    Don Mackay

    A funny don mackay story - A coventry based school caretaker was voted as the caretaker of the year at some point in 1985, he got to go on the BBS Saturday morning kids show with some of the pupils and he set a question for the quiz where he mixed up Don with Dave McKay the former Spurs hardman...

    The prospect of playing to 4,000 fans at St Andrews, should help push a few deals over the line

    Hang your heads in shame

    Sisu took over in 2007 - nearly 12 years ago it is a long time for a hedge fund to hold onto an investment, I know to many on here there are merely victims subject to persecution from all sides but whilst they continue to own us it will be disappointment for us fans. I hate WASPs, Higgs and CCC...

    If we move

    I am presuming that if we move we will be playing to sparse crowds leading to a reduced budget and consequently good players leaving and more difficult to attract quality players due to these factors. robbins may stay but it becomes easier to tempt him away if there is no forecast return to...

    If we move

    Yes brighton have come out the other in a better place, hopefully we will also but the big difference are our circumstances - mistrusted owners, WASPS and CCC - CCC will be there in 13 years but if both of the other 2 are still there we will be in non-league

    If we move

    2 seasons at gillingham (70 miles from Brighton)followed by 11 seasons at the Withdean before moving to the magnificent Amex, I'm all for having a medium term strategy but in 13 seasons time I hopefully will be 65 but a long to wait for the Woodlands Arena, in those 13 seasons they always had...

    If we move

    I personally hope that it is one of the non-league stadiums close to Cov, Nuneaton , Rugby or Solihull Moors (has 5,200 capacity) - at least the atmosphere would be good St andrews with 4,000 fans would be awful and Burton is too far and would require fans all driving. Leicester Tigers or...

    Duggins

    Seems like history repeating itself, especially with SISU talking about a new ground - pure fantasy. I think Cov leaving the Ricoh is another ploy to heap more financial pressure onto WASPs especially as they could be missing out on European rugby. Our rent is small, but they will also loose a...

    Conor Chaplin - Signing Confirmed (Finally!)

    Pompey fan in the office says he has a great football brain but needs to play off a big striker as only 5ft 7in,

    Stokes - Confirmed to Bury

    I recognize that most city fans rated stokes a lot higher than I did, I think to play full back you need some pace, saw stokes beaten by pacey wingers too easily, however recognize the benefits he gave us defending dead balls, prepared to trust Robbins judgement

    The future

    Jackdg - love the picture of Mr Julian Darby, we may reminisce about our days in the top flight but we had some very poor players in that era also Julian being one of them but he did score a few goals

    Neymar overrated

    Pele did play well in "escape to victory" but never played in the European leagues and was always part of a strong Brazilian team, New York Cosmos was not proper football intensity and more like the Harlem Globetrotters

    Under the Radar

    Both of the recent relegations 2011/12 & 2016/17 , the summer recruitment were poorly planned executed. 2011/12 Andy Thorn brought in 2 goalies and Cody whilst loads of players left. Mowbray failed badly, one of his signings being Jordan Turnbull who helped relegate Northampton and is no...
