    Butts Park Arena - put up or shut up !

    Why does it need to be 20k+? How many times have we broken that barrier this season? Or last? Other than the odd game here and there the 12k is close to the right figure. We're about to be a Division 4 club. 15k is the figure I think ideal for now, so there is scope for a few bigger crowds, but...

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

    We could still finish 14th, assuming that the teams that play each other end up having their games abandoned and are awarded zero points.

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

    As much as Pep Guardiola is overhyped, the one thing you have to say is that he wants his teams to attack mercilessly. Perhaps that's the model we should work towards. Defenders in L1 and L2 are generally poor, so the 'we'll score one more than you' rule may be successful (not with our current...

    Long Term Prediction Thread

    I think that next season will be hellish. Bottom half for sure. We have to build a brand new squad (yet again), and I doubt we'll bring in 11 new first team players. Even if we do, they'll take time to gel (copyright A.Thorn) and by the time they do we'll be fighting to stay afloat. Re: the...

    Mondays meeting with Fisher

    We want answers to pertinent questions, but those questions are rarely asked, and when they are TF isn't given the chance to answer. Instead of assuming he talks shit and shouting him down, people should actually listen to the answers and offer counter-arguments and facts that back them up. Just...

    Mondays meeting with Fisher

    As much as I hate to say it, and I expect to get pelters for this, but 12k is probably the right size for L1 or L2. Bournemouth have managed to get to the Prem with a stadium that size. If the club play it right, and have an expandable stadium to allow for future success, then it will probably...

    Forget that. Let's just shout him down and call him names. That's more constructive, apparently.

    For the love of God. Let the man speak. This is embarrassing.

    Butts Park Arena is on, so says Tim.

    The questions are inane. Too much name calling and shouting, and no substance to what is being asked.

    Player wages around mid-table. As expected, I'd say.

    I've resorted to a desktop PC to watch it via periscope.

    Mondays meeting with Fisher

    As hard as it is, questions have to be asked without emotion, and responses listened to. All this shouting is pointless, childish and wasting the little time we have to ask questions.

    Did I miss someone calling Sepalla a 'pig and a dog', to quote Tim?

    Expectations

    I don't know one single person who genuinely believed we could stay up. No-one is expecting a miracle. Re: DMC, it could be argued that Robins was instrumental in his form - look at Hazard's displays last season, when he didn't play for his manager. Robins could be good, bad or indifferent, but...

    Robins on Talksport very soon!

    Scouting still not in place. Unreal.

    Robins Favourites?

    To be honest, I don't expect to recognise any names when we do sign players. L2 football is something I last took an interest in during the mid-80s, and that was thanks to Steve Bull's ridiculous scoring records (I know, I know - but he was crazily good at putting one in the onion bag). Other...

    ROBINS CONFIRMED...ON THE OFFAL...

    Reading some of these posts, it seems like people think Slade was obviously a terrible choice. It wasn't, based on his track record. Never been relegated, 2x manager of the year awards, the ability to build a club on a shoestring. Yes, he turned out to be a complete failure, but let's not...
