According to a report in the Times, any Wasps move to the Ricoh will be sanctioned by the game's governing bodies. Alex Lowe Last updated at 9:00PM, October 3 2014 The RFU and Premiership Rugby would rubber-stamp any request from London Wasps to play home games at the Ricoh Arena in Coventry...

Just noticed the current poll on the CCFC site: Who will be Coventry City's top-scorer? Callum Wilson Carl Baker Franck Moussa Not going to be seeing a lot of goals next season if they are expecting one of them to be our top scorer!

I noticed earlier this evening that Cardiff had received £62m for just being in the Premier League this last season and, while an ambitious owner of a football club might look at that figure and dream, CCFC fans are stuck with SISU and their obsession with the pie money. It reminded me of a...

Oliver Kay had this to say in the Times today on that award: Coventry City have won the Football League’s family excellence award, which recognises the “outstanding experience” provided by clubs for young fans and families this season. This is the same Coventry City whose owners, the...

From the Coventry City Programme 26 April 2014 "I would like to take this opportunity to thank all you truly loyal Sky Blue fans for supporting SISU this last season. I realise it has been difficult for a few of you that live in Coventy to travel to Nottingham to watch your team, but that has...

There was some good coverage of the off-field goings on included in the match reports in the "quality" dailies - a few snippets below. What they all highlight, is the depth of feeling that can be generated in other fans by a dignified and organised demonstration. Guardian Challenging as it is...

Another good article by Oliver Kay in The Times today highlighting the plight and resolution of the supporters and the culpability of the Football League: Fourth-round tie at the Emirates is just another road trip for long-suffering fans, reports Oliver Kay In happier, more innocent times...

Fisher has been spotted visiting a specialist at this Chinese hospital.

Another article about CCFC in the Guardian today. This one deals with happier times despite being about that, rather embarrassing, trip to Gander Green Lane. http://www.theguardian.com/football/blog/2014/jan/03/vault-sutton-united-coventry-city-fa-cup-1989-giantkilling

Not really, but I thought this might be an idea for the "Northampton Few" to give that impression.

Good report in the Guardian on the fans' perspective of their team half way through the season: Coventry City Season in one word Incomprehensible How's it going? How can I explain this? Imagine if you were a massive Bon Jovi fan but you were told one day that the only way you could enjoy Bon...

SISU's propensity for litigation is, perhaps, more understandable in the light of one of their investments. The following is a quote from The Lawyer in January 2008: "What do Coventry FC and a litigation funder have in common? Not much, other than they are both benefiting from the largesse of a...

Another damning indictment of SISU as part of an article that highlights the failing of the game's administrators. Oliver Kay Chief Football Correspondent December 14 2013 Choose football. Choose a club. Choose a vanity purchase. Choose a leveraged buyout. Choose dragging a club into...

Somebody sent me this link that explains a recent European Commission ruling on a local authority plan to lease out a municipal stadium to Chemnitzer FC in Germany. http://legalknowledgeportal.com/2013/11/15/leasing-out-of-local-football-stadium-due-for-renovation-can-constitute-state-aid/...

As I have said before, there is a certain group of posters who seem unable to let go of past events and, though I have most of them on ignore, their posts do tend to be quoted. As they seem to be running out of arguments and tend to recycle the same old clichés, I would like to suggest...

Here is a statement from Ann Lucas about bringing CCFC back to the Ricoh. http://ht.ly/q3G9d If I am keeping count correctly, this is her third invitation to SISU to come and talk to her. Perhaps today's protesters will now direct their energies at the group who are in the real position to...

You might have expected that one of the reasons the FA didn't notice the fans of CCFC being shafted was because they were busy with other matters. But apparently they weren't and according to their own former head of compliance, putting their head in the sands is they way they deal with other...

Bob Ainsworth published the following earlier today: October 1, 2013 · 3:51 pm Football League contradicting its own statements again In March, prior to my adjournment debate on Coventry City Football Club, the Football League emailed me a statement to clarify their position as I had asked...

"Coventry's home games are like a pre-season game in many ways. There is nobody on the terraces who really lifts the players and the atmosphere is quiet." Uwe, believe it or not, that is how many of our "home" fans seem to like it.

The guys at Stjarnan FC responsible for these goal celebrations are willing to train other teams and as we are knocking in a few at the moment..... http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=zC8XanuhOss
