Why don't you set up a competing forum?

It's Nick's site so if he "resigns" the site disappears. Frankly, I don't think Nick gets enough credit for the work he does to keep this site up & running for us - I doubt the handful of adverts are doing anything more than covering costs, if that. If you don't like it, don't use it. If you...

Who would you leave out? Personally, I'd go with Barkley and Sterling, assuming Sturridge is fit. If Sturridge not fit enough then take Sterling.

2 because he's already said Delph not going.

Exactly why Dier isn't a defender. I don't disagree with taking only 3 CBs, just hope it doesn't come to Dier having to play there.

Still lives in Tile Hill I believe so not beyond realms of possibility. Not sure if he's what we need though.

James Vaughan would be a good signing.

So glad this thread has been bumped up.

Got to remember it was different back then. Players were earning relatively small salaries and club owners were making huge profits. The stars weren't getting the benefits of their performances. Where I agree is that these days it's gone too far the other way, so maybe something needs...

They won the league but that wasn't really the point I was making. They took a club with genuine history and wiped it out. Sometimes have to be careful what you wish for. As I say, wouldn't be against it if it was done sympathetically.

When they took over Salzburg they changed logo, changed colours and even tried to list their founding date as 2005. Their fans weren't quite so happy.

Chelsea's Joe Cole being linked... http://www.coventrycity-mad.co.uk/news/tmnw/city_possible_cole_candidates_459373/index.shtml

Remember the days when you could almost guarantee promotion in the Championship by spending £1million. Parachute payments have ruined the league. Those payments should be shared amongst all FL teams. Anyway, I digress.

They wanted to buy the freehold I believe so that it would allow them to develop on the surrounding land. They obviously didn't offer a price that was agreeable to CCC, and that's when this silliness & underhand tactics (from both sides) all started.

Now, would I want this for Coventry City..... Personally, I have no issue. It's something that could bring success. It's maybe even something that Jimmy Hill would have considered. It would have to be done sympathetically though. I could handle being called Red Bull Coventry City (let's face...

The club they took over was at level 5 of the German pyramid, the top level outside the control of the DFB (German Football Federation). Basically, the team was eventually selected as the DFB had vetoed (or clubs had pulled out) them taking over a club at a higher level and renaming them. RB in...

Not entirely true. They bought the league registration of a village club who were on the verge of going bust. The village in question is pretty much a suburb of Leipzig, so the team weren't really moved away from their own fans (equivalent of somewhere like Binley Woods or Burton Green), just to...

Threads on here making you think that??? o_O
