    Mowbray's initial demands

    This is why I said elsewhere that the majority would be reinvested by the owners. Or at least a substantial amount that TM may have insisted upon at the outset. Not so sure though TM would have quite got such a concrete promise in his contract as you suggest here. But the pressure would...

    Would you sell him for £10m

    10m? Hell YES. For a player believed to be a future star not yet anything other than potential. So far he has played a handful of games and there is no guarantee he will achieve that start status is there? We have not exactly missed him have we? The issue is what will happen with the 10m? I...

    CCFC take up 2 year extension at Ricoh

    Tell TM that! I'm sure he knows what he could do given a few quid. If not then we should all give up on promotion now if we maintain the view you have. It's football and isn't always as simple as the best squads. Leicester are a clear example of that. QPR should be at the top end of the...

    CCFC take up 2 year extension at Ricoh

    Stupot - have faith sometimes top managers can make a silk purse out of a sours ear. look at Leicester currently leading the premiership and it's considered by some Chelsea and man City have the best squads amounting to 100's of millions! Of course it's tough but momentum and big crowds can...

    CCFC take up 2 year extension at Ricoh

    As said before it's all smoke and mirrors. We will stay at the Ricoh which suits both sides. Eventually a bridge will need to be crossed. Will WASPS want to remain in Coventry or call a day on their sojourn? If new owners are found for CCFC when we hit the premier league then maybe those new...

    Jose to Man Utd?

    Just a feeling. Van Gaal is failing and Jose is now available. Fergie always wanted hin to succeed him but he was never available at the right moment. I would not be surprised.

    Rip Jimmy Hill

    His contribution to Coventry City (The Sky Blues) can not be measured. His contribution to the modern game equally enormous. Match of the Day and other TV appearances helped all of us realise here was a true legend of a man loved by so many. A man of football with an abundance of class who realy...

    Just a thought...next striker

    IF Adam Armstrong does leave (I doubt by the way) or perhaps as competition for places and cover for injury as the long season progresses, what about Leon Clarke? Bury are beginning to tail off now and he could be tempted back?

    Oldham (Home) Match Thread

    Think someone is due a hiding from us. After last weeks farce we should be in the mood to destroy them. But football being what it is at times any win will work for me.

    Coventry City must match Tony Mowbray's ambitions if they want to keep him

    Rumour, true or not I can't help thinking it's mischievous at best from the CT. Lets face it, the thought of TM leaving at this stage would be so disappointing to the fans but moreover very disruptive and worrying for the players he has built around this current campaign wouldn't it? A very...

    Butts Park Arena is new home

    there's a lot of valid points being made here. OSB has made the case for how WASP deal with their situation but I do beleive not everything will remain rosey for them in the long term as they would appear to be reliant on 'outside' income streams all of which have risk to them at any moment...

    Butts Park Arena is new home

    You are right Stu, there is no sugar daddy - for now. get to the big time and all that can change very quickly. Ask Bournemouth, Southampton about promotion possibilities? I'm not saying we will win back to back promotions, it may take longer and there is no certainty we will go up this season...

    Butts Park Arena is new home

    I find myself agreeing with Italia a lot here. My point was that money talks and if we were suddenly thrust into two promotions on the bounce and the money of the premier league I would sit back and see just how WASP are going to deal with that? They are a top side at what they do. yet they...

    next 2 games

    I was working today and when I checked the result i was surprised tbh. Then I saw the highlights and read what had happened. Sometimes football can do that. I don't think this will affect us in any way at all and 6 points to come from the next two actually looks more certain now. I'm worried...

    Butts Park Arena is new home

    All this talk about the Butts. Frankly I sense it's all smoke and mirrors. We will remain at the Ricoh for many reasons but here are a few... 1. WASP (ACL) need the cities football club with potentially large crowd drawing income streams and a nice rental income for years to come. Rather than...

    Sheffield United (Away) Match Thread

    No worries here I think. keep it tight at the back and if we hit form then we will score 2 or 3 for probably no reply.

    Burton and Walsall

    Seems our two rivals at the top have both gained new managers at a time when conventional wisdom would suggest a dangerous time to make such brave changes? Will it back fire on them both with a lack of focus and be seen as a "confident sapping two fingers at the players" from the departing...

    Seldom mentioned legends...

    Chippo and Hadji deserve mention. Legend status belongs to the likes of Tommy Hutchison and Ernie Hunt along side Willie Carr - remember that free kick? Neil Martin could head a ball like a bullet! ANd of course Robbie Keane and a certain George Curtis.

    Supporters' group tells Coventry City FC owners to clarify stadium plans

    I think it's all talk quite frankly without substance. IF CCFC get promoted and then again to the top flight in the next say 3 years we will all be singing a very different tune. WASP are more likely to end up our tenants...
