    Highfield Road Post-match Electronica

    When I first started watching The City at Highfield Road in the early 90s I remember there was an electronica tune that was regularly played over the PA system after the match had ended as we all shuffled out in the cold and dark. I always wanted to find out what it was but never did (and Shazam...

    Concept Kits

    So now we actually know what this season's kit looks like, I thought I'd go back and do some more Photoshop experimentation around the underlying concept: of remixing the 92-94 kit design. The pattern itself is incredibly difficult to accurately reproduce, so I've attempted to make something...

    Worst ever signing?

    Some great choices for other clubs there, but what about us?

    League Two Predictions

    So, inspired by thread about The Run In I decided to have a go at creating a tool for predicting the outcome of the league table based on the remaining fixtures, which you can find here: http://predictor.ccfc.nu/. It now has a go at predicting the actual results for the remainder of the season...

    CCFC Fantasy Retro Kit

    For anybody who is interested in such things, I’ve made the fantasy CCFC shirt with retro badge discussed in the thread I made about a new club badge (who knew that’d be such a hot topic?) available for sale at a small web store here. Both home and away tops are available in sizes from Small to...

    A new CCFC club badge

    A couple of years ago I was preparing for my wedding, and lucky enough to be getting a tailored suit made. I had this crazy idea of the jacket lining be an authentic reproduction print of the 1987 FA Cup winning CCFC home kit, and I thought it’d be fun to have the club badge embroidered on the...

    Help wanted! Do you own the 1992-94 home kit?

    I‘m looking to get hold of the 1992-94 CCFC home kit. It doesn’t matter what size so long as it’s in reasonably good condition. As it’s quite rare I’m sure most people wouldn’t be prepared to part with it if they have one, but I‘m happy to pay just to loan it temporarily (to make a high-quality...

    Pictures from the 1987 FA Cup final

    I'm trying to get hold of some decent quality photos from the ‘87 FA Cup final, and since Google isn't helping I figured there might be some here who might be able to help out. I'm specifically looking to find any decent photos showing the players from behind (so you can see the numbers on the...

    Calm as Hindu cows…

    The continuing implosion of CCFC (the business) is beginning to feel like the final few steps on the road to momentous events at the club. It seems highly plausible that administration, and with it relegation to League One, are only just around the corner. To this I say: at last! I've not...

    We're in the wrong division

    So we're hoping to sign Cody McDonald for £400,000 (fingers crossed on that one) and meanwhile Leicester City have had a bid of £6.5m for Rangers’ Nikica Jelavic rejected. Six point five million. How are we in the same division as a team that can afford that much? How can Leicester afford...

    Just how culpable are Coventry Council in all this?

    So now the council are denying that they've got any meetings with SISU lined up — worrying in itself, but there's an interesting tidbit in there, with Cllr John Mutton saying the following: Wait a second — having a sustainable and robust business strategy is a prerequisite to having a...

    Ten Years of Misery

    I was thinking tonight about how since we've been relegated our seasons have tended to follow a similar pattern — starting well, fading around new year, before relegation form takes root and we barely survive. Thinking about it I decided to draw up some charts to show our league position over...
