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?

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

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

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!

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 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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
