    Our slowest ever player

    I saw De Zeeuw and Kevin McDonald. Maybe before your time but McDonald was much slower!!

    He had already been booked so would have been sent off even with a 2nd booking!

    Match Thread Southampton - Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 20th Dec

    We won 4-3! Barnsley themselves then went on an amazing run and got promoted. Although as has been pointed out we had already started to slip, the January transfer window cemented it. Bringing in 'old heads' in the shape of Ramage, Henderson and Hunt was counter productive, and Maddison wasn't...

    Leicester At It Yet Again!

    I presume you're on the wind up, but they wouldn't be suffering like we did. They will not have to play outside Leicester or rent from Leicester Tigers, and they will remain in the Championship, with one of the highest paid squad of players in the League. They might not be winning the PL or...

    Pretty sure a couple of Sakamoto's goals this season have been from outside the box!

    Who makes it in the Prem?

    I also remember Donal Murphy doing the 'hard as nails' Kenny Burns, and John Aloisi doing likewise to a gobby Danny Mills.

    Who makes it in the Prem?

    Steve Williams was the Southampton player I think.

    Our fastest ever player....

    I don't remember Willis being particularly error prone. I always thought he was solid and reliable, particularly at a time when many around him weren't.

    Our fastest ever player....

    Cain was very fast and probably quicker than Williams. He certainly was amongst the top rank of junior sprinters in the country until he was required to stop to focus on football. Another contemporary of his who never made it with us was a lad called Rob Ogleby who was also a top junior sprinter...

    Our fastest ever player....

    Jose Perdomo was very slow. Darren Currie was probably the slowest winger I've ever seen.

    Match Thread Preston North End FC - Coventry City Match Thread - Tuesday 9th Dec

    Thomas is much better than Hughes in the air! You are slating our defence for leaking goals but ignore the many more goals the Hull defence have been conceding which he has been party to. I appreciate highlights are not necessarily definitive and can be a bit misleading, but in the highlights...

    Since when has 180k a year been peanuts? Not sure where you buy your peanuts!

    I didn't know they earned that much! Just 180k a year you say :eek: I personally don't see how paying them more money somehow equates to them making better decisions, or helps the grass roots refs to get less abuse.

    CCFC Women

    Although women's football does have a higher profile than ever before, I'd be surprised if it is self-funding, so personally I'd rather leave it for the moment, and have all the focus on getting us to the PL and then review it. It's a shame for young girls playing football in the city now that...

    Fa cup 3rd round draw 6.30pm today TNT sports and youtube

    We were gonna piss League 1 regardless. I was more confident of that than I am for this season, even with our big points advantage. Interesting how many are now pissed off with the draw, who beforehand were declaring how little they cared for the cup this season 🤣

    Fa cup 3rd round draw 6.30pm today TNT sports and youtube

    Yet we got to the semi final under him, and also gave it a good go in the seasons we got promoted from League 1 and League 2.

    That shit show away end at Ipswich needs sorting

    The Ipswich situation sounded awful and completely badly managed, but some of our fans can be righteous dicks about sitting with their mates. I had it at Millwall this season where I had bought seats together with my wife, daughter and son in law, but when we got to our seats there was someone...

    How’s the ref explain that!

    Indeed, not sure why I had it in my head the Preston game was on Wednesday :rolleyes:

    How’s the ref explain that!

    I thought Eccles booking was harsh, so by definition the same applies to Hirst, but once the ref had set the bar as he did he should have sent Hirst off. Instead he bottled it, and the excuse being perpetuated that Hirst didn't hear the whistle is nonsense. Until that point I thought we were on...
