    12,570 last season, 9,332 the season before. Tickets £18-20 last season, £22-27 season before. Do you think ticket revenues were more last season or the season before?

    Northampton away

    When we're trying to get people to support our plight the last thing we need is any trouble.

    Coventry City fans to discuss possibility of supporter-led takeover

    July 2009 we sold Dann and Fox. So before they went under Ranson we'd also paid money for Eastwood, Westward, Gunnarson, McPake and Bell.

    The prices were massively reduced last year.

    Its not been a glorious start. Odds on Trump not lasting the full term down to 5/2. The alternative facts thing is like something out of 1984. He might also be in trouble because of his twitter account, which should surprise nobody. The Presidential Records Act and Freedom of Information Act...

    Coventry City fans to discuss possibility of supporter-led takeover

    As far as anyone can tell money isn't being taken out so as I see it increasing the crowds does two things: 1) increases the money coming in to the club therefore giving us more to spend. Sure when it comes to it that might not happen but that's a fight to have then rather than just dismissing...

    What Sporting Event ?

    Did the tour when I was out there for a couple of days working. There was a Sheffield Shield match going on and we saw Steve Waugh get a century. Wasn't much busier than a country championship game.

    If we go down will Mowbray go down as one of our worst ever managers?

    Whatever your opinion on the budget I doubt there's many who thing we are in the bottom 3 or 4 for budget so you have to say with what he had to work with he massively underperformed. We had weeks of just waiting for deals to be finalised followed by what seemed to be a made rush to get anyone...

    Southend Groundsman Sacked after game called off

    A lot of other games in the area off though and doesn't one of their stands block any sunlight from getting on the pitch (from memory, might be mixing it up with somewhere else).

    Southend Groundsman Sacked after game called off

    Must be more to it, that seems incredibly harsh. Article says covers were on and heaters in use. What else were they expecting? See on their site they've signed goal machine Nouble. 18 goals in 151 games, what a strike rate.

    Coventry City fans to discuss possibility of supporter-led takeover

    Fan ownership is a great concept but I really struggle to see how we can do it with the unique position we are in. Hopefully the Trust have a workable plan they can share with us. The Portsmouth fans played a big part in rescuing their club and fair play to them for that but it is vastly...

    Always happens, think its just people that want to smash things up not people who are really part of this, or any other protest.

    Walsall-last home game

    There's no corporation tax if we don't make a profit but we'd still have to pay income tax and given footballers salaries that's going to be a significant amount. And while the interest isn't being paid it is still appearing on the accounts.

    Fans need to look in the mirror

    Not guilty! Blaming the fans is a very dangerous path to take. Lets face it, anyone who was there on Saturday was not having an enjoyable afternoon so how can you blame anyone for not going. The flip side of that is 8K is low for a city our size, irrespective of how bad our recent history is...

    Walsall-last home game

    Actually I was responding to someone else saying nobody would buy us. If they believe that then what is the point in protesting for SISU to go? What about cashflow? Look at a situation like 12 months ago when SISU gave a short term loan, how would the Trust cope with such things. Hopefully that...
