    Recruiting Academy Scouts

    From memory, the use of the word "recruited" is a bit over-blown. I think as a scout you get your petrol money and that's it and you don't join as a club employee as such. Many scouts are doing the job principally to "keep their hand in" and use the match visits to develop/maintain their own...

    SBITC at half time on Saturday

    That's actually a preview of next season's first team squad once the impact of next summer's budget cuts are felt, once SISU lose the JR and have forked out for everyone's legal costs.

    Program Notes - Nice Touch

    The FA and FL are spineless and will go along with it.....no doubt ISIS will at some point take over the ground despite TF's threats that SISU would "batter them in court"

    Program Notes - Nice Touch

    I'm not objecting to Tim Fisher going to Iraq, far from it. It's the him 'coming back from Iraq' bit that's the problem.... There again, he's probably safer in Iraq than he is on the streets of Coventry (cue jokes of "mind you, who isn't?")

    Dhillons Brewery

    Kev Monks was there yesterday I believe, described it on Facebook as a "pretty decent pre-match venue"

    Program Notes - Nice Touch

    You can see why the Iraqi authorities have made the at-first-glace strange decision to bring TF on board.....based on his record at CCFC, the attendance at the refugee camp will be slashed by more than half in a couple of years. Maybe he's already promising them a brand new refugee camp "in the...

    Vincenti / Beavon injuries

    That's a fair point. Maybe we should re-name this thread....EDIT - done. Gould jumped to conclusions based on watching what had happened but for all we know he might be OK. Sounds like he did OK when he came back on the pitch before getting subbed off.

    Is it any wonder.....

    Because we've only got Adams's word for it. Not saying the bloke's lying but there's no reason we should treat it as gospel.

    Is it any wonder.....

    The rent was a reasonable commercial rate given that the council had to recover their £31m investment over the 50 year timeframe of the lease. No commercial lender would have touched it, and I'm still not sure how they wangled it to get around the state aid rules. Don't forget the the CCFC...

    Is it any wonder.....

    I can believe that too. Still, we have maintained (just!) at a higher level than many teams who have won more games in lower leagues. What's better, being at the lower end of the 1st Div for 30 odd years and not winning many games, or clocking up wins in a promotion season from the Blue Square...

    First Ever Cov Match You Saw ?

    Pure chance! Very random in that the company is in London and when I joined we only had a staff of 25. Not like the other 2 knew each other beforehand......

    Is it any wonder.....

    If that's true (a big IF), then that's fucking outrageous. Never let it be said that everything was rosy in the garden before SISU arrived. They inherited a total mess; their crime wasn't creating that mess, it was failing to improve things and making them far worse.

    Mark Sampson

    Which makes you wonder why they sacked him. As usual they will make decisions based on avoiding bad headlines.

    Mark Sampson

    That's what i mean though... his indescretion should have been met with a punishment short of a full sacking.
