looks like it's not on TV, there's a radio stream from 5Live on the BBC website. Looks like the official site has moved from CWR to Mercia, it's so bad it's hard to listen to.

Coventry born and raised, move to Hatfield for Uni and now live in Pompey having lived in Cambridge, Ottawa and London. Would love to move back to Cov, or at least somewhere close enough I could get to more games, but the wife won't move!

Living in Pompey I don't have the time or money to attend as often as I'd like (good this year tho with Pompey, Saints, Brighton and Reading all nice and close) it doesn't half wind me up when I hear of 'fans' living in Cov who can't be bothered to go, especially when they phone up CWR to...

It wouldn't come as a big shock to anyone if they had forgotten to put the tickets on sale before today.

i would bite your hand off for that right now. given that we're not going to get promoted the whole aim of the season will be not going down and still being in business.

that's perfect. I'd always thought, or should that be hoped, that the silver lining with SISU was that the business side of things was being sorted out and at least we're not in the mess we were with with past owners but looking now that doesn't seem to be the case. With the squad the most...

out of interest can someone who understands the accounts give us a before and after SISU takeover summary. It's fair to say that we had more debt before from what I recall but were we losing so much a year? SISU seem to have got us £30m in the hole in pretty quick time compared to BR / GR /...

This gets said a lot but is it actually true? Didn't they just say if a deal didn't go through by a certain time they would go into admin, it didn't actually follow that they had to did it? I've always thought it was a tactic to push GR into accepting the deal when he wanted more than was being...

the fact that they don't want to use their own money (or rather that of their various funds) would surely set off alarm bells to anyone considering putting money in. I would love to see how they pitch investing in CCFC. "we're losing £6m a year, have no assets and don't want to put any of our...

This is what's always concerned me, owning the stadium seems to be seen as a magic bullet to fix all our problems but as far as I can see there's a good chance we'd be worse off. Let's say we owned it 100% leasehold and freehold. There would be £1m less a year being paid out by CCFC but also £1m...

I'm not particularly SISU out so not really who you're aiming at but with or without investement I'd like clarity on what they would use the money for and the long term plan. To be honest if SISU has said at the end of last season that we wouldn't be signing anyone as we've got no money and need...

seems to remember it was 30 something in the away end when I went last.

our range of ticket prices seem very small comapred to a lot of other clubs. guess that's down to having a stadium where there's no rubbish seats noone wants.

you can get an audio stream (if it works) through ccfc.co.uk, have to pay for it tho. I've got a horrible feeling they're switching from CWR to Mercia this year. They had the Norwich match on which was a feed from Mercia and it wasn't good!

for any particular reason? I've heard rumblings, not from anywhere I'd particularly pay attention to, that the coucil aren't intrested in selling to anyone as they're making money out of it. Could be a stumbling block for any potential takeover that has 100% ownership in the business plan.

at the moment it is. the first choice XI could probably get us around mid table but once we start hitting injuries and suspensions we could have big problems and despite what anyone says there's no way things going on in the boardroom don't have an impact on players. I'm not going to get...

I'm an eternal optimist when it comes to the city and normally this time of year will be telling everyone one how this is our year and promotions on the cards. Nothing like that this year. To be honest if we have still got a club at the end of the season and haven't gone down it will be a job...

I think they've just picked up on the squad strength and assume we will struggle which we most likely will. The difference this year could be that the fans won't turn on Thorn the way they have on past managers as they know he has no money to spend and is stuck with what he's got. The board...

i think you can change teams when you're a kid. My Dad stopped going to the City long before I was born so I wasn't raised sky blue and supported Everton early on as they were winning everything and on TV the most. That changed when I went to my first City game, Arsenal at home in 86, I was 12...

to be effective the best thing to do would be to have a demo outside the ground and then not go in to the game. the slide in attendances last season seemed to add about £2m a year to the losses, a few games with very low attendance should get the message across.
