    If city were gone.

    Nobody else ever. No need. Whoever takes up the reins and starts a new football club in Coventry will have the potential support of the 8th biggest City in England plus Warwickshire. It wouldn't be a small team for long it would be a phenomenon and the talk of football. Being from Coventry...

    Coventry and Bristol in new cheating row

    Coventry City and Bristol City today stand accused of conspiring to ensure that West Ham United missed out on automatic promotion to the Premier League. Allegations have emerged that Bristol held West Ham to a draw and Coventry deliberately lost 4 - 0 to Southampton in chilling echoes of...

    Just got back

    Thanks Sebastian. Went through a period wishing ill on you purely because Strachan was managing you but today has really cemented a warm feeling between Cov and Saints that will last .

    Baker Facebook post

    There seems to be an automatic reaction from some on here to slag off everyone that moves. The point of the post was that Baker was saying on his Facebook page that the Cov fans were awesome and pleading for SISU to sort it out. Can't we just acknowledge the sentiment without having a go at...

    You're fans today

    Thanks. It seems we are gathering friends around football, genuine people who can sympathise with our plight (except Sunderland mongs who can't forget a perceived slight from 35 years ago). It was your day today and your fans made a fantastic occasion and atmosphere. I agree that the BBC...

    Why are SISU staying?

    They didn't take over through love of the club but for pure business reasons, ie to make some money. They have ballsed that one up big time. As Ray Ransom commented the only way they would make money was by either getting us back into the prem, getting half of the Ricoh or by selling players...

    Match Thread vs Southampton

    Today was just the chickens coming home to roost. Think of any sport. Take cricket or rugby. England have no doubt got lots of talented youngsters but what would happen if they all had to play against France or India (unless they played France at cricket and India at rugby of course)...

    Match Thread vs Southampton

    How many goals have we conceded from corners this year? How many have we scored from corners this year?

    There's hope.....!

    Thanks for the apology, just a bit concerned that a couple of girls were being picked on, If you know them and I don't that fair enough.

    Joe Murphy

    A lot of people forget that these footballers are just human beings, they're not heroes and they're not robots either. They aren't like us, they don't passionately support Coventry City (most of them). They happen to be professional footballers rather than plasterers or mechanics or whatever...

    There's hope.....!

    Leave the poor girl alone, bit of cyber bullying going on here. Not pleasant.

    We need to get real !

    I don't care where we end up (well I do but I hope you get what I mean). I'll still support City or whatever we're called in whatever league we bottom out in. It may be that a new club has to be formed with a slightly different name and strip. But there'll still be a team from Coventry and...

    Smoke and mirror tactics from our "board"...and will any of them be at Southampton?

    All season every time a SISU Out chant has been started I've kept quiet, thinking to myself, "what's the alternative if they do piss off?". All season. Then yesterday the cry went up "Stand Up if you hate SISU". I thought about it. I thought about our relegation, about the lost players...

    Richard Keys tweet....!

    There's a lot of (understandable) wishful thinking on here but few posters if any have any hard and fast evidence regarding SISU's intentions good or bad. But why would it be so hard to believe that SISU might liquidate us? 1. Where is the evidence that they will continue to fund the club...

    Sunderland

    Thanks Sunderland for giving me a good laugh. I'm 49 and have a 10 year old. If he went on Facebook and was as pathetic as you lot I'd be disappointed in him. For Christ's sake grow up. 35years ago a football match was delayed because of crowd congestion, yours kicked off on time. If you'd...

    Most entertaining bit of the game.

    He had a point though!

    Chanting and Trouble

    The stewards were very lucky, it came really close to a major kick off, something thats been simmering all year since one of them hurled a SISU out banner to the floor in the first match and after the aggro with the police against Derby. A couple of lads resisted being ejected and a few more...

    Flexiones en barra

    Enjoy the 1977 Pudrete. 1977 was a very good year. Not many people remember this but that year we came perilously close to relegation from the old first division and it all came down to the last match. One from us, Bristol City and Sunderland would go down. We played at home against Bristol...

    Joe Murphy says we need a monor miracle to stay up

    He was probably asked if it would be a minor miracle if we stay up considering where we were and agreed. That's the way journalists get their headlines.
