    23rd as it stands. Fortunately Yeovil can't catch us today!

    If you had to make a decision right now...

    This is the real tragedy of it all. Fisher, Seppala & Co never, ever understood the fanbase, which is of course their company's client base. They had no idea how the football fan thinks and how alienating them is virtually irreversible. The fanbase was all but destroyed by the Northampton...

    If you had to make a decision right now...

    My wife and I have already decided that we shall not be renewing next season. It's actually getting to be a real chore going to the games we have already paid for this season. Prior to Northampton I had a season ticket for 46 consecutive seasons, wife for 23. Will we go at all next season...

    Coventry City press conference: Many managers would walk away from this challenge

    Shop at Tesco's. Their sausages contain plenty of brains!

    Players make pancakes at the CCFC shop today.....

    I suppose the pancakes were about as flat as our season has become. I'll get me coat......

    Are we Staying Up?

    Like many others I believe that Pressley has lost the plot (if he ever had it) and under him we will be relegated. A new face for the run-in might just get enough out of these players to keep us up. Teams in relegation battles need to be prepared for a battle in every game and I just don't...

    Man City v Barcelona on General Sale

    Manchester City were relegated from the Premier League at the same time as us, and they hit the third tier well before us too. The difference in the direction taken by the two clubs since then is alarming. It is well illustrated by the fact that the night before they play at the Camp Nou in...

    Affinity....

    It is true that fans gain an affinity with players over time. But players in the modern game tend to have shorter spells with clubs than years ago when many stayed with one club throughout a career. The lower down the divisions you go, the shorter the stays, many have just one year contracts...

    Fleck finch and start of second half

    I'm coming to the conclusion that we shall never know for sure how good some of our players are because of how poorly we appear to be coached and how shambolic our tactics are week in, week out. Rochdale are not a bad team going forward but that game could have been won today. Instead we...

    Coventry City defender Reda Johnson determined to be ever-present

    Johnson is just another in the club's long and sorry history of signing crocks and old knackers. They are all a waste of time and wages. To have a half-decent player crying off all the time is a constant disruption to the team and manager, they are not worth the bother. What did he do today...

    Back in court - July 7

    Perhaps, for old time's sake, we may be drawn against Trakia Plovdiv's legal team in the first round at the European Court. Wouldn't fancy taking on Bayern's lawyers in the second round though.

    Back in court - July 7

    July is fine with me. By then my season ticket will have expired and I will be in a position where I shall not be contributing another brass farthing to this ridiculous farce. I suspect many others will have abandoned the club for good by then too. Seppala, Fisher & the remaining cast of...

    Lowest ever season tally for a City top scorer

    The lowest I can find since we joined the league is W Morgan who scored 7 in 1920-21. Nobody else got more than 4. Needless to say, we were rubbish then too.

    Interesting chat with City Insider yesterday

    Quite so. I'm not sure what there is left. Match up the assets and liabilities and the club is probably worth nothing now. Assets: Balls, bibs, cones, a kettle and 4 mugs. Liabilities: Players' contracts, a 4-year manager's contract, plus a pile of debts.

    New stadium no further forward

    The planning process will certainly be painful. Wherever they plan to build a new stadium, there will be all sorts of objections from residents and locals, relating to parking, environmental issues and anything else you can think of. It is likely that such a major project could result in a...

    Interesting chat with City Insider yesterday

    The worrying thing is what they will leave when they go. By the time this lot finally bale out there will only be the wreckage of a once great club.

    SKY BLUE to become HORNETS

    Maybe we could become the Hoverflies. They are the ones that look like wasps but have no sting. Very appropriate!
