    Tell you what, that's a hell of a save even though it was offside

    Match Thread Coventry City - Hull City Match Thread - Saturday 9th Aug

    Games early in the season can often be quite bonkers. All it takes is one team marginally fitter than the other, one set of players less mentally prepared, one set a little more rusty. You'd expect us to win on paper, but we could just as easily have a few moments of madness and lose 3-0. I...

    How well will Wrexham and Birmingham do?

    Saddo that I am, I went through an article that asked local journalists for each club who their top 2 would be, and who their top 6 would be. A small number had us top 2 (including one who had us as Champions, and that wasn't Andy Turner), and 18 had us top 6. Only a few had Birmingham in the...

    Transfer Rumour 25/26 Summer Transfer Window

    Vik has been nominated for the Ballon D'Or. Good pull for us to say we can develop elite talent.

    The Championship better than the Premier League

    The Premier League might have all the money and the hype, but it’s lost all of the unpredictability that made football exciting. It's just a product now, not a competition. I want to get promoted, but I just know I'll have all of my footballing enjoyment sucked away. Sad indictment of the modern...

    Match Thread Coventry City v St Pauli (Friendly) - Sat 2 Aug 3:30 PM

    We gave Real Betis a good game, and giving these a good challenge as well - we certainly don't look like a 'lesser team' against foreign top-flight opposition (albeit St Pauli are only just joining that level). Hopefully bodes well for the season ahead.

    I suspect that the day this was written he'd just learnt a new word and wanted to use it as many times as possible.

    Was shocked by JH's revelation that she was back on the ketamine, tbh.

    Blog CCFC Analysis - Ellis Simms - The Enigma

    I want him to succeed, but don't believe he will. He lacks the aggression you need to be a top player. In fact, he needs one of those little dog collars that gives an electric shock wrapped around his bollocks so that Frank can fire him up a bit mid-game.

    Transfer Rumour 25/26 Summer Transfer Window

    At the start of Lampard's reign he seemed to be incredibly keen on Wilson, despite the fact he was injured - maybe influenced by the golden glove status from a couple of years ago. Would be interested to know his view now.

    Item 25/26 Coventry Kit

    It was in the Sega annual report thing, which is why people are saying it's 'confirmed' on social media. But FM 25 was in the previous year's, so I don't think it's a guarantee unfortunately.
