EFL wants the season ended...surely this would’ve happened?

Just saw a pop up on sky saying league 1 to be decided on unweighted PPG. edit: with Stevenage relegated for league 2. edit 2: it’s just saying this is what’s likely to happen. edit 3: bullshit.

Didn’t see it but ‘Arry is dodgy as hell.

I don’t know how a manger gets blamed for a clubs financial plight. Unless managing a football club really is like ‘Championship Manager’! In which case I’ll take over from Robins. My first act will be to replace Matty Godden with Cherno Samba.
