    Coventry, City of Culture 2021

    No dots to count but a hearty well done in the award, we may make the short trip to visit the wonders that it creates. Those of us from a real "City of Culture" do admire the gritty aspiration that it is something that can be judged & awarded rather than naturally created. :happy::happy:

    Chesterfield away 2nd September

    PS: MK was still pants according to those who went. They have now moved everyone into the lower tiers to "improve atmosphere"..... not working that well! A weekend in Blackpool beckons..... :finger:

    Chesterfield away 2nd September

    We took 4k last year (not bad for a small provincial club)........ soulless horrible hole. Best thing about it was the pub by the canal, proper pub with some characters. Ticked it off the list, won`t bother again unless it matters. Booked up for Blackburn, Blackpool & Donny....that`ll be 3 more.

    Matchday Experience Survey

    Done it....... even though the phrase "matchday experience" is as offensive to me as fudging "solutions". I pay to (ideally) watch an entertaining & fair game of football, officiated by a ref who isn`t looking for headlines. Thats about all most of us want.....at a sensible price. As soon as...

    Blackpool this weekend

    Having endured thousands of Orient fans celebrating their promotion & our demise into non-league in 2006 I have a spiteful & irrational dislike for them. Whilst I appreciate they just tapped the nail into the coffin (we were shite all season & got what we deserved) its pleasing Karma that they...

    D Day Today

    If its scant consolation you can get out of League 2 playing football on a £1.5 million budget, but you have to have a "Plan B" and the players that can do it because you will come up against more direct football. Its also where the scouting system (sorry if you haven`t got one!) will earn its...

    Brighton / Coventry

    You can but look at the likes of Brighton & Bournemouth and think "If only......". Its the fun thing about the league structure.....anyone can make it........ Fleetwood in the Prem anyone ? I mean....really ??? Anyway, you might not think so now, but riding the rollercoaster of ups & downs is...

    Season ticket prices 17/18 season

    They probably saw the 44k at Wembley and thought...... well if we get 25% of them we are laughing... not the best business plan. Many times in the past I`ve thought I won`t bother as I only get to between 6-10 home games as "life" gets in the way......but what they do play on is its "your...

    Clubs to Vote in May wether Checkatrade Trophy Should Be Scrapped

    Too much money for League 1/2 clubs to say no..... yet its barely two weeks salary of some PL players. Luton must have paid back almost all their winnings in fines for fielding the team they wanted too.... that stupidity needs to go. IIRC only one of the U23s progressed and they were all...

    Match Thread Coventry v Peterboro. Match Thread - Saturday 8th Apr

    Cheers for a helpful result!! We had an entertaining 1-1 under the M6....... nice day out barring bumping into the EDL in Birmingham....... referring to them as Neanderthal would be an insult to our distant ancestors. We also had a ref who looked as though he had taken the booking by...
