    What Happened?

    Think he is quite quick to be honest, but can only do about 15 yard bursts and then he's knackered. Think it was either Gillingham or Yeovil where he had the ball in lots of space and he ran straight at the opposition defence, and definitely at pace, weaving his way as he went. He started off...

    Ex Player Watch

    FA Cup - Saturday 27th September 2014 Arguably the best individual performance of the round was at Terrace Road, where veteran striker Iyseden Christie, 37, scored six goals for Halesowen Town in their 7-1 win at 10th-tier side Ellistown & Ibstock United FC.

    What Happened?

    You may well be right. Not been overly impressed with anyone yet to be honest, O'Brien apart. Hoping Johnson will be a boon to the squad and that Nouble and Jackson will start bagging us goals with regularity, but McQuoid doesn't impress me much, Alsop and Tudgay and Swanson, not at all. It...

    What Happened?

    We have some degree of pace (Haynes is quick, as is Clarke, as is Jackson and Fleck is no slouch either. Not seen Coulibaly much at all, but he's supposed to be fast), but we do lack strength for sure. We've been here before when we have got outmuscled. makes me wonder why we went for players...

    Why our crowds are awful

    I still maintain however that the feel good factor of us coming home after all the pleading and begging, would have resulted in more interest than just that first game back. Was said then by many that the Yeovil crowd was down because it was two games in a week. Well on Saturday it was 2 weeks...

    What Happened?

    Haynes on the left can't get forwards. he is being targeted by the opposition and being denied space and no one is going out wide to support him when he has the ball, so invariably he either has to pass it long or inside. Clarke is getting more space to move forwards, but again is getting very...

    You just wait until later in the season. We will be dreaming of 3 goals in 4 games then. ;)

    Forget Rugby

    We have an NFL team here in Coventry? :o I'm sure I'd have read about it in the paper. How are the Jets doing anyway? Successful season?

    That would make you mayor with CC4L.

    final series of boardwalk empire

    Probably because it is only on Sky Atlantic. I'm with Virgin and we don't get Sky Atlantic!! Grrr!!!!!

    Forget Rugby

    I'd love an American Football team here. Be first in line for a season ticket. I absolutely adore the game. That's the fantasy in my head talking though rather than the practicality of having a team here and how it impinges on everything etc. That's me talking in terms of ideal dreams only...

    Why our crowds are awful

    It's fine getting rid of Sisu, but to replace them with who exactly? Number one priority surely has to be City staying at the Ricoh and us getting the product right on the pitch. That includes fans coming through the turnstiles and filling the stadium. We have success, then CCFC will be much...

    Formation and team

    What we have to be is adaptable. It's fine to play 5-3-2 .... when it is warranted. Just don't think it right to stick rigidly to one formation come hell or high water. We have to be able to adapt.

    Why our crowds are awful

    I thought everyone was so happy we were back home that they'd give the team their full committed loyalty past one single home game. It seems to be a case of 'How wonderful we're back home, but now we're back home it's everything back to normal.' If numbers had turned up previously while we were...

    Steven pressley

    Totally agree. He needs to turn this round fast otherwise the fans will indeed start to really get on his back.

    Steven pressley

    I'm mot liking him at this very moment for sure, but he has been very good at bringing kids through and giving them a chance, which is something many of our previous managers have been reluctant to do and he is willing to change. Last season we were shipping in goals and giving goals away late...

    How can SP say this squad is better????

    Exactly Nick. We do have some good players here and I would say Fleck, Johnson, O'Brien, Jackson, Clarke, Webster, Thomas, Haynes, Nouble should all be good enough for this division. We need a system that fits the players, not players that we just try to fit into a system.
