    Jobello

    I thought he had a good game yesterday. However, I haven't seen anyone mention his comedy header in the second half. He had the chance to do a Keith Houchen as a cross came in from the right. He got his timing all wrong and "nosed" the ball down into the turf and back up into his face. I think...

    Match Thread Bolton Wanderers vs. Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 10th Aug

    For the second goal, both the linesman and the ref were in conversation for several seconds. The linesman didn't initially flag for offside or start running back to the half way line to indicate a goal. He made no decision. They presumably were discussing what had just happened. Certainly the...

    Transfer Rumour To put things into perspective.....

    The first goal that apparently should have stood would have completely changed the out look of that game. The Bolton boys would have had nothing to defend and the awful tension that gripped our players and fans from the start would have been broken. I think we would have run out easy winners. I...

    Only going off the comments that Mr mae himself. He seems to have changed what he is saying (no criticism of Robins. He has been a great manager for us).

    Bolton tickets

    I think the biggest losers are all City fans, not CCC or businesses. I say this and I have a season ticket at St Andrews. I enjoyed last week but that is beside the point. We are Coventry and need to play in our own City. Pressure needs to be put on all sides. Sisu have said that they want to...

    Loan player watch

    Something seems to have changed. At the start of preseason Robin’s stated that playing at St Andrews would not affect his budget, he was being backed and we were going for it. He reiterated this at the kit launch where he said he wanted another 3 players (by that stage we already had our ten new...

    Mark Robins was hinting at the kit launch do that Mason will really have to be on the top of his game to keep McCallum out this season. He obviously rates him. When he played last season you could see the potential he has even though he was a bit rocky at times.

    Bolton tickets

    Bought mine about 10 minutes ago, looks like initial allocation will sell our really quickly. Most seats were gone in the two blocks I looked at. Don’t know if they will open the upper tier.

    Bolton tickets

    I agree with this completely. Who Lukaku signs for is more important than whether Bury football club survives or not. It is all wrong. Far more column inches and air time devoted to PL players than to a town or a city’s football club.

    Bolton tickets

    I think that the real hammer blow for this club was the sale of the stadium to Wasps. Since that happened it has always felt as though our future is bleak. Bolton will survive and thrive again. Bury's future is more uncertain but I would think that their fans will still have a team to support in...

    There was indeed. Wasn't there also a crowd disaster at Bolton pre war? Just looked on Wikipedia - here it is below. Actually just post war 1946. Unbelievably the game was played. Burnden Park disaste The Burnden Park disaster was a human crush that occurred on 9 March 1946 at Burnden Park...

    Transfer Rumour Matt Godden

    I don't see what is in it for Wolves in loaning Bright out. His value will decrease as his contract runs down. Surely from their point of view it is better to either sell or sign him on a longer contract, something he might not be prepared to do if he wants to play games.

    Being pedantic but Murphy was a good finisher.

    Tyler Walker deal done???

    I am obsessed with Coventry City and have been since the first time I went to a game 52 years ago. You are probably the same. A lot of people are more objective than you or I and although classing themselves as supporters, see the game and the club as entertainment. If they like what they see...

    Tyler Walker deal done???

    I will be like you, going to games home and away. If we get to Wembley and we have 45k turn up ( never mind 30k) I will be delighted. I don’t understand your point of view.

    I was there today.it was a good game and a good atmosphere. However if that is our only game at St Andrews then good. It is still one too many. We need to be back in Coventry ASAP. Our absence may be hurting Wasps but it is certainly harming CCFC as well. You don’t have to be a genius to work...
