Clearly don't live in cov then?

Why can't you diss your home city?

Take it you have never dissed anyone playing for your home team then?

That Freddie Eastwood, well worth the money wasn't he ?

Seeing as how they did so well this season and they are now my "local" team, I guess I would follow Southampton. Note that I said "follow" and not "support"!

IoW have no teams HH?

Joe King · Apr 29, 2012

Newport and Brading! About the best choice to watch. Part-time postmen, dustmen, office wrokers etc, etc, Get my drift?

Mary_Mungo_Midge · Apr 29, 2012

I'd have to switch sports and watch the rugby; most probably the Rugby Lions. It's quite pleasant watching the game with a beer in your hand. It'd be impossible to support another footy team. Incomprehensible

Brighton Sky Blue · Apr 29, 2012

Think we might be seeing them at the Ricoh next season then?

If you get the "County Press" in Brighton (IoW paper, which sometimes is available on mainland), you'll see good reports about Newport. Handy little team and good fan following for a really small club.

Unfortunately here all we have is the Argus-guess IoW's too far west!

ccfcway · Apr 29, 2012

Argos in town.?

valiant15 · Apr 29, 2012

Yes i do live in cov,very proud of it i am to. so your saying every single inch of the place is a dump? What's eastwood got to do with it?

joemercersaces · Apr 29, 2012

Nobody else ever. No need.

Whoever takes up the reins and starts a new football club in Coventry will have the potential support of the 8th biggest City in England plus Warwickshire. It wouldn't be a small team for long it would be a phenomenon and the talk of football. Being from Coventry with our history of getting up after having the holy shite kicked out of us I suspect it would be news around the world.

So it's Coventry Phoenix for me!

But they'll still be City.

Come on

I'm proud to have been born in cov, but it's dreadful, from empty pubs in the 80,s to constant fights wherever you went to in the 90,s, followed by kids now going to brum.

I'd watch grass roots. Beduff

I remember the story about Mo Konjic when he came from war torn Bosnia. He scored on his debut at Anfield for us and rang his mum. She interrupted his excited tale and told him while he's been enjoying himself his uncle had been shot, his sister raped and the house burned to the ground. And I blame you for moving us to Coventry, she said.

Very interesting to note just how many on here haven't said a new CCFC side forming out of the ashes as the club they would follow.

Quite surprised by that to be honest.

Brighton Sky Blue · Apr 29, 2012

We'll only find that out if it actually happened Otis-I still have a fervent belief we'll eventually emerge from the SISU era with a clean slate, and not because we've been put out of existence. Call it sour, but if our club were allowed to be put out of existence whilst others happily buy success and titles with borrowed money, it would kill my interest in the domestic game.

valiant15 · Apr 29, 2012

Sounds like every major city in england ccfcway,there's citys a lot rougher than cov,including the one you've just mentioned.

Tad · Apr 29, 2012

Other then CCFC I don't really pay much attention to football anymore. If they went, I'd probably just not bother with football and just stick with my main sport of choice (ice hockey). Close to doing that now anyway. Great sport hockey

cloughie · Apr 29, 2012

it would kill football for me , but I could only follow a new Coventry city without shitsu

I fear our best hope at the moment is admin yet that will end up with us still being owned by double ,treble no, infinite dealing shitsu

I think all of us would support another coventry team from the ashes in whatever guise they came in. What is pleasing is that no-one would jump at a glory club.
Many of us would have a soft spot for other teams, in my case ilkeston town and i guess mansfield as ive a few mates who support them and ive been a few times for a night game.

AngryAnt · Apr 30, 2012

Pretty much only what came out of CCFC.. I've a soft spot for a number of teams (Sheff Wed, Yeovil [home town.. Cov's my parents thrusting their hatrid on me], Southampton, to name a few) but i could never actually support them..

Infact, i don't think i could even massively follow what came out of CCFC. I'd probably just watch the FA Cup Final and maybe the WC.

Steve.B50 · Apr 30, 2012

Coventry Rugby Club, they are crap too but have own stadium and still exist.

If City were gone there would be AFC Coventry.

I would follow them.

this

inter milan are my 2nd team.

SkyBlueM · Apr 30, 2012

No one, don't particularly follow England these days and have generally become disenchanted with football over the last few years so without the Skyblues to follow will probably switch to watching more egg chasing.

Changeyourface · Apr 30, 2012

If there wasn't a new team representing Coventry then I'd probably catch the odd Walsall or Leicester game as they're the only local-ish teams in the football league that I don't mind.

idris65 · Apr 30, 2012

Coventry.......whoever and whatever league they are in .Its my city and my football club in whatever guise they are.

covlad1986 · Apr 30, 2012

For me if the worse comes to the worse and Coventry went busted and there wasn't a replacement club i would go to Coventry sphinx for the simple fact as it's in Coventry and where i live and was born in.
