    If we're relegated with games still to play.

    It's a pity Brody's scheme didn't take off. We could all have texted Andy Thorn telling him to heave Ken Deluded into row Z of the stand.

    What was you're worst ever awayday?

    Removing the cooking, washing and ironing privileges probably wasn't all she withheld from him for several weeks.

    What was you're worst ever awayday?

    3 teeth? A decent smack and it'd have been a strike.

    THE VILE VENTURE - I remember it well

    Let's hope whoever it was used his fist. If so I know from personal experience that his hand probably hurt more and for longer than your head. The head is harder than the fist.

    Peterborough away

    I'll make a prediction, next year our away support at grounds with terraces we've either never been to or not for years will be amazing. I think out of adversity we'll stick together and show the world some good old fashioned Coventry attitude and defiance, F*** them all.

    Today's banners

    Well there's no longer any doubt that SISU are taking our club down to the third tier and maybe beyond. I resisted jumping on the bandwagon for as long as I could but it's now obvious that they do not have the interests of Coventry City at heart and are not good for us. The council have made...

    Clear video of trouble during the derby game!

    I was there with my nipper. The bloke who was arrested was going on for a good couple of minutes before this footage started. It was clear he was remonstrating about one copper not displaying his number. Maybe he had a point. I don't know if he was wearing as I couldn't hear him. Two...

    Portsmouth away, hope of a first away win?

    History is against us. The history of the last 40 years which dictates that if a team is struggling badly they really need to play us. I remember us playing away at Portsmouth a few years ago when they were first in crisis in this division and hadn't been able to pay the players, they won.

    Quite perverse

    I hope we don't go down because if we can somehow cling on this season the tide might, just might turn. All the years we held on to first division football then premier league football there was always an argument that if we went down we could come back stronger. Well so much for that theory...

    At the game today....

    This thread is actually pretty encouraging. With one exception everyone on here has condemned racist language and behaviour and agreed that we don't want to be associated with any City fans who still look down on others because they're in any way different. That's the sort of mentality that...

    reflections this dull monday

    Of course we can, it's whether we will. We could have beaten Palace, Blackpool, Reading and West Ham but instead of 12 points we got 2. We could have drawn against Leicester, Birmingham and Burnley but instead of 3 points we got jack. So a not altogether unrealistic 15 points becomes 2...

    Fight at Game

    It's always going to be dodgy going in the wrong end. Any West Ham celebrating in blocks 15 ot 16 would have been in serious trouble given the atmosphere yesterday. I actually think that what happened in the minutes silence might have changed the whole dynamic of the match. Before the game we...

    At the game today....

    Otis speaks for me as well. Every club has it's tossers, chavs and violent scumbags. That doesn't mean we have to either accept it or protect them when they're bang out of order. And somebody shouting gratuitous racial abuse is bang out of order in my book. People are people, good bad or...

    West Ham Fan In Peace

    Now we're talking. 1981 was it. 2-0 down and out at home in the first leg with a crowd of 38,000. Last few minutes Garry Thompson struck and we won 3-2. Just like the previous round, the 5 - 0 against Watford I remember being to the left of the goal in the West End when we scored and ending...

    We haven't come from behind to win in 34 months

    We shouldn't over-react. Don't see too much wrong in the article. If a team takes the lead against us it is likely to lead to a win for them, we don't come from behind very often. If we take the lead that's hardly game over is it ? We do defend deep once we're up and wait for the almost...

    If we lose tomorrow we are relegated...

    If ever a team is there for the taking - we lose to them, historical inevitability.

    West Ham

    There's no mystery or mysticism to it. West Ham will have a big following because it's easy to get to from London, there's a big away end and they expect to win. Let me pose two scenarios. 1. It is two years hence and West Ham are still in this league, have sold all their star players, are...

    Highfield Road or Ricoh?

    "Oh me lads, you should have seen us coming Running down to Highfield Road Just as they were coming Men with axes picks and chains and boys from other places Running down the Highfield Road To see Joe Mercers Aces" To the tune of Blaydon Races. 1972 or 1973 when briefly Joe Mercer was...
