    Best player from our past to help us with relegation battle

    Terry Yorath for me - he played 99 games for CCFC between 1976-1979. This guy took no prisoners in centre mid breaking up attacks, taking players out and creating chances for us - opposition players were genuinely scared shitless when he was on the park. Centre mids of Yorath and Wisey...

    Coventry City - managerial graveyard?

    In addition what about our Graveyard Strikers: Below in chronological order since 2002/2003 and including 2011/2012 are the numerous strikers we have bought/loaned that have had previous reputations as competent goalscorers but ended up not making their mark: PUSB Julian Jochamin Lee...

    THE BEST HEADER OF A BALL - Top 3 for CCFC 1967-2012 ???

    Yes Mark was a throwback from his dad Tony and was just a bairn at the time of Tony's association with CCFC. A friend of mine JC used to babysit Mark little knowing that this whippersnapper of a lad would eventually become virtually a world class centreforward of his day playing for clubs...

    THE BEST HEADER OF A BALL - Top 3 for CCFC 1967-2012 ???

    Tony Hateley was indeed one of the best headers of a ball in his time - unfortunately he only played 17 games for CCFC (1968-1969) scoring just 4 goals. He played for several clubs and always scored goals: Notts County A Villa Chelsea Liverpool CCFC Birmingham Notts County Oldham I remember...

    LONGEST TRAVELLED CCFC FANS - examples ???

    Just wondering the extent people travel to each home game at the Ricoh. Couple next to me travel from Bath and return every home game even night games - that's 113 miles (Google Earth) x 2 = 226 miles round trip. Anyone beat that ??? PUSB

    RATINGS FOLKS V Barnsley

    This love-in is based on us having one of the BEST centre backs in our league (arguably THE best) who gives us outstanding performances week in week out, could easily make the transition to the Prem League and is the sort of player most clubs dream about. But we've got him - so let's enjoy...

    Sheff's best position

    Sheffers DOES prefer to play the central strikers role - he always makes runs down the channels in this position and does indeed put the ball away more frequently than our current forwards. PUSB

    CWR Ian - Is he real 2

    With respect KD Plat's performance was surely better than "OK" - check the consensus of people rating each player six out of eleven rated him MOM - PLUS he took out at least two players when receiving high and short balls to head, chest and feet. Please give some credit to a guy bursting with...

    CWR Ian - Is he real 2

    I forgot to add on the way back to my club in the car I actually yelled out obscenities when this prat was "talking" - I could do without it at my age. I think he would be delighted if we got relegated as his whole personna is totally and utterly negative - stay away from the Ricoh we don't...

    Platt

    Excellent summation Tankie. Our Clive is just one awesome player at the moment, despite at least three players hanging from his neck most times he delivers quality knock ons, layoffs and guided headers - at 34 he puts a serious shift in every game and I cannot understand some of the derogatory...

    CWR Ian - Is he real 2

    How is it this guy is first on the scene on CWR after each game, for a start !!! He must be a deliberate WUM with all the crap he says. When asked "did you like the last half hour" answer, it was rubbish. When asked whether Plattini was MOM answer NO As the commentator implied he...
