    The bitterness...

    They do have a large catchment if you include Bournemouth, Poole, Christchurch and surrounding areas. However, lots of retirees who support other clubs. If you compare square acreage, I would imagine we would be much larger. They don't have much competition like we do.

    25/26 January Transfer Window

    Definite happenings according to posters on here. What happened to the Championship winger we were signing? Manneh was almost a done deal. Since his league finished a while ago, if it is plain sailing, as claimed, he should be here shortly. Fingers crossed.

    25/26 January Transfer Window

    When BTA was first injured, Lampard said he would be out at least six weeks. Six is the best case scenario. Reading between the lines, I get the feeling (without any information to confirm it), end of January. Lampard usually says when a player is back on the grass, and you spot them on the...

    Gus Hamer

    I don't know why people keep banging on about Gus returning. We sold him with Vic to build a great team. We cannot afford to buy him back or pay his wages. Or O'Hare either. Both are on money that would break our wage structure. We may be top of the league and selling out the CBS, but the...

    The bitterness...

    Think living for now is more important. OK, I get angry at supporters dissing us on social media now. Wrexham and Ipswich beating us when we had weakened teams crowing about how awesome they are. See incoming if we happened to lose at Birmingham. Why be upset with Brentford, Crystal Palace or...

    Scores on the doors vs Swansea

    When JDS plays, his use of the ball and retention of possession is exceptional. Bidwell is always going to fall short of those standards, and that is why JDS is an automatic first choice. Thought Bidders was fine today, even though I kept thinking JDS would have done better in the same...

    Thought AFCON was going to screw them?

    Recruitment has been shocking

    Oh dear, best not to look back on some observations that looked obvious at the time.

    1966/67 after 23 games promotion season

    Went to most of the matches that season. Gave Carlisle away a miss. Jimmy Hill brainwashed us into thinking we were invincible, and we were for the last 25 games.

    Match Thread Coventry City - Swansea City Match Thread - Friday 26th Dec

    Nah, Lamps and the boys would have turned him into a world beater. Surprised how slight he is. As our feeder club, if he gets good we will take him later.

    Saddos. Their club sold him to cash in on a 30 year old. May make us £100 million.

    10 more wins does it

    That really is their cup final. I remember them crowing when they beat us, when we never turned up due to the Man U semi the following week. Oh how they laughed, then got relegated. Shame.

    Coventry City - The CBS Story: In our Coventry Homes (BBC CWR)

    Think anyone who understands the impact of football, particularly having in a Premier League club in our city, makes the actions of Coventry Council over the years really reprehensible. Even taking into account SISU's stances, the Wasps debacle should not be forgotten. This from people who...

    Match Thread Coventry City - Ipswich Town Match Thread - Monday 29th Dec

    Lamps uses round pegs in round holes, which is one of the reasons he has been successful. Playing KKH on the left is a risk, as he has rarely played there. Two full games in three days may be a step too far for Bidders. Depends on flu casualties. Philogene and Clarke play predominantly left...

    Ephron Mason Clark

    The Peterborough owner said that EMC would be the best player in the Championship. This was after we had bought him, not talking up a player to sell. Most players take time to settle. See last seasons change of form for Rudi and BTA. I believe EMC has been battling with niggling injuries since...

    Ephron Mason Clark

    He scored the goal, as you quite rightly pointed out. Also, how unlucky can you get, with the shot that was going in, only to be stopped by Rudi in the way. He was unlucky not to have scored two in the first half.

    Stoke Prices Leaked

    Stoke are slipping at the moment. If the slide continues, I think they may have to go for a cup run, so may well play a trong side.

    Adi

    The players in the main loved Adi. See his interactions with them after matches. Just like Lampard really. Also, how he interacted with his old players from Chelsea days when they played for other teams against us. Evidence JDS going to him after the Boro match away. There will always be...
