    Trivia

    I remember David Speedie at home to Middlesboro' - a hat-trick of headers I think - Bernie Slaven scored a hat-trick for them too I think - and we lost 4-3!

    For all the SISU/Fisher/Waggott apologists on here.....

    Neither - he was always highly-rated here, and sold for a pittance. Funny how there's £millions available when it comes to getting SISU's greedy mitts on the Ricoh, yet as soon as bids come in for our better youngsters (Bigirimana, Thomas) it's a different story. A Sky Blue Elephant Never...

    Video of penalties tonight

    Instead of 'Singers Corner' perhaps it should be renamed 'Simpletons Corner'.

    Coventry avoid squad crisis....

    The threat to Baker would have been verbal - i.e. 'hearsay' evidence which would not stand up in court/in a tribunal. If true (and it very well could be) then general squad morale must be very low.

    Playing Devil's Advocate

    Why did SISU take us over? To make money for their investors. Like most hedge funds they bought cheap, and looked to turn us around quickly by promotion (and also the possibility of buying part/all of the Ricoh). They had a business plan which was to build up a young progressive squad by...

    Thoughts?

    It was a typically insipid pre-season kickabout from a city team playing an uninspiring 4-4-2. The only plusses for me were Brown and Edjenguele who both looked solid and comfortable on the ball, and the endeavour of Hussey - however it's a sad indictment when a left back is your most creative...

    RIP Ernie Machin

    Signed by Jimmy Hill and went on to play over ten seasons for Coventry. A no nonsense central midfielder, he scored 11 goals in 34 appearances for the promotion winning team of 66-67. Condolences to family and friends. R.I.P. Ernie.

    The Olympics thread

    Don't really like the Olympics much. Boring 'sports' that hold no interest for me: Running fast. Running fast over sticks. Running long distances. Jumping over the stick. Jumping as far as you can (with optional 'skipping and hopping'). Throwing the spear/big marble/plate as far as...

    I was rocking in the balcony with you at the Deep Purple concert too - same set as the Made In Japan album as I remember.:D The Lanch had some great bands too: Can, Colosseum II (featuring Gary Moore and Don Airey), Osibisa, Greenslade, Man, Refugee (with Patrick Moraz), Curved Air...
