Do they still think they are big time?

When you say up for sale I assume you mean looking for someone to take over running the club rather than expecting someone to actually pay money for it?

Do they even need an owner? Can’t they just form a committee and run it themselves, clubs at that level must be self sustaining.

Not the amount they are paying players. Their playing budget is base £3k a week before bonuses.

Felt like they only existed in the first place to try and cynically capitalise on all the NOPM stuff that was going on. In which case, oh how the turntables

I haven’t seen him since the 90’s so can’t comment on that.

That reminds me - have the likes of PSB group and James Alexander put out comments to save Coventry United? Or that councillor who Grendel had a spat with - Chris West?

Ironically the men’s side have played the odd home game in Northamptonshire and the women did too when they were #OneClub. There won’t be many that shed a tear if they go under and rightly so too.

He has gone totally off the grid - I guess once the club got to the championship the likes of him and Johnson had nowhere to go

More players are jumping from the sinking ship. They’ve got around half a dozen left. They’re playing in Beduff on Saturday if they can scrape a team together. Means yet another home game outside of Coventry despite City doing similar is why they were set up in the first place.

Think you must be right, the Greenbacks have not got a game tomorrow so the pitch would be available.
