Aren't City usually on the back page?

I am sure the City are on the back page and then that is a pullout inside, so the City do have priority.

All the more ironic - that the front page of the Coventry rag’s sports pullout features a London rugby team and a Solihull ice hockey team!

Couldn’t make it up. Absolute disgrace to the good people of the City of Coventry.

It's not even that surprising. I have noticed some 2 bit random reporters will jump on the ccfc bandwagon when we win.

Start talking about ccfc as we and us, fuck off.

The local press are the uncritical friend of the council who are in turn are bedfellows of Wasps. Sad for fans who can see past the headlines and can deduce what's been going on.

Yep. The CT have been a bit underhand before but nothing to get outraged about here

So was Clive from CWR who said he'd seen the last 20 minutes of the game v Bristol City - later amended after being told it was actually Charlton - "well they both play in red and white"

I’m sorry mate, but if you can’t see an obvious agenda here, then you are probably a council pro wasp chufter too!

Time for a boycott.

They living on borrowed time anyway.

A little pressure and they might start supporting the tight team...

Point is Otis.

We should be on the back page AND the front page of the pull out.

It’s the COVENTRY telegraph.

I've been in Canada for 40 years and people still ask me why I read the paper backwards. Old habits die hard

Why to posters on this thread seem so shocked? Granted the CT are incredibly one sided but when there's hardly been much love lost between themselves and CCFC throughout the years, their attitude towards the club is obviously going to influence their content - and it I think it's apparent that it has done for a while now.

Obviously it's far from ideal but it's also not all that surprising, especially when the club and the CT have had a strained relationship for years. Prime example I remember speaking to Boddy at the end of season awards a couple of years ago and he admitted Robins detested Andy Turner went through stages of refusing to speak to him at the time. Granted I think he's changed his position since but that still doesn't exactly bode well.

Also it may be a factor, it may not, but Wasps regularly sponsor their business awards, so again, IMO it's not all that surprising where their loyalties lie and probably why Wasps receive full page spreads for stringing a couple of wins together.
