    Well others are talking about Hitler, who armed Iraq and gay rights, I thought that I would deliver a post MLK style - "I have a dream" I have a dream that one day right there in Coventry Grendel will be able to join hands with ItaliaHorse as brothers.

    So , what are our owners going to do now ...............

    As a mid-80s regular always saw Lestor as our main rivals, I'm annoyed they won it takes some of the gloss off our 1987 achievement. I'll get over it who wants the champions league when there is Jonstone Paints trophy

    29 years ago, we won the cup and they were relegated. 8 years ago they were relegated to the third division and we stayed up but even better we had SISU onboard !!!

    Blackburn won the PL, their local rivals Burnely were relegated to the third league. Yesterday Burnley got promoted whilst Blackburn languish in the championship. There is hope but 21 years might not be soon enough for all the court cases to finsih

    I'm a bit the worSE FOR WEAR

    Whilst recognising its a great achievement and a breath of fresh air for football, remember 2 things 1 - Hitler was often seen as a "great" leader 2 - There still the to$$ers from the other end of the M69

    Is promotion still on for next season

    Having watched our game on sky v P'Boro followed by Burton v Millwall, we were by far the best attacking team in terms of quality football and chances created but IMO we looked physically smaller and weak defensively. I think TM may need to change the balance of the side to address this. There...

    Tony Mowbray encouraged by quality of free agents keen to join Coventry City

    I think TM will be a signifigant factor in attracting some better quality players. Loan players need to be restricted, we've had 4 seasons of loan players and although some have been exceptional it really unbalances the squad with a revolving door policy.

    Jimmy Hills ashes

    Its an honour for the club, the City of Coventry and the Ricoh - not sure how well his ashes will sit when they change the sky blue seats to yellow and black.

    Ticketmaster

    Now for stage 2 - a proper ticket office for the fans who aren't IT savvy etc.... The Butts or that office in an industrial estate in Foleshill are a farce. Most clubs have a ticket office at their ground or at the club shop. I think they have to cut a deal with WASPS and utilise the Ricoh...

    Who the club or the fans ? If you run a club the way SISU has run CCFC then you reap what you sew. As for the fans we definitely deserve better

    ST renewal marketing.

    Yes with that foundation we might get a higher league position than Scunthorpe. Next season will be our 5th season in the third tier forgive me if I don't get too excited that we will be able to compete with Walsall.

    ST renewal marketing.

    I agree that there are too many conspairacy theories around and they are clearly not ripping the club off even though I would challenge some of their reported losses but whilst we hover around in league 1 we will become a club of that stature, from the club shop to the ticket office it has...

    Just look at the players that SISU have brought in since relegation withthe exception of a few players (clarke, McGoldrick) its been very poor, lack of real planning they set the budget and the policy appoint the managers and have failed miserably but thou shalt not criticise on here because...

    Why did Waggot leave City ?

    Player recruitment since relegation has been unstructured, short-term bordering on chaotic. Not sure when he first joined but won't get any credit from me. He may be just doing as SISU have allowed him to do but the numbers of players on short term deals, loans, loans that didn't want to play...
