    To be honest after resigning from the board you wouldn't really expect to walk back into the boardroom at the next game would you? It's not called the peoplewhohaveresignedfromtheboardroom. That would be massive!

    To be honest, and don't want to sound all "just kids books", never read any of them. Now His Dark Materials by Phillip Pullman is another matter, the Anti-Narnia, shame they made such a balls up of the screen version.

    Of course it's bated breath, "baited" breath would smell of maggots!

    Ricoh a non starter for SISU

    Fair enough, felt the same during the McAllister year when we didn't win a single game the whole second half of the season. In the end my pre-match drinks in the Rose and Crown became during and after drinks whilst watching Soccer Saturday.

    He probably doesn't think he has to convert the converted to be honest. If you don't have questions to ask, then he wouldn't need to call you to answer them would he?

    Ricoh a non starter for SISU

    Sorry, thought you said you'd only pay to go to away games this season. Must have been somebody else.

    Ricoh a non starter for SISU

    And it's a fiver with a guaranteed Wembley ticket. The rest of the time though they're protesting!

    Ricoh a non starter for SISU

    You don't watch their home games in Coventry do you?

    If she isn't now, she would be corrupted pretty soon after meeting me!

    To be fair to Robinson, he did use to do quite of lot "glad-handing" amongst the "plebs" at half-time at Highfield Road.

    Maybe you should ask him yourself? Didn't have those facts at my fingertips, so couldn't question his assertion, however he may have a good reason for his view? Who the hell is Parkin? Not that fat lump we tried to sign is it??

    The Golden Share...

    Why has nobody mentioned this "Golden Share" thing before on here? It sounds important, thank God somebody has finally brought it out into the public domain.

    I'm surprised I didn't have Coleman on the phone every half hour the amount of stick I gave him!

    Somebody requested it through PM for him(must be his PA or wife or something!). I thought if I'm going to be critical, at least afford him the chance to answer the criticisms directly, which fair enough he did. If had more time would have tried to ask a few questions about the bid, Haskell...

    To be fair to him, he didn't need to, it's not like the ones questioning are in a majority on here(I seem doomed to be in a minority!), so we're hardly influential.

    I don't think that anything he said was in confidence, he did say that Joe Elliott was never allowed a voting role on the board, so he and Ranson were always outvoted by Sisu(who even made decisions on buying bottled water for the team). Don't know what the make-up of the board was at the time...

    Gary Hoffman

    Fair play to him, called me personally this morning to talk through any issues. Certainly seems very genuine as a Coventry fan, and doing what he feels best for the club, only a brief chat, but did explain a little more about his place on the board(and wshes he had left sooner than he did)...

    CET: Sky Blues take Coventry City Council to high court over bailout

    Not at all, it is planned at an unspecified future debt to get that loan from the Government(a loan by the way, don't know if interest charged or not though on Prudential Borrowing loans), but it has come out of local funds for now at least. Whoever has the club, be it Sisu, Haskell, chancer...

    Tim Fisher Rumour

    I can't believe that it's me you're accusing of having their head in the sand. Unless of course it's a self-portrait and you're waiting for HIV to come from behind?
