I really dont see the problem. We are now a piss poor 3rd division club struggling to stay in this league, we dont own the stadium we play in and are in danger of going out of existence. The once proud club that us as supporters deserve has all but fallen away to a shambles bereft of any investment on or off the field.
Its sad but its hardly news worthy to the majority of Coventry folk what happens to us or who we are playing every week. (Just look at the falling attendances).
I just pray our fortunes change for the better and we can get back to the days where the first thing you did in the morning was look at the sports pages!
Absolutely, why should we care. So why print the advert in our space.Yeah, why should people in a city care more about a team that's based there rather than one parachuted in by a council desperate to cut its losses.

perhaps because of several things. We have heard nothing from SISU lately. CCFC are intent on leaving the city. CCFC are dismal at the moment and the steady decline doesn't inspire people. The "other place" are breaking Rugby attendance records, communicating with people, making special offers and giving out free tickets to Coventry schools, holding an open day and just generally going about things the right way. I think people would care more about a team based in the city, if the management of the company owning the team would show some care for the city whose name they carry on their teams shirts.
but thems the facts.
Where do you get this drivel from?
The Telegraph is printed on the evening of the day before it is dated so it's a similar scenario.I don't buy the Telegraph (not just because I live miles away, but I never bothered when I was in Cov) so it doesn't really bother me what they print. At least you get a daily local paper in Cov. We just get a once-weekly local here. By the time it goes to print and is sold on Fridays, the news is usually a week out of date! .......... so I don't buy that rag either!

The back page of the Telegraph has traditionally been the place where all us Sky Blues fans first look for the latest news snippets of the club. Today's (Friday 12th Dec) back page has a quarter page advert for the "other" team that "are coming". I didn't want to mention the W word because I don't want this thread to be moved to the sub forum as I think it's more relevant here and clearly demonstrates the way we have been what appears to be, moved a little bit more than sideways. Shame on the Telegraph for giving them this press space. Is nothing sacred.
