    Why does the ticket office never pick up?

    Aren't they based at one of those £5-a-day serviced offices on Lockhurst Lane? I suppose it's some old spinster and a work experience girl answering the phone for a couple of dozen other fly-by-night outfits as well.

    How many are complete stay-aways this season?

    I had a season ticket for 46 years, since we were first promoted to Div.1. Never missed a home game in all that time, even after moving away from Coventry. I have not renewed this season and I have no intention of going to Northampton for any games, even to stand on the hill. It would be a...

    Ricoh attendance with the current results & form ?

    I reckon that with results as they have been, we'd be looking at about 12-13000 for this Saturdays' game. (Not Sunday, of course!) Had we been there under new owners, it could have been 16000 or so.

    What did CCC / ACL do wrong?

    There have been many mistakes over the years, some of them through incompetence, some duplicitous, and some (allegedly) downright dishonest. But this one: CCFC run out of money without a brick being laid. Now have no funds to build new ground and don't own old ground. Has always been the...

    Peter Hormantschuk

    I was refereeing Sunday League games in those days, and I sometimes got asked to do schools games on Saturday mornings. I remember refereeing Caludon Castle in the English Schools Trophy against some big-shot school from Birmingham. The Brum outfit were all over Caludon for the whole game, but...

    SP interview about the fans feelings

    Even in the unlikely event of City returning to Coventry in 3 years, Pressley will be long gone by then. If he succeeds he will be off like a shot. And if he fails, he will get the inevitable 'Spanish Archer' that befalls every City manager after a year or so.

    91 League grounds

    I used to go to all City's games, home and away throughout the 70s and early 80s. That included friendlies so went to plenty of lower league grounds. I've just had a quick count-up and I've been to 78 League grounds. Of these, a staggering 34 are no longer used, are teams no longer in the...

    Richardson started debt crisis?

    But the Premier League was where the money was, so that's where we needed to stay. We were relegated with a team that was good enough to finish mid-table, simply because Strachan lost the plot. I am still convinced that, had we sacked Strachan at Christmas, we would have survived. We were...

    Coventry attendance at Sixfields ‘to be smallest in league history’

    The lowest post-war attendance, as far as I can see, was for Rochdale v Cambridge in 1974 for a Div.3 match. It was 588. I doubt we shall see one that low for a league game at Sixfields, given the season ticket holders are always included. But a JPT home tie may well be below that.

    Where is Seppala?

    She isn't that difficult to track down. She has a house in Kensington worth around £10 million. She paid £6.4 million for it in 2006. It has 6 bedrooms and, I believe, 6 bathrooms. Best not put the address here, but it isn't that difficult to find. Her name is actually Joy Victoria...

    Joy Victoria Sepella

    Joy Seppala can't be short of a few bob. She and her husband live in a rather plush house in Kensington, which they bought for £6,400,000 in 2006. The houses there have 6 bedrooms, 6 bathrooms, and are currently selling for around £10,000,000. Anyone who can afford to buy property like that...
