No. The 10 point deduction is a killer. Only sixth place is available - the others are out of reach. Historically teams have needed approximately 75 points to hit sixth; Coventry are on pace for 67 points. The good news is that the sixth placed team, Walsall, are rather weak. They are on pace...

Countless players at countless clubs - big and small, domestic and foreign - have put in transfer requests at the first sign of potential advancement. Nothing new or unique to SISU here.

Possibly the shittiest comment in SBT's history.

In all likelihood yes, when you consider that they have resisted selling off players despite having no fans at home games.

Didn't Les Reid do that?

I agree with all of that. The CT is a weak newspaper.

That quote from Mark Thompson deserves full context: Which brings us to the question of the BBC's politics and the frequent accusations of bias. Thompson says this has been a problem. "In the BBC I joined 30 years ago [as a production trainee, in 1979], there was, in much of current affairs...

Um, I believe you are the one saying that. If you are insinuating that the Coventry Telegraph is a weak newspaper, then you will get no disagreement from me. All I am saying is that it is silly to expect the CT to do serious investigative journalism when many broadsheets and TV news networks...

Oh, I got the reference - was just backing it up with more examples of the Beeb's lefty cronyism!

The internet is merely one part of investigative journalism. If it were all that was needed, then the conspiracy theorists on this forum would have dug up all that was needed to know by now. As things stand, there still isn't a photo of Joy Seppala's face.

and Old Etonian and Cameron contemporary James Landale as his deputy. Or former Murdoch editor/climate change denier/Spectator chairman Andrew Neil, heading up much of the BBC's political coverage. All having The Internationale as their ringtones, I'm sure.

That is not evidence. That's the opinion of four individuals, some of whom may be pandering to the right and/or confusing bias with personal opinion. Their opinion is no more or less valid than other senior BBC management and talent who say there is no bias. It doesn't matter what a BBC...

I imagine CWR and the CT don't have the budgets to do that kind of investigative journalism. But in any case, what kind of facts are you after?

Memo to Fox News: must try harder. Could you go to the BBC website, pick through any of their political reporters' stories or blogs, and point out an example of bias, please?

Yep. This really shouldn't be a stick with which to beat SISU.

LOHAG isn't exactly secular, but certainly rousing stuff. The current anthem is weak as can be.

Is this being broadcast on any radio stations?

Fair 'enuff!

I'm all for taking a jibe and a good insult, but it comes across as more ad hom than lighthearted. Maaaaybe in a thread about managers, but ballboys? Weird.

Really, you are the only one who harps on about Black. I selected him as my first choice in a poll (along with plenty of other voters), am fine with somebody else getting the job. And that's about it. You are the one who keeps using that as a random ad hom and was keen to know my reasons for...
