    Mississippi Burning

    People on both sides have been guilty of name-calling. Can't defend either use of terms used at times. Whats is worse IMO is comparing a democratic organisation (SBT) to one that abuses human rights, have been linked to mass murders and attempt to suppress rights for females (the Taliban)...

    Suing. Appleton or the football league

    To pursue the administrator, I imagine you would need to be either a shareholder or a creditor. In either case, the administrators argument would be that he got the best deal for the creditors under the circumstances. Difficult circumstances. You don't have any contract with the FL, so it...

    pete from Cheylesmore

    He has been leaving comments on my blog for a while. I'm quite happy to put up stuff that show that people disagree with me, but he's overstepped the mark lately. He referred to the Telegraph as putting out left wing propaganda, other fans on the hill as 'muppets', 'fools', 'mindless' and...

    Hadn't thought of it being someone writing under a pseudonym. He has posted there regularly. Could be someone with a vendetta against Pete Chambers the music writer... One good thing is that its made me find out how to stop comments loading automatically...

    If you were inside the ground looking out, can understand why you would think everyone left at half time. Most people moved to the other corner to get a better view of the goal the city were attacking. Out of view from the 'main' stand. That would be city fans wanting a better view of the...

    Pete Chambers has previously called any investigation into the City as driven by 'left wing' propaganda - is it just lefties that would expect a football team to play in its home city? Not sure why He's even thinks the Telegraph is driven by left wingers - quite special. And now the SBT is...

    The Aspire Group - can anybody help?

    Rob I take it you are vaguely aware of the clubs situation and us leaving the Ricoh? The owners ACL have lost their anchor tenant and so are obviously looking at ways to increase revenues. So something could be happening in regards to other sports being attracted. Maybe check with ACL?

    Joke decision

    I couldn't agree more. The bigger picture here is that we need other fans to realise what the law and football league regulations have allowed to happen to the club. We may have benefited from only receiving a ten point deduction, which could well be down to the board using their discretion...

    What did CCC / ACL do wrong?

    ACL offered £120,000 for Div 1, £100,000 for Div 2 and £400,000 for a return to the Championship if my memory serves me right.

    'Jimmy's Hill' protests having the desired effect!

    A failing business that made over £1m profit last year? Take out the rent and associated costs of putting on matches and its breaking even. It will need to diversify if the club never returns, but cashflow wise it's secure for the time being. As income is reduced I imagine overheads will be...

    record low

    Tim said 6 to 7,000 if we were doing well. We have form that would have us just outside the play-offs. I consider that to fit the criteria of 'doing well'. We have a home support of 1,500. Well done Tim. Only 5,500 out and around 20% of your prediction. And this from a banker that...

    Coventry V Sheffield United

    Empty seats can't be glossed over. TV needs supporters otherwise it makes their brand look bad. Stick to NOPM and make noise from outside the ground. Far more effective.

    Pictures from the Hill today.

    I would imagine that people go for a variety of reasons. Why not join them one week and ask? Everyone was very friendly. I went to show my support, back the NOPM campaign and like to think it annoys the shite out of the board that we are there making a noise. And getting a mention on Sky...

    Sickfields...was TF right?

    I agree it's early, but he's going to really struggle to hit 7,000 judging by the first two gates. I worked out the income based on 3,000 in one of my earlier blog post and the amount left to spend on players wages was around £1.3million under FFP. You are looking at £850,000 at the minute if...

    Did I support ACL & CCC for the right or wrong reasons?

    When they say there is no challenge, that means that they want the full investigation that liquidation brings to go ahead? They can challenge the findings of liquidation later in the process if needed. No?

    Free tickets for Sixfields

    Just found this on twitter. Funny the things you find sometimes. Comp tickets sent out by the club. Is that why attendances are growing?

    Sickfields...was TF right?

    The team is playing fairly attractive football, lots of goals and full of Coventry kids with form that would put us just outside the play-offs (if it wasn't for the points deductions). That should realise close to the 7,000 attendance that Fisher predicted. Instead, 1,500 are going. If he is...
