    The Coventry Telegraph

    Seriously? Match reports, player interviews, transfer rumours, court reporting, match previews, injury news, fan stories, managerial press conferences. All the stuff that connects a football club with its local community and engages fans who might otherwise know no better. And yes, sometimes...

    The Coventry Telegraph

    I don't want to insult your intelligence by explaining what purpose a local paper serves for a football club and its fanbase. Which is why I find it weird when people call for them to be banned (like they did when McNulty threw a hissy fit over a nothing story). As I've said many times, the CT...

    The Coventry Telegraph

    You may be right! My mistake. But as someone who doesn't frequent the local Portsmouth press, it was the CT where I first heard the story. And you're wrong - nothing could be worse than the 'content' writers. But as someone who's forced to rely on their coverage, I'm not going to cheer for...

    The Coventry Telegraph

    1. You wouldn't have even heard of Chaplin if it wasn't for the Telegraph breaking the news that we were interested 2. If there are no developments in whether we are close to bringing a striker, then it's hard to write a story about it. Unless you'd like them to splash a literally nothing story...

    Pre Season Starts Today!

    A few squad number tidbits, read into them what you will: * Ponticelli's now wearing 19 (was Andreu) * Andreu now wearing 22 (was Dev Kelly Evans) * Bayliss is now wearing 20 (was Dion Kelly Evans) * Ogogo is wearing 16 (was Beavon...can't tell what he's wearing now) * Morgan Williams is...

    Ryan Haynes has been sold

    This argument can be best summed up as "Grendel knows best". Good luck with that. Haynes was fine. Good luck to the guy. Hope that it's us and not Shrewsbury who come out on top with the left back swap.

    Ominous Marc McNulty tweet?

    The CT is pretty dreadful these days. But it's dumb for the same fans who full-on booed McNulty earlier this season to want them banned for quoting someone else's lukewarm hot take.

    Ominous Marc McNulty tweet?

    Hate to say it, but McNulty is being precious. Slightly concerning that he's that worked up by one word at the end of a mostly positive article. God help us if he gets an AK-47 tattooed on his leg this summer.

    Ominous Marc McNulty tweet?

    So should the CT only report nice comments about the club? Maybe they can replace Andy Turner with the Moscow Evening Telegraph sports editor.

    LGBTQ City Fans

    Like anyone in any line of work, I think they'd rather be known for their hard work and achievements. Reducing your entire career to being "the first gay [x]" doesn't sound like the great prize you make it out to be. Without meaning to sound like I'm having a go, I don't think your...

    LGBTQ City Fans

    So let me get this right - any player who comes out immediately changes their legacy to something completely irrelevant to their career, but you still have no idea why they might be reluctant to do that?

    Match Thread Accrington Stanley - Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 14th Oct

    Only seven teams in the league have scored fewer goals than us. Such a weird season already.

    By what metric is Nazon lazy? Or are you pulling a Ron Atkinson here?

    The Worst Chairman

    Richardson's strategy was based on a complete fantasy, and screwed us over for years. He was our Peter Ridsdale. Under-rated pick here. McGinnity simply wasn't up to the task of getting out of the titanic mess that was left for him by his predecessors, and merely compounded the problem with...

    2nd Signing - Duckens Nazon

    Have a feeling this guy will either take the league by storm, or be completely hopeless, with nothing in between. With a name like Duckens, how could he be anything else? Looking forward to seeing him play.

    Match Thread Liverpool u23 Match Thread (2.30PM Kick-Off Saturday)

    Tend to agree, but didn't we bring in Armstrong and Murphy after we'd played all our pre-season games?

    iFollow App Due this week

    I'm sure you'll be shocked - shocked! - to find out some people may use your VPN lessons to watch live games they might otherwise have attended in person. I'm glad you're planning to be virtuous yourself, but not sure why you're pretending other people will do the same given the option.
