Correct me if I'm wrong but that hasn't been there before or has it? I understand what Mowbray means about now that if you want first class players on the pitch you've got to have first class facilities off it. Let's be honest whilst it's not a massive factor, if a player has a choice between us and another League 1 club and someone takes them around the Ricoh/training ground I'm sure they would choose us because they want to be in a first class environment and want to play/train in these facilities.

looks great

Looks good, where abouts is it?

Pitch at Ryton

Gint11 · Jul 1, 2015

Agreed. It's a very strewd move from Mowbray and he is 100% correct. You cannot expect standards from players if standards of the club don't match.

About 3 or 4 miles south east of Coventry.

Little things can make all the difference, as I tell the girls

You and me both!

Under Waggott and Fisher we were told how professional the club was run. Now under Mowbrey I hope we start being professional.

Yeah, before we were professional prostitutes. Now we escort agency girls.

They have fitted new mirrors apparently, all we need now is some new smoke. The sun is shining on us and Coventry City FC....enjoy it...for today at least.

You're wasted on that Samaritans hotline.

I know, the Leicester fans are chucking themselves off the cliff like Lemmings after Pearson's sacking. Perhaps "Go for it Buddy" was ill advised.

I wonder if that was one of the crests which Wasps made us take down from the Ricoh and was just knocking about somewhere? :thinking about: Looks good anyhow!

More pics from the training ground

Nick · Jul 1, 2015

I like the one about playing for the badge on the front..

Also the photos of the fans!

KG7 · Jul 1, 2015

Interesting that Andy Webster is in the video on Sky Blues Player and Reda isn't. Could mean nothing of course!

ajsccfc · Jul 1, 2015

The graffiti stuff's a bit fugly, makes it look like they should be eating crisps and playing table tennis there.

Webster got released, no? Maybe he's just training with us to improve his fitness and find a new club. He can fuck off though if that's the case, don't mind the club helping players who were decent for the club but not Webster who was absolute shite.

What's the point in helping a player if he was crap for us? We don't owe him anything, he owes the fans though for having to pay to watch his attempts at defending.

Its not uncommon these days is it for players to train with former clubs? If he lives locally and he doesn't have an attitude problem or cause disruption then I don't really see it being a problem.

Did he shit in your cereal or something?

skybluetony176 · Jul 1, 2015

I can't believe that the club badge wasn't on the front gates or the front of the building, that's shameful. Well done TM for addressing this embarrassment.

cornoccfc · Jul 1, 2015

Can't believe this needed addressing; fair play TM for looking at the wider picture of the club.

Garbage. He should have developed a silly name spoke in a silly European accent and then you'd be saying he was a big fucker and wanking over him.

ajsccfc · Jul 1, 2015

Webster does speak with a silly accent in fairness.

Should have said East European to be fair

Who was that shit Russian defender we had for about two games in the 90s? I can picture him but the name's gone.

Alex Evtushok and he was Ukranian

That's the fella. Potato, potato.

Bit of a sad tale about him to be fair.
