AFC Coventry has a good ring to it.

Nick · Mar 25, 2011

I wonder if the Copsewood have space for us to play on!

Covstu · Mar 25, 2011

Coventry Utd!! we can play at the butts arena!!!

skybluearmy88 · Mar 25, 2011

Much prefer EFC, Stoney Stanton Road!

To be honest, match day would be great as a team like that. Can of beer at the side of the pitch, take the dog down!

banging on the tin roof in the stand behind the goal! cheaper beer and food. and wouldnt cost u a mortgage to be able to go every week.

Covstu · Mar 25, 2011

hey i am warming to this idea!!!

skybluearmy88 · Mar 25, 2011

lets get it up and running lol, we can get to the championship in the time it takes the board at cov to let us in on whats going on lol.

How about Coventry Jaguars. AFC and united have been done before, but going with Jaguar makes us sound a bit different and it also has the benefit of gaining some possible financial backing from Jaguar...

gouldberg · Mar 25, 2011

Loving the idea, especially Americanising the name with another word after (a la Chicago Bulls/Coventry Blaze etc etc). Jaguar's nice. Green kit though?

If you're looking for a right-back/midfielder then give me a bell. My boots are on the shelf ready.

I mentioned this idea on a thread here earlier today but I prefer yours. My franchise was for our current sponsors as Coventry City Link

sternslovchild · Mar 25, 2011

Didnt city try and fail with the Jaguar thing? And with them owned by Tata, would the Coventry Cheerio's be more apt?

We wouldnt fill it

CCFC don't fill the Ricoh, they still play there though!

redsox · Mar 26, 2011

calm down boys , it'll never work. I have a suspicion one or two of you might have an idea of how a club should run and that's not been tried in Coventry for a long time!!

skyblu3sk · Mar 26, 2011

The Jaguar thing fell through under Ford and it was sponsorship of the whole arena. Also JLR were making a loss at that point.

Otis · Mar 26, 2011

As long as I still have my padded seat, tartan rug and flask of Ovaltine I don't care where we play.

AFC Coventry (or whatever name) will not be Coventry City Football Club, in the same way AFC Wimbledon is not the old Wimbledon.

If Coventry City Football Club ceases to exist, I won't follow another soccer team

Legally you're of course quite right Tommy, but I bet that the AFC Wimbledon fans do see their club as the continuation of the old Wimbledon.

Similarly, my local team, Telford United, went bust a few years back but the fans seem to regard AFC Telford as the "same club".

Still, lets hope this remains a theoretical discussion from Cov's point of view.
