    Mediation talks underway

    And neither does Lucas and Mutton turning up to matches but you and Pete try to make out how vital that is.

    The Butts - CRFC Confirms it is willing to join mediation talks

    Similar to those NIMBYs in Stoneleigh and Baginton who buggered up Thomsonfly. The airport was there when they moved in and the stadium was there when they moved into their retirement flats. Get over it I would say.

    The Butts - CRFC Confirms it is willing to join mediation talks

    Ah this old chesnut. Having a stadium owned by the current owners or whatever is preferable to not owning one at all and renting from someone who has zero interest in the club. Also there would be something tangible for potential new owners to be attracted by. Manchester United no longer own...

    The Butts - CRFC Confirms it is willing to join mediation talks

    Yep that's how I feel too. Let's just get on with it rather than saying it can't work because.... I know before too long we will be arguing about capacity and that it needa to be X amount. Again, it doesn't matter at the moment.

    Anyone recall this game ?

    No, I don't either. I had an ST so presume I would've gone.

    And it is patently obvious that the Council don't either. What's your point? That it is SISU 100% to blame?

    Mediation talks underway

    I've supported the club for decades. So what? There's support and there's support. We needed more than them turning up every other week to watch a football match. And don't ruin it for yourself by saying there are Fisher and Seppalla fans, there are not. I'm sure you are older than 12.

    Mediation talks underway

    Ah, but we don't mention that. Just the stuff SISU did. We will soon seen the phrases "no choice", "backed into a corner", "what else were they supposed to do?", etc etc.

    And before SISU arrived on the scene the previous board tried to renegotiate the rent three months after we moved in and were told "no". Go figure.

    Oh yes, a day out at Wembley will stir them up, but after the final whistle? And I'm talking about the people of Coventry, not the football fan or the casual football fan, but the other 300K.

    Another Gilbert tease.

    I am going to defend the CT for once. There's a very interesting article on the website. "Five things we've learnt from the MK Dons defeat..." I like the new angle. Way to go, CT.

    Mediation talks underway

    Most Coventrians either don't know or care about the whys and wherefores of the CCFC saga. The city folk aren't supportive of their football club so why should they vote this shower out? If they do it certainly won't be anything to do with CCFC. Bin collections is more likely.

    Academy ground share

    I hate the Academy being thrown out of their facility in a stitch up between CCC and Wasps, but hey, we all have our foibles.

    Coventry City 1978-79

    Yep, the summer pull out in the CET and the league ladders in shoot made my summers back in the 70's.

    Match Thread Coventry v Port Vale Match Thread - Tuesday 21st Mar

    If I was Robins I would have three bags with defenders, midfielders and strikers written on them. Put all the players name on a bit on paper and put them in the appropriate bag. Choose a team at random and include U23 and some of the u18 squad. The only name that shouldn't be picked at random...

    Mediation talks underway

    It's not about the Council "doing the running", it's about calling SISUs bluff or bizarrely trying to help the local incumbent football club.

    Coventry City 1978-79

    Certainly a lot more than our current squad. Maybe someone should ask Tim tonight to look in any old out of the way cupboards at Ryton, might be some kit stashed in there. Would certainly boost our income.

    Coventry City 1978-79

    Best kit we ever had. Also, when I passed my test in 85 I bought a Citroen and had them for years. There used to be a bloke near Harbury on a farm who used to buy and sell them. Lovely cars back then.

    Mediation talks underway

    Nope, because many people do their PR for them. Many are on the "side" on CCC and Wasps already and that won't change. As for CCFC? Who cares?
