    A Rare Success Story

    I ate at a pub like that recently, tables very close together. Guy next to me spent the evening slagging someone I knew off who worked at Jaguar, and I found out the guy was about to "be put on gardening leave". Not sure he knew that himself at the time.

    Lost pubs of Coventry

    Used to go to the "townies" reunion at London Road club. It was held for everyone that Used to frequent the town in the 70's. Great fun seeing a lot of the old faces you recognised even if you didn't actually know them well at the time. Probably about 100 or so people turned up each time.

    Tim Fisher

    This thread has slowly turned from being about Tim, and what a twat he is, to he's alright really and Joy doesn't have to sell, to how it's CCC, Wasps and the CovTel's fault we're in this mess. Surprised Nick hasn't popped up with his "this isn't all co-incidence" or "PR machine at work"...

    Tm hints at the truth

    I'm not trying to "make out" anything Nick. I gave it as a possible reason as to why he chased those players, IF his budget had changed.

    With Venus managing us, will we have to wait a week for the "post match interview" to be cleared by the board before we can hear it?

    Tm hints at the truth

    It's funny you should say that, as I mentioned on another thread that I had heard his budget had been halved for this season. If that was true, or even close to being true, I guess it would depend on when he was told that, to decide if he was going after the wrong players or not.

    RCC

    The only problem with this last, is that most people thought Murphy was a "real" keeper. He was certainly experienced, yet he gave away lots of goals by making mistakes.

    Things you miss most about the 'old' Coventry?

    Actually, reminds me of a mate of a mate when I was 18 or so... He also had a motorcycle accident, and was "killed". He woke up on a slab in the morgue. Surprised quite a few people that did..
