    Coventy United 17th May 2014

    It was easy. I was there, and attended Portman Road many times. Not everyone was a part timer. And it was not direct from a free kick either, Barry Powell set it up. The shameful ones are those who are allowing our club to be destroyed. You carry on, though. There will be no team for you...

    Coventy United 17th May 2014

    People who go to Sixfields are not the real CCFC fans, they are the ones killing the club. Just saying..... Oh, and your question is too easy, so I'll leave it to others. But he scored against Ipswich who were not the team we sold him to.

    Alan smith

    If we sign Alan Smith, it is more likely to be the former Arsenal one who commentates for Sky. More in our price range, I reckon. Downside is that he is 51.

    Anyone remember 'City's Cup of Joy'

    I'm sure I have this on VHS too, although I also have no player for it now. Let me know if I can help.

    Does anyone remember where they were 27 years ago today?:thinking about: I seem to remember it wasn't a bad day, looking back.:D

    Ccfc & the world cup

    Chris Birchall was still with Port Vale at the World Cup in 2006. We did have 2 players in that Trinidad squad though - Stern John and Clayton Ince.

    Ccfc & the world cup

    Scotland did not qualify for the 1994 World Cup. Nor did any of the other home nations. The only City players in that tournament were Phil Babb (RoI) and Roy Wegerle and Cobi Jones (USA).

    Jail

    Oh, well. There goes Sisu's Plan A for next season.

    Council and Sky Blues in court tomorrow

    That's right. I sincerely believe that the club will never return to Coventry as long as Sisu own it. And staying at Northampton is unsustainable as there is no support there. So their ownership can only end with the club ceasing to exist. The club can only have a chance of returning to...

    Play Off

    One thing I noticed at all these play off games is the empty seats in the grounds. If we ever reached a play off semi final and were at the Ricoh, I'm sure there would be a sell out, no matter who we were playing. The Crewe game demonstrated that, even though tickets were cheap. It probably...

    Burge signs new deal

    Perhaps it is just the usual 'City fan pessimism' but this seems to me to indicate that they don't expect Murphy to stay. A 3 year contract points to Burge being regarded as first choice keeper sooner rather than later.

    Coventry City given Football League award for providing families with an ‘outstanding

    Maybe they have a point. We don't go to Northampton so we are spared the misery of all those years with season tickets. It could be an award for giving 10000 people their lives back at weekends.

    Labovitch calls for independent ACL valuation

    Labovitch and his odious cronies have said that the club has moved on from the Ricoh and plan to build their own little stadium somewhere or other. So why are they so interested in the affairs of a company they have kicked into touch, I wonder.

    League One next season

    With the squad we are likely to have next season we will not be 'pissing' anything, I'm afraid. Some half-decent free signings should see us survive and finish mid-table. But Pressley's record isn't that great in the transfer market, and players will hardly be queueing round the block to sign...

    Coventry Sphinx

    Have you watched any at that level? I have a team (Boldmere St Michael) in the same league as Sphinx situated about a mile from my house, plus two teams in the league above (Sutton Town & Romulus) even closer. But I haven't had the heart to go and watch since losing my City after 50 years, so...

    A host of clubs are tracking Mark Marshall

    He will no doubt go to the highest bidder. City have served their purpose in getting him match fit and giving him a shop window in which to display his wares. Loyalty is not relevant, such is the way of the world.

    Coventry Sphinx

    The story in the Telegraph doesn't tell the full story at all. The 280 attendance was clearly down to the fact that you could pay what you liked on the day. They rarely get 100 people and the average at their other 2014 games is a mere 74. That is about average for that league where gates...

    I'm a Coventry City player. I signed a new contract this season

    Still here in 2 years? I'm not convinced, I'm afraid. I seriously doubt the club will still be here in 2 years.:(

    Franck Moussa has played his last game for Coventry City

    Spot on. You are telling it like it is. Players are in the game for themselves, trying to get the best contracts they can. It's a short career so who can blame them at this level. I just wish some fans would get their heads round the fact that loyalty is for fans, not players. To them it is...
