    Which begs the question why bother with them? Let them just continue to dwindle into insignificance.

    Appreciate what you're trying to do and the effort you're putting in, but this shouldn't need to be a complex negotiation; the trust just need to publicly condemn Wasps' stance over the indemnity clause, then we can all move forward from there. Simple and straightforward to do if they have the...

    Match Thread Southend United vs. Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 15th Feb

    I'm sure if we ask Southend nicely they will let us announce our team after we know which way we will be kicking.

    Pete, Serious question, why the secrecy? I agree that name calling is not the right thing to do (and have never resorted to it) but if there has been some progress in attitudes or thinking why can't it be shared? To most of us looking on there has been no progress.

    Sorry, but if it's not done publicly it is meaningless.

    But the Trust's position has not noticeably changed has it?

    Absolutely right to leave it in, that's what we signed up to. The Trust have done nothing in the last month to change the situation.

    Spot on, but there's zero chance of CWR wanting to clarify it - it doesn't fit their narrative. They're quite happy to have callers spouting such nonsense without correction or challenge.

    Sorry Baka

    Numerous candidates. I could throw in Yakubu, Darius Henderson, Andre Wright, Dan Agyei, Peter Ramage, Stephen Hunt and Josh Barrett, all in the last 5 years. The stuff of nightmares. There are probably many more who are best forgotten.

    Sorry Baka

    So the 3 worst players in our 137 year history were all in the last 5 years? That's an unlikely occurrence. The reality is that the three you name were way better than some of the dross we've had (even in the last 5 years if that's when history starts). All had their good moments in skyblue.

    Yes, missed it on walk back to car but assumed somebody had made them choke on their Horlicks...

    Irritated by the phone-in after the game; most of the callers claimed to have been supporters since God was a boy (as if that gives them greater relevance) but none of them were going to the games at SA. They might have an "interest" in CCFC, they might be "fans", but they are clearly not...

    Match Thread Coventry City vs. Portsmouth Match Thread - Tuesday 11th Feb

    Their best "flair" player, Curtis, didn't show anything last night, but maybe we just dealt with him well. He was a nightmare down at Fratton Park. It's about doing what you have to do to get out of this league, and Pompey are doing pretty well with their style (as were Wycombe until recently...

    Sorry Baka

    Guy near me on Saturday mouthing off (loudly) that Baka was a piece of shit and the worst player he'd ever seen in a City shirt. And after he'd given us the lead after 2 minutes. Unbelievable.

    Sam McCallum

    Seriously? Do you think Robins wouldn't notice if Sam was taking it easy? Do you think that Robins would find that acceptable? More likely the natural fluctuations in form of a 19 year old in his first full season of league football. His performances recently haven't been poor, he just hasn't...

    Match Thread Coventry City vs. Portsmouth Match Thread - Tuesday 11th Feb

    It's more about football philosophy than budget, Accrington in their promotion season were another example, small budget but played good tidy football. My assumption was that you couldn't have seen the Rochdale game if you thought they played like Pompey - logical rather than lazy. But if you...

    Agreed - O'hare looked out on his feet and was the obvious candidate to come off, whilst Allen was still going strong. But then what do we know? But I would still have brought Pask on to replace him for the last 5 minutes to handle the aerial assault.

    If you watched the Rochdale game at SA (which I assume you didn't) you will know that they attempted to play the ball from the back (on the ground) more than any other team we've seen this season, very similar to us but not as good at it. Lazy stereotype.

    Call it now

    Weaker, stronger - difficult to say. Personally I think it is stronger due to the larger number of decent (but not outstanding) teams in the top half. Any of the top 6 could conceivably be champions, and any of them could conceivably miss out on playoffs. Any team from 11th upwards (Burton) will...

    Mark Robins

    Yes, could be true. Our postman said somebody in town told him the same, and he thinks it was somebody in the pub told the man in town. And it was Jim the gateman's dog that told the man in the pub. Or, as you say, it might just be bollocks.
